Album?
An untitled Mini-disc from a Greek source, copied in 12 Oct 1999. All tracks are credited to “Villy” (the name “Aztec” is not mentioned). However, instead of a bunch of Aztec tracks, this is probably a full-length Aztec album, as the track sequence provides for a good flow, there is an intro track and also a two-minute techno interlude around the middle. Tracks 8 and 9 are a continuous track, maybe even parts 1 and 2 of some track.
