You guys on about the Marky & Bungle Remix of Funktion, or one that they've done?

 

it's an alternate, unreleased mix from the time of the original. there were a couple of versions floating around on plate at the time.

I would like to see Optical - What's The Difference

come out. Or Optical - Unknown [09/97 #2]. . ("...listen listen listen...")

or Optical - Unknown [09/97 #1] (I submitted those to P2B you see...)

 

But especially Optical - Unknown [09/97 #1].

That song is mental. Really grimey

Edited - got the track numbers the wrong way around...

I know its old now but was going thru some old atm mags and on the dj fierce and the ed rush and optical dj playlists it says "to shape the future - optical & fierce remix " and fierce plays it on a kool fm tape I have around erly 2002 so i'll take that as the official title for that vip mix then?

What about putting teh tapes somewhere? Im a big fan of Virus/No U-Turn crew and would like to have more their mixes (i think their mixing tekneek is rather elite).

where's that sample from?

 

this tune: "Loxy & Ink (feat. J Dub) - Killasin (Silver Surfer)"

 

Has the same sample, bad tune B-)

 

I always thought it was something Prince from his dodgy-weird "The Black Album" but I think someone once told me it was from the film Juice

Optical - What's The Difference? (Prototype) ("what's the difference between a killer and any one of us?" sample)

actually, thinking about it... 'they' may have told me it was from 'Menace 2 Society'.

 

However I found a link that suggests it may have come from 'Kalifornia'. check:

Would love to see "Dom & Optical - Quadrant 6 [Fierce & Optical Dub Mix]" released , such a quality dark roller !

 

Am actually quite gutted I heard this tune now, cuz I know were never gonna be able to buy it, mix it...and generally show off to people such a quality tune !!

 

Sickening :(

 

Like the "sonar" (monkeys) tune all over, the version that is out, is OK (ace, but compared to the other mixes) , but the 3 other versions are immense ...and we'll never hear or see them in there full glory !!!

 

Just like BMW bringing out a better version of the M5 and saying nah ....no-one can buy it , just listen to it pur !!

Reference tracklist: http://www.essentialmix.nu/index.php?modname=tracklistings&op=view&id=290

 

Just to edit, couple of corrections. I don't know what those two Optical tunes are, however I've noticed yet another track of his in the mix not noticed by anyone else - as known, "Whats The Difference" is unreleased.

 

That Peshay tune is not the "Jazz Lick" released on Nexus! I've wanted to know about this one for ages, although I dont rate it that much. Its worth noting it has the same sax solo as another of his that was on dub around that time - i.e. Manfesto - Find Me (Peshay Remix)

(eventually released here: SCAM2).

 

I see the original 'official' tracklisting attributes this to Metalheadz, I wonder what ever happened to this? Fabio & Grooverider were playing it for months!

 

 

Do you still want clips? - I can do them right now if required

 

EDIT: Peshay tune is The Quartet - Nevada
