>> > Al-Naafiysh(the soul) - HASHIM etc. etc. etc. >> >> I can't find this track on any of the electro compilations.I have the Street >> Jams: Electro Funk Parts 1-3(Rhino) i can't say anything about any strictly electro compilations, but why not support the label that put this out as their first record? go to http://www.cuttingnyc.com and get it in various forms on the cd compilations sold from the site. it's still available on vinyl, which kind of exposes some ahistorical bent of the commonly-discussed labels (what does "out of print" say beyond the labels' having thrown their history to the moneyed collectors?). >I have a '92 or '93 release of this track on a Network label (UK >acid/bleep label that disappeared around '94) 12". It has a couple of >bleepy remixes and then the original in full glory. The vinyl is clear "network classics" was some sort of reissue project they had going (though i do seem to see new ones every once in awhile). the only one that ever appealed to me was the one (also orange...hey!) with kevin saunderson's "the groove that won't stop" and paris grey's "don't lead me (neal howard remix)" - man, i got chills when i held in my hands ONE piece of vinyl containing two "fat chance" tracks (cf. under one sky). not sure why hashim appeared in this series (early on, too), but i don't live in england and there could have been some champion-esque licensing by network going on, none copies of which ever made in to the bins i ever dug.. eric onnow: bad religion, "no control" (epitaph)
