Double LP version. From 1989 onwards, Richard Sen was an obsessive collector of house and techno music, frequenting legendary London record shops such as Fat Cat, Silverfish, Trax, and Red Records. He took record buying trips to New York to find second-hand disco, house and techno 12"s, which were lying around in bargain bins. The selection for this compilation is his own personal favorites from that era. Back then, electronic dance music was young, innocent and fun; it hadn't been analyzed, theorized, and fragmented into the multi-genre industry it is today. What you hear on this compilation reflects what he was playing at that time; joining the dots between ambient, techno, tribal house, breakbeat and early trance productions from the UK. Much house and techno from the US, Belgium, Germany, and Holland has been well documented, but some of the more obscure British productions are lesser known and need to be showcased. Hopefully, these tracks will inspire and educate a new generation of electronic music fans who weren't born then and also trigger some acid flashbacks for the older ravers as they take a trip down memory lane. Features Centuras, Bandulu, Strontium 90, Orr-Some, Biff'um Baff'um Boys, Epoch 90, Mind Over Rhythm, Dream Frequency, As One, and UVX. Double-CD version contains the same tracklisting; CD 1 is unmixed, CD 2 is mixed.
