Stardust - Music Sounds Better With You

WORLDSPIN, Jun 12, 2009

Funniest thing I know about this particular edition of the record , seeing as it was the very first pressing - A French guy called Sebastian, drove thousands of copies over to London from France, the minute they were released from the pressing plant. He managed to be the first person to arrive with them, and sold them (I think for cash) to the likes of eagerly awaiting distributors as Amato / Prime etc.
With the proceeds, he treated himself to a spanking new Range Rover.
The next day, presumably after his long into the night victory celebrations, he was pulled over for drink driving, and later lost his license. At some considerable loss, the car had to be sold.
And the moral of this story? None, it just makes me laugh when I think about it! Maybe, it was "Fate" at work, just like the sample.

Hats off to Braxe, Diamond, Bangalter, Chakas producer Arif Mardin, and the original uncredited star of the show - guitar player / sample creator Hiram Bullock.
In the cumbersome days of frantic first-to-the-post vinyl distribution, only a handful of dance tracks ever created such a universal buzz as this, and for many djs, it still guarantees business on dancefloors worldwide. Stardust Indeed!
