Hey Pedro (and all)-

You are looking for the Frolic EP... There was a 'Frolic EP Vol. 2' which
has the remix on it, but the original Frolic has the original mix...

The compilation this track is on is "Boneshakers Volume 2" on Internal Bass
Records, UK... I know this because this compilation was compiled by our
very own DJ BMF. It's a great comp, lots of great tracks, and the CD
version is brilliantly mixed by BMF.

All the Scruff stuff comes recommended by me. It's generally very melodic
and playful, and holds its own on the dancefloor. The Scruffman himself is
a really swell guy, too, and can DJ a mean set.

There you go,

Michael @ Eighth Dimension

Pimp Daddy Nash - "Private Leftfield Downtempo Fuzz" CD released May 19th
on Eighth Dimension Records... woo woo woo!
