3 in 1 feels so right!

Really surprised that I haven't posted this one before now.

Certainly an oversight and maybe it was because it was a tad overplayed.

Anyway well overdue a post, this was a huge track back in 1993 and was always superb on the dancefloor.

I've spoiling you here with 3 superb versions to choose from.

The original Victor Simonelli version which is excellent.

A superb remix from those Nush boys who always knew how to spice up a track and add layers of fantastic piano.

Then there's a newer version from 2022 from Odyssey Inc. which is also pretty corkin'.

If I had to choose one I think the Nush version just shades it for their lush piano.

Victor Simonelli Presents Solution - Feels So Right 

(Solutions Original Mix 1993)
 

Solution - Feels so Right 

(Nush Club Mix)

Solution - Feels so Right 

(Odyssey Inc. Remix)

Yeah, come on!

I'm a big fan of Odyssey Inc and just love the feel of their tracks.

The vocals are always spot on and there's loads of piano thrown in.

This is real quality house music which is perfect for the dancefloor.

Soulful, vibey and just very compelling.

The male and the female vocals are just so complementary.

A cracking track!

I love it when you shake it like that aha!

Odyssey Inc. & Wayne Soul Avengerz - Too Close 

(Extended Mix)

The salsa sound of summer!

Another great new track from Parky's radio show.

It is full of trumpets, guitar and funky synths which give a great summer latino/salsa vibe, but for me it's all about the tempo change at 2.50.

From that moment the track reaches another level and just oozes euphoria.

Another track which if used effectively could be devastating on the dancefloor.

A real little beauty this one, very nice indeed!

Rubim de Toledo - Out From Under 

(Paul Conway presents Mioga Remix)

Symphony of the Night!

A track that's been around a good few years now, but always sounds great.

Dennis Ferrer is always a symbol of top quality house tracks.

This is piano-tastic from the get-go.

It contains lots of great synth noises and some good vocal chants, backed with a first beat and then the pounding piano breaks and it makes a hell of a track.

Another one which would be superb on the dancefloor and I'm sure would get some great crowd reaction.

Bangin'!

Dennis Ferrer - Sinfonia Della Notte 

(Original Mix)

Dat, come on!

Been chasing this one for a few weeks now after hearing it on Parky's superb radio show.

Just love the simplicity yet the effectiveness of this track.

A sure-fire dnacefloor smash in any club, just drop this and watch the crowd lose it.

Top notch from start to finish with some great energetic piano that builds and rocks.

Simple, but oh so effective, just lovely!

No vocals with this one, but in this instance none required.

It's no swindle!

Dat, come on!

Dam Swindle - I Met Her Last Summer

Just to be alive is a natural high!

Staying on the classy house vibe, here's another underrated classic.

A big track championed by Tony Humphries it's class still shines through.

Another track with great lyrics, great vocals and great piano.

A key focus of the PCC blog was always to champion great dance music new or old and this is another quality piece.

Another track which would still go down a storm today.

A definite Natural High!

Tracie Daves - We Can Make It 

(Satin Mix)

We need another.....holiday!

Whenever you hear the name Michael Gray you just know it's going to be quality.

He's been around the scent for several decades producing fantastic house music under his various guises, as Greed, Hustlers Convention, Full Intention.

This is yet another piece of classy house music from Mr Gray.

It's been around a good 12 months or so, but feels very fresh.

Close your eyes, dreaming paradise!

Michael Gray featuring Sian-Lee - Another Holiday 

(Extended Mix)

If I go out every night!

Corking track from 1996 (although originally released in 1986), very much in the Graeme Park stylee - that being classy house music.

Love everything about this track, great lyrics, great vocals, great house groove and some superb piano.

Just a top notch house classic.

This would still go down a storm on any club dancefloor.

Timeless.

H2O - Nobody's Business 

(Main Vocal Mix) 

Have you ever been lost?

 This is new and a bit tasty.

A belter championed on Parky's excellent radio show.

Great vibrant uplifting house feel, some excellent vocals by Candice Chavez, some great piano and an overall excellent piece of production as usual from Mark Picchiotti.

This one will be a biggie in the most discerning clubs.

Enjoy!

Mark Picchiotti featuring Candice Chavez 

- My Soul Cries Out (Extended Mix) 

Viva la old skool!

This one has been in my "to post" folder for ages, but one I'd not got round to.

A quality bit of old skool with some great piano from 1993.

A proper hands in the air old piano classic and I must say underplayed and underrated little gem.

