    Epic dance song



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,087 ✭✭✭Clanket


    From an electronic perspective, these are a couple of my favourites. Only posted this first actually over in dance/electronica recently but certainly fits the bill here. An epic track that is up around 14 mins but unfortunately cut short due to youtube time limits.

    I suggest that anyone with even a passing interest in electronic music give this a listen, stunning piece of music!

    Sabres Of Paradise - Smoke Belch 2 (David Holmes Remix)



    I was obsessed with this song back in the day. Heard it on the dance boat and I spent the net 2 years trying to get my hands on a vinyl copy. Eventually got it through HTFR but the bloody thing was scratched. Always had to hoosh the needle over the scratch when playin it at house parties. Absolute quality tune.

    The studio album versions though shorter are still over the 7 minutes ,
    on Irish Tour they're 10 and 11 minutes .

    I hate HTFR, I'd say 6 out of 10 records I bought from them years ago were either bootlegs or scratched, shower of feckers! Wouldn't dream of buying from them again.

    Hate that when you have a track that you want to play and end up having to skip past a part thats scratched, had the same problem with my copy of 'Flash' by Green Velvet.

    And while on the subject of Green Velvet and tracks of 7+ minutes, here is 'Preacherman' by Green Velvet...

    Here's a man coaxed out of retirment recently - Roy Harper. His Stormcock album contains just four songs - all well over 7 mins. A must for anyone into acoustic music - with a certain Jimmy Page as sidekick.
