Colm

well, I prob could have a go if I buy myself a decent PC - I nearly did it today but PC World had bloody sold out of the one I've had my eyes on for 2 years, and won't be restocking. There's a moral there... :lol:

I understand.

15 is a good match Colm, I didn't expect that much of a crossover between our tastes. *.*

 

Oh yeah CD2 is dropping more BANGAHs than a clumsy butcher.

I love the font you're using. It's close enough to the font they used on some of the 1993 annual series.

Wish I could do stuff like this! :(

You can!!!

Ok, so I have 15 of those.

I had 16 but I took off International Bright Young Thing this morning.

I still haven't decided if I should put Smells Like Teen Spirit on it or not.

Compact disc 2 is :dancing:

An early influence on the trip hop/Enigma type sound of the early 90s?

I don't really get that apart from the percussion but even then I don't think it's unique enough to claim any direct influence. I hear a lot more Jonny Greenwood.

Tori Amos has re-released Under The Pink as a limited 2 record set. It sold out immediately on her website but you can still find it in some of the independent stores if you look hard enough... not sure anyone else aside from Colm will be that interested but it's truly a wonderful album :wub:

Just spotting this now. :lol:

I don't like albums that get re-released on double vinyl. It's so inconvenient to play.

I haven't got as far as deciding what goes where. There's a lot of dance but a good few new age/world music/laid back tracks too.

That edit sounds ok. What do you think is rubbish about it?

You're so right about the KLF making life difficult. I'm having a struggle with Erasure (Chorus/Love to Hate You) and REM(Losing My Religion/Near Wild Heaven).

I've just noticed that radio edit of Human Nature has no middle 8.

It's just verse, prechorus, chorus, verse, prechorus, chorus to fade.

Are you trying to keep disc length to 80:00?

Another slightly easier solution is to work out how much time you have left on the disc and then judiciously trim the 12" version to fit and call it Human Nature (2021 Edit)

can you share the 12" of Human Nature to my Dropbox and send me a link to the 7" YouTube clip so I can use that as a guide - please. And I'll have a go at editing it too.

😁

I was heartbroken when I heard Coming Up.

Where was the seductive, enthralling, intoxicating band that I had fallen in love with 2 years before?

I love it now. It took a long time.

There's always two options if a track can't be found and I have used both.

Firstly, find the higest quality YouTube version and download it from there using a YouTube ripping site. If that sounds good then use it

Secondly, If the quality of the YouTube rip isn't up to standard, use Audacity to edit your longer version using the YouTube rip as a guide. This obviously takes time, patience and a decent ear.

Is there a theme to your 1991 compilation or is a personal Now style comp?

Re-listening to Miracles. It still sounds like Robert Miles produced it. Especially the intro.

This is absolutely one of my favourite Nows. At the time I only really missed Pure Shores. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't included.

I bought it twice. Back in 2000 and then again this year.

The first half of the second disc is possibly the most solid first halves of any Now second disc.

The rules are a bit subjective.

I have to be able to listen to any song that goes on to it - so no Nickelback.

Charity singles, novelty singles are very unlikely to feature. Talent show winners/losers are not all going feature.

It's rare that anyone will appear twice in the same year but if they're featured on others singles they may appear twice.

I am overthinking this. 😁
