Agnelli & Nelson - Hudson St.

Trance producers Agnelli & Nelson began releasing singles together in 1998, with their debut single being "Angels '98", a remake of a track called "Angels Fly", released by Nelson in 1996, which in turn is a remake of a track called "Bolivian Angel", made by Nelson and two other guys in 1993. After this debut, which went nowhere, they released "El Niño", which certainly went down well in the trance scene, and got them signed to Xtravaganza Records. Their following single, "Everyday", was a massive success, reaching #17 on the UK Top Charts. The group continued releasing singles, releasing "Embrace", "Hudson Street" and "Vegas" following this. All of these singles, except the first two, would appear on their 2000 album, Hudson St. This album features many different styles of trance, from the hands-in-the-air stuff they'd been releasing as singles, to more breakbeat and drum and bass sounds.

Right, but what can we do for bonus tracks? Well, "El Niño" isn't featured at all on the album, so that is certainly one to include. We also have the whole "Angels '98" single, and various remixes they made of their own tracks.

Okay, let's first rectify the severe lack of "El Niño" on this album by tacking it on the end. While some might argue that adding songs to albums "ruins the artists' intent" and the "vibe" of the album, the track is so good it can't not be included. I honestly don't know why they didn't put it on there. And besides, putting it on the end makes it feel a bit like an encore.

Much needed bonus track

			77:35

Now, after this, we need to make a disc for the many versions of "Angels", including the Ubiquity 1993 release, the Robbie Nelson 1996 release, and the Agnelli & Nelson 1998 release. Putting these all together, and we get the "Angels" disc.

CD 2: "Angels"

2	Bolivian Angel (Hands in the Air Mix)		6:06
3	Angels Fly (The Arena Massive Mix)	"Angels Fly (Bolivian Angel '96)" Robbie Nelson single, 1996	6:30

6	Angels Die		9:15
7	Bolivian Angel '98		8:40
			54:14

However, with still some room left on the disc, there is one other thing I'd like to introduce you to. Under the name "Afterburn", Agnelli & Nelson released "North Pole" in 2000. Considering it has a similar sound to the works on the album, and was released in the same year as it, I think it's a safe inclusion on the end of this disc.

CD 2 continued: "North Pole"

No.	Title	Original release	Length
8	North Pole (12" Mix)	"North Pole" / "Frattboy" Afterburn single, 2000	10:40
9	Frattboy		9:46
			74:40

And now that we're done with the bonus tracks, let's move onto the remixes that were made of songs from this album by Agnelli & Nelson themselves. A couple notes: the duration of the Alternative Mix of "El Niño" is unknown (i.e. I can't find it anywhere online), and "Every Day, Every Moment, Every Time" is the vocal version of "Everyday", although I think it only got a small promotional release before being cancelled, as I can't find the full length version.
