This particular medley closed out the year 1988 and features thirteen plus minutes of some of that year’s biggest dance hits. It is taken from Rhythm Stick 1-1 the services first ever release. The track was mixed by legendary remixer Steve Bourasa who also worked for Hot Tracks, Direct Hit, and Ultimix just to name a few. Steve created this medley using practically every CD Rhyth Stick had in the house according to the releases insert. I hope you enjoy this record as we party into 2020.
