Got to work it out!

 

One of the best and possibly most under-rated remix teams out there.

WoW produced some scintillating tracks and remixes.

This one is right up there and sticks with their tried and tested formula of a long progressive build up topped off with a crescendo of blissful piano (just how I like them).

Another corker of a track, respect to the Bristol possee!

Bel Canto - We've Got To Work It Out 

(Way Out West Mix)

I go through all this...

 

Fantastic track with a faultless mix by Morales.

It is slightly more in Frankie Knuckles style, than typical Morales, but delicious all the same.

House music of the highest order.

Bjork - Hyperballad 

(David Morales Classic Mix)

Hit Me, Hit Me!

 

Love this bit of Balearic quality.

Dean Thatcher behind this one.

Top class piano in this one, still sounds great 29 years on!

Ian Dury & The Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick 

(Flying Remix)

Stay with me on this one!

Ok, I know some of you maybe thinking has PCC gone mad, posting the Vengaboys.

Fear not, as you know only top class dance music is posted on this blog and this track is just that.

Hat's off to Airscape for a top notch remix.

Enjoy!

Vengaboys - Kiss (When The Sun Don't Shine) 

(Airscape Remix)

Make sure you Get It Right!

 

The Project are better know for their stupendous "Out Of Control" a big fave on the PCC blog and posted a few times before.

This is not quite at that very high standard, but still worth of PCC status.

It has a very similar vibe, with the piano, vocals and the little bit of rap thrown in for good measure.

Another great Old Skool track.

Enjoy!

The Project feat Linda Rice - Get It Right 

(FHR's Club Mix)

Definitely Happenin' All Over Again!

 

Missed this version first time around and only came across it recently.

Top notch remix though and so much better than the original versions which were overplayed and too commercial.

If you like your piano and Old Skool, then this ones for you.

You know it!

Lonnie Gordon - Happenin' All Over Again 

(Haarsh Reality Remix)

Staying on the faster tempo, here's a great piece of Trance just as we like it.

Fantastic breathy vocals and as ever a great remix by Matt Darey.

A really great pumping piece of quality trance music, an essential component of a well balanced dance music diet.

20 years old, it still knocks the pants of any of this commercial crap trance produced nowadays.

Enjoy!

Delerium - Heaven's Earth 

(Matt Darey Remix) 

Raising the tempo!

This track was a real banger back in't day.

A bit of contrast in tempo to the last track posted, but that is the beauty of dance music it comes in all shapes and sizes and good is good regardless of tempo.

This is a real stomper which epitomised the type of tracks Tony De Vit used to play.

Tony was a great DJ and also produced and remixed many top notch tracks (R.I.P and respect).

This is certainly on the harder side of tracks you'll see on this blog, but is hopefully one you'll enjoy?

99th Floor Elevators - Hooked 

(Tony De Vit Mix)

Pure Balearic Bliss!

Those of you who have frequented the PCC blog before will be aware of my love of all things Balearic.

This is a true Balearic classic. Perfect for those balmy (or barmy) summer nights, or equally for those chilled Sunday mornings.

Balearic Beats in the house.

This is 25 years old, but still sounds fantastic.

D*Note ‎– The Garden Of Earthly Delights 

(Original Version)

We Rock The Best? - We certainly do!

A quality old skool track, lots of great piano and boundless energy.

This one was from 1996 and was part of double A 12".

The other side was quality also and worthy of PCC status and will be posted in due course.

Those that like their tracks "Hands In The Air" style-ee will enjoy this.

2-4-U  - We Rock The Best

Go on Frankie - Check out this mix!

Everyone will be familiar with the traditional classic Voodoo Ray track, but this mix is less well known but IMHO truly sensational.

Frankie Knuckles (R.I.P) was arguably the most influential person in House music - period!

His remix work is always outstanding and this mix is truly fabulous. David Morales on percussion for good measure.

This is now 31 years old and still sounds amazing. A true PCC timeless classic!

Enjoy!

A Guy Called Gerald ‎– Voodoo Ray 

( Frankie Knuckles Paradise Ballroom Mix)

PCC is back (again)!

Well after previously deciding that I wouldn't be posting tracks on the PCC blog anymore, I've taken a U-Turn on that decision and will be starting back up with regular new posts.

There are a few reasons for the change, firstly I've got a little more free time then I had previously which is a big factor. Secondly there are just so many great tracks yet to post and share. I think I've probably posted most of my all time faves, but there are still tracks out there that I'm unearthing. forgotten about or haven't heard for years. Those sort of tracks which send that tingle down your spine, they are so good.

Another key reason for starting up again, is that I've realised despite all the different social media outlets, there probably isn't anything (I've come across) which lists and tabulates all the great tracks in one place. I've realised that the PCC blog is probably one of the best reference points for all the great tracks which we loved and enjoyed from the Acid House era in '87 through to the "death of UK clubbing" (as we knew it) in 2000.

All reasons to get this thing started again.

All posts will be direct links to tracks which are on YouTube.

The purpose is to share those wonderful tracks which gave us our fantastic never to be forgotten memories of an era of dance music which changed all our lives for the better.

Keep checking in, keep dropping comments and keep suggesting any tracks which you think are worthy of PCC status and have yet to be posted.

Viva la PCC!

Here's kicking off with a great house track from 1995 which was a big Hacienda fave hammered by Parky.

Enjoy!!

D'Bora - Good Love Real Love 

(Maurice's Real Club Mix)
