Notes

Exclusive UK Promo Release - Limited Edition. Stamped White Label "Indie - 'Apollonia' The Original Mixes".

This is a very rare test pressing of DMX501. Only 12 were made. When DMUK checked the test pressings they noticed that the catalogue number had been wrongly etched as "DMX 5" by the factory. For all subsequent pressings (on white label and with full label) the "5" was scratched out and replaced with "501".

DMX501 was actually pressed in UK at A.S.L. and mastered and cut from the original DAT at Porkys (as the etching on the vinyl shows). It was considerably more expensive to manufacture in England than in Italy but that was a request of the original Italian licensor.

The later DMGX914 release instead was mastered and cut in Italy and manufactured at Astro Records like the almost totality of Disco Magic UK releases.

This record is the first that Disco Magic UK licensed from a company that was NOT Discomagic in Italy.

This test pressing release, the DMX501 ones and DMGX914 are the ONLY releases to feature the ORIGINAL mixes of Apollonia by the REAL artist INDIE as on the original Italian import LW 001 from 1990.
In fact, the Disco Magic UK releases have two extra mixes (on A1 ad B2 that did not appear in the original mix but were on the DAT Master received by the original record company in Italy. The Instrumental version that is on the original 1990 LW 001 does NOT appear on the Disco Magic UK releases as it was on a separate DAT that the Italian company could no longer find.
