Legend lads, great stuff keep em comin!

I remember years ago I had decided that I wanted to buy decks, and actually went out and started buying vinyl (I never ended up getting decks in the end - ha - but still have the LP's). Anyway I bought a couple of records, 2 mentioned above "Wink, higher State of Conciousness, Tori Amos - Professional Widow, and a few others). I left my car parked in town, with those records in it, and when I came to collected the car, some f**king nackers had torched it on the spot...

I wonder if they took the records first?

again depends on the set.

Possibly, cannot remember, and dont have access to by record box, as its the other end of the country:D

Single Malt

Unfortunately its useless in a modern set (certain older people at house parties will love you tho:D) Tony de Vit The Dawn legend tune, but useless these days, its aged badly, very badly...but brings back good memories.

Thats not the one I have. I really need to set my decks up again, and get my records back:eek:

Right then, time to stop playing about

If you're going to blow the roof of a place with an oldschool tune there's only one test as to how well it will go down - if a can of baked beans spontaneously implodes on top of a bass bin then you're gravy :cool:

Acen - Trip to the Moon Part II (From Russia with love ... Everyone who hears this tune presumes the sample was nicked off of Robbie Williams' 'Angels'.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfMlQJ5SeFo

Prodigy - Pandemonium (Starting @ 2:56 - Mmmm....)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JQ6-E43aiE

Green Man - Shut up and Dance (Badly in need of a remix - hasn't aged as well as the rest of them but still unbelievable tune.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6acu_qaFaM

Altern8 - Frequency (Soulwax dropped this in the middle of their set at the picnic two years ago - I couldn't breathe for about a minute and a half.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnOub4nhkW0

Future Sound of London - Papa New Guinea (Probably the most dated of all the tunes, but thrown after a bit of moby or something to end a set it would be perfect)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCoCTkC0oL0

Outlander - Vamp(Wouldn't be a big fan, but DJ Hell uses it in his sets)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMEBPEmvTT8

Nightmares on Wax - Aftermath (Should pass the can of beans test in the first 20 seconds )

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFZ2TB5LqHM

And I'm 20 - born well past the warehouse scene/acid house - so I'd like to think I'm less clouded by nostalgia than some people here; mostly a fan of old school jungle and late house.

Single Malt

Papua New Guinea.....now we are talkin:D. effin legend

Mind your eyeballs with this one.

Clouded with nostalgia??!!
Like the sixties, if you can remember it you weren't there
good choice of stuff though, the shut up and dance records were great, i love this one, samples from duran duran's the reflex and a japan track in it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqYF5udI5Cg&feature=related
still have a scatched up old white label of this, got in abbey discs-speaking of abbey, when it was a small shop in the abbey mall, i was promoting a gig with paul okenfold and he wanted to get some tunes-so i took him to abbey discs... billy clocks him and says "can you sign this for me?" and hands oakie a 12". Oakie signed it and without missing a beat sticks it up on the wall and goes "thanks, I'll get twenty quid for that" legeng

Prefabsprouter

What about Duke - So in Love with you (Full Intention Remix). I've had a great response when I've dropped this into a set

sur_1_nuage

Jones & Stephenson - The first Rebirth

Armand Van Helden - The Witch Doctor

More on the House side:

Moloko - Sing it back

Dun laoire

Just a few belters.

This track you gotta just let play from the start and don't mix it in. The roof will lift off but will hopefully be found in a nearby field.
Amoeba Assasin - Rollercoaster
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8_cKzlpq2A

Massive - Dansattack
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c47jZW2cBq8

Lionrock - Carnival
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsfptRjyRuc

Size 9 - I'm Ready
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hS65n6sz0xo

Dun laoire

I heard Armand van Heldens Necessary evil in a nightclub in Galway about 7/8 years ago and the place erupted. It never sounds as good just listening to it at home compared to a nightclub.

Almost everything named so far in the thread I already have on MP3 (dubiously legal if you own a hard-copy - you're allowed one digital backup for archiving purposes) or could find in about 5 minutes of googling. That Acen track , for example, is given away free on your mans website

Yeah great tune, only listening to that again the other day and thinking how it is an all-round pleaser.

Single Malt

Another classic. CJ Bolland - The Prophet

Luke! Broughan

its such a crazy tune,i remember hearing it on Pulse FM 103.8 i think,back in.....1998 maybe??

correct me if im wrong.


They never said who it was after the tune,then i sat in greystones cinema waiting for the movie to start,and that tune was playing before the movie started,and i knew i had to get a copy of it!

hmm,another oldskool tune that would be cool to play is Johnny L "hurt you so"..

could be interesting maybe.

Single Malt

1997 was release, so you are probs right. Legend from the heyday of trance.:D It will still raise the roof in a house party (right crowd present:pac:)

therewillb

Lil Louis "French Kiss" late 80s? a classic

Luke! Broughan

you're bang on Singlemalt,right in there.



And in reply to "therewillb"....

"lil louis and the world" track :"french kiss" is an absolute ledgendry track..
a lot of techno and house just got buckets of influence from this corker...


if you like that track by lil louis,have a listen of french kiss(remix by darren emerson) and also listen to a track called "it doesnt have to end" by 16B.

both use the same powerfull,driven bassline.
i love it

Scubadevils

Waterfall 1998? Nah, much earlier, I would say about 1993/1994 to be honest.
