Stacey Pullen mixes for 20:20

Second wave Detroit techno producer and renowned DJ Stacey Pullen just finished mixing a very special compilation for 20:20Vision. The Leeds-based label enlisted Pullen to commemorate their 15 year anniversary of releasing music, a veritable lifetime in dance music.

Pullen was an early influence on Ralph Lawson and production partner Carl Finlow, and partly inspired them to start a label to release their creations on; 20:20Vision. He also contributed a remix to one of their earliest releases, which helped the fledgling label gain a reputation as a serious force in electronic music.

Fast-forward 15 years, and 20:20 is still at the cutting edge of electronic club music. With established artists such as Random Factor and Art of Tones nestling up to newer signings like Simon Baker and Crazy P, Stacey Pullen must have had a hard time choosing only 14 tracks for this special anniversary mix. But judging from the tracklist -- which includes the much-loved Joshua remix of "Les Annees Des Plomb" by Volga Select -- it looks like Pullen managed his task with aplomb. His mix provides a perfect snapshot into what Ralph Lawson's label is all about.

Tracklisting:
1. Wulf & Bear - Needsy's Run
2. Inland Knights - After Me
3. Wulf n Bear - Body Music
4. Simon Baker - Out Of My Head (Julien Chatal rmx)
5. 2020Soundsystem - Sliding Away (Johnny D mix)
6. Mark Broom - Take Me Home (Mihalis Safras mix)
7. Art Of Tones - Terres Conquises
8. Random Factor - Outlaw (John Tejada mix)
9. Random Factor - Beaten (AOT mix)
10. Crazy P - Stop, Space, Return (Roberto Rodriguez mix)
11. Moodymanc - V8
12. 2020Soundsystem - Psycho
13. Mark Broom - Riddim
14. Volga Select - Les Annees Des Plomb
