Asia Blue - Connect - 06-Jun-08 04:13 AM
For house lovers, skip the first disc, it is the second one that contains the awesome CJ Mackintosh dubs, with the typical 'FXTC' piano-with-heavy-bass with vocal snippets sound he developed around 1992 with respected remixes for Dina Carroll, Sabrina Johnston, Janet Jackson or The Sounds of Blackness (to name the most popular ones), and that would continue to caress our ears until the late 90s, with its commercial peak in 1994. A mix of Lil Louis on the French Max Party radioshow in November 1992 contained the Mack Dub, but it took years before people, desperate to ID it, knew what Lil Louis was playing!

'Song Of Dawn' sounds heavily inspired, if not almost a remix of 1991's TZ-2 release 'Deep Down', using the exact same organ instrument and sequence, plus the same bassline and percussion.
Kathy Sledge - Good Times (Dubs) - 12-Apr-07 02:42 PM
Extremely rare record, never commercially released, despite lots of airplay by the known DJs when this test pressing came out, and explained by Roger Sanchez on his website: "dea006 was done when narcotic was based in the uk..the subsequent , tragic death of my manager & label partner , marts andrups, forced me 2 move it back 2 new york, where we began the label again with deany as the catalogue#..unfortunate that we couldn't get those promos out..the masters got caught in the legal dissolution of the uk label. believe me, it sucked! r." The "S-Man's Vocal remix" of this tune was released later on bootleg.
Don Carlos - Mediterraneo - Club Favourites Collection '90/98 - 16-Jan-07 06:06 AM
Great CD which is sadly ruined by a too agressive sound compression during CD re-mastering, resulting in audible distortion of the bass on a good soundsystem with some tracks. The original vinyl releases were mastered without compression resulting in a clearer undistorted sound than this CD re-issue, which is a shame considering the quality of the tracks.
Various - Nude Tempo One - 25-Jul-04 10:20 PM
indeed a superb CD, but a real shame they never released an unmixed vinyl edition, or even just a vinyl sampler with those tracks which are clearly unavailable anywhere else (like Lisa Shaw's flabbergasting "Ultimate High"). They DID release Blue Six "Love Yourself (Vincenzo & Basti Remix)" later on vinyl on the "Bare Essentials Two" 2x12, while this track wasn't even on Bare Essentials 2 mixCD! So if they really wanted to, they could do it...
