Scubadevils

Seriously doubt it to be honest. Justin Robertson is Lionrock, forget who made up Bedrock but will check..

Carnival should be easy enough to pick up on gemm or htfr etc

Scubadevils

Bedrock / artists (B)
Real Name: John Digweed & Nick Muir
Profile: Long-running collaborative project between big-circuit DJ John Digweed and producer Nick Muir. Their early singles "Set In Stone" and "For What You Dream Of" were progressive house hits, but in 1999 when they founded the Bedrock record label and released "Heaven Scent" they found themselves garnering even greater praise. "Heaven Scent" was a worldwide smash hit, and was followed by "Voices" (2000) and "Emerald" (2002), among other tracks. They've also racked up a remixography including credits for New Order, Luzon, Humate, Underworld and Heller & Farley.

Lionrock / artists (L)
Real Name: Justin Robertson, Roger Lyons, & MC Buzz B
Members: Justin Robertson, MC Buzz B, Roger Lyons

KdjaCL

Vague recollections of hearing the words lionrock and bedrock in same line in reference to a song Oh well.

Still a nice list from you ,original poster Culture Beat - Mr Vain seriously wtf?


kdjac

Scubadevils

Couldnt rule it out but never heard myself! Very different too in terms of what they produce.

Nice list yourself, I actually thought some others were joking as to their choices. Could actually be typing all night my all time fav classics!

Jivin Turkey

Bedrock is Digweed

Lionrock is Robertson

As for my fav's:

For what you dream of
Age of love
Rythim is rythim
San Transisco (****ing tune that hasnt been mentioned yet )
Crescendo

Just to name a few.

I know, I know Cheezville...

It is one of those tracks that brings back happy memories (showing my age!) and sounds better second time around. Some DJ played it at at a place called Revolver in Melbourne one night. Not sure if it was a white label or if he just mixed it really well but it sounded alright.

OK seriously...

Totally Seanie!

I was willing to let it go but then thought the original intention was to get people to post their favorite dance anthem.

Who cares if there is some cheese in there. That is the whole point! It is always the big anthems that bring back the memories of getting off it in some dodgy club.

Mouthing off in here just shows how intolerant you are and changes the whole tone and vibe of the board.

I am not gonna let some nobody ram their idea of what is cool music down my throat. I have been into dance music from the very beginning and have helped to put on some of the biggest events in San Francisco, Melbourne and Dublin before a lot of people even knew what house music was.

My brother plays some of the biggest nights in Dublin and has been kicking around since the beginning too. He has put on some of the best underground events in Dublin going back to the 'Purple Onion' and 'Elevator' in the Multi Media Centre.

Don't try to tell me what is cool mate!!

:cool:

My favorite dance track is William Orbit's remix of Samuel Barber's Adagio For Strings. Classic!

Anima

Yeah I really liked William Orbit - Adaigo for strings when it came out .

It's a pitty Tiesto had to release his own crap version.

jonny68

I still reckon my selection of tracks cannot be topped (me big headed) :rolleyes:

Another of my favourites:

Shade of Rythm - Big Bass Drum (with extra bass as your equaliser allows!)
Nostrum - Brainchild
Scooter - Back In Time
U96 - Das Boot
Blue Alphabet - Cyber Trance
Marusha - Go Ahead
Alien Factory - Tomorrow

SuprSi

Hmmm, Energy 52 Cafe del Mar has to be up there as one of the greats. I've heard so many classics over the years, and so many that I don't know the names of, but there's this one track called the Return Home by Luna Eclipse - it's from House Pressure 6 (on tape of course!) though I managed to get it on mp3. Probably from around 95-96.

More modern tunes I can't get enough of are;

1-800 Ming - Brothers Love Dubs
Run - Ecano
Mercury and Solsace & Flaming June - BT
Arkham Asylum - Sasha

I could go on hehe!

Si.

mmbtt

yeah I've gotta agree, tiesto's remix of adagio for strings is woeful, william orbits version is one the best dance tunes ever! no doubt!

BaZmO*

Young Braves – “Reach”
Void – “No Stopping”
Gat Décor – “Passion”
Underworld – “Dark and Long”
Voodoo Ray
Liquid – “Sweet Harmony”
More Kante – “Yeke Yeke”
Robert Armani – “Circus Bells (Hardfloor Remix)”
Tori Amos – “Professional Widow (Armand's Star Trunk Funkin' Mix)”
Heller & Farley Project - Ultra Flava
Adamski – “Killer”
Robin S – “Show Me Love”
Bizarre Inc – “Playing With Knives”
The Future Sound Of London – “Papua New Guinea”

To name but a few off the top of my head.

B.

Laurent Garnier - Man with the red face
