Exactly Si “You soookay manay say ye aaaaaaaaaaah”

    I missed it originally - before my time. To me it belongs to a different generation, much like the similarly overplayed marmite/classic track Voodoo Ray. Belongs to my cousin and his mates, 8 years older than me, and going to Ibiza when I was into Britpop.

    I think we’ve all seen Nick Warren play it at some point haven’t we?

    It’s great if you’re spangle-dangled. Hearing it normally just reminds me of what a crap movie The Beach was.

      Lads, don’t get confused here. It’s not a yeke yeke love in. It’s a statement of fact that if you are any sort of electronic music lover, you have 100% done what I said in my original post.

        bosstrabs seen Nick Warren play Gat Decor Passion at the Gallery at 4am. Now that perfect record deserves a thread of its own.

            -si- you have 100% done what I said in my original post.

            Yes, I remember being utterly smashed hearing it one time, I believe it was in a club in Bristol (but Warren wasn’t playing it), and I even invented my own tribal dance to it, which was a bit like a speeded-up version of the Haka, which I did in my own space at the back of the dancefloor.

            Great times.

                The Old Fire Station, I think it was.

                Yeke Yeke is a fun track and in 95, that Hardfloor breakdown was revelatory.

                  Take your gat decor chat round to your own door, Al. This is strictly wiped out singing African lyrics only!

                    It’s an incredible remix really. It just works so well, especially in the breakdown with the repetitive chant. Problem is Hardfloor used the formula with diminishing returns after. Still absolute legends for Acperience, Circus bells and this though.

                      A lot of old farts love it. Last time I played it was at my 40th (it was a “rave” with about 100 people attending), biggest track of the night. Needs a very special occasion though.

                      bosstrabs yeah not mad about it and see it in the same light few years before myself but seen Nic Warren play it in Pacha Buenos Aires I have to say I enjoyed it

                        Played to death….good in it’s day.
                        Same as…
                        Where love lives/cafe del mar etc.

                          Love the original, love the Hardfloor mix. Stop there though. Any Edit or mix since just ruins it even more than it’s over played nature ever did.

                          I prefer Yeke Yeke to Where Love Lives.

                          I know Where Love Lives has sentimental value to some people, but people always seem to drop it at an awful time I’ve found and it totally flattens the vibe of a dancefloor.

                            Good Life can fuck off as well. Absolute pest of a track. Heard it way too much.
