High Energy Double Dance - Volume.10 1988 80 Minutes Non-Stop mix (2LP Set)



I'm always truly impressed by the way High-Energy dealt with new music. "If its good we'll add it in!" Its 1988 and High-Energy jumps full swing into House. But GOOD House.

By the time this comp was released there was really so much good House around I'm sure that the High-Energy crew had a hard time compiling this one. They make up for their absence with 2 hot "Jack Mix" style house megamixes (see below) which really shows their awareness of what was good at the time. Other stand-out House trax are from Cappella, Bunker Kru & Harlequin 4's, 49er's and Sybil.


 
Added into this is a selection of the best Hiigh-Energy and Italo sound with a "special" Aerobics mix in recognition of Aerobic Exercisers who consistently used the High-Energy series to work out to (I should know!). Stand out tracks from Beautiful Ballet, Albert One, Mr Zivago, Macho Gang, Amanda Scott, Fred Ventura, Distortion Voice and the massive hit from M & H Band "Popcorn".


Lee Selsick is dumped for the WOM (World Of Music) design studios who do quite a good job, our High-Energy dude is now a trendy watermark on a house-flava cover. Andrew Wood once again delivers the goods. And there are funkee side names again. Altogether an excellent album and brilliant handling of new unfamiliar territory.
