Optikonfusion!

DESCRIPTION:
This was a HUGE hit on MARS FM. The only issue: the 12" single mix runs around eight minutes.

Normally, for radio edits, Swedish Egil would record his 12" vinyl to a DAT. Then I'd take the DAT, dump it into my Mac, and chop the songs down. This time, I already had both the record and the CD.

The original 12" mix (Optikonfusion!) had some illicit samples of "Here Comes The Sun" by The Beatles. By the time the CD single was made, the unlicensed Beatles sample had been yanked.

I decided to chop about two minutes out of the mix, and for quality purposes I used the mix on the CD single. I did, though, edit in The Beatles sample from the vinyl, because c'mon. That sample makes the track!

Every time you heard this song on MARS FM, you were hearing this exact radio edit. I never was credited on air, but I am the one who made the version for radio. Now you know. #TheMoreYouKnow
