DISCOPOLIS III
Comment:
Here is the legendary first mix featuring the Bee Gees:http://artofthemix.org/FindAMix/getcontents.asp?strMixID=97690
Then came the even better second installment featuring ABBA:

180 minutes long. Here is the 3rd and FINAL version featuring The Bee Gees and ABBA, and a whole platter of others. As the first one was about the original Metropolis, and the second was the anime Metropolis, it made sense that the 3rd album be about probably the most famous Metropolis, Superman's Metropolis.
The sides are A KRYPTON, B SMALLVILLE, C METROPOLIS, and finally D SAN ANDREAS. Superman is one of my favourite movies and all the tracks I used here follow the order of the movie (though I went off on a Superman/Lana Lang love fantasy disco tanget on the SMALLVILLE side). The Don't Panic (2009 remix) was done by me. It was originally an instrumental and it still is, however throughout it I put bits of the Krypton councils dialogue about the fate of their planet, and the track ends with silence and then Krypton exploding! This was the only track I added anything to. However I edited many tracks, including changing the volume levels of almost everything, plus having to decide between using radio edits, 7-inch tracks, or 12-inch tracks! I'm so glad I did this and more so that I'm done this and never have to do another one! This ends DISCOPOLIS.
God bless Gene Hackman
