From dnba:

 

While links had been forged with Fabio and Bryan Gee, alongside longtime friends Clarky and DJ Regulate (who would all regularly cut his new offerings), one of [Dillinja's]first major breaks was...

 

I've got a hunch it's another person who Dillinja engineered for, like that Vinyl Addiction single that sounds exactly like him...

Equinox backs up my hunch, and if ever there were a man who knows his old skool dillinja, it's Equi!

 

If you've got someone you think knows his old skool Dilly, have him listen to this clip for me: Ron 8. It desperately needs an ID and it sure does sound like Dillinja. :mrgreen:

i can confirm that regulate was dillinja on the hardleaders releases,as to wether dj regulate is dillinja ...that question is still open

DJ Regulate is the same Regulate who was on Hardleaders. The tunes on Hardleaders were 100% engieneered by Dillinja, but I do not think that he was actually Regulate

 

Fuck knows though. This one is still confusing :(

right pretty sure dillinja is regulate now , i have 7 flyers saying the same dj regulate (dillinja). warning in cambridge i think, dubshack (northern version of bluenote at the time . 3 separate flyers for different raves at claction pier.and i think the other two are either desire or one nation all from 95-96 period. i know its a boring subject now but its got to be him , too much evidence otherwise but i'm no doubt wrong again and will get corrected.

but no disrespect

 

who is JJ and is his information correct?

 

I know that "brotherhood" by regulate on hardleaders was played on kiss fm by randall or rider back in the day when it was made - and was announced on air as being by dillinja - that plate sounds so much like dillinja that it's clear he's had input in the production at least.

Why does it matter who I am?? :P :D

 

The information is correct and isn't just a guess. It was taken from an interview with Clarky in early 96 where he talks about tunes he has made. His comments make it clear that Dillinja and DJ Regulate are different people. I've checked online tonight and found this interview that confirms this:

 

".....alongside longtime friends Clarky and DJ Regulate (who would all regularly cut his new offerings)"

I agree with JJ on this one. Like I said I used to listen to Regulate DJ on the radio and I was always sure that he wasn't Dillinja, they even mentioned on the show that the tunes were engineered by Dillinja but were by Regulate.

 

The tunes on Hardleaders do sound exactly like Dillinja, you're right. But, then again, so do tunes "made" by Bert but everyone agrees that he's a different artist!

I think that Regulate = Lemon D.

 

I've read before that Lemon D's early stuff was engineered by Dillinja (I think it says that in the Metalheadz Platinum Breakz CD booklet) and i've heard that they were next-door neighbours for a while... If it was Lemon D under an alias, it would fit with the fact that Regulate used to bigup Dillinja on the radio for the engineering and stuff...

 

Also...

 

I remember DJ Bailey once played an amen tune on his 1Xtra show and couldn't remember what it was called. He said it was an old track by Lemon D on Hardleaders which he couldn't remember the name of (he used to put stickers over the names on the labels back then to hide the titles). It turned out to be this: http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/hardleaders/hl03 Despite forgetting what it was, he knows Lemon D well so probably remembers the tune was by him but any knowledge of it being under an alias must have been forgotten because he would have mentioned that it was an old Regulate track, as opposed to a Lemon D one.

 

:think:
