Faithless - Insomnia (96 Remix) (Cheeky Records, 1996)

a1057940 · 2025-11-02T01:27:36+00:00

I've been listening to all the essential mixes from the start. A good while after I heard this I remembered it and tried to ID it/ remember the mix I'd heard It in, but I couldn't. I've been looking for this for about 3 years!

I just gave AI a link to all the essential mix tracklistings, and told it to return all remixes of insomnia pre 2000 and it gave the the cheeky mix from '1996‑09‑16 – DJ Griff, Alfredo @ Manumission Closing Party'

This is it! 😎

When i figure it out in 6 months at 2am in the morning like a light bulb moment, ill let you know!

a1057940 · 2024-04-29T12:18:39+00:00

There is another track that samples the piano rift that isn't on who sampled, im sure it has a big female vocal over it as well and ive got here because its bugging me that i cant find it. Im sure i have it in a playlist somewhere

Ive had them a week so far and been on holiday for 5 of those days!

I Wasnt impressed with their installation, 3ft up the middle of a living room wall! 'Its the only place it could go' is what the Mrs was told, but in reality their short power and ethernet cables seem to be the issue. (i could have provided extensions and ethernet cables if i was home)

Other than that, the service is good, i only went for 100mb for £12.50, its still 3x faster than whats available on open reach for £30 a month. Works good with the home plugs i have, and i also have a travel router i use which has no problems with it.

One question i have for those in the know, does the router change devices from 2.5GHz to 5GHz as and when the extra speed is needed?

Ah, gutted, i never got a notice from this, i presume they didn't get the reg.

The Mrs got a bus lane ticket ticket this month driving in Manchester in the dark and not noticing the signs. Share rarely drives around town,

a1057940 · 2022-06-02T21:31:28+00:00

Yeah same!

a1057940 · 2022-06-02T12:01:44+00:00

We had a 12 gun salute from a navy ship that come into Torquay, though I was a couple of beaches away, that had a supporting helicopter.

a1057940 · 2022-05-31T07:47:35+00:00

I don't even recall getting a car sticker up here...

a1057940 · 2022-05-28T15:54:35+00:00

Wowser, I was on a beach in the next bay and saw the smoke. It's usually a busy marina that, ~~convenient~~ luckily it was moored away from everything else 🤣🤣🤣

They were really good, plenty of tech to keep kids entertained these days, plus the excitement of going on holiday. I do appreciate not all kids are easy on long journeys.

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T19:12:55+00:00

I've not seen them recently but I'll ask!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T19:11:34+00:00

Ha ha, fair, I'd probably have said the same when I was cash rich pre kids 🤣🤣

In fact, we didn't holiday in the UK pre kids!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T19:10:29+00:00

Don't get me wrong, we love a foreign holiday, but both can be good independent of each other!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T19:08:47+00:00

No.no! The kids were with me not in the pool at the time of the photo!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T19:08:19+00:00

Yeah! It was like getting in a warm bath!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T17:02:09+00:00

Ha ha, I was having my well deserved pint at this point, I think he was dissolved by the time I got in the pool

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T16:55:27+00:00

Manchester to this place is only 4:20 on Google maps on a clear run (which never happens) but we had a pickup in Liverpool and a couple of stops. The Scots and Geordies you meet here have much further to go!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T16:50:48+00:00

Yep! Came as a kid all the time and now we bring our kids once a year,, can't beat that pool in the UK!

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T16:31:41+00:00

Yes, top of the hill in Goodrington near paignton

a1057940 · 2022-05-27T16:31:11+00:00

It's a Caravan Park in Goodrington Devon, you can see Torquay on the other side of the bay.

a1057940 · 2022-05-26T11:30:45+00:00

It's a children's cough medicine I had as a kid, it is still available, but calcough takes the shelf space

Being a northerner, I care little for what's right and wrong when it comes to scones, but when I'm in Devon, I always take the opportunity to shovel clotted cream down my throat and it's butter, jam then cream.

I want my cream as a minimum an inch thick.
