March 8, 200916 yr Author Humate - Love Stimulation! Can't believe I forgot this one - it'd be somewhere in my Top 10. Gorgeous tune!
March 8, 200916 yr My top ten from your list would look something like this: 1 Chicane - Saltwater 2 Tina Cousins - Killin' Time (Fishead Mix) (Thou I'm not sure which version that mix is, anyway a great track) 3 ATB - 9pm..Till I Come 4 Underworld - Born Slippy 5 Everything But The Girl - Missing 6 Sash! - Encore Une Fois 7 Captain Hollywood Project - More And More 8 Billie Ray Martin - Your Loving Arms 9 Faithless - Insomnia 10 Felix - Don't You Want Me Edited March 8, 200916 yr by JackJones
March 8, 200916 yr Author 2 Tina Cousins - Killin' Time (Fishead Mix) (Thou I'm not sure which version that mix is, anyway a great track) It's pretty hard to find, but basically the Fishead mix is an Insomnia/Encore Une Fois rip-off :lol: But it's the best version in my opinion
March 9, 200916 yr It's well known I love me dance music here and this is very much a who's who list of 90s dance choons. My only quarm is the distinct lack of US vocal house (which would dominate my top 40 if I made one). Anyway, I like most of these, especially 1. Felix - Don't You Want Me 4. E'voke - Arms Of Loren 7. Sybil - When I'm Good And Ready :lol: Yes this is a guilty pleasure! 8. Submerge ft Jan Johnston - Take Me By The Hand 17. Prodigy - No Good (Start The Dance) 22. Y-Traxx - Mystery Land 28. Todd Terry - Keep On Jumpin' (Rhythm Masters Mix) 29. Hyper Go Go - High 31. Billie Ray Martin - Your Loving Arms 32. Chicane - Offshore 33. H20 ft Billie - Nobody's Business 38. Age Of Love - Age Of Love But I've always failed to see the sheer vast appeal in... 3. ATB - 9pm..Till I Come I grew to hate this in that hot summer of 99!
March 10, 200916 yr 9. Underworld - Born Slippy tbh, I really got bored with that track, and it's far from being one of Underworld's best tunes imo..... Stuff like Cowgirl, Mmmm Skyscraper I Love You, Dark and Long, Moaner, King of Snake and Dirty Epic were the tunes by Underworld that I really loved..... I honestly cant believe that Leftfield/Lydon's superb "Open Up" is so low on that list..... Nothing by The KLF, The Orb, Aphex Twin or The Shamen....??????

The only Aphex Twin one I liked was Windowlicker. KLF had some great tunes too but not great enough to have a huge impact on me. Was never really into The Shamen - the only one of theirs I bought was Destination Echaton from '95.
March 10, 200916 yr INFINITY! :dance: :dance: ENCORE UN FOIS mentioned! :dance: :dance: Edited March 10, 200916 yr by funmaker11
March 12, 200916 yr No Livin' Joy in that list? Dreamer and Don't Stop Movin' still sound as good today as they did back in 1995 and 1996. Listening to Dreamer even now takes me back to a holiday I had in Penzance in July 1995, just as the weather was starting to turn baking hot at the start of that wonderfully hot and sunny summer. It especially reminds me of a drunken night in St. Ives where it seemed to be playing on the jukebox in every pub I was drinking in. Someone mentioned 1999 having a hot summer - that one must have passed me by! The only memories I have of that summer was it being dull and cloudy when we had the total eclipse of the sun (Aug 11, 1999) and the whole thing turning out to be a damp squib as a result. The other memory I have of that summer was being a Newcastle fan in a pub full of Sunderland supporters as Newcastle were beaten at home 2-1 in monsoon conditions as the heavens opened for the entire 90 minutes of the match - by the end the pitch was more like a swimming pool! That was on the evening of August 25 and it had been thundering, lightening and raining off and on all day so I have this memory of that summer as being a disappointment...
March 13, 200916 yr I'd certainly include Livin' Joy's Dreamer...as likeable as Don't Stop Movin' is, I don't think I'd include that as one of the best of the 90's. I would include Da Hool - Meet Her At The Love Parade, Atlantic Ocean - Waterfall, Armand Van Helden's U Don't Know Me and even Baby D with Let Me Be Your Fantasy.

March 13, 200916 yr I like these... 1. Felix - Don't You Want Me 9. Underworld - Born Slippy (but I'm so, so bored of hearing it) 11. Josh Wink - Higher States Of Consciousness (Original - damn right, the remixes were pointless) 16. Chemical Brothers - Setting Sun (although way below their best) 17. Prodigy - No Good (Start The Dance) 19. CJ Bolland - Sugar Is Sweeter 29. Hyper Go Go - High 30. Adamski - Killer 35. Leftfield/Lydon - Open Up 37. Sabes Of Paradise - Smokebelch II The rest I pretty much hate. I'd throw in these too Skin Up - Blockbuster Gat Decor - Passion (original version - not the one which chucked in the Degrees of Motion vocal for no reason) Natural Born Chillers - Rock the Funky Beats Monkey Mafia - Lion in the Hall Tricky Disco - Tricky Disco plus loads more
March 13, 200916 yr Gat Decor - Passion (original version - not the one which chucked in the Degrees of Motion vocal for no reason) To be fair, "Degrees of Passion" was a much-established bootleg before it got a very belated official release in 96 so it was coceived "organically". But yes, I prefer both tracks in question on their own but worked effectively as a bootleg. "Lion In The Hall" is also a wicked track, not heard in bloody ages!
