You make me feel good!

A corking old skool track from 1991which was both very underplayed and underrated.

Why wasn't this track bigger back in '91?

It's a proper old skool banger with some great piano and would have gone down a storm back then.

It's one I never heard played out, which was a shame.

Maybe it was one of those very rare tracks which never got in many of the top  jock's boxes.

I can imagine the likes of Vertigo or even early Sasha hammering this.

Regardless, this is what the PCC blog is all about, uncovering and exposing some of those rare and forgotten gems.

Enjoy!

Zenana - Compulsion 

(Vocal Mix)

Yeah, feeling!


Always loved this track and another which I'm surprised I've not posted before now.

More for a warm summers day, rather than a rainy December morning, but hopefully it will brighten the mood as we can't easily change the weather.

It's funky, laid back, chilled and very much Ibizian Balearic in style.

Yeah, feeling!

Enjoy!

YBU - Soul Magic 

(Full Length Version)

Hit me in the heart!

I recently posted a fantastic acoustic version of this track which just blows me away everytime I listen to it.

This version creates a more dance friendly vibe.

PDM does what he does best and creates a superb piece of disco dance floor fodder, whilst Yebba's fantastic vocals still shine through.

The only problem is as just over three and a half minutes, it's way too short.

Maybe PDM was in a rush that day and had to get to a gig! Ha ha!

Enjoy, even at 3.5 mins, it's still glorious!

Mark Ronson featuring Yebba - Don't Leave Me Lonely 

(Purple Disco Machine Remix)

Intelligent life beyond this planet!


One of those amazing trance tracks which you just have to play over and over it's so addictive.

You play it once and think "did I hear just hear that right", then play it again.

Almost 25 years on, this track still sounds amazing, unique and truly mesmerising.

Be warned it is very addictive.

Intelligent life beyond this planet! Yes indeed!

Yahel - Voyage 

(Original)

Oooh yeah!

I have only one thing to say about this track "Oooh yeah!"

Well I better add a few more comments.

Just like the track title suggests it's a corking piece of trance piano from 1997.

Altogether now "Oooh yeah!"

Delicious!

Y Traxx - Trance Piano

Ain't it shocking what love can do?


Staying on the Whitney vibe and why not!

When 2 legends collide you're bound to get something special and this is.

The remix and production genius of Mr Morales and the amazing vocals courtesy of Ms. Houston creates house music heaven and a true masterpiece.

It's long, very long at 11 mins plus, but it's never boring and keeps you encapsulated from start to finish taking you on a real journey.

It's making me all emotional!

Whitney Houston - So Emotional 

(David Morales Emotional Club Mix)

This love is strong!

Whitney's legendary status was underpinned by the recognition that she was one of best vocalists of our generation.

Junior's status was sometimes tainted by his desire to chase the money, which resulted in more quantity than quality and many remixes which were a bit bland and same-ish.

This however, is one of his better ones, which combines with Whitney's amazing vocals produces a cracking club track. Just the way we like them.

It's fast paced, energetic and very effective.

Whitney Houston - How Will I Know 

(Junior Vasquez Club Mix)

Do you enjoy what you do!


 Wham on the PCC blog, who'd of thought it, but the PCC mantra has always been about quality and not musical snobbery.

This is a great remix and Sgt Slick (aka Andrew Ramanauskas) is an absolute master at converting pop tracks into very credible dance floor smashes, this is one such example.

I could well imagine this being dropped by some of the more eclectic DJs, it would also be a great end of night track to finish a set.

Imagine this coming on after a night of intense clubbing and the lights coming on.

Dancefloor delirium would ensue!

Do you enjoy what you do?

If not then stop!

Feeling it? You need to be!

WHAM! - Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do?)
