hugopal The wink was to suggest there was my answer. Disc 2 it turns out now I know to what mix we are referring.

    hugopal Galaxy - The Island (Vedra Mix) was originally down to be played. He also wanted to use Donner Sumner - I Will go with You (Club 69 Trippy Dub) but it didn’t get cleared

        Just went and listened to both of thhese and 2 things come to mind.

        1. Why TF would anyone not want to have their track on a GU mix, which at the time were HUGE. That pretty much guarantees immortalisation of a track.

        2. The correct track was played there. Perception is miles better than either of these. Then again, that may be due to point 1 above.

            Yeah it’s the Donna Summer track I remember reading about. Thank fuck that didn’t get included.

            I’m not sure I’d heard before about the Galaxy track also being mooted. It’s a cool track, but also a bit upbeat for what is the otherwise consistently dark and moody disc 2. It’s also just not as memorable as Perception.

              hugopal it was some female vocal number

              …have you heard it? It’s hardly a full-vocal garage track 😆

              …immortalisation for the (however many progheads) that bought it (and still dissect it ad nauseam on here), but let’s be honest, most people will never have heard about it. Kinda understandable that Donna Summer didn’t feel she needed a career boost from a fairly niche mix album.

                    Unbroken1 Sure. To be fair, I was referring more to the Galaxy track than the Donna Summer track. But point taken.

                      Unbroken1 …have you heard it? It’s hardly a full-vocal garage track 😆

                      Yeah of course I checked it out.

                      Sure, but the disco influence still seems inescapable. It sounds like it belongs more on Tenaglia London. It would have derailed the mix almost as much as “I’m Free” derails San Fran disc 1.

                        Still have no idea what he was thinking with I’m Free on San Fran, lol

                          We are thoroughly IN THE WEEDS now

                            Welcome xs2man. Never mind Hugo, he’s waiting on his psychological results and he gets a bit anxious.

                            Old-Dutch Apart from it being a gargantually massive tune?

                              ScottBailey Yeh, the Donna Summer track makes sense. Hugo has no taste so we can safely ignore anything he says on this bar what track was played when and if it was spelled correctly.

                                  Bit unfair. Think he made a whole album, probably knows a bit.

                                      I guess I’ll just stick a couple self promotion materials in here to kick things off I guess, and to let people understand my style.

                                      First off, I am playing on Mixpub tonight: https://mixpubradio.mixlr.com/ covering for @ArchimedesQ while he wines and dines his Mrs. So that’ll kick off at 1900 GMT.

                                      Next up, released today is my Tracks of 2024 for 21CPH on Facebook. I do a quarterly mix for them there where the group vote for their favourite tracks over each Quarter of the year. This time, for the end of year mix I took the top 5 voted tracks from each Quarter and mixed them together to creat the “mix of the year”.

                                      Here that is:
