Unreleased Vinyl & CD E.P.: ‘Kaoma – Lambada (Transwave Remixes)’
1997 / Info posted in the discography page of the official Deedrah site / Further info provided by IsraTrance user ‘dadoski’ (Frédéric Holyszewski) on Jun 3, 2006 (his full post, unedited): “These rmx exist!!!! There are even 3 different versions of the lambada rmx, but there is not enough (good) Transwave in it to be listed in the compilation track list, sorry. But we will post all those mixes later on our website ( UC ), for educational purpose maybe ;-). I recall that Jean Caracos, our manager at the time, was also responsible for the huge lambada hit, and asked us to do a rmx. They even pressed a vinyl version and something like 20 000 cds (4 tracks). They trashed all cds, unsellable. I guess the combination of trance music and lambada just didn’t rock enough people!!! I understand them largely. Honestly, you don’t want to hear that track!!!!”

Back in the 90’s, this was the track Transwave used to start their live sets with / Appears misnamed as ‘Bombay Nights’ [DJ Sunborn], or is wrongly credited to Talamasca. [Cosmogenesis]

Notes
• The listing on the Deedrah site mistakenly mentions Distance as label for the ‘Lambada RMX’ EP, as all other Transwave releases and compilation appearances were on Substance, a sublabel of Distance.
• According to a YouTube comment, ‘Transwave – Rezwalker (Alien Mechanic Remix)’ is probably a late remix made by an amateur artist, who claims to have produced it before the year 2007. It circulated in P2P sites as an MP3 File (192 kbps) and was initially identified as fake by IsraTrance user ‘dadoski’ (Frédéric Holyszewski) on June 3, 2006.
• Frédéric Holyszewski offered a supposedly unreleased track named ‘Transwave – XPlane’, in MP3 format (320 kbps), downloadable for 24 hours only (but still available for listening), on his Soundcloud account, on 18 October 2013. A brief description says that it is “Transwave first ever recorded track”, composed in 1993. However a member of the Rare & Unreleased Goa Facebook Group (Oldis Gold) later revealed that this track was actually ‘Quid – PPG’, released on a Black Totem EP and produced by J.C. Morin, one member of Cypher. No comment was made by Transwave members about the identification.
• The track that circulated as “Transwave vs Avi – No Name” is actually “Gangguru – Astral”.
