Roulé Closeout

None of these tracks are really Roulé releases besides the Bob Sinclar Remix, but I figured they should be grouped together for one reason or another. They're all essentials for any collection of house music from this era.

First up is "Bob Sinclar's" Gym Tonic. It is my belief and understanding that this White Label track was stolen from Thomas Bangalter, nicely told in the story that follows, which is reprinted from the account by LeDJFaB on the discogs page:

Entirely produced by Thomas Bangalter (Daft Punk), "Gym Tonic" bacame, over the years, a kind of mythical record. According to the rumours, Bangalter didn't want the track to be released commercially. But it gained such a success as a promo that Sinclar decided to put it on his first album "Paradise", crediting himself as the main author and Bangalter as the remixer. This event leaded to several legal problems: Jane Fonda took legal actions for the uncredited use of her voice, and it finally cost around 75 000$ to clear the sample. Many opportunist, commercial dance acts stealed the main idea of the record: the most popular one, Spacedust, released "Gym And Tonic" (which even reproduce Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You" melody). Finally, Bangalter decided to "ban" Sinclar's remix of "Music Sounds Better With You" by ordering new versions of the song to Dimitri From Paris and DJ Sneak. It is unlikely that these two DJ's will ever work together again. Choose your camp.

Use your ears, i think they'll validate the story.

Up next is a track that you all know, along with a couple of amazing versions that you might not. This is another one that is/was rumored to have originated in the Thomas Bangalter/Together circle, but it seems that consensus is that Bangalter/Falcon simply got access to Eric Prydz's master tracks early on, and made their own White Label Mix, which is available below, as well as the "Played Live" version, which i have credited as from a show by Cassius & DJ Falcon at the Original Pacha Club in Ibiza on 8/13/03. If anyones got better information, do share.
