this remix is either on RELICS or on Derrick May's Japan release. It's

Theresa Hill, to my knowledge, is one of the most significant radio

Forcefield) about 2/3 of the way through it, uncredited. I'm guessing
because these songs are produced by independent labels it happens often?
It IS isn't it? Since I've found it I've been pretty much listening to it

i think that dance music would be the perfect money maker for itunes. as
