Room 5 and Oliver Cheatham - Make Luv
 Date 30th March 2003 5 Weeks Official Chart Run 1-1-1-1-4-9-16-25-24-37-45-48-61-53-58 (15 weeks) Now we have the funky house tune Make Luv by Room 5 and Oliver Cheatham. Room 5 (who also went by the name Junior Jack and had several hits in the late 90s before most notably having hits in the mid 00s with Stupidisco and my personal favourite, the vocal version Stupidisco (Dare Me) ) is Italian house producer Vito Lucente, who lived in Belgium (like many early 00s dance acts that had hits in the UK). In 1995 Lucente changed from eurodance to the newly emerging genre of funky house. Oliver Cheatham was an American disco vocalist, who reached number 38 in the UK in 1983 with Get Down Saturday Night. Cheatham sadly died in November 2013. The song became popular, much as a result in its inclusion in a deodorant advert in the UK. It spent 4 weeks at number 1 in the UK and reached the top 10 in 4 other European countries. The duo released a follow up Music and You, which made number 38 later in 2003. The instrumental of this song consists of a disco style guitar tune, a beat and a bassline and so is very minimalistic and that is probably why I don't warm to it much, for me it lacks the energy power of later funky house records towards the middle of the decade. It has also been overplayed quite a bit over the years. This song will not be the only song with an artist named after a room or similar interior space in the 00s dance number 1s thread.....

I really love this! Proper banging, and a familiar tune from when I was younger.
One of the big classics of the funky house era

Love this finally giving the 1982 Oliver Cheatham original some of the credit it always deserved.

Other tracks during the time of Make Luv at dance number 1
Forgot to post this one, this was actually number 28 the week before Make Luv debuted at number 1. This, like Jan Wayne's previous cover is probably more hardstyle than trance, more towards Cascada and Basshunter style eurodance. ITS WEEKEND! Scooter came back with this one at number 12 on the first week of Make Luv at number 1 and I really like the high pitched vocal tune in this one and the humourous rap from Baxxter of course. He talks about drum and bass and this perhaps has a little bit of that genre in places but it is mostly the techno-trance mix we associate with Scooter. Number 29 second week of Make Luv. Another eurotrance tune with a singer who sounds quite a bit to me like Nadia Ali. She is from Belgium like many dance acts that had made the UK top 40 in 2002. We might see her later in this thread one of the last eurotrance tracks to make the top 10 with Micky Modelle in 2006. I prefer Look At Me Now as a song though. Number 37, second week of Make Luv. Another eurotrance cover, this time of Minnie Ripperton's song (now an X factor audition favourite). However this is much less cheesy and poppy than the other ones around at the time. Number 12 on the fourth week of Make Luv at dance number 1. A trance tune from Florida producers Plummet, a cover of a song by American singer songwriter Plumb called 'Damaged'. One of my favourite trance songs ever  . Absolutely heavenly Number 36 on the fourth week of Make Luv at dance number 1. The chart follow up to Chase The Sun, this is very funky and more energetic to Chase The Sun, I have never heard this before but I think I prefer it to their more famous tune. Number 23 on the fifth week of Make Luv at dance number 1. Also one of my favourite trance tunes, from Jurgen Vries' group of producers. Like the Plummet tune, very atmospheric. |

One of the big classics of the funky house era Its OK, but I think funky house always sounds better with disco strings in it.  That gives it more power.I always considered the funky house era in the 00s as being from mid 2004 to near the end of 2006 when electro comes. Perhaps I am wrong though. I suppose the genre came and went throughout the early 00s. |

Well by the mid 00s Out Of Touch, I See Girls and Somebody's Watching Me have rises. ISG even re-enters the top 40 of the chart and rises. SWM starts off mid top 40 on its first week.and then rising to top 10 next week (why was that - a mid week release first week?) |

Didn't most hit songs enter mid-table before climbing massively into the top ten in 2006, because of the rule around at the time that allowed songs to chart based on download sales a week before their physical release? The HUGE hits like Crazy, Patience and I Don't Feel Like Dancing debuted really high based on download sales but most had to wait for the physical push to propel them to the heights. I've got no idea what caused the bizarre resurgence back into the top 40 and up and up again for I See Girls though, quite an unusual chart run indeed! |