I don't ever remember it played out but it may well of been.

A proper little banger though, so do enjoy!

Interesting little fact about this one, it was recorded on a Sunday morning in 1993 after an all-nighter at Bowlers Trafford Park Manchester.

Had many a cracking night at Bowlers back int'day - proper old skool!

Viva la old skool!

K.O.T.T. - Time To Let Go

(Original White Label)

I let my fantasies run free!

Super house remix from Danny Tenaglia, right up there with his best.

The original version is a classic Disco track from 1978.

However, Danny's superb remix from 1994 transforms it into an absolute house classic.

A belter of a track and one which definitely slipped a bit under the radar, as it was widely played in the clubs and should have been much bigger.

A real hidden gem this one.

When the world is sleeping peacefully, I let my fantasies run free!

T-Connection - At Midnight

(Danny Tenaglia's Faithful Mix)

Respect to two music legends!

Manchester vibes in the place (although more on the Balearic tip, than club dance)!

A superb track which encapsulates the Manchester and later Madchester scene which we were so very much part of.

The clubs, the bands, the songs, the fashion, the clothes, the attitude, were such a huge part of my teenage years and early 20's.

The music lives on and still stands the test of time.

This is an amazing tribute to the late Tony Wilson, TV presenter, king pin of the Hacienda and at the forefront of the Manchester music scene in the 80's and 90's. Heady times indeed.

A great tribute by all those in the video and effectively using the magnificent New Order track Your Silent Face.

A great remix by the legend Andy Weatherall, with some amazing strings.

R.I.P Tony and Andy.

I couldn't resist also posting the amazing New Order track which inspired this record, as it was always one of my faves growing up.

Pure class!

Mike Garry & Joe Duddell - St Anthony: 

An Ode to Anthony H Wilson 

(Andrew Weatherall Remix)

I always loved the following lyrics, just so real!

You've caught me at a bad time. So, why don't you piss off?

New Order - Your Silent Face

Reach for it!

Another slice of Disco heaven from the legendary Dave Lee.

This is again, new but very disco-tastic and hence sounds very 70's.

Superb vocals, superb production and laced with great piano.

A real cracker and right on the money!

I won't ask questions baby, of how you spend your time!

Come on reach for it!

The Sunburst Band & Dave Lee feat. Tiffany T'zelle] 

- Reach For My Love (Extended Mix) 

Won't you stay!

A classic old skool track from 1990.

Great vocals and just a great uplifting positivity about the whole track.

Not a track that was too widely played, but a bit of hidden gem.

Take me to paradise!

Yes please!

M.C.J. featuring Sima - (To Yourself) Be Free 

(Dream remix)

Got to find, got to find!

Quality piece of classy house music from 1993.

A big track at Hard Times which was one of the leading house nights in the North back int'day.

Had many a good night there, both in the Mirfield venue and also in the church venue in Huddersfield.

The track comes courtesy of a great Ralphie Rosario remix and is pure classic house with a great groove and some stonking piano.

Top notch house music.

Got to find out if there is peace in other places!

Tommye - I Need To Go Away 

(The Ralphie Treatment)

Gone but never to be forgotten!

It was with great sadness that music lost one of it's true legends this week.

Dolly was everything to music, not only one of the greatest country singers, she also transferred her amazing vocals to the pop world and even to the dance world.

Universally loved by everyone for her persona and sweet image, she will be sadly missed by all music fans.

I've already posted her most epic dance track the amazing Peace Train with a sensational Junior Vasquez remix which is out of this world.

This is a great club remix of one of her most famous tracks.

R.I.P. Dolly you were one of a kind!

Dolly Parton - 9 to 5 

(DMC DJ Only remix)

Delightful!

Love this which is new but old at the same time.

As soon as you see the name Dave Lee aka Joey Negro, you just know two things, firstly it will be a super quality production and secondly it will be Disco-ified with a new modern twist.

The man is a Disco/House legend and his longevity combined with his prolific production cadence stand him on the very top step of dance music royalty.

The track combines a great rap with some delightful disco rhythms and sounds.

Right on, as always!

Xanadu & Sweet Lady - Dave 'Love' Lee - Rappers Delight 

(Dave 'Love' Lee Sureshot Mix)

Uber-talented!

I don't feel that J.Lo ever really got the credit for what she achieved as a pop star.

All her songs were top notch and when remixed they were real dancefloor bangers and this one is exactly that.

Great remix by Thunderpuss, but also a great vocal performance by the delightful Ms Lopez.

