AllMusic[1]

The Mixing It Session is an EP by Disco Inferno.[2][3] It was released in 1999 on Tugboat Records in the United Kingdom.[4][5] A six-song single taken from a BBC Radio 3 session recorded in 1994, it was released many years after Disco Inferno had disbanded.[1]

Critical reception

[edit]

AllMusic wrote: "'Bird' begins innocently enough as a standard issue ambient instrumental, but by the end you find yourself at a pool party, listening to Caribbean music while submerged in the deep end. The closing 'Rats' sounds most like old Disco Inferno, thanks to Ian Crause's Vini Reilly-like guitar spirals."[1]
