(As Promised) The Old Skool Ultimix [90s Dance]

As mentioned and much requested here, two mixes of radio-friendly dance music from the 90s. Again, completely out of my ordinary, and again I played that Supereal track, but I never thought I'd be sharing these mixes.

Few things:
1. The track titles are wrong, so Part 1 is Part 2, although the file names are correct.
2. The FTP program gave me some bullshit "Can't upload" message for Part 2 even though the full file looks to be there. Let me know if it cuts off or has problems.
3. I lost Part 2 after a reformat and so this version is the slightly wonky draft extracted from my MP3 player. It has a few problems, mostly EQing, but this is hardly high art so fuck it.

Part 1:
1. Beats International - Dub Be Good To Me
2. Stereo MCs - Connected
3. Stone Roses - Fools Gold
4. The Source feat. Candi Staton - You Got The Love
5. The KLF - 3am Eternal
6. True Faith - Take Me Away
7. Deee-Lite - Groove Is In The Heart
8. K Klass - Let Me Show You Love
9. Black Box - Ride On Time
10. N-Joi - The Anthem
11. U2 - Even Better Than The Real Thing (Perfecto Mix)
12. Utah Saints - Something Good
13. The Shamen - Ebeneezer Good
14. Supereal - United States Of Love (Aorta Mix)
15. Haddaway - What Is Love?
16. Snap! - Rhythm Is A Dancer
17. Praga Khan - Injected With A Poison
18. Altern8 - Activ8 (Hardcore Holocaust Mix)
19. SL2 - On A Ragga Tip
20. Urban Hype - Trip To Trumpton
21. The Prodigy - Out Of Space

Sweet

Haven't heard a problem in Part 2 yet, so I'm guessing that's some software issue

If only I had my car up here and a cd-player. Wold totally have rocked these out for sure


Posted by Magadansky on Nov-23-2009 09:21:

I enjoy some retro style disco/trance/pop whatever so I am all over!


Posted by Quethas on Nov-23-2009 09:47:

These tracks are fun to listen at times. So I'm definately crabbing these!


Posted by Domesticated on Nov-23-2009 10:44:

And you criticised Son of a Gun.


Posted by david.michael on Nov-23-2009 15:09:

Oh heyull yeah.

I can't wait until it gets to that KLF track, I'm in love with that song.

Your arse is really sore over that, isn't it?

To be honest, the only track here I think scales similar heights of cheesy bollocksness is Samba De Janeiro, which I put in because my friends all loved it and this mix was intended for our consumption.

No. I was being mock hurt. I know it's a terrible track - it just brings back great memories for me.

Finally!


Posted by Magadansky on Nov-24-2009 18:59:

I just took a listen to the mp3 with Part 2 in its name and I have a bit mixed feelings. I wasn't very impressed but it wasn't trash either. Enjoyable mix with good gradation but with some strange transitions (I know its old skool but still they didn't sound right) and not any stand out points, at least for me (except What Is Love ofc ). I know its hard to make such a mix but I heard better ones and I hope you will make a better one too, although I have yet to listen to the other part.

I don't remember having so much fun listening to a mix off TA. The mixing is solid and the set never loses it's energy. Love the transitions from mid era trance to classic house to breaks. I've so far listened to this set 5 times and wish it was summer to hear it then

Good job overall!

downloading, feedback later


Posted by DJ Double Threat on Nov-24-2009 21:10:

The transitions kill the flow... not good mixes


Posted by woscar on Nov-24-2009 22:55:

I couldn't download


Posted by Adam420 on Nov-24-2009 23:09:

Oh wow, #2 is going to bring back some memories that's for sure


Posted by SYSTEM-J on Nov-24-2009 23:20:

What's the problem, woscar? Seems to be working for most people.

As for the transitions: the first few on the first part are definitely rudimentary at best, and when you're working with three minute radio tracks you sometimes just have to slam that crossfader. Overall though I don't think the mixing is particularly terrible on either part.


Posted by woscar on Nov-25-2009 00:23:

Not sure, I tried and it kept cutting off at random points. I'm downloading again right now and it seems to be working fine. I'll let you know.


Posted by Mr Game+Watch on Nov-25-2009 03:54:

Well, I downloaded both parts... of course, the second one had much more nostalgic value for me, since nearly every one of those songs were stuff I listened to repeatedly when I got into dance music. I agree with the people who complained about the crossfader slams, it killed the flow a tad... was looking forward to hearing a bit of layering of the different tracks.

I'd say "Ebeneezer Good" was cheesier than "Samba De Janeiro" :P


Posted by SYSTEM-J on Nov-26-2009 00:34:

Yeah, if you're expecting some clever layering then I wouldn't get your hopes up. As I said, these were made for parties, and it was mostly about playing the tunes, not fucking about with them.
