LP - Dreams

\n

Oh man this was a tough one to fact-check. Discogs had nothing and I had to do some detectiving. Made harder by the fact that the line sampled has been used in like a jillion different dance tracks. Ended up doing some Wayback Machine work.

So the story goes like this: in 1970, Tim Buckley released a track called Song to the Siren. In 1983, Cocteau Twins did a cover released under the banner of the This Mortal Coil project. In 1992, Messiah sampled this version for a choon called Temple of Dreams that became a big rave anthem. From there on everyone covered/remixed it. This version by LP was only ever released on mp3.com from late 1999 to mid-2001. We’re talking about this LP, for the record.
