alistair …maybe so. I recall a Tribal Gathering (or Creamfields, fuck knows tbh) where Binary Finary was the tune of the day/night, played on he day by PvD, Sasha and I’m sure a few others, I’d actually bought it that week and remember the buzz of sticking it straight on the Technics when I got home.
What’s revisionist about suggesting that in retrospect, it ain’t all that great?
I own much older dance music, that stands-up far, far better today.
I can remember my technohead mate raving about it and at house parties getting off his tits and dropping it in next to Ben Sims tracks. I just didn’t get it….that whole sound. I dropped my guard with the PVD remix of Love Stimulation.

My favourite song I used to move my trance pants to everyweek at Crasher when I was a student. Arguably prog but this is what they where playing at the time.

Wasn’t all pixie trance at Gatecrasher, there was always stuff with a slighty harder edge to it late on, picotto stuff etc.
This was always a croud pleaser when things where at full throttle.
jonattonyeah or the “a rich white dude that one record so it is therefore unimportant” route.
They still tried though with that introduction:
“Trance music may seem like a primarily modern, white and European phenomenon, but its roots run deep in human behaviour practiced all around the world. States of trance, helped along by music, are an authentic spiritual experience shared by many different cultures and religions, from worship rituals of the African Apostles to the practice of Sufi mysticism.”
I mean ffs - I very much doubt Energy 52 were conjuring up images of" African Apostles" while writing ‘Cafe Del Mar’ for instance.
On a similar note, I’m surprised RA allowed ‘Xpander’ to be referenced considering it’s supposedly the most racist track of all time?!
