When I first got into breakbeat hardcore Production House was one of the very first labels I attempted to hunt down. I remember falling in love with both of Nino's 12"s, especially"The Gun (I See It Around Me)" despite being a "darkside" devotee. It's blend of sweet vocals and ruff breaks was an absolute joy. I was always shocked that his solo outings were so sparse.
I'd like to add that the "12 single is the only version worth having. It's appearance in compilations (my first taste of it) were severely cropped. On picking up the single I was blown away by it's 8 minute epic Ness. A true hardcore symphony with just so much going on in it. Shame modern era breakbeat hardcore never seems to emulate this.
