*TAKEN FROM A C-90 CASSETTE*
the story behind this mix is jakko [not the chimp loving dead popstar but one of the instigators of the splosh! parties asked all the residents to record a mix.
mixes were recorded by neil macey, justin sparrey and myself.
jakko's instructions were that it should be a 'one take' job e.g. go home, insert c90 tape in recorder and mix until both sides of tape were done.
the tapes were then copied at a copying factory in birmingham with the intention of selling the tapes at parties, shops, etc, to generate funds for the splosh! soundsystem.
unfortunately, the west mercia constabulary stuck their hooters in and all the tapes were confiscated [amongst other things].
as far as i know only a few of the tapes ever made it out into the world.
my mix was recorded at the peak of my 'proggy acidic techno house' phase and shows how splosh! was not just a deep house outfit [regardless of what some might say].
i can't remember most of the track names but it does start with 3 versions of 'de niro' by the disco evangelists mixed together and includes 50hz by capricorn, 'pro-deux' by rob acid and brum's own 'all funked up' by mother [lee fisher] and it finishes with the acapella of 'confusion' by new order.
anyway, here it is, lumpy, crunchy and bumpy and apparently martin duffy's FAVOURITE EVER MIX BY ANYONE! i'm not worthy, i'm not worthy........
