Love the record crackle better then dull dull digital recording..

[tomstickland]

6:50 on is the best bit to me.

[tomstickland]

I've got it on CD single and could upload the whole thing.

[MarvelGirl100]

@tomstickland

Where did you find the CD Single? and can it be ordered. Let me know they have any other songs on CD Single. The thought of Downloading from ITunes is a joke.

[AsiEsoEs]

Hip Hop has got to be the very most detriment to whatever the end is, Unfortunately, Japan has had to deal with that. In the name of all the souls that have undergone what has happened there, elevate me, elevate me to a mantra state of mind. Peace be with you. You will never be forgotten, the land of the rising sun.

[AlexPenzance]

If I remember right it's 11'08 long...the best tune they ever did...it's perfect..when this came out it was a milestone to hear this on commercial radio :-)

[AsiEsoEs]

death2hiphopnRnB ... I cannot agree with you more! Your name says it all!

[AsiEsoEs]

In the late 80s and early 90s, S'Express was a huge deal here in Miami. This version of Mantra is exquisite. And yes SunDogSteve, a crying shame it's only 10 minutes, you should follow up and post the last 10 minutes as opposed to the first.

[KapitanoStuff]

is that a sample from Trans-Europe Express at at 06:30? Or a sound-alike tribute?

[SpiritOf1989]

ENJOY YOUR TRIP ON MARK MOORE'S

BEST!  Still gives me the chills.

[simespsb]

not heard this for about 20 yrs, still got the vinyl but no player. even tho it's long i used to play it over and over. Pure XTC!!!!!!

[lonedrone]

Excellent! I have the original vinyl single (which is by far the best mix) but I have no phono preamp at the moment. Gotta get one...

[MantraForAStateOf]

Yes! Yes! Yes!!!

[rosssiddle]

al al al al al al alright!

nuff said!

[TheMadFerret]

A timeless classic, great upload fella.

5*'s all-round.

[djjamesbond]

pura energia dddd mmmmaaaaiisss

[soundseeker63]

Great flashback to 89. Such high energy! Happier times than today I recon.

[oozhaboo]

ohhhhh! I had this classic snagged outta my collection. nice to be able to hear it again. thank you uploader ;)

[sundogsteve]

fuck this is sweet

agree with the other folks - argh! you chopped it too quick!

we ARE missing something - you're the only one who thinks we are not lol

that shizz was 11min something - i had the vinyl

thx for posting though good stuff

[death2hiphopnRnB]

Unfortunately it had to be chopped in order to comply with the 10 minute cutoff....not my choice, believe me!

I know you guys aren't happy, but there is no point in my uploading the 1min 30 seconds or so left...unless one day I REALLY get bored, lol!!

[432hearts]

@death2hiphopnRnB Please upload the whole vinyl, youtube limit now 15 minutes!

[death2hiphopnRnB]

@432hearts Really? I may have to get out the old record player again then....watch this space :-)

[432hearts]

@death2hiphopnRnB

Feel free 2 C ...gizmodo.com/5599619/youtube­-increasing-upload-limit-from-­10-to-15-minutes or Google it... :-)

[gdub12345]

@death2hiphopnRnB Yes I would very much appreciate this aswell!

[theeightieskickass]

This is the best mix on youtube, and it's the best tune by S'Express!!

[ScottishGeordie39]

Thanks for that, but I used to have this on cd single and the second part was always my fave especially the end. I just love the way everything else fades down just leaving the bleepy melody. Pretty Please????

[death2hiphopnRnB]

It's not worth uploading less than 2.00 minutes worth of just a song ending, but I'll happily forward the .mp3 if you have an email address that allows over 10mb per attachment? Or I can share it via MSN.

[JapseyeOgri]

@death2hiphopnRnB

Thanks for posting this up. Is your above offer still on the cards??

If so, I'd love to get the file from. The fact that it's ripped from Vinyl makes it that bit more special.

[death2hiphopnRnB]

@JapseyeOgri Yep! Send me the email addy....

[ScottishGeordie39]

PLEASE PLEASE UPLOAD THE END AS I LOVE IT TO BITS. Willing to donate a kidney should u ever need one. Cheers matey.

[death2hiphopnRnB]

It's not worth your kidney mate, there is only about 2 minutes left after the fade...nothing really changes until the end!

[kingsgate57]

I bought this on 12" vinyl in 1989 I think and haven't been able to listen to it for years now - no turntable! So ta ever for putting it here, it's still wonderul.

[death2hiphopnRnB]

No worries! It's the best version of Mantra by a considerable distance. BTW USB turnables are getting cheaper by the day....I would ask Santa and see what you get at Christmas.

[kingsgate57]

I am so old that I don't even know what a USB turntable is, even having thought about it for 10 mins.

[pkthedude]

At last somebodie's posted a brill version - Thankyou x peace x
