"Here's a Spacid recording from back in 1996, recorded live at the Funky Green Aliens party no 6 "Alien Frequencies", which took place in a auditorium at the faculty of Agriculture from the University of Ghent. Like most FGA parties, the place was packed. Techno was still an underground phenomenon back then and was just starting to break through. The FGA organization which I founded, wreaked havoc and threw (sometimes illegal) techno parties in Ghent, Antwerp and West Flanders.
I was already playing with an effect module back then, although Pioneer was not yet present on the pro dj market. Rodec was still ruling, but I used a guitar effect module with some self-made effects. Listening to his now, I realise that they weren't as fine-tuned as now, but changing the sound of a track through effects was quite groundbreaking back then.
In the beginning of the mix you'll hear a high pitched tone, which was the sound ofthe tv test card of back then. It was being projected behind me. This way the dancefloor could experience the test live and so they did... That high pitched sound at a high volume was highly irresponsible looking back, but back then there were no volume restrictions. I still like those anarchy days. Anyway...
How the mix was recorded is still a mystery to me. I can't image releasing a mix with two audible errors in it, but it is what it is, and it's fun to listen to this again.
Thanks to Steven VdBrande for recording and digitizing.
You can expect aggressive acid and 1996 techno, which if played loud will destroy every hair on your body.
