Various - Merck Mix 1

Various - Merck Mix 1, Spring 2003 (DJ Mix by Terrahertz) (Merck, MERCK MIX1, 2003) (320)

Essentially a mixed sampler of the excellent, but now defunct, label Merck.  This is a fun little mix that exposed me to many new artists that I hadn't heard, as I didn't have the time/money to track down all those Merck albums back in the day.  Many of the tracks are only partially heard and some of the transitions are forced.  But overall, it's a fun listen.  I also included a link to a single mp3 file if your mp3 player puts those gaps between songs.  No cue file though.

Way out of print.

Boomkat review:

The 3 year anniversary of Merck brings their first mix CD. Composed entirely of tracks from the Merck catalog plus a previously unreleased remix of Machine drum by Secede, thrown in for the trainspotter touch. It was mixed by Terrahertz, a Baltimore resident Merck DJ, including some of his favorite Merck classics plus a smattering of the new releases that the label has continued to assault us with over the last few months. Including: Adam Johnson, Lackluster, Esem, Blamstrain, Machinedrum, Morris Nightingale, Kristuit Salu, Proswell, MD, Ilkae, Proem, Brothomstates and more. Excellent stuff, budget price!
