Listening notes
Retro Arena Vinyl Two is a four-track vinyl release issued by Lightning Records in 2001 under catalog number LR-2001-014. The record sits within the electronic, trance, and hard trance genres, presenting a selection of tracks that reflects the remix culture prevalent in dance music at the turn of the millennium.
The A-side opens with the Nalin & Kane Remix of "Meet Her At The Love Parade," running just under ten minutes at 9:51. That duration places it firmly in extended mix territory, giving the track room to develop across the side. It is followed by "Hit The Bang" at 5:16, a comparatively concise cut that rounds out the first side.
The B-side leads with the Three 'N' One Mix of "Café Del Mar" at 8:46, another extended interpretation of a title that circulated widely in trance and ambient dance contexts during this period. Closing the record is "Eternally (Dance Mix)" at 6:52, bringing the total runtime of the release to just over thirty minutes across its four tracks.
As the second installment suggested by its title, this release appears to be part of a series under the Retro Arena name on Lightning Records, though the full scope of that series is not confirmed by the available documentation. The various-artist format and the presence of named remixes rather than original productions point to a compilation approach typical of the era's club and trance market.
The record carries catalog number LR-2001-014 and was pressed in the vinyl format. Beyond the details enumerated here, further information regarding personnel, pressing specifications, or distribution has not been verified and is omitted from this draft.
