End of Show (post-outtakes) Bonus Tracks (not included in this mixtape): 

1. Time Trax - Stage 2 (theoretical 55Hz vers - this was the composer’s intended speed - would not actually sound this way on any region Genesis / Mega Drive - composer was aiming for the middle between fast 60Hz NTSC units and slow 50Hz PAL units)

2. Time Trax - Stage 2 (60Hz - NTSC speed. This is how the track would’ve sounded on NA or JP Genesis / Mega Drive - remember that the 50Hz version is included in the episode - and in today’s playlist, and is how the track would’ve sounded on a PAL (EU) Mega Drive)
