Guilty pleasures from the Crasher/Cream trance era

BlainSA

BlainSA Ended up going to a Whoop It Up night a few months later and heard this -

The flip of it is great though. Dark monster remix from Nick Muir, Lee Burridge and………. Flares. Yeh…

BlainSA above the sky was a massive tune for Steve Lee.

Guilty as charged!

Amps

Dan You appear to have mixed up ‘corner stone of muscular house’ with ‘shit trance guilty pleasure’. You might want to have a think about possibly editing your post Dan.

Dan This was about 94 wasn’t it?

Definitely not ‘Crasher/Cream trance era’.

Cream were mostly booking people like Pete Tong, CJ Mackintosh and David Morales around this time, and I don’t think Gatecrasher even existed (if it did it was in its early incarnation in Coventry or Brum before it moved permanently to Sheffield).

Prepare to eat your words, Mr Mills.

Millsy At what point, in ypur experience listening to electronic music over the years, have you heard a track and thought ‘you know what this track needs? More trumpet’

BlainSA

bosstrabs Sasha dropped it at Fabric once. 2000? Something like that.

And yes, I know it wasn’t made in 2000

BlainSA I have heard it played out probably 8-10 times, it is still a classic. See also: Joey Beltram - Energy Flash.

Not a tune I’d particularly associate with Cream or Crasher trance though.

HELLO HUGO I AM JOINING YOU IN THE WEEDS.

bosstrabs somebody played energy flash at matter as the last track on their warm up set. A lady I think. Before Sasha.

ScottBailey get in !! Oaky creamfields 99 track 2 - maybe the greatest ever hour of a live mix

bosstrabs

baggers44 I was there in that very tent.

Fuck you, Smallman.

ScottBailey

baggers44 YES mate! Still go back to it a few times a year.

baggers44

bosstrabs lol!! I still return to it every now and again …..the surges of energy from the crowd at the breakdowns ….

bosstrabs

baggers44 Without listening back, or checking the tracklist, I recall he played Mauro Picotto - Lizard and it went off absolutely massively.

Sasha dropped BBE - 7 Days which also tore the roof off.

Sounded mint back in the day

At least she pitched it down to -8 so it could be more warm-uppy 😆

Dave’s unlimited effusiveness for this topic and his disdain for crasher kids always make me suspect that he actually was one.

It’s ok if you were Dave. We all did silly things when we were young. It doesn’t make you any less of a person.

BlainSA

C_J Queuing up at Don Valley Stadium for NYE was an experience and a half. Still can’t get over how those Crasher kids looked. One guy with spiky green hair was sucking a dummy, had a see through backpack with a little teddy and a little bed, presumably for when teddy got tired.

bosstrabs

Never a Crasher kid.

But I did, shamefully, wear Acupunctures, use glowsticks and at one point twisted my hair up into spikes.

bosstrabs But I did, shamefully, wear Acupunctures

Loved my Acunpunctures back then.

Only broadly similar pic I can find. Deffo a guilty pleasure….

C_J

Why “shamefully” Dave?

Should we feel shame because of things we did when we were young and experimenting with different identities?

Are you calling me gay or something?
