Two hour ISDN transmission to Groove Radio in LA, 1997. Created by The Future Sound of London. Performed at Earthbeat studios London 1997. Engineered by Yage.
Released on The Pod Room on 01/02/10.
Purchase from FSOLDigital.

This is a bit different from the actual broadcast which someone has thoughtfully made available on Soundcloud. In the actual broadcast, some of the music is a bit different towards the end and around 1:48ish, the music stops and there's an interview with Gaz.

It's the exact same transmission up until 1h47min

and then we have the Gaz interview - this is the bootleg version that was transmitted live on Groove Radio. (2h02min52sec)

the official Pod Room version that got out has 2h01min03sec - which is the original intended mix for Groove radio, with 15 minutes more music - so both are cool, depends what you want from the mix...

By far my favourite of the Dead Cities broadcasts, a lot more variety by then since I bet they were starting to think about a follow-up. The personality and glitches in the interview adds alot of laughs and captures the era well, the interaction between FSOL and the radio stations. Was surprised to hear that the Exhibition from the Archives was actually included in the original version.
