I've decided to post up the 30 minute electro mix I was working on in its incomplete state. Its a bit rough around the edges, but its listenable... I've just added added a couple of tracks to the begining and end to pad it out. It kinda ruins the flow... If I get more time to spend on it, I'll make it better..

Anyway, I still remember when I found my first Street Sounds Electro records in a Penzance junk shop around the age of 16... I'd never heard anything like it - well I recognised Rocket by Herbie Hancock. This was around the time I started DJ'ing "Big Beat" and these records would fit right in... Tracks like Twilight 22, Captain Rock, Aleem... Awesome Stuff!

This is a mix of some of my favourite tracks, some of which I've only recently come across. I believe they might be a tiny bit less obvious than you staple standards such as Cybotron's Clear or Al Naafiysh ( A Classic). Correct me If I'm wrong.

I wanted to keep it upbeat (It was meant to be something I could listen to down the gym !). Some tracks just wouldn't stretch that well and had to be left out, which is a shame. It cruises along at a steady 132bpm (roughly)

I wasnt around when these records came out, neither do I have an encyclopedic knowledge of the genre. So if some of these records are considered a bit naff, I dont care. I like them.

Sound quality varies, as you can imagine... And none of them seem to stick to a solid BPM, so were a nightmare to edit together... Like a fool I edited by hand, time stretching the tracks a few fx and sound fx too. No Ableton.. Perhaps that would make it a lot easier??