Tomcraft - Loneliness
 Date 10th May 2003 3 Weeks Official Chart Run 1-4-5-9-13-18-24-31-39-48-71-75-74-80 (+1 week 90 13/12/03 1 week 99 10/1/04 and 2 weeks 77-85 from 04/09/04) (18 weeks) A UK one hit wonder now from Tomcraft, a German producer specialising in progressive house and trance. His real name is Thomas Brückner Tomcraft on the track Loneliness (and many of his other songs) had worked with the uncredited Eniac , another German producer, who is renouned for also working with German house producer Tom Novy (who may later appear in this thread as a sole producer). Loneliness is a vocal trance song, although it is much different to the usual early 00s vocal trance in that it has no real slow atmospheric bits prior to the buildup , it is a much more 'ravey' sounding trance song. It features prominent use of piano in the song, and none of the usual long sounding rather sad sounding trance synths that had been common in many vocal trance songs. The song is based on an excerpt of a 1999 single by Martin called 'Share The Love'. It is arguably the last trance number 1 in the UK (depending on whether you consider Calvin Harris' 'I'm Not Alone' as trance). The uncredited singer on Loneliness is Yvonne Spath, who sounds much more understated in style and 90s sounding than the usual Kelly Llorenna style vocals that tended to dominate in vocal trance up to this time. She and Tomcraft performed the song on Top Of The Pops when the song reached number 1. There are weird camera angles at times in this performance showing up close images of Spaths pupok  Will Young part covered the song in his 2015 song 'Love Revolution'. I only discovered the song about a year ago when looking at the Chart Archive and I immediately liked it I don't really remember it from the time, which isweird considering how big a song it was in the UK at the time. Finally it is notable how modern looking the single cover is...at a time where most covers were similar looking ones for many artists under a record company, there is even a distrinct Tomcraft logo, and artist logos are a big thing on dance single covers now of course This post has been edited by Mountain Emperor: Nov 19 2016, 02:18 PM |

Other tracks that made top 40 during Tomcraft's time at dance number 1
#26 on Tomcraft's first week. Top 40 follow up to Addicted To Bass, similar drum and bass with a funky vocal.  #31 on Tomcraft's first week. Energetic latin house tune #36 on Tomcraft's first week. Trance with few vocals (more like what was popular in 2000), quite rare by this stage. Colm would have liked this. #7 on Tomcraft's second week. Bhangra dance tune - I always liked this tune Remember it well from the time from the car advert.#17 on Tomcraft's second week at dance number 1. Trance infused remix of the 90s classic. #31 on Tomcraft's second week. Oh yes...a precursor of the sort of funky house production we would see in the mid 00s with the Shapeshifters etc. #13 on Tomcraft's third week...big garage tune This post has been edited by Mountain Emperor: Nov 19 2016, 02:51 PM |

Tomcraft - Loneliness
Iconic song, at least for me from that time. I can remember it was the first time I was living in Germany (between 2002-2004), so it has different memories for me to the years before and after. |

Husan is a great tune, pity it didn't enter higher in the chart as it would have been our only bhangra dance number 1.

Loneliness is awesome, I remember expecting Craig David's Rise & Fall to be #1 that week and was glad Tomcraft somehow got there (just in time to be my 16th birthday #1!)
I've always preferred Stuck In A Groove to Addicted To Bass, I thought it was fantastic. Had it surfaced a year earlier it would have gone top ten but they waited far too long after Addicted To Bass. |

Love Inc - Broken Bones
 Date 31st May 2003 1 Weeks Official Chart Run 8-16-21-27-34-47-69 (7 weeks) This organ house tune from Canadian house trio Love Inc. is unusual in that, like You're A Superstar, it dates from 1998 and reached number 6 in Canada in that year. The tune is organ house, the futuristic subgenre of deep house that seemed to make a comeback last year in the UK and Europe with the likes of Philip George and Joe Stone. As a result this tune sounds very relevant still. There are also some trance style synths in it at times. Much more upbeat and less reflective than You're A Superstar, the drug references in the tune means it is perhaps not the most radio friendly dance tune lyrically. Despite this, it reached number 8 (one place below You're A Superstar's late 2002 peak). The singer in the track is band member Simone Denny, who song on 'You're A Superstar' too. By the time this track was released in the UK, Love Inc. had long broken up (they broke up in 2000). They had one further UK hit after this, Into The Night in March 2003, reaching number 39. I much prefer this to You're a Superstar, it is much more lively and upbeat imo. I don't remember it from the time sadly though.

Two further dance acts in the chart that week
#17 Nice chilled funky house tune #22 Not really a dance song from them this time, unlike We Don't Care. But an interesting listen, quite Madness inspired. |

I do like that Love Inc. song, it's a good follow-up. Though I only discovered it about a year ago whereas I've known 'You're A Superstar' for many years, so that still has more impact for me.
