I've gotta go back!

Another track which should have been bigger.

A superb remix by D:Ream with Al McKenzie at the controls, most of his remix work was spot on and often unheralded.

This was a big track in 1993 and was a big fave of DJs like Sasha and John Digweed.

Exquisite vocals by the evergreen Deborah Harry (aka Blondie).

Just lovely!

You'll never feel so high!

You have to hand it to Al Mackenzie he was one talented guy, with his hand in many pies and always performing par excellence.

Whether it was DJing, remixing, making his own productions or as the less commercial half of D:Ream, everything he touched was golden.

This is one of his own productions under the guise of Kitsch In Sync.

It is a delicious epic piano stomper from 1995, with superb seductive vocals and just a superb vibe throughout.

It gives me Kylie - Confide In Me vibes - (yes that good!)

Pure class - Al Mackenzie - what a man!

Used to love this one and still do!!

This was an absolute belter on the dancefloor circa 1992.
I think it was produced/remixed by D-Ream/Al Mackenzie.
A really devastating track with a great feel from start to finish.
An excellent intro with the horn blowing then the "Lovechild" vocals.
It then builds, slows back down and cracks into a great piano breakdown.
A top track.
