Dear Fellow Dance Music Lovers,
This blog brings you the best in Dance Music and Club Classics; from early 87 (back in the daze) through to the present day.
For all those who rocked it all night until the early hours, to those that lived for clubbing and couldn't wait for the weekend to arrive. Enjoy and leave any comments on the blog or contact direct by email at pureclubclassics@live.co.uk
You only have to look at the artists involved and you know it's going to be a bonafide PCC.
3D are Danny Howells, Darren Emerson, Dave Seaman, 3 DJ icons/producers.
Robert Owens, is there a better male house vocalist? He's certainly up there.
David Seaman is one of the true legends of dance music from his BiR work, his consistently fantastic DJ-ing from the late 80s and still going strong.
Darren Emerson through all his contribution with Underworld and his DJ prowess and Danny Howells, whilst he's the least experienced of the 3D's he's still been knocking out great dance tracks for 20 years.
I was at the Leeds Love Parade It was a strange day, I couldn't really get into it, the weather didn't help. It was obviously a bit of history (250k people) but we couldn't even make it down to where the floats were as you would never have seen your mates again. After about 4 hours I realised the bloke dancing in front of us was someone we hadn't seen for 4 years which was a bit of a coincidence. After the event at Roundhay Park finished we headed to Majestyk, where Timo Maas, David Morales and Pete Tong were playing. Again it wasn't great, the crowd contained quite a few people who were there just because it was on Radio 1, but it was the music that was the problem really. Listening to the Essential Mix again now, the music was very tribal, dark and basically dull. What a missed opportunity as some some proper old skool tunes would have taken the roof off. Anyway, was glad I went, as the event was never repeated, and apart from Fatboy Slim on the beach in Brighton was the biggest ever UK dance music crowd, in fact it must have been one of the biggest ever UK crowds for anything!!!
