PH ravers/clubbers - new classics?
Discussion
So we had the old school appreciation threads and all - but surely there must have been tracks released the past couple of years that give you the same kind of buzz?
My humble submission to start with would be Motorcycle 'As The Rush Comes' - quite laidback and moody for a trance anthem with the haunting vocals being an integral and leading part instead of the current trance of 'slap some generic vocal lines on an instrumental house track to make it more catchy'.
The more I hear it, the more it gets to me much in the way the old classics do - but then again it could be my current mood which is definitely, er, moody...

The original version of the Shapeshifters - Lolas Theme is possibly the best dance track to have been released recently. That and the Thin White Duke remix of Silver Screen, Shower Scene.
However, Father Christmas, the very nice man that he is, brought me the new Chemical Brothers album for Christmas.
Theres a track on there called Surface to Air which is quite simply, and I cannot over state this enough, absolutely bloody epic.
I cant wait until Glasto 2005 to hear it live.

Stunning tune. I submit for consideration (although not the same sort of style) Racing Green by High Contrast which is about the bounciest, happiest Drum & Bass you will ever hear. There is also a great tune by Evil 9 but the name escapes me.

I've been listening to far to much indy recently.

Just what he said!!
If I could think of 2 tracks and one recent album that fit the bill, these are them!!

I have though, finally fixed my computer so if I get chance before then I'll bung it in the same envelope as the Orbital mind bender we were at...

Is that the one that goes: "We don't like it when the city lights are fading, when the city lights are fading and we can't get down"?

Yeah, that's the one, I think it's called crooked.
The Plump DJ's album was a real winner this year as well.
The Plumps are just awesome lotuslad said:
There's another tune I had a bit of a 'moment' to that I keep hearing. It involves a piano and a big violin build-up. The piano bit's a bit naff but the strings are excellent.
I notice the Soul Central version of Strings Of Life has been rolled out over the Christmas period.
Could be this?

Sounds lik it - very pony cover IMHO
There's an amazing remix of 'these boots were made for walking' by Nancy Sinatra around at the moment, I heard it on NYE and have been banging on about it since.
Tried and failed to get a copy of it but you can listen to a preview here.
