Nice! I was just reading an article on R&S circa '93 from an old CD compilation I bought around then called "Trace Europe Express".

Old school techno makes me quiver with delight!

looks very interesting...
looking forward to this one. the info about each track was a nice touch. saves me the trouble of looking into them myself

damn! looks sweet. I'm always up for a little techno history lesson.
I'll have to download a copy next time I'm on.
(btw Gerald, never got that acid mix of yours. I had to bounce to Oz before it came in the mail )

Fantastic man!


Of those records, Joey Beltram – Energy Flash and The Aphex Twin – Digeridoo, both of which are fabulous.

Thx for the mix.

I was listening to this on the bus this morning, and I thought I might shoot right out of my skin.

wicked and again wicked!

 

[The Truth]

I remember R&S used to be the top techno label in the early/mid 90s..then it all went downhill when Sony bought a piece of them.. Derrick May was also supposed to produce an album for them..

 

[oddmyth]

I'm pretty sure it was just Sony Japan that had a piece of R&S and that didn't last very long. There was still a tonne of great stuff that came out on R&S after the Sony relationship began.

I was very excited when i first thought about of the idea!

When it came down to recording the mix after taking such a long time to get all the info together - it was more of 'just get the damn thing done' feeling. I was contemplating listening to all the records and figuring out which records went best with which (since i hadn't listened to most of these records in a heck of a long time.) Then i stopped and thought 'Awww f**kit!!', and away i went!

Cheers!
