Just check out the Geeetar in this one!!!

Most of the tracks I like tend to have a great piano breakdown, a superb build up or just that little something which gives them that extra edge - makes them special.
This track is just one of those tracks. 5 minutes in, its still going along nicely and building and then all of a sudden in kicks the geeetar and the MC Kinky style vocal - to create absolute mayhem on the dancefloor.
Another huge Chris and James monster - one of those tracks where it was impossible not to lose it to. 
A perfect example of a club classic which would never fail to set the dancefloor alight.
I'm even throwing some shapes just listening to it.
Awesome. Feel it people!!!
The guitar riff was taken from Fire On High", by Electric Light Orchestra, which still sounds amazing and would also sound brilliant in a club, hence I've included the link here.

Now this is pure Balearic Brilliance!!

For those who follow this blog, my love of Brothers in Rhythm remixes has been widely noted.
And yes you got it, here's another one. 
This time just Steve Anderson (and not Dave S), but as usual it is the same extremely high BiR quality.
Some may think of the track as cheesy and possibly a bit like something "Steps" might make.
However, play it a couple of times and you will love it.
This is what I'd classify as "Pure Balearic Brilliance", the sort of track that could be dropped mid-set and the crowd would simply go wild.
It would have been brilliant at clubs like Vague or Paradise Factory, clubs where there was no ego, pretence and anything went, where anything was dropped as long as it was rockin'.
Balearic Brilliance or Pure Cheese?? 
You know my thoughts!!
