Party Mix! is a 1981 remix album by The B-52's, released in between their second album Wild Planet and the Mesopotamia EP. On the original vinyl, this six-song collection contained songs from their first two albums remixed and sequenced to form two long songs, one on each side. On the CD version, however, all the songs feature their own tracks.
In the United States,Party Mix! and a 1990 remix version of Mesopotamia were combined onto one CD, released in 1991. In the UK however, both albums were available on separate CDs. Some early pressings of Party Mix on CD feature a more yellow background than green. This was corrected on later pressings.
Mesopotamia is the first and thus far only EP by New Wave band The B-52's. It was produced by David Byrne of Talking Heads and was intended to be the band's fourth studio album; however, due to conflicts with Byrne, recording sessions were aborted prematurely and only six of ten songs to be completed were released as an EP. The album was distributed by as a vinyl record by Warner Bros. in the United States and by Island Records on both CD and vinyl in the United Kingdom and other non-US markets; confusingly, the UK Island Records vinyl contained extended versions and different takes of four songs, while the CD release was largely the same as the American version. In 1991, Mesopotamia was remixed and, combined with the Party Mix! album, was released on CD in the United States.
