Want to feel special again?

Most sense to post this following the last post.

Top class house track with a great remix from George Morel.

I'm pretty certain the lyrics would have been lifted from another (older) track but I may be wrong.

Can anyone confirm?

Regardless enjoy the track, because it is "Special".

Sir James - Special 

(Pumped Up Mix)

Want to feel special?

This is quite an obscure old classic, but from nice.

Taken from the Quabala EP.

It contains those widely sampled lyrics from the Sir James' track "Special" from 1990, which also featured on "Cordial - Candleight", "Medium High - The Pleasure" and "Bump - I'm Rushin'", 

I love it when the piano chords come in at the end, which is a great way to finish.

The Forgemasters - Shall We 

(Special Remix)

This is no illusion!

A fabulous house track from 1994 from the "God 'O Might EP".

Just quality house music coupled with some equally fantastic piano.

It keeps you captivated throughout the track.

I never heard this out in a club, but can imagine it would set the dancefloor alight.

Enjoy!

DJ Dove - Illusions

Remember this one?

Always loved this track.

It's one of those that you probably wouldn't know by title and then as soon as it starts you'll remember it.

Loads of energy and of course some scintillating piano.

A really fantastic old skool piano anthem from 1992.

Enjoy!

Circus Of Sphere - Stir The Pulses 

(Siren Touch)

Anyone for some more piano?

Cracking piano based track coupled with Aborigine chants and a few Jingo shouts and a little bit of rap for good measure.

Just love the skippy piano in this, very infecticious.

Enjoy!

Pianonegro - Pianonegro 

(Extended Mix)

Listen to the Masters!

Totally superb track which instantly grabs you from the opening piano chords.

Chilled to perfection, yet it keeps you entranced throughout the track.

A really superb track.

If you like your Balearic Beats you'll love this.

Enjoy!

Masters Of The Universe - Space Talk 

(Hyper Spaced Mix)

Feel the Acid!

 

Totally love this track from 1988.

Proper acid squelch from the Roland TB303 on this track.

Still sounds amazing 32 years on and far better than any of the EDM out today!

Zsa Zsa Laboum - Something Scary

Back in France!

I know this has been posted on the blog previously but that was the Mars Mix which IMHO is still the best mix and especially when heard in a club.

However, I also love this mix which is a lot more laid back and chilled, but still excellent all the same.

Another true PCC. 

28 years old and still sounds amazing!

Enjoy!

THK - France 

(Sweet Extasy Mix)

Everybody wants to be....Bourgie, Bourgie!

 I'd previously posted the Ashord & Simpson version and other associated mixes, but it's such a fabulous track that it is certainly worth another post.

An absolute PCC.

Great remix by Dave Lee(who has now abandoned the Joey Negro monicker).

His remixes always respect the original and tweak and enhance, like all good remixes should.

Close to perfection!

Enjoy!

Gladys Knight & The Pips – Bourgie', Bourgie' 

(Joey Negro Super Bourgeoisie Remix)

Who likes a bit of piano?

Well this one actually contains a lot of piano.

It's and absolute monster of a track with some fantastic piano.

All you "old skoolers" out there will love it!

Enjoy!

Void - Destiny 

(Orcana Part 2)

Are you sitting comfortably?

Don't be put off my the remix title, there is nothing "techno" about this.

It's another Italian piano house classic.

"Are you sitting comfortably?"

P. Lion Burn In His Hands 

(Techno Mix)

A day in the life of classic house!

Just a pure class timeless classic.

Typical Todd Terry production with those unique "crunchy" beats.

A great bit of piano kicks in which has "Santa Anna" vibes.

32 years old and it still sounds amazing!

Classic house music at it's very best!

Black Riot - A Day In The Life

(Club Mix)

Here we go, here we go again!

A big favourite of mine.

In that classic Ibizian Balearic style that we all know and love.

Beautiful chilled vibes, lush piano and some very catchy hip-house lyrics.

You heard the man "Pump it up house people"

Paradiso - Here We Go Again 

(Stairway To Heaven Mix)

Ready for something Epic!

You quite often hear of a track being classed as "Epic" and I must admit I do it frequently.

It's usually to describe something that it truly awesome and really blows your mind.

Well let me tell you that this track is truly "Epic".

From start to finish it is captivating with beautiful piano chords and then some lush hard edged trance.

A top, top quality track from 1994. They don't make them like this anymore (sadly)!

Union Jack - Two Full Moons & A Trout 

(Caspar Pound Mix)

Feel the summer vibes!

Love this track.

The piano is amazing as are the lovely chilled vocals.

A proper summer song which will hopefully brighten the spirits.

Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez, and Louie Vega true house legends and one of the most consistent and prolific producers and remixers out there.

I'm not a fan of drum and bass at all, but love this 4 Hero remix.

Enjoy!

Nuyorican Soul - I Am The Black Gold Of The Sun 

(4 Hero Remix)

To the moon and back!

 Fantastic bit of laid back trance from 1996.

Yet another track which truly stands the test of time.

The whole track has a fantastic aura about it.

Top notch!

Moonman - Galaxia

(Original Mix)

For your love, I would give the stars above!

 Quality bit of disco from 1978.

Here in all it's full 12 minutes worth of glory.

I never get tired of hearing this track.

Your parents may know the 60's version by The Yardbirds better!

This is just a timeless classic!

Chilly - For Your Love And For Your Love Suite

The Sharif don't like it!

 A bonafide classic in it's own right, but turned into a true PCC with this quality remix.

Just check out the piano in this remix. Top class.

It makes an already great track even better.

This is what remixing is all about.

The Clash - Rock The Casbah 

(A Pied Piper Remix)

Who needs a freak?

 Absolute classic track from, 1988.

Of course based on the fabulous Diana Ross track - Love Hangover.

Some great piano in this and superb use of the sample.

32 years on and it still sounds fantastic!

S.L.Y. - I Need A Freak 

(99th Street Piano Mix)

Cold chills down my spine!

 

Yet another track with the classic "Cold chills down my spine" lyrics.

Check out earlier blog post for more on this, on the link below

Pure Club Classics: Oh the joy of dance music, sampling and sharing!!

This track is your classic Italian House piano track.

Very similar to Joy and Joyce's track also.

All are great tracks.

Rhythm of Life - Touch Me

(Original Mix)

Can you feel it???

 Can't quite believe that I haven't posted this before.

This is house music gold from the legend that is Todd Terry.

Totally timeless, this was always sensational in a club.

Fond memories of Todd Terry playing this at L'America, Leeds Corn Exchange back in 1993.

Can you feel it??

CLS - Can You Feel It 

Feel the Symphony!

Another quality track from 1992.

There are some great remixes of this, but this one is IMHO the pick of the bunch.

Enjoy!

Transformer 2 - Pacific Symphony Too 

(Italian Smooth Remix)

Old skool techno!

 A classic piece of old skool techno which still sounds great today.

This one dates back to 1988 and was a big track back in'day.

It contains a lot of the bleeps which were pretty big at the time.

Enjoy!

Neal Howard - To Be Or Not To Be?

Feel the magic!

 

A bit of quality house music from 1991.

Just a really great track, great vocals, lyrics, great production, some lovely subtle piano and even a little bit of sax thrown in for good measure.

A really great timeless classic.

Funk Machine feat. Katie Thompson - I've Closed The Door 

(Lungo Mix)
