this is hilarious. they've mashed up old speed racer sound clips with techno music. on the hardcore remix, it sounds like speed and trixie are having sex.

Totally choice Techno tracks

"I'm not surprised that this CD single is impossible to find. I wouldn't have even known about it if I hadn't heard the single on the local college radio station in '91. And THEY didn't play the hardcore mix, either. There were probably only a few thousand pressed, since it was essentially a DJ mix. If you find it, grab it. Best 6:30 of techno + laffs I ever heard."
Better put it in a safe!

"great album, but EXTREMELY hard to find. i have one of these, but it had a scratch on it (GASP!) so i just ordered 2 copies (hoping it is still in stock). if you are lucky enough to have one of these albums, guard it with your life! all you have to do is listen once to this single to know it is something truly extraordinary."
Go Speed Gooooo

"I love this re-mix of the original track that I have. The 3rd re-mix is the naughtiest and the funniest. A great cd to listen to while i go 90 miles down the highway (not, that, i, uh, have gone 90 miles down the highway or anything...). Definitely, one of my better purchases as of late."

"Indeed this a very hard CD to find.I had the cassette maxi-single back in the day.I was very lucky to find it at a Camelot
music store here in New Orleans.Alpha Team also did a follow up single to this one called "This is Racer-X",which is even MORE rare.I bought it played the hell out of it and then gave it to my friend,who still has it to this day.I think I want it back.
I still listen to Alpha Team just because of the memories."
Techno plus Retro Speed Racer

"Great album, capturing the high-speed excitement of Speed Racer. Brilliant homage to the TV series that started the whole anime craze. The big payoff is the "Hardcore" track, which adds a very funny element of some interesting, um, interaction between Speed and Trixie. Don't miss the punchline in the final 10 seconds."
