The bass hooks on the Deep Dish mixes were boss in a big main room like @ Cream.

Top 10 for sure, probably top 5

‘God Within - Raincry’ mebbies.

Dubman Which mix? I also really like the Dave Angel one. Don’t like Soul Central. They just cheesed it up.

    The Hardflloor mix of Fever Called Love for me. Has everything. Always seemed to get played right when the club were coming up on their doves in unison. Everyone stretching during the magnificent breakdown and then pure carnage for the drop. Perfect vox and a killer piano line. What more could a pill head want?

    Papua New Guinea is about as good a shout as I can imagine so going with that too.

    Just one record is nigh on impossible to pick. Here’s one from a list of at least 10….

    ‘Sacred Cycles’ is one of a few records that perfectly fits the sound that made me sit up and go “Holy fuck” back in the mid 90’s. The first 2 Renaissance albums and Carl Cox’s first F.A.C.T. album.

      SM001

      from Carl Cox F.A.C.T is a fucking beauty.

      Hearing these tracks makes me realise how much I miss ledging it in nightclubs.

      I think there was a thread on the GU forum that described this thread better under the name of ‘Honeymoon E tracks’. Essentially, the gist of it was what colours our idea of ‘best’ dance track is heavily influenced by the first year of exposure to MDMA. For me, and don’t want to break the track down into components to say why I liked it, other than it’s beautiful trance and I didn’t hear it ad nauseam like their other track that was big at the time (Eugina) is:

      But I’ve gotta add in 2 others as technically they’re much better feats of engineering- they just don’t have the euphoric impact for me as the first:

        Fuck it, here’s 2 more. 😅

        Wasily Binary Finary 1998 sounded fucking exhilarating on MDMA at the time!
