My notes for this show selected this track from Belgian dance duo, Astrospider’s debut release, Rave Odyssey 2001 as my favourite track of the night, so apologies if anyone’s worried about the quality of my other selections from 25/10/92 as they roll out over the next fortnight. There’s nothing especially world-changing about Synthetic Happiness, but once the synths drop in at the 50 second mark, I think you’d have to have a hard heart to not be up and dancing. I’d also wager that DJs in nightclubs and discotheques all across Europe probably hit their strobes in unison at the 2:30 mark.
Released via Wonka Beats, Peel had picked up a copy of Rave Odyssey 2001 during his fortnight driving around Europe. He revealed that he had made contact with a number of different record labels during his trip. The labels had eagerly sent him records for his consideration. These arrived together with the many other records sent into him from all over the world. He revealed that the amount of records waiting for him after his fortnight away measured 23 and a half feet.
