x-post otm dig up some classics CC and Laurent....these comps are ultra crossover, it should be the quintessential Detroit techno mix by two uber-canonical legends, not this modest comp of nods....

Was The Kings of Disco supposed to be titled The Kings of Danceable Funk and Soul Made Before, During, and Just a Little Bit After the Bee Gees Went Disco (Along With Some Straight-Up Disco)?

this one too:
http://www.discogs.com/label/Retroactive
and y'all forgot about this guy:
http://www.discogs.com/release/65140
And it just occured to me that I really want Just Another Chance by Reece on this comp.

they DO repress retroactive stuff, don't they? or are those bootlegs? you see the vinyl on the internet once in a while, usually around the same time as when the buzz stuff gets repressed ... bootlegs, right?

My guess is that those Retroactive records are bootlegs because you never see any of those records coming through submerge. I wasn't even aware that those records were getting the bootleg treatment.
Also, this is another one of those old Detroit comps that doesn't get enough love:

I love how Discogs.com is like the new allmusic.com for dance dorks.

agree about incognito - some great records including two of my favourite ever reese releases.

"club scam ii", "iconoclastic diaries" and "mood music for the moody" were incredible, though.

There's a simpler solution: MPTrim works entirely in the MP3 data realm so there isn't additional sound degradation from encoding/decoding. Its useful for trimming down silent or excessive intros/outros for tidy CDRs.
That said, you'll need Audacity or the likes to do proper crossfades.

From an email:NOTE: PROMO YOU HAVE [see tracklist above] IS NOT THE FINISHED CD
FINISHED CD will be a double mix CD featuring
PROMO features a selection of tracks featured on those mixes many of which are out of print and hard to get.
Not from email:
NOT ideal for people who know everything

i've warmed to this comp quite a bit ... "track selection and mission of a comp called kings of techno?" questions aside, they do a real nice job with the mixing and the track selection is tight

like i would not consider selling it

This comp introduced me to D.I.E - "Get Up" which is amazing. I used to spin it regularly (slowed down a bit).
