Dario G - Sunchyme (1997)

CD Single

Yet another CD dance single from 1997. I don't know if Dario G is a DJ or a dance band and I really don't care. They might just have this one song. It's a catchy dance song that's basically an instrumental remix (with some synthesized steel drums) of Life In A Northern Town, the '80s hit for The Dream Academy. So what we have here are remixes of a remix.

Tracks:

1. Radio Edit (3:54)
2. Original Mix (8:27)
3. Club 69 Tribal Chant Mix (9:03)
4. Remapped by Coloured Oxygen (12:28)
5. Sash Extended Mix (5:40)
6. Chyme (3:39)

7 versions, 49 minutes of Sunchyme. They all pretty much sound the same. I like this song, but c'mon. Lots of bass drum and "Hey-ya-ma-ma-ma, hey-doo-ay-da-nayah." The only mix that sounds remotely different from the others is track 5, Remapped By Coloured Oxygen, which speeds up the tempo, but basically sounds like me playing with a Casio keyboard I bought for $20 at Wal-Mart.

Personal Memory Associated with this CD: For some reason, I'm reminded of a BCHS band bus ride to a football game in December 1997. Students might have had this playing on the bus?
