When you leave a Toronto nightclub any time after midnight you’re pretty well guaranteed to be bombarded with a flurry of fliers for other events and parties. In the 90′s it was rare to see any event with house music without the names Peter and Tyrone written near or at the top. These guys are some of Toronto’s most prolific, consistently booked resident DJs, and for good reason as this mixtape indicates.
The title is a bit of a misnomer as I personally wouldn’t classify most of the songs as hard house per se – the A side is mostly melodic and the B side is chiefly tech and Chicago style post-disco house. However, there are some truly banging tracks that will not disappoint the most dangerous housers. The mixing is spot-on and obviously handled by a couple of pairs of delicate, skilled hands. These guys get a lot of practise and it shows.
I was optimistic about the great quality of the audio on this tape, but unfortunately I believe the casing is damaged and squeezes inward a bit. This makes the reels very difficult to turn about 3/4 of the way through side B – so much so that my tape player stopped in the same place the 3 times I tried to record it. One time while trying to tighten up the tape by fast-forwarding and rewinding it all the way the tape didn’t disengage from the head and got barfed all over my floor. It’s a darn good thing I have experience with this as it took me a good 10 minutes to gingerly unhook it from the head and respool it with a pencil. The tape is a bit wrinkled but luckily it sounded pristine when I recorded it.

Check out the closet club kid over here.
Quicktime – the only way to unhook it from MP3s in browsers is to uninstall it, I believe. Even Quicktime Alternative does that. Lame, yeah.
I’ll check out DotA this evening. Ping me on Steam.
I love Peter and Tyrone. I believe it is Hard House 7 that is my favourite but I will take whatever I can get. I have House Sessions vol 11 on my PC and that’s it. I had a bunch of their tapes that are no good anymore. If you have anymore or know where I can get my hands on them, please let me know. This is fantastic!!!!!
I use to hear them at the comfort zone in Toronto. Awesome thank you for putting it up.
Who else sounds like them? Please let me know
Ahh, the Comfort Zone. When a 9pm-7am rave isn’t entertaining enough you can always check out the Zone to fill your Sunday with sketchy goodness. At least I think you can – I heard the city was trying to shut it down.
It’s not easy to find this style of Chicago/hard house, or at least I’m not the person to ask, unfortunately. I love these guys’ tapes and I’ll be sure to rip the one or two others I’ve got somewhere. Stay tuned, and subscribe to my RSS feed for automatic updates whenever I rip a new tape.
You might try Chris Sheppard’s Pirate Radio Sessions Vol. 1 if you’re down with the classic house.
thanks for sharing this! I use to own this tape and lost it and have been looking for a copy/link for it for years! thanks again!
I used to work with Peter and Tyrone back in the day when we ran Back2Basic at Aria….. I had the pleasure of growing up to these guys…They are TRUE LEGENDS…
