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
That was the real beauty of well executed trance production, the contrast of the hard pumping beats combined with the beautiful ethereal vocals and spinetingling piano, along with the build up and the drum rolls to the crescendo.
This track does that to perfection.
Pure brilliance as always from A&B.
A spellbinding track of immense magnitude and heavenly atmosphere.
Fingertips so gently on my skin!

Staying on the faster tempo, here's a great piece of Trance just as we like it.
Fantastic breathy vocals and as ever a great remix by Matt Darey.
A really great pumping piece of quality trance music, an essential component of a well balanced dance music diet.
20 years old, it still knocks the pants of any of this commercial crap trance produced nowadays.
We've had the password debate and going forward the blog will become a password free site.
The other overriding features of the blog were the desire for more old skool tracks with 38% of the votes this was by far the most popular category for tracks you want to see more of on the blog. There's no problem there as there are many more lined up to post. There was also a strong request for more classic house (24%), again more will be posted going forward. The next favourite category was more BiR and Jimmy Gomez remixes, again there are plenty more of these to come. There was then an equal desire approx. 10% for more Balearic tracks, more New tracks, more DJ Mixes, all of which will be progressed in the coming months.
The biggest disappointment of the poll was the lack of interest in more Trance tracks like those which Paul Oakenfold used to play circa 1994 to 2000 (with a really disappointing 2% of votes). I've mentioned it many times on the blog before how fantastic his sets were and some of the tracks were simply stunning.
Did all you old skool clubbers stop going out post 1994??
What about all those of you at Cream when Oakey was resident and absolutely rocking the Gaff??
Come on keep the faith in Oakie, the guy is a legend!!
Here's another of the classic tracks he used to play - which was very widely played and it is an absolute bona fide club classic. I remember being in Cream and this absolutely taking the roof off.
A simply brilliant track with great vocals, a fantastic (long) build up and a breakdown that takes your breath away. Awesome!!! A great remix by Tiesto also.
It's a pretty long track (10 mins+) and it doesn't really kick in until 5.25, but when it does OMG (I'm getting goose bumps just listening to it again now).
If when listening to it full length a couple of times, give me your feedback, if you're still not getting it, then I'll have to give up with my trance/Oakey posts??
