Christ, I used to love that!

My proper "chemically enhanced" days were late 90's, so ones that floated my boat included:-

Cafe del Mar (Energy 52)
Storm (Storm)
Beachball (Nalin & Kane)
Dark & Long (Underworld - remix)
Meet Her at The Love Parade (Da Hool)
Music Sounds Better With You (Stardust)
1998 (Binary Finary - Matt Darey remix)
Darker (Brancaccio & Aisher)
Atom Bomb (Fluke)

Such Saturdays (well, Sunday mornings) usually ended up with a cup of tea and some Kruder & Dorfmeister on the stereo.
Oh yes. Also the 'vs Holiday' mix. Went mental the first time I heard that!

How about:

Superstylin (Groove Armada)
Rockafella Skank (Fatboy Slim)
You Don't Know Me (Armand VH)
I Feel Love (Donna Summer - Danny Howells Mix) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZyDW6yeetw
That Stardust vs Holiday mash up is very good, fair play

I'd forgotten about You Don't Know Me; legendary!

Another that springs to mind (wasn't played all that often in the clubs I frequented) that I used to freak out to was Piledriver by Amoeba Assassin

Followed by Paranoia and a feeling of emptiness!

I saw Underworld a couple of years back play ‘dubnobasswithmyheadman’.

Epic!

I randomly clicked that link, and it was a track on either i) an Essential Mix I recorded back in the day or ii) one of Oakey's "Global Underground" CD's

Either way, a fantastic tune!

Underworld - Born Slippy

I've heard it remixed into so many sets from trance, house, disco, d'n'b, from places varied as Glasto Shangri-La to field free parties.

Man Parrish is one of my faves.

Still got somewhere the MoS Pete Tong / Boy George Annual II... Remember it well as I'd just split from my first wife.....
In fact still got loads of the old cds.

yes

Also:

Guyver - Serious Sound / Man on the Moon
Lee Haslam - Music is the Drug
Anne Savage - Hellraiser
Carl Nicholson & James Lawson - Times Like these
Lab 4 - Requiem
BK - Revolution
Steve Blake - I Get a Rush (K90 remix)
Riot Bros - Ripped Out / My Star Control
Perfect Phase - Slammer Jammer
Aphazone - Stay
Ralph Novell - Wrong Love (Alphazone remix)


Pretty much anything off of the 'Extreme Euphoria' and 'Resonate' series of compilation CDs... Used to go to loads of the hard trance nights at the Opera House in Bournemouth back in the day when Lee Haslam was a resident there. It was great, pretty much every Friday it was either Trance, Hard House, or Hardcore biggrin

Creation Bristol ran a Slinky (Bournemouth Opera House) night every Saturday, saw some top DJs over the years. Favourite set was probably by John 00 Flemming, blew the place apart one night.

How could I forget this

Dream Your Dream III - Mayday Dream
Ultrasonic - Annihilating Rhythm

The sound of Scotland in 94. Listen to the crowd noise at 1:00 and again at 2:18

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfqA0KfXDdY

No internet, no camera phones, just raw tunes.
