Does anyone have recordings of Paul Oakenfold's Urban Soundtracks? For those not in the know, the Urban Soundtracks was a monthly broadcast. The broadcast was set to a mix of trance/house music and well-known (to some at least) stories, such as Jack the Ripper, Oliver Twist, Alice in Wonderland, etc., which were read by famous British actors. They were broadcast on Galaxy 105 in the UK from 1999 to 2002(?).
As far as I can tell, they were never released on CD, or any other media but radio. Galaxy 105 didn't actually produce the Urban Soundtracks, but UBC(S) Media(?), who has not done anything with them since.
I've been looking for them off and on for a year and have only been able to get Jack the Ripper and Oliver Twist. The full list is here:
Filth
With Your Tongue Down My Throat
I Hate You and I Hate Your Jesus
Paper
Sopranos
Powder
Girlfriend in a Coma
High Fidelity
Come Together
The Business
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
A Christmas Carol
Alice in Wonderland
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Treasure Island
Frankenstein
Pinocchio
The Jungle Book
Oliver Twist
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Dracula
The Little Mermaid
Snow Queen
Cleopatra
Jack the Ripper
Fall of the House of Usher
Robin Hood
Hercules
Ben Hur
Wind in the Willows
Heart of Darkness
Hunchback of Notre Dame
The Count of Monte Cristo
The Water Babies
Beauty and the Beast
If anyone can help me find any of these, I would be greatly appreciate it
