The History Of Pop Part 34 aka We got G like MC who Likes It On An E

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

The poorly-received Now 33 throws up a winner in the form of Terrorvision Pulp - but only by one vote this time from Saint Etienne, then Luniz-Lush-Dubstar in that order. Much anger aimed at Wasis and Cast, and the best Radiohead song seems to be "Just", which is a bit of a shocker.

And now it's ALL CHANGE on Now 34 - this is the first Now that feels 'modern' to me, except I suppose it doesn't now, as the 'era' (in my head) that "Wannabe" kicked off came to an end...when? Well that's another question. Meanwhile - first Spices! first solo Robbie! Peter Andre! Underworld! 2Pac! The riotous return of the do-you-see track sequencer! AND LOTS MORE! Including some real stinkers too, naturally.

is this not the 4/4 'Dex & Jonesey' mix of 'Higher State...', i.e. not the one with the increased bonkers frequency mentalism? still quite good if it is tho

Recording Higher State Of Consciousness: Radio Edit (Dex & Jonesey)

So yes you are right. It is well better than the one on Now32 tho.

absolutely, but neither can touch the original 'Tweekin Acid Funk mix' which is the only one anybody played again after '97 (i didn't hear it for ages after that but there was a little revival of it a couple of years back by numerous DJs inc. Erol Alkan which made me think it was going to be re-released and remixed yet again. actually it probably was for all i really kno!)

This particular mix was a very good jukebox-baiting track ISTR.
