No, no, no, no. You are talking about the 3-LUX series. X-MIX-1 is the fourth in the series. X-MIX-2 & 3 do not yet exist. 3-LUX (video only) the trance mix 3-LUX-2 (video only) the hard mix 3-LUX-3 (video only) the ambient mix X-MIX-1 (video,CD,vinyl) the MFS trip The concept of the series is to have a >60min video which is a DJ/VJ mix-tape. Each music track has a psychedelic video track (created by a leading European video artist). Each tape contains a compilation of a dozen or so tracks, where the music is mixed flawlessly (by a DJ) and the videos are also mixed flawlessly (by a VJ, I presume). All the artists (in both media) are credited. I suppose the series was becoming so popular that the creators decided to release the music separately (and in addition to) the videos to make more money. -malc.