I'll put it out there that Jennifer is the greatest pop star/actress (e.g. reached the absolute pinnacle of both careers) there has ever been.

Go girl!

Jennifer Lopez - Feelin' So Good 

(Thunderpuss Club Mix)

There's a great big world out there!

Stone cold house classic from 1996.

Great vocals, great production and of course great piano.

Also some great lyrics, even pinching a few lines out of "I Will Survive".

There were lots of remixes of this one, but nothing touched this version.

Still sounds great today and would still rock any club dancefloor.

Enjoy!

 Moné - Movin' 

(Jazz-N-Groove Main Vocal Mix)

I can stay by your side forever!

Staying on the Jaakko Eino Kalevi front, this is new and pretty sensational.

Everything Prins Thomas touches is just magic and he is certainly one of the hottest remixers out there at the moment.

His remixes are just so classy and well produced.

This is another great track, with such a great aura.

I could imagine this being fantastic as a track early in a set to build on.

Glorious, dance music at it's finest.

Jaakko Eino Kalevi - Black Diamond 

(Prins Thomas Diskomiks)

I told you how it's gonna be!

Loving this, great track and a great remix from a few years ago.

Really great atmosphere and some excellent soothing blissful vocals.

A really great track which just oozes class.

Just wait until the sax kicks in, very nice!

I told you how it's gonna be, you're the one that holds the key!

Jaakko Eino Kalevi - Palace In My Head 

(Fred Falke Extended Club Remix)

Sing it to you!

A truly fantastic remix of a classic.

This will be huge in Ibiza this year guaranteed.

I couldn't find a link on youtube yet, so thanks to Pete Maude for the link to his soundcloud.

The track features the huge vocal prowess of the great Kathy Sledge (also of Sister Sledge fame) and the fiercest bit of piano you are likely to hear.

This will literally blow the roof off and is a track I'd love to hear in a good club.

Any budding DJs out there, drop this at peak hour in your set and watch it explode.

Guaranteed!

Sing it to you!

Kathy Sledge - Another Star 

(Eivissa Mix)

https://soundcloud.com/silver-fox-kt/another-star-eivissa-mix-wav

You give me, just that little bit more!

It's not a patch on Parky's original remix from 1992 which was a huge fave of ours and massive at the Hac back int'day.

It is however certainly worth a post as the track in itself is such a great one.

This remix is much slower and laidback than Parky's and doesn't have that same fizz and excitement, it is however still a very good track worthy of PCC status.

You really, really know how to make me feel...

Maria Rowe - Sexual 

(Sophie Lloyd Rework)

I am in so deep!

Cracking track from 1991 which was a regular feature of Sasha's sets when he was the man back in the early 90's.

I never really enjoyed Gloria Estefan's tracks, but this remix really cuts it.

I think it is the additional element of the piano alongside the crunchy house beats.

The rest is ok and Gloria's vocals are always strong.

A nice blast from the past though.

Gloria Estefan - Live For Loving You 

(Tommy Musto Underground Club Mix)

It's time to live again right now!

Jeanie Tracy was always a cracking vocalist and Tin Tin Out always made superb and consistently good remixes, so it comes as no surprise that this track from 1995 is a bit of a banger.

The vocals are soaring, the piano kicks in and you're off.

Great builds and energetic sequences create a pretty spanking tune.

Finally realised that you're not worth it!

It's my time to stand up and shout!

Jeanie Tracy - It's My Time 

(Tin Tin Out Mix)

We dance until the break of day!

Catchy little number which caught my ear recently.

It's been around for a few months but as mentioned has a nice feel to it.

Lots of piano and some decent vocals alongside a groovin' house beat and some slick production.

I'm sure it'll be one which goes down well in the clubs.

Let the melody carry us away!

DJ Fudge - Carry Us Away

Epic-ness in the house!

For those of you like me who used to adore Where Love Lies, but then started to dislike it as it became so overplayed that it became tedious and that was before the Jon Lewis advert.

Well fear not, if you felt that way grab a piece of this.

It is exquisite and gives Where Loves Life new life, a completely different feel and yet keeps all the superb bits, speeds them up a little at times from a beautiful slow build up but just creates a feel that I haven't felt for this track since it's hey day when it was first released back in 1990.

Quite simply one of the finest reworkings in house history - yes that epic.

Pure class from 1996, still sounding amazing 30 years on.

Andrew Pearce Vs The Reese Project - Where Love Lives 

(The Serial Diva Remix)

New but old!

