Wiccan harvest time refers to the special time of year in the Wiccan religious calendar when witches and practitioners of Wicca gather to celebrate and give thanks for the abundance of the Earth. This time is also known as the harvest festival or the Wiccan holiday of Mabon. Typically falling around the autumn equinox, which occurs in late September, the Wiccan harvest time is a celebration of the changing seasons and the transition from summer to autumn. It is a time to honor the bountiful harvest and the fruits of the Earth, expressing gratitude for the sustenance and abundance that nature provides. During this period, Wiccans often perform rituals and ceremonies that focus on giving thanks, offering prayers, and reflecting on the cycle of life and death. The harvest theme is central during this time, symbolizing the cycle of planting, growth, and harvesting that occurs in nature.

Mighty Dub Katz - Magic Carpet Ride (1995)

This was Fatboy Slim (Norman Cook) & G-Money as The Mighty Dub Katz. WKTU used to play this a lot in 1996. The Ulti edit is my favorite version. I used to find it funny back then because parts of song sounded like a combination of chicken and rapid sex LOL. The song contains a sample of Chakachas' recording "Yo Soy Cubano" from 1970, and Sandee's recording "Notice Me" from 1988.

In KTU's year end chart of 1996, it came in at number 52.

I was a big fan of this then and I still love it now. It's amazing how Norman took so few vocal samples from the Notice The House Acapella version of Sandee's "Notice Me" and made this with it. You have most certainly heard bits and pieces of this acapella in other Dance and House tracks throughout the years.

But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for the murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolators, and all liars their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone. Behold, I am coming soon. I am the alpha and the omega. The first and the last. The beginning and the end.

One of my all-time favorite 90s house/dance records. I heard this song a lot on B96 (both in the mixes and on regular rotation) back then. However, I didn't know this was Fatboy Slim until much later (I'm more used to his late 90s/early 2000s material such as "The Rockerfeller Skank").

Overall, the Wiccan harvest time is a meaningful and festive period for Wiccans to come together and celebrate the blessings of the Earth. It serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of all living beings and the importance of gratitude, balance, and harmony in our lives..
