his year's title came courtesy of Ali G. The theme this year is girls, girls, girls! Sexy girls! Naughty girls! Freaky girls!

The main image comes from a photograph published in Peter Saville's monograph. This was the only time where the track listing appeared on the front cover of our annual mix CD. Think graphic design exercise. Incidentally, 'mix no. 113' referred to the fact that this was the 113th mix of cassette tapes or CDs we had made since we were undergraduates. By this point though, we were already half-heartedly adhering to this numbering system, and we would eventually give it up entirely by 2008's compilation, finalising with mix no. 117. Incidentally, in case you cannot read in the image reproduction, the caption printed on the back cover of the CD, it reads:

'...next time you want pussy, just look in the mirror, baby.' --M. Ciccone
