ha, this is great. I actually have 40 records pulled out for my own super-extended Escape From Samsara tribute (although mine will be harder). This was actually the first club I ever went to, so I have many fond memories of it too!

you should post this to the 'Did you Escape from Samsara?' Facebook group :)

Just brilliant - just sent to all my friends who  went 98-2001 - everyone discussing their favourites

About three years ago I made a mix from the old records I had at home from the 90s to early 00s. I was happy to essentially archive the best of my collection and a lot of others seemed to like it as well. It got me thinking though about the music at the time that I loved but never actually owned as some tracks were pretty hard to get on vinyl back then and it turns out the digital age has made this a lot easier. 52 tracks in total turned into a running time of about 5 hours so I've split it into two halves. If you wish to join the two then go ahead, I made sure they will fit together again quite easily. Either way I hope you enjoy this collection of music from a time that still means a lot to me today and if I've managed to capture a pinch of the love and the energy from that time here then my work is done. Full Track listing to follow and as always, any comments  or feedback welcomed and big love to all of you who were there in those days whether we knew each other or not
