Oh yeah - what do you reckon(er)?


When you bring the brilliance of Radiohead and Above and Beyond together you just know you're going to get something special and this is exactly that.

This is from 2008 and is just a superb track, A&B were cement their status as one of the best trance remixes and the tortured excellence of Radiohead is very clear to see.

That piano breakdown is just heaven!

Get on it!

Radiohead - Reckoner 

(Above & Beyond Remix)

Feel the difference?

Nothing original about this old skool banger from 1991.

It samples from just about anywhere, however that doesn't detract from it being a catchy little track.

Certainly not the most original, but nice all the same.

I want to thank you for the joy you give!

Tasty little number from 1995.

Not quite as spectacular as Someday, but good all the same.

Pretty decent remix by Gems For Jems as per usual.

Enjoy!

Call the cheese police?


I shouldn't like this, but I do.

A slightly cheesy Eurobeat version of the Aerosmith classic.

Yes, it's cheesy but it's still a pretty decent effort and it does sound great.

Some great vocals by Tasmin.

Give it a go a bit of cheese is healthy for a good all round dance music diet!

You make me hot!


 Great piece of uplifting house from 1995.

Great vocals, great piano, quality house music just as we like it.

Great remix from Mark P.

The lyrics are a bit cheesey, but this doesn't detract from it being a great track

"You take me higher and higher, 

You fulfil my desires!"

Enjoy!

My all time winner!


Staying on the disco classics, this is a slice of heaven from 1984.

Like many tracks from that era the production is just superb and really stands out.

The authentic use of "proper instruments" provides the longevity of these tracks compared to a lot of the modern made in a bedroom EDM trash.

Great vocals from Miquel (Sinitta's Mum and definitely the better singer of the two!).

In and out of love?


This has been posted previously on the PCC blog in a long post with many associated variations.

Re-posting again though as this remix is top class and different to the previous posted.

John Morales is the absolute master at re-vamping and re-structuring old disco classics, making them longer and showcasing all the musical elements so perfectly.

Jackie's vocals are amazing on this track and the musical production is just superb.

A disco classic, that never dates even though it's 43 years old!

Timeless!

(John Morales M&M Mix)

I want everything! Give me everything!

Totally love this, what a fantastic track.

Not too much Duran Duran in it, but fantastic nonetheless.

The female vocals and the lush piano are just top notch.

A superb track and a really great remix.

"I want everything, all of what you do.

Every night, every day, I want all of you"

Get on it, you won't be sorry!

Black hole, naked soul...

Cracking track with yet another superb Above and Beyond remix from 2000.

Were Above and Beyond the best trance remixers of that era? 

Definitely up there.

Also surprised that this is the first Adamski track on the PCC blog

"Black hole, naked soul, liquid gold let it roll, at the same time"

Enjoy!

No Monkey Business here!

Love this track from 1987 a great re-working of the old Hot Chocolate classic.

I have to say that I much prefer this version, which is great and contains some superb piano and a really upbeat disco eurobeat.

I believe it was dropped by the LuvDup twins in their sets and seems very in keeping with the fantastic eclectic stuff they'd played.

"Everyone's a winner babe" for sure!
