Listening notes

This 1997 acetate presents two tracks split between two acts: The Fabulous Baker Boys appear on the A-side with "Oh Boy" in a remix of unspecified origin, while Ikon (3) occupy the AA-side with "Doesn't Have To Be Like That" in a rework credited to VinylGroover. Both tracks fall within the electronic and hardcore genres.

The release carries no catalog number and was issued without label affiliation, appearing under the designation Not On Label. The format is acetate, a one-off or extremely limited disc type typically cut for purposes such as DJ use, artist reference, or promotional consideration rather than standard commercial distribution. As such, this item exists outside the conventional structures of label releases and pressing runs.

No durations are documented for either track, and no additional personnel information is available beyond the remix credits noted above. The specific nature of the "Oh Boy" remix remains unidentified in the available data, listed only as an unknown remix. VinylGroover is credited by name on the AA-side, though no further information about that remixer is verifiable from the provided facts.

Given the acetate format and the absence of any label infrastructure, this release would have circulated in extremely limited form by its very nature, though the precise circumstances of its creation and distribution are not documented here and should not be assumed.

The pairing of two separate artists across two sides, combined with the Not On Label designation and acetate format, marks this as an item of narrow and specific provenance. Researchers and collectors interested in either The Fabulous Baker Boys or Ikon (3) within the mid-to-late nineties electronic and hardcore scenes may find this entry a useful reference point, though verification of additional context will require sources beyond what is currently available.
