Follow the rainbow!

One of those tracks which is a bit of a guilty pleasure.

From 1994 this is a track which really bangs and has some epic moments.

A real quality piece of hard techno from Belgium which stills sound pretty unique today.

This should have been a lot bigger than it was.

What's not to like!

Meridian Orchestra - Rainbow Colours

(Overture)

Cause, you're the only one!

In my opinion she was always the most talented/only talented Spice Girl.

She always had a strong vocal and great that she is now DJing, although I can't profess I've ever heard any of her sets, so I can't really comment on her DJ skills or track selection.

This is a pretty epic track though courtesy another fine Hex Hector remix.

That guy really new how to create a banging 10 minute remix.

This brings Mel's vocals out superbly and provides a banging floor filler.

Melanie C - I Turn To You 

(Hex Hector Club Mix)

One of the best!

One of the truly great tracks of it's time courtesy of the legendary Pete Namlook and still sounding amazing today.
This was right at the forefront of the progressive house scene way back in 1993 and could also be classed as one of the very first and finest trance tracks.
The track was produced by the genius of 

The Northern Mix is a little slower in tempo than the Southern Mix and is my favourite of the two.

However, it was the Southern Mix which really brought this track to prominence as it was a key part of Oakey's trailblazing Goa Mix.

In fairness both remixes are amazing, pounding, banging, throbbing and with that catchy little whistling hookline.

In one work - immense!

It was of course much copied and sampled most notably by Kaycee - Escape later in the 90's but it was never a patch on the original.

There was also a decent remix by Signum which I've included.

4 great tracks all PCCs - Enjoy!

(Signum Remix) 

That's just the way it is!

Used to love this with a really clever use of the Bruce Hornsby sample.

This was way back in 1991 many years before Tupac's version.

This version couldn't get the sample cleared and hence it was never as big as it should have been.

I used to love MC Buzz B who was a superb talent and should have been much bigger.

Maybe if the sample had been cleared he may have been.

We will never know! 

"That's just the way it is!"

Superb track though which still sounds amazing 35 years on!

MC Buzz B - Never Change 

(Original Promo Mix)

So come on, come on in!

Loving this which is new and recently heard on Parky's great radio show.

It's very Jamie Principle-esque and could be easily be mistaken for the great man.

Yes, it's that good. 

Very suggestive, very camp, but very very catchy and enticing!

Great track, very 1988.

So come on, come on in!
