This is possibly my favorite mixed tape by Ron D Core. An acid lovers dream, this mix is a journey across acid house, trance, techno and hardcore with the common thread being that lovely silver box.

This is the first of the “Love Core” mixed tape series, entitled “Vinyl Meltdown”, by Ron D Core & Louis Love. This tape was released in 1994 and didn’t come with a track list. I’ve compiled one to the best of my ability (read: memory) but there are still some gaps and easy IDs to be had on this one. I know a few of you will probably beat everyone else to the ID punch. You know who you are…

I love the cover for this tape and I’m guessing it’s a Fresh Jive design. Correct me if I’m wrong.
