Trance Classics – Nalin & Kane – Beachball
Sep 11th
The second Trance Classic in the Series. Nalin and Kane’s fantastic ‘Beachball’ track from 1997, the perfect song to listen to when relaxing at the beach.
It has that constant progressive house melodic beat, with gentle balearic sounds and superb vocals. It’s a timeless classic, it’ll be never be forgotten or ignored, even 12 years on, it still gets remixed and sampled today, but the original is the only worth listening to, ever.
Classic House – Mr Fingers – Can You Feel It
Sep 3rd
House Music started in Chicago in the 1980′s, before I was even born, inspired by Disco music with Soul and Funk sounds. DJ’s began to use the sounds of disco to develop a new genre, using samples and using a bass beat (kick drum) to create a new sound. You really have to go back to when House was first being produced to appreciate proper 100% Classic House.
The First Classic House song I ever heard was Mr Fingers – Can You Feel It, released 22 years ago in 1987, same year I was born. I can’t imagine the amount of times this song has been sampled since then!
I believe Larry Heard aka Mr. Fingers, sampled Chuck Roberts words of “In the Beginning There Was Jack…” in his track.
These Geniuses in Chicago, developed a new genre that has inspired dance music of today.

I’ve finally got round to updating my top 10 tunes with a lot of new house and trance added after downloading some new tracks lately.
Robin S ft. Corey Gibbons – At My Best (Felippe Senne Remix)
Jun 4th
We all know Robin S for her massive hit ‘Show Me Love’ and even now after 16 years it’s still a massive hit on the dancefloor.
Her latest track ‘At My Best’ has been brilliantly remixed by Brazilian producer Felippe Senne, giving it an uplifting feet and an excellent peak that’ll work wonders on dancefloors this Summer.

Tune of the Week – Pagano – Back To The Future
Jun 1st
This week’s favourite tune is a new House May 2009 release – Danny Verde’s remix of Pagano – Back To The Future.
A progressive beat, an exciting uplifting melody and some interesting vocals, listen below:
Tune of the Week – Tritonal – Piercing Quiet
May 11th
This week’s Tune of the Week is a fantastic vocal track from U.S Duo Tritonal, Piercing Quiet which was released recently on Flashover Recordings.
I loved February’s release ‘Daybreak’ and this is another excellent vocal trance track by this year’s busy producers.
Cristina Soto’s vocals together with the uplifting melody makes it an excellent track, listen below:
Octagen vs MIDOR – Thesis (RENOISE Remix)
May 7th
Another new track in my Top 10 list is the RENOISE Remix of Octagen vs MIDOR – Thesis, which currently tops the Beatport trance charts ahead of Tritonal’s Piercing Quiet.
RENOISE adds a whole new sound and feel to the main melody which lasts during a long middle-break.
