Is there anything similar to Paul Oakenfold's Urban Soundtracks?

  • Is there anything similar to Paul Oakenfold's Urban Soundtracks? I'm after anything that mixes music (preferably dance music) with excerpts from books or films. The only similar thing I have found are Above and Beyond's Essential Mixes which I have really enjoyed. Is there anything else out there? Do audiobooks that mix the story with music exist?

  • Answer:

    Oh wow, I've never heard of these, I'll have to track them down. I can't recommend many mixes besides all of Oakenfold's http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=site:soundcloud.com+essential+mix+oakenfold&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 which you can find on soundcloud pretty easily. He used soundtrack music a lot, but not so much actual dialogue and spoken word.

Now that I think about it, I vaguely remember a neuromancer audiobook with U2 music that came out in the early 90s?

Along with what empath said, I'd even venture to say that Oakie's Essential Goa Mix from 1994 practically invented that style. Even now, it's amazing. Hunt down a copy immediately.

THAT William Mize

I must admit I don't actually like his Goa mix. I've listened to it several times but its just never really grabbed my attention. I love his World Tour essential mixes but haven't really tried any of his others which I will have to remedy. You can find some of the Urban Soundtracks on YouTube.
