Cargo Records

Sensation

The first in Rush Hour’s official series of Trax reissues, highlighting the seminal label’s more obscure and overlooked titles. First up is a landmark house record - certainly not the first house record, but a very important release all the same, as this was produced by the legendary Ron Hardy, one of the most influential DJs at the birth of the style, who was instrumental in shaping the (Chicago) house sound.

This EP was originally issued in 1985 and is one of the earliest Trax releases (TH 109). It remains one of the hardest to hunt down and most in-demand, with copies changing hands for over 100 dollars. Even the late 90s repress commands high value, while the original limited edition white vinyl pressing is beyond the reach all but the most deep-pocketed collectors. Now available again in its full remastered glory, with the first 300 copies on white wax in tribute. Features long, short, and dub mixes.
