A couple of tracks from the vaults

Well, not really the vaults; my CD-R binder. I must have loved these tracks a lot back in the day, as I've never really ripped much to CD. Back then I had access to a proper turntable, so they sound pretty good. I've also de-clicked them and adjusted the EQ to make them some pristine.

Andrez Mendez "Bring Me Love (Mad Boy mix)" - 1996
This is a Mark Picchiotti remix and although his boat has definitively sailed for me, and most people would probably consider the Frankie Knuckles mix as the definitive mix, this version is a very different take that has its merits. Dark and hypnotic, I think it's a pretty great effort. If only I could get my hands on the (very rare) CD...

Have a listen below or download the track here (21MB).


Ty Brunson "All Of Me (Mount Rushmore´s Ol Jersey Vibe)" - 1995
I love love love this remix. A massively overlooked, pretty hysterical track that really deserves to be available on digital, especially as the label - Dance 2 Records - still exists (although they seem to be more into DJ equipment hire these days).

My current set-up is rubbish for ripping vinyl, and frankly the other mixes of Ty Brunson weren't up my alley anyway. Sorry...
