WHAT JASON DAVIES OF THE MIXBUSTERS HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS MIX:
For whatever reason, in March 1989, Steve & I decided to get together for one last swansong Mixbusters mix. This was done at the DMC studio and is a 16-track mix utilising the Atari ST 520 with Pro-24 sequencer... woo hoo! So basically we had tried doing remixes (effectively trying to emulate Ben Leibrand) and basically failed miserably. So we thought, "if we had a 16-track at home, how would we do a true Mixbusters mix?" Well this is the result. This is Beatbox... Mixbusters style!!
TRACKS I CAN IDENTIFY IN THE MIX - I have only listed the ones that have prolonged elements or have a short sample repeated multiple times:
Alan Parsons Project - The Fall Of The House Of Usher Prelude (1976); Art Of Noise - Close (To The Edit) (1984); Art Of Noise - Beat Box (1984); Loose Ends - Hangin' On A String (Contemplating) (1985); Simply Red - The Right Thing (1987); Super Lover Cee & Casanova Rud - I Gotta Good Thing (1988); Skipworth & Turner - Thinking About Your Love (1985); Mike & Brenda Sutton - Don't Let Go Of Me (Grip My Hips And Move Me) (1982); Bobby Brown - My Prerogative (1988); S.O.S. Band - Just Be Good To Me (1983); Fatback Band - Party Time (1975); Nona Hendryx - Why Should I Cry? (1987); Donald Byrd - Change (Makes You Want to Hustle) (1975); Bruce Hornsby & The Range - The Way It Is (1986); Art Of Noise with Max Headroom - Paranoimia (1986); Art Of Noise - Dragnet (1987); Art Of Noise featuring Tom Jones - Kiss (1988)
