Can anyone help ID these two? They're from a top notch tape, which I picked up back in 1992. All I can tell you is they were mixed in with a lot of Orb stuff and bits of the Blade Runner soundtrack.

Since I've been looking for the first track for 17 years, if anyone can ID it then I'll donate a tenner to Children in Need!

Cheers

I'm not sure what WOTW - Fem vocal.mp3 is, but the same warpy synth sound towards the beginning of the sample is the same sound that was used on this tune:

Transformer 2 With Asli - Fruit Of Love (Techno Vocal Version) (http://www.discogs.com/Transformer-2-With-Asli-Fruit-Of-Love-Part-1/release/183938)

Also, the Sarangi instrument melody at 1:36 is the same melody Sasha used on part of this tune:

Sasha & Maria - Be As One (Radio Edit) (http://www.discogs.com/Sasha-Maria-Be-As-One/master/37641)

Hope this helps, good luck on finding your tune!

Chiz is rite, it's indeed De-Orbit

Speedy J - Rise (12") at Discogs (http://www.discogs.com/Speedy-J-Rise/release/5647)

that other one I heard before as well, perhaps it comes to my mind again later on.

chiz/BUNKERHEADZ... You have no idea how happy you've made me;) The worst thing is that the track's on the Warp compilation "Artifical Intelligence", and I remember reading about that in Mixmag 10 years ago but never got round to buying it. If only....

wallabyFC - Thanks for the leads. I knew I recognised the sample from somewhere, but can't believe I didn't place it as Sasha & Maria. (Also, I didn't realise what a Sarangi was until now!)

I'll check out the Transformer 2 track, and do some digging re: that sample, and report back...

Thanks again guys
