Public Domain in general

Well with the release of the chart hit Operation Blade I thought that i would take a look around and see if I could get my hands on any of their other work well to say the least I was suprised to hear that they had an album so I ordered a copy to see what it was like. suprisingly it was only released in July 2001 but how is that i thought considering just how long Operation blade had actually been around. Well after forking out my £11.99 I took it away to listen to and then discovered what i think at least is the reason why. The album itself looks like what you would expect from a group that you would believe were hardhouse until you play ...  Read the complete review

I really dont care what anyone else thinks about public domains recent success as they are only basing their opinion on chart success, yet operation blade was a huge track to bring in on the dance floor and it still is! rock da funky beat their latest song and has not done as well in the charts as operation blade, yet in my view it is on the same par! public domain offer a truely spinetingling live performance! they really did rock the crowd with their performance at gatecrasher NEC not long ago. They played about 6 songs all from the hard hop series which i am proud to say I have on vinyl! such as let me clear my throat which is absolutely wicked! just a latin ...  Read the complete review

To date public domain have released one record 'bass in the place' (operation blade). This record incorporates a well known public enemy sample with a pounding bass line and an acidy melody to come up with a club and chart hit. After a few months 'doing it' in the clubs on import (dos or die records) and a few setbacks due to licensing the sample, it was released on extravaganza records and got to number 1 in the uk singles chart.

This success prompted a lot of soundalike records, for example, the warp brothers - i will survive, a record that sounded a lot like josh wink - higher state of ...  Read the complete review

Why does everyone dis' Public Domain? They make great tunez that are alwayz buzzin' in you head, even on a wednesday. Public Domain is a team of six people, and Mark Sherry is the lead DJ of the group. Their songs are mint, their songs are mainly Hard Dance tunez, which have a tough beats and Killer Basslines.

Taken fom Hard House ...  Read the complete review

Bass In The Place was a huge success, and almost every dj caned it beyond belief. It made its way onto several compilation cd's. That single was played so much.. like zombie nation was in the summer, and now some people would call it 'cheese'. Its just like any dance release thats over played, it was good while it lasted but thats about it. I'll also mention another single that Public Domain released, on vinyl anyway - 'rock the funky beats'. I've only listened to it a few times so I can't really comment on it. But I see public domain as a 'group' (dj's?) that are only in it for the money. ...  Read the complete review
