To complement Dark Was The Night, the latest excellent commercial mix of Optimo's storied discography, Mule Musiq have pulled four considered highlights from the CD for this 12" sampler. Listening to the four tracks featured here in isolation from Dark Was The Night only magnifies what accomplished DJs JD Twitch and JG Wilkes are, and highlights their digging skills with the period in which the music originally surfaced covering the late seventies and very early 90s. "I Won't Hurt You" from QX-1 is sleazy, suggestive deep house from the early 90s that will appeal to fans of same era K Alexi Shelby, whilst "Psychodalek Nightmares" is a killer new wave from The Freeze. Odori's "Number One" is super rare deep house from '91 with a killer S&M drum snap and a surfeit of new age samples whilst "Dream Baby Dream" from Angel Corpus Christi has last track written indelibly into it's DNA - no surprise then that it closes the mix!
