About the CD:
Another CD to be added to the classic series. Again coming from the most excellent mix mag series. This one features Danny Rampling, who played a massive part in my house education thanks to not only the seminal 'Love Groove Dance Party' show on Radio 1 (Saturday nights) but also his quintessential British and Balearic style of house. You were indeed... my favourite UK dj for a good few years. Both mixes have a vibe which feels fresh and original but still high on energy and get pretty full on pretty quick. Kind of latin, kind of techno... it's a great 2 mixes here which may have flew under many people's radar. Enjoy.

099 - Havin' It In Ibiza 'Volume 1 94-95' mixed by Alex P (1994)

retake on my own track "DO IT Come oN" , 2 2023 composed originally!

New Sound [remake]

This is one of my favourite tapes from the Kaos nights @ Leeds Warehouse back in 1991. Anyone who knows this mix will probably agree that the tunes were amazing, tune selection great but some of the mixing was a little sketchy...... :)

Well after finding all the tracks, searching for 27 years, i have finally done a full retake of the tape. I have kept it as close to the original as possible, copying nearly all of the mixes exactly, apart from a few where they went out of bar.

The quality obviously makes this more enjoyable as some of the recordings back then weren't the best. 

I think all the mixes were done by Steve Williams and Mike Pickering on the night, not sure about Sasha. 

Enjoy :-)
