It was dawn - dawn in the desert. Far to the east, beyond this sandy waste, a flicker of light illuminated the heavens, which, since two hours after midnight, had grown densely dark, while the moon and the myriad of stars which had peeped down upon the encampments below. Tomkins and his fellows, had disappeared entirely.

This Is Techno CD Box Set - 1996

I found this in a charity shop about a year ago but after buying it I left it in the car for months where it ended up under the passenger seat. I've only just got round to listening to it and I've been quite impressed. The box had no details on but I've managed to work out the track listing.

This is Techno Free Bonus Mix

01 Fantasy Flight Hypnotic State (3:36)
02 Mantra (21) Progression (5:52)
03 De Force Tour (5:08)
04 Eclipse (23) Collision (6:04)
05 Mark Broom Time (6:06)
06 Underworld Dark & Long (Dark Train Mix) (8:59)

It was mixed by Colin Dale back in 1996 and it's like being on a magical preision engineered techno train made out of glo-sticks headed for Dusseldorf.

After some investigation, It turns out I have the 2nd and 4th installments of a series of breaks compilations released by Harmless Recordings about ten years ago. I'm going to attempt to track down the other two. I bought this at the same time as the other one in a car boot sale for 'The Revolution Will Not Be Televised' which is a mighty track.
