To be honest, we should probably rename Hydro (old) as Hydro, and the newer Hydro as Hydro (2).

 

I personally feel this is the right way to go - why should the first person to use the name be forced to have (old) tagged to them when the name has been re-used by someone more recently?

Agree on the (old) thing. I think we should list them sequentially (where possible) First person to use it gets the original name and then any subsequent people get (2) etc.

 

Obviously there might be instances where this isn't a good idea where a very big artist shares the name of someone who released one track a few years before them

I believe that on the CD it doesn;'t say its a mix at all, and only the vinyl release indicates its a different version, on which I do believe it states "VIP Mix".

 

I believe the tune should be credited to Metalheads, along with "You And Me", "Inner City Life", "Jah" and many others which all saw original releases with the Metalheads artist moniker.

 

I'm certain I addressed this and many other related things in my post here:

But, as yet, no progress or feedback from any one else here... :sleep:

Yeah, I thought this had been dealt with before but couldn't find that thread.

 

Don't worry man, it will get dealth with but that's a lot of changes to go through and needs some serious work...hence being put on the back burner for the time being

Here's an interesting one:

The London Steppers release http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/candidate/cat006

 

is actually two Omni Trio tracks! "Nu Grooves" is the same as the Shadow release, although the "Thru The Vibe" is a slightly different version. "Thru The Vibe (London Steppers Mix)" anyone?

I had been thinking about that recently. The problem is that London Steppers is Omni Trio and that's just the name that Rob haigh went by before singing to Shadow.

 

THey are the same tracks but the artist is different. I think this might be on of the ocassions where they should just be left as different artists. It's going to get too confusing and different from what's on the labels if we do this for absolutely everything that's slightly incorrect, I think.

 

Not sure what others think on this matter

Thats not quite true. Rob Haigh was already signed to MS.............

 

I think that artist names on the tracks should be changed -

after all, London Steppers could still be listed as the artist name for the EP release.

 

This is implementable, yes?

here's one

 

 

the original version on these two releases should be

 

1.8.7 - rock the party

 

 

cd - http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/jungle_sky/js140

 

12 " - http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/jungle_sky/js138

 

 

 

the song was also included on a soul slinger mix cd - http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/jungle_sky/jsk142

 

the version on the cd is labelled as

 

1.8.7. & Drunken Hoodlumz - Rock The Party (Layin' Low)

 

just listened to the mix cd and its listed on the cd like this beacuase the o.g. rock the party is played w/ layin' lowe by the drunken hoodlumz scratched and then teased over top

 

 

make sense??

JM001 Aladdin Mashed 1995

SMDCD112 Aladdin Mashed 1995

HFCD46 Aladdin Mashed (Exclusive VIP Mix)

 

These are all the same track. I think that the VIP bit should be taken off.

 

Mashed is actually a remix of Mash Up Yer Know, from what I remember. I guess the VIP bit is referring to that?
