High Side Infantry - High Chant / Contact - 1995


12" - 1995 - High Side Records 


Here is another very hard to find 12" released in 1995 by the Brooklyn-based crew High Side Infantry. The wax is composed of the tracks "High Chant" on the A-side and "Contact" on the B-side, both produced by Moose and co-produced by Sin Deep.



No informations about this group on the internet, so let me bring you some ... High Side Infantry was a crew from Park Slope, Brooklyn which was consisted of 4 MCs named Sin Deep, Excell, Rags, B-Y, and 1 Producer named Mike Moose. Everything began for the group in the early 90s with Sin Deep and Excell who ran together. Rags and B-Y who also lived in the same neighborhood were added, and in the late '93, Moose was introduced to them through a mutual friend called Wor Whosane. 

High Side Infantry had other members affiliated like Strange, Blunt, Lochness from Splattahouse, Draz & Ced (RIP) from Mega Vibes, Wor Whosane, the legendary PH a.k.a Pumpkinhead (RIP) and War Bixby from The Speedknotz who also appears on the track "Contact".



Unfortunately there isn't another wax dropped by this crew after that one because High Side Infantry had no management and couldn't get deal that wasn't a ripoff. From what I know, they had other 8 songs recorded but they lost the dats and reels ...
