A masterpiece from the master!

Reach out and touch!

Fantastic piece for classic house music from 1990. This is such a great track and it still feels very current despite being 34 years old. It...

Much respect for Mark Moore who was there at the very beginning of the scene and was always a great DJ with great eclectic taste. His S'...

All for you!

PDM does it again. The Rolling Stones are so iconic and their tracks are not easy to remix in a dancefloor friendly manner, but that man we ...

Nobody knows what's going on in my mind...but me!

›
Love Saint Etienne and love Way Out West so logic says I should love this and glad to report I do. In all honesty, it's probably not the...

We blew your mind!

 I always loved the Primals and have seen them live many times. They are always chaotic, yet superb and Bobby G is a great front man. Scream...

Progressive masterpiece!

 A true progressive house classic from 1992. React 2 Rhythm made some great tracks and coupled with Fabi Paras and you had progressive heave...

Burning with ecstasy!

›
This was a big tune back in 1990 and widely played by the likes of Sasah. It's an incredible bassline and boy did this shake the dancefl...

Definitely one to Remember!

›
A bit of a hidden gem from 1990. Cracking old skool track which went a little under the radar. Full of different samples and laced with some...

It's the feeling that I love!

›
There was a period in the mid-2000s when the Freemasons totally ruled the roost for converting not so great commercial tracks into dancefloo...

I feel hypnotised!

›
As much as I love Depeche, not a lot of their tracks cross over onto the dancefloor of clubland too well. This one is an exception though, i...

Hold on tight!

›
Such an amazing track and up there with the all time trance classics. This track had so much energy, pumping, pounding and building such an ...

Better believe!

›
 A quality piece of classic house music from 2021. Superbly produced and as smooth as you like. Great remix by the legend that is Mr Morales...

That's alright!

›
 Staying on the 1992 vibe another absolute corker. Cowboy Records was one of the very best labels of the 90's most notably leading the w...

Top brass!

›
Love this corker from 1992. Groovy as hell and with some great instruments and a fine sprinkling of piano. Get down! Oh yes! Smooch - Disco ...

Tribute to the all time legend!

Ready for the interceptor!

›
Big old skool track from 1992. Always went down a storm this one. Raw, hard edged but full on hands in the air when that piano dropped. Oh y...

Ride the wave!

›
A superb piece of classic trance from 1999. Full of energy, pounding and pulsing, continuously building then exploding. Trance just like we ...

Wasn't it me who said...

Very surprised that I've only posted 5 Diana tracks on the blog to date. That must change! She is without doubt one of my all time favou...

Stand up straight!

›
A great piece of classic house music from 1994. Superb powerful vocals, a great lively house rhythm and some great piano. Quality remix from...

All I want it the bass, yeah!

›
Superb piece of Hip-House from 1991. This is the same Raze (aka Vaughan Mason) as "Break For Love" the all time house classic. Dif...

You can't tell me - what to do!

›
Now this is an old skool track which I used to love back in the day. It's from 1991 and it used to be on a mix set tape which I used to ...

Valley of Tears

Superb track from 1994 which still sounds great. There are lots of remixes out there of this, but I still think the original is the best. It...

Oooh-eye, oooh-eye!

›
 Staying on the overground/underground vibe, this was certainly a track which divided opinion. In my opinion certainly overground, but it wa...

What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

›
A classic track from 1995 which although it went overground, is still very much underground. Immortalised by the line " what's she ...

Still in the house!

›
Wow, hard to believe that this one dates back to 1987, as it still sounds amazing and also very current. Me thinks that this is where Morale...

Afro chants in the house!

Another amazing track brought to my attention by the wonderful Keinemusik set from Burning Warrior. This has such a great vibe, filled with ...

If you catch me when I fall!

A superb piece of up-tempo house music from 1998. Great lyrics, great vocals and some cracking piano. It's a lively little number, which...

Look how far we have come!

›
Surprised I've not posted this one before now. It's one of those which is slightly commercial but just underground enough. I totally...

Don't go, please stay!

›
I've already posted the Ferry Corsten remix of this track, but felt it more than worthy to post this sensational remix also. There's...

Set the wheels in motion!

›
I could pretty much post Blue Amazon's entire back catalogue such was the quality of their remix and production work. Much like Above ...

You intoxicate my mind!

Don't look behind!

Love Decade were pretty much omnipresent on the club circuit in 1991 and 1992. They seemed to be on the PA playlist for virtually every club...

Trust your feelings of love!

One of the finest vocalists of our generation. BRM and dance music go together like hand and glove. Her vocals on this are stunning. I prefe...

Very sticky!

While I do think that Bicep have been massively overhyped, I do have to confess that this track is stunning and very powerful. In our day we...

Eternally beautiful!

Shang, Shang, Shangai!

Let's go back, way back. Love this track very unusual and combining many different styles, but it somehow works. A great piece of Italo ...

I'd love to stay for ever and another day!

This is new and totally fab. A lot of the new tracks which I post are either featured on Graeme Park's radio show which I listen to ever...

Super? Oh yes!