A pretty good reworking of the old Sterling Void classic.

It adds some extra bounce and some cracking piano and will no doubt sound new to the kids who don't remember the original.

A tasty reworking that doesn't sound cheesy for one!

Tenacious & Roland Clark - Alright

Halle, Halle!

This is new and very tasty.

Very much on the Gospel House vibe, with some great vocals and excellent aura.

Cracking remix also and some fine production.

Sure to delight the dancefloor this one.

Halle, Halle!

Revival House Project featuring Nambi - Joyful Noise 

(Sam Ruffillo Extended Remix)

Follow your star!

Really surprised I've not posted this one before now.

A real house classic and a big Hac track played by Parky from 1995.

Great vocals by Kathy as always and some great remix work from the S Man.

Just oozes quality from every pore!

Kathy Sledge - Another Star 

(Roger's Ultimate Anthem Mix)

Follow the footprints!

Nick Bracegirdle's Disco Citizen's work was another level and so much better than his more commercial front as Chicane.

This is another great track and although not quite as good as some of his best Disco Citizens tracks previously posted it is still pretty tasty all the same.

Enjoy!

Disco Citizens - Footprint 

(97 Revamp)

Pulsing!

I've not posted too much trance recently, but it it a genre of dance music I've always loved.

Those later 90's tracks were just amazing and though the scene IMHO was pretty much dead after 2000, the tracks of that time were many and epic.

This is one such track.

Pounding, vibing, ups, downs, builds and explosions.

A top trance track.

Enjoy!

Pulser - Cloudwalking 

(Astral Mix) 

It's you!

Quality track from 1992.

That piano just hits the sweet spot and combined with the great ethereal vocals instantly grabs your attention.

Sounds a touch dated now, but still has an exciting aura about it.

It's you, that I want, it's you that I need, it's you!

Love the last line.

What this ain't serious?

Sheer Taft Featuring Mito – Atlantis

(Vocal Mix)

I've got to break away!

Quality piece of house music from 1996.

Superb vocals, great groove and some corking piano.

Really classy house music, lively pumping and grooving!

30 years on still sounding fresh and on point.

I've got my pride - I've got to break away!

Taktix - Pride And Self Respect 

(Jazz 'N' Groove Vocal Mix)

A true masterpiece!

I love Simon O'Shine's work it combines trance and dream music and is just so emotionally touching.

This track is a true masterpiece and almost classical.

It has amazing breakdowns, build up, mood and tempo changes.

A really stunning piece of aural pleasure.

Timeless and just so pure.

Heavenly!

Simon O'Shine - Your Distant World 

(Original Mix)

Respect to one of the GOATS!

Great to see Oakey still at it.

This is new and is pretty spanking.

Fast paced, energetic and enough to send you into orbit.

Oakey has always been at the cutting edge of new dance music and I sometimes feel he is less acknowledged than people like Sasha (who has a God-like status) which I feel is much more appropriate to Oakey.

Oakey was there at the very beginning and was largely responsible for the Acid House boom which created club culture as we knew to love it.

Respect - he will always be recognised as a one of the true GOATs in my mind!

Paul Oakenfold & Daxson - RAMsterdam 

(Extended Mix)

One, two, three, four!

A little old skool gem.

Using many samples and cooking them all up nicely.

It's a catchy little vibe, maybe a tad too commercial, but endearing all the same.

Enjoy!

S - Bam - I Want My Freedom 

(Remix)

Only a fool could walk away from me this time!

Ooh this is a great combo.

Ultra cool remix by PDM up there with one of his best (no faint praise there).

Jay Kay's music is so made for remixing into great dance music as his vocals and his own production are always top notch.

A really great example of how a good pop track can be dancified to make a great club track.

Kudos to both artist and remixer!

Only a fool could walk away from me this time!

Jamiroquai - Cloud 9 

(Purple Disco Machine Remix)

Leave you in the summertime!

Superb remix of a Led Zeppelin classic.

Quivver did some great remixes.

This was big in an Oakey Essential Mix, if I remember correctly.

Probably not liked by LZ fans, but a really great piece of remix work which I think uses the original really well and creates a real dancefloor epic.

Quality from start to finish.

Led Zeppelin - Babe I'm Gonna Leave You 

(The Quivver Mix)

Boyzone on the PCC blog, well I never!

Boyzone on the PCC blog, I'd of never dreamt of that.

Stay with it though folks, as they are only here courtesy of yet another barnstorming remix from the genius of TE.

