MASTERMIX 80' Retro Mixes Vol 2

0:01 Some more new releases for you and this time from MasterMix

Alright folks, some more new releases for you and this time from MasterMix. It's the 80s Retro Mix Volume 2. New releases because it's a new compilation of mixes. Right, so what's it all about? Basically on this guy you've got five separate tracks but each track has got almost a collaboration of loads of different tunes put together. It's a mash-up. Basically what they've done is they've taken loads of old school tracks and just put them together to make one mix. Right, this is mix number one, kicking off with Papa's Got A Brand New Pig Bag. What they've done in the background, you can just about hear Fine Young Cannibals, Johnny Comes Home. Very good. This is the sort of thing, you know, ideal for like weddings and that kind of stuff. Now, it's up to you, but I personally would not play...

2:25 Track number two

The whole thing, the whole CD, in a wedding. You've still got to do your job, but having said that, it's a fantastic thing, I suppose in a sense, if somebody wants, I don't know, a bit of an old school set. This is mix number one, I'm going to whang this forward a little bit. The funny thing is, is mix one is almost like the indie style from the 80s. Food class indie today, necessarily disco or anything like that. This was more, you know, your two-tone style kind of thing. Rock in there as well. Okay, what have we got? A mix one. Pigbag, Funny and Cannibals, Clash, Jam, Style Cancel, Bad Manners, Billy Idol, Alarm, The Damned, Undertones, Joe Boxer, Piranhas, Selector, Martha and the Muffins, and the Style Cancel. Right, let's go to track number two. Bit of a classic gear.

In the late 80s, it's Tears For Fears but again what they've done is they've got Tears For Fears in the background but they've gone straight in with another track as well. So literally as soon as the mix starts you've got two tracks working together. That's number 2, I'm going to wang this fork a bit. Give you an idea of some of the tracks from number 2. MD Level 42, Blow Monkeys, Curiosity Kill The Cat, Swing Out Sister, Fleetwood Mac, Deacon Blue, Kim Carnes, Genesis, Jesus and Mary Chain. I suppose this one's slightly more commercial. Right, we're going to mix number three now, so have a listen. Kicking off here with Simple Minds. Frankie Goes to Hollywood, then Billy Idol, Thompson Twins, Terrence Trent Darby, Dead or Alive, Robert Palmer, Madness, Yes, Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, Ferval Sharky, Thomas Dolby, Psychedelic Furs, Kajagoogoo, and Queef.

4:43 Try saying that after you've had a few, I'll tell you what

Try saying that after you've had a few, I'll tell you what. Right, what I'm going to do is I'm going to get ready for mix number four because this is my favourite. Classics! Kicking off with Walk This Way by Rendy MC, Kate Bush and that's really good because they've got Running Up That Hill together. And then you've got a classic that, well, if anyone says I'm telling lies here then, I don't know, maybe we're on a different planet but Salt-N-Pepper Push It is an absolute classic track. Here we go. Number four... Run DMC, Kate Bush, Salt and Pepper, Furful Sharky, Orange Juice, Natasha Jr., Cher, Kitriol and the Coconuts, Bell Stars, Queen, John Cougar, Men at Work, Bob Marley, and John Parr. And again what they've done here if you think about it, if we look at the construction,

They've taken barsing into consideration, the timing, the key of the tracks and worked them all together so everything is neatly put into place. In near enough it's like a mash-up but of a lot of tracks. This is mix number five. On this guy we've got Duran Duran, Simply Red, INXS, Blumage, Transvision, Vamp, Peshop Boys, Rolling Stone, Squeeze, Mizzure, Japan Landscape, Tranzex, Smiths, Talking Heads. And the Cult. By the way, don't forget, look in the description, follow the link for all relevant information for this guy here. Enjoy. Thank you very much.
