Hollywood – Phase 187 {MOD#42}

Artist: Hollywood
Title:
Phase 187
Label:
Mono
Catalog #:
MOD#42
Release Date:
1996/10/12


Well, it’s taken me almost 50 Mono releases, but I (h0l) have finally got round to releasing a proper tune on Mono (my other two releases were just cleaning up some minor unreleased stuff, really.) Phew. And it’s my first tune for 6 months, too, due to final exams at uni, my new job, and running Mono all getting in the way. Anyhow, hope you enjoy the result.

The “I wanna be a spaceman” sample is courtesy of Mr. Noel Gallagher of the popular beat combo Oasis, by the way, and it’s stolen from an Oasis bootleg. Scoooore. 🙂

Hollywood – Ephemera mini-EP {MOD#25}

Artist: Hollywood
Title:
Ephemera mini-EP
Label:
Mono
Catalog #:
MOD#25
Release Date:
1996/07/20


Well, I thought it was about bloody time I (h0l!) released something else on Mono, but I just haven’t had time to compose anything recently, what with running the group and trying to design intros and having a life n stuff. 😛 So here’s a rather subtle, mellow elektronik track I did for Sane/Monk a while ago, you might just possibly have spotted it in an Amiga discmag somewhere. Anyhow, it comes along with a bonus track (which was the alternative tune for the Axis “Headcase” intro, although it wasn’t used in the end.) As for more stuff, I _am_ working on a trance track, which I may finish some time this century. 🙂 And I’d just like to say I really don’t expend much time and effort on any tunes nowadays. In other words, maybe this isn’t the true h0l, music-wise 🙂

Hollywood – Byte Me {MOD#008}

Artist: Hollywood
Title:
Byte Me
Label:
Mono
Catalog #:
MOD#008
Release Date:
1996/05/19


This song is something I’ve been playing with for a while now – mainly I’m too busy at uni to concentrate on songs, but I finally got round to finishing this one. I think it’s fairly original, and there’s no drum loops, etc (everything came from a few sample CDs, as individual instruments.) I hope you enjoy it. 🙂

Various Artists – R:emissions EP {MOD#007}

Artist: Various Artists
Title:
R:emissions EP
Label:
Mono
Catalog #:
MOD#007
Release Date:
1996/05/16


Welcome to “R:emissions” , the first remix EP released by da funky dreads at Mono. This selection of beatz includes a very special guest, in the form of our hombre Supernao. Expect to hear more stuff from him released via Mono, and soon.

A few notes on the songs: “Akai Patch Kids” was originally a short drum+bass workout by Supernao, and was re-re-mixed by h0l. The original remix title was “Garbage Patch Kids”. 🙂 Total remixing time was about 2 hours (1 hour from Supernao and 1 hour from h0l.)

The Dreamfish remix of “Tribute” is one of my favourite Mono releases ever, and dare I say it improves on an already classic song? I think I do. Analogue squelch meets fluid techno meets swirling breakbeat, yum. Watch out for some further solo Dreamfish releases in the near future, ah-haaah jimlad.

Finally, the bonus track remix by Supernao is a cute little piece of electronica. Beep beep beep beeeep bep bep bp b etc… nice stuff.


Tracklist:
01 – Dreamfish, Supernao, Hollywood – Adults (Akai Patch Kids Remix) [MOD] [FLAC] [MP3]
02 – TheFoxII, Dreamfish – Tribute (Warp Engine Mix) [MOD] [FLAC] [MP3]
03 – Dreamfish, Hollywood, Supernao – Time Slip (Butterfly Wings Remix) [MOD] [FLAC] [MP3]

Dreamfish+Hollywood – Time Slip (Who Crushed Reality Mix?) {Mono#001}

Artist: Dreamfish+Hollywood
Title:
Time Slip (Who Crushed Reality Mix?)
Catalog #:
Mono#001
Label:
Mono
Release Date:
1996/04/22


This tune was originally composed by Dreamfish back in 1994 as a full-ahead trance tune (and is actually one of t01he tracks featured on the TRSI Recordz “Cyberlogik” CD.. go buy the CD if you want to know what the original sounds like!) In March 1996, remixing it was put forward as a music-competition on the UK “Digital Candy” BBS, and h0l stepped forward. Soon after that, Mono was born. h0l still doesn’t know if he won the remixing competition or not. 😉 The vocal sample added by h0l is from the classic NWA album “Efil4zaggin”, by the way.
