^^^the vsn you were thinking of?

tbh i dont know if the one i put on is "la version francaise"--does someone who didnt download this on slsk/youtube figure out which version is which

it's la version francaise from classic balearic mastercuts, ie. the correct mix, in the zip file. where's lucky star?? i do like the wee bit of derrick may's sueno latino remix at the start of mandy smith though.

ya most of this is slsk compiled so there are some tracks w/ mix-in and mix-out and a couple at not great bitrates, sorry!

anyway thx for clearing it up--ive just checked on my home computer, the mp3 is version francaise

i think deej is confused b/c lucky star samples chris rea?

yes

also because it appears to be the dub of version francais ... there are no vocals!!

kinda boring imo, when i hear the instrumental it just sounds like its about to become lucky star and then it doesnt

btw totally love that mandy smith track ... what version is that? way better than this

i do like the wee bit of derrick may's sueno latino remix at the start of mandy smith though.

i assumed that was e2-e4 :-p

thats bizarre i could have sworn my mp3 had vocals! i must have been listening to it on a mix recently or something? because it was stuck in my head all last week.

:P deej u dumbass there are vocals, around 2:20

Thanks for this!

I fell asleep drunk waiting for this to d/l last night which wasn't good. I hate waking up at half six to the glow of a computer monitor.

deej its the cool and breezy jazz mix

i actually have a version of that w/out the mix-in, ill upload in a sec

i need to clean out my itunes :-/

i also have a longer version of why if you guys want it

hook me up

captain of her heart video full of babes

that mandy smith track has grown on me. i wish it didn't make think of bill wyman though

not just of bill wyman, of bill wyman fucking a 13 year old

thanks for this max. it is awesome.

i assumed that was e2-e4 :-p

that :-p should be a :-/ cos it's definitely sueno latino and i'm pretty sure it's the mayday mix. stop getting things rong deej ;-)

:P deej u dumbass there are vocals, around 2:20

?????????????? tell me youre fucking w/ me now

like im rewinding back and forth over 2:20 and i am not hearing rea's voice at all

OK theres vocals briefly at 4:06

dude there's something weird w/ this mp3 for real
i swear when i played it yesterday there were no vocals, and it last 5:38. Now its past 6:00 and there are vocals

WHATS GOING ON

i feel like when i was a kid and someone put those candles that don't blow out on my cake

i think i've figured out that what happens is no matter where i skip ahead on the progress bar the song isn't actually skipping ahead

yeah basically anytime i try to skip ahead in the song it pretends it has skipped ahead in the program but the mp3 itself doesnt skip, so every time i listened around 2:20 or wherever else it was still playing it from the beginning thus giving me the impression i had a 6 min. long instrumental reminiscent of 'lucky star'

ok wtf is up w/ richie havens singing "its not black, its not white!" in 'back to my roots'? sounds really funny for some reason, like he's explaining why he can cover lamont dozier's song

Technical question re: iTunes and track lengths

Oh wait, not the same thing, never mind.

yeah deej i think its a corrupted file or something

hook me up

when i get home from work i will UL
also im not positive but i think i have a longer version of 'city lights' too

i listened to "state of independence" about 34598340954 times on the way to work today

amazed "elle et moi" isn't on that top 25 list

kind of amazed that sebastien tellier is

i think that song is pretty good...until he starts singing

oh i like the song a lot, and the singing, it just seems really out of place

what other slightly silly "balearic" songs should I be playing at my projected b'day party in may? apart from "Stop Bajon" and "Like an Eagle" and "Life In A Northern Town" and the Larry Levan edit of "Maneater" and "Midnight Man" and "Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes" and "Stranger in the City"...?

MEXICO

love that song

i know you've heard it already, but i cant get enough

state of independence! gino soccio's "dancer"! dennis wilson! bobby caldwell! anything from this thread: POLICE POLL (may be too silly)!

the terje edit of MJ's "i can't help it"
