Background Information
This compilation by Polygram TV, was released just two weeks after the release of “Discothèque” as a single in the UK, and two weeks before “Pop” was released, making this the first album that “Discothèque” appeared on. The album was released in the UK on February 17, 1997. The 2-CD set is a dance mix created by a DJ, and is a continuous mix of songs. The DJ credited with this mix was “St. Peter and Heaven”, a brother and sister DJ act that worked on many of these compilation mixes for Polygram. Polygram TV, was an imprint of Polygram that released records which were highly promoted on television through advertisement.
The mix featured here is a shortened edit of the DM Deep Extended Club Mix. It cuts out the long extended intro, and also cuts off a few of the final verses. The overall mix has also had the tempo increased, so it plays quite fast, and sounds almost unnatural to the ears to listen to this mix.
The album charted quite well, reaching number 3 in the charts on the week of its release in the UK.
