My YMU Playlist Mix: 'Southern Fried Charm?'

vocal Time for another label-specific mix for Yahoo! Music Unlimited, and I must say, there's _so_ much good material on YMU which it's practically impossible to find, due to the lack of good 'you might like X if you like Y' comparisons in niche genres, no label search, incorrect label listing for some minor labels, and similar issues.

So this means I ended up reverse engineering this playlist from the Discogs.com entry, but hey it worked - here's the blurb for 'Southern Fried Charm?' [YMU link]: "Norman 'Fatboy Slim' Cook's very own UK-based label Southern Fried Records started out as a place to release tracks by Cook alter egos such as the Mighty Dub Katz, but has morphed into an awesome big beat/house label in its own right.

Some highlights on this best-of selection include Scanty Sandwich's 'Because Of You', a sizable UK pop hit with its early Michael Jackson sample, as well as great tracks from chill-out dons A Man Called Adam and Prince-covering discohouse crazy Space Cowboy. All in all, most upbeat!"
