In late 2012, french producer Onra and Lexis, founder of Music Is My Sanctuary, got together in Montreal and recorded a mix inspired by a period that was really influential for both: mid-90’s R&B club classics.
Vol.1 was so well received that they decided to keep the concept going for a few other chapters focusing on deeper, hard to find cuts.
The idea behind the theme was actually much more precise than 90’s R&B as a whole. The Throw Em Up mixes refer specifically to the sound of ’93 to ’96 which followed New Jack Swing and predated the jiggy era.