The consistency and amazingly high standard of all TE remixes is quite remarkable.

This is good as it contains very little Boyzone and is mainly TE just rockin' the gaff with another thunderous production.

Pure Class designed for the Club!

Enjoy!

Boyzone - All That I Need 

(Trouser Enthusiasts Darkness Day Dub) (No Sex Mix)

I want to start the day fresh!

This is a slice of heaven.

Again very chilled and very lovely.

A perfect Cafe Del Mar track, it's just got a great aura about it and the piano is delightful.

Lovely vocals and super lyrics, very upbeat, proper Balearic bliss.

Welcome to a nu day!

Lem Springsteen · Imaani - A Nu Day (Welcome) 

(Cubanix Remix)

Gonna change your life!

Only you can change your life!

Love this, really groovy with some great vocals and a really captivating little chuggy beat.

I've always been a fan of whispered vocals.

This is such a fab little track.

Will it change your life?

Enjoy!

Sam Curran, Harry Unsworth, Charlotte Flannery 

- Take Control 

(Extended Mix) · 

It's the way you love with purity and truth!

More classic house music of the highest quality.

This time courtesy of a fabulous remix by the legend that was Frankie.

This is very much in his classic style and classy in everyway.

Great vocals, sumptuous piano just so smooth and easy on the ear.

Delightful!

Andrea Mendez - Bring Me Love 

(Classic Frankie Mix)

Can you feel my love?

Absolute corker of a track from 1994.

Courtesy of a great remix by Mr Morales and some very powerful vocals from Lonnie Gordon.

The piano in this is pure class and just brings so much life to this track.

Top class house music.

This track should have been much bigger and is one which escaped my initial attention.

It was one which I don't ever recall hearing out in the clubs.

Very much on an Allister Whitehead type of vibe.

Quality!

Lonnie Gordon - Do You Want It 

(Bad Yard Club Mix)

Stormy weather ahead!

Always got a soft spot for Erasure.

They were one of the bands which I totally loved as a young teen and their sound and consistency was always super impressive.

Anything Vince Clarke ever touched just pure gold whether for Depeche, Yazoo, The Assembly or of course Erasure.

The Clarke-Bell collaborations were always magic with Andy's great vocal prowess and Vince's technical genius.

This track just epitomises the Erasure quality coupled with a great 7th Heaven and you have a great pop track with just enough club vibe to sneak it into PCC status.

Think about it baby!

Erasure - Just A Little Love 

(7th Heaven Club Remix)

Thrilled to bits!

Staying on the Thrillseekers vibe, I couldn't resist posting this.

Just an piece of aural delight.

Steve Helstrip's trance work was always super special and this is another exquisite remix.

The breakdowns on this are so chilled but so energising at the same time.

A real trance masterpiece.

Usual Aspect - Mr Blue 

(Thrillseekers Remix)

Feel the emotion!

 A fine piece of trance from 2004 with a cracking Thrillseekers remix.

It hits all the key spots with lots of driving energy, tempo changes and a great overall vibe.

When done well trance is always such a great genre.

This would still down well in any club.

Right on!

Witness Of Wonder - Emotion In Motion 

(Thrillseekers Remix)

I need you baby!

A sublime piece of classic house music.

Superb vocals, great lyrics, sublime production from Frankie and some lush piano chords.

A really fantastic track quite reminiscent of Luther and Janet's - Best Things In Life Are Free (yes it's that good).

Musical perfection - not far off!

Will Downing - There's No Living Without You 

(Classic Club Mix)

Why do you have to drop that bomb on me?

Apologies, it's a month late (e.g. June has just passed), but great to hear this.

Jay Kay at his best with great vocal delivery combined with a sublime Ashly Beedle remix.

When Ashley's on it, he's on it.

This is a just such a glorious summer track.

Pure class!

Why do you have to drop that bomb on me?

Jamiroquai - Seven Days in Sunny June 

(Ashley Beedle Heavy Disco Vocal Remix)

Simply divine!

One of BT's finest moments.

This track for me captured all his musical talents, some spine tingling piano, some great bird noises and aural sound effects which just took you on a building trance journey.

Possibly not as dancefloor friendly as some tracks, but it was very nicely produced.

It was also pretty trailblazing at that time in 1995 and certainly captured Sasha's attention who was deeply inspired by BT.

The piano breakdown from 7 mins 53 secs in is just heavenly and simple divine!

Enjoy the journey!

BT - Divinity
