I've searched for so long to rediscover this utterly divine mix by Oakenfold at his very best! goosebumps, and tears remembering some of my best times!!
The opening track still gives me goosebumps when I hear it. I’m transported back to a wonderful time of my life, clubbing every weekend and making new friends. What a classic album.
This is when the whole Cream/Oakenfold/superstar DJ/superclub thing really began to gather speed. Oakenfold was really on top of his game between 95 -2000 and this catches him right at the start of that purple patch, just before he began his residency at Cream I think, although I think he was resident in the Annex in Cream around this time before he went on to the Courtyard. we were spoilt rotten, really, and I'm glad that I experienced all this because dance music now and the ridiculous so called EDM these days is utter shite.
Oakenfold didn't take his residence up until 97. The Courtyard had been open a year prior to that. Coxy took his Ultimatum Tour there in the February of 96 and brought it down long before PO's arrival.
@@spud74 Oakenfold started playing his Cream residency in that little room, before he went to the big Courtyard. The latter was a nicer space, but when he first started he used to demo far more unreleased Perfecto (and related) tracks - often pausing the beat-mixing to play the new tunes in full. Regardless, he did great work at Cream. Better than Judge Jules, who could play really great house/progressive/trance sets - but his own remixes were pretty terrible back then!
Guy Graham he didn’t mate, he took up the Courtyard as his home throughout 97. He played the odd night in Zoo Bar, the smaller room off main room in Cream
First heard this when I was 16 , I'm rediscovering it tonight when I'm 39 years young . The memories that it's stirring up are timeless . Brilliant upload 😀
Oakey at his absolute PRIME. Such a brilliant blend of genres skillfully bookended by the beautiful Runaway and by Jam El Mar's (of Jam & Spoon) phenomenal remix of Oakenfold and Steve Osborne's gorgeous track 'Sun'. EPIC!
'95 was a vintage year for sure. We used to get (now current) superstars come play our dingy clubs, with an eclectic bag of records. Oakenfold was particularly impressive, as he would debut new Perfecto tracks that went on to become big hits!
Oh man, I used to get ready to this tape mix, and was one of my all time favourites, been looking/trying to remember it for ages (was 25 when this came out).....wow what a nostalgia hit!! Been grinning my ass off for last hour, thank you sooooo much James:)
I was in my first year at Uni and remember buying this at Our Price in Farnham. Great times. The essential selection on radio 1 every Friday before going at had been THE show to listen to. Good times.
I bought some technics 1210s in 1996 and had these tunes - I used to live across the road from the Sanctuary rave venue in MK and had many after party sessions listening to these beautiful tunes. Those days were amazing - really amazing - words cant describe the reality
It's 1995, im proper young but feeling old/experienced because of albums like this. Pumping this out in an Astra GTE back in the day and feeling that base like I'm not off my nut. Still sounds good to this day in 2018. Crazy shit
I was 17 and BRAND NEW to THIS MUSIC.... I only remember bits and pieces of this series even though I have heard the whole thing numerous times....Im 37 now and it still sounds as good as it did when I was 17. I like all of the mixes in this series BUT Oakenfold stands out among the other three... imo.. 18:31= :) #Memories #ISURVIVED
I'm 38 mate and agree completely although id have to give 5he top slot to sasha out of the 4. On the abstract choices of record. Sasha and oakenfold are without doubt the legal owners of dance music
James Brewer - you sir are a legend. This mix still sounds amazing 20 years later. Oakey at his peak. Remembering the days of getting back from the club, music in the car, blazing in the back, and then back to a mates house for the come down session. Will never forget those times.
I still have all of the essential mixes every CD and not a scratch on them. Best music in the world. I'm listening to it right now texting this yaaaaaa
Listening to this and lovin it, even my children can't get their heads round as to why I do. I'm 65 years old and I just shouldn't be listening to tunes like this. Hahaha
Nice one James I prefer the oakenfold mix personally but all awesome my legendary dance music djs of all time . We listened to this a lot when it was released I was around 18 then . Great memories bro thanks for putting it in here to share with us .
Back from the club with a keeb, stick this on and drink anything alcoholic left in the house. Chill out then with hitman and her and laugh at the people dancing 😂
James I could not agree more, this is the music that made me buy decks, 1210 Mk.||'s, still Have them and every vinyl from this album, Its an absolute classic and shows the range of DJ's in those early to mid 90's
This CD Collection is probably THE best compilation available. I think because it was one of, if not the 1st big name multi mix disc Collection. Guaranteed goosebumps every time. Lost mine a while ago due to various moves and divorce. So it is absolutely MUSTARD that it's here. Thanks for sharing. Bank Holiday Weekend, Oi Oi, let's AAAVVV IT! 💊💊🙏🏼🤘🌟
Heaven in CD form ! I've still got this on disc, covers a bit worse for wear though but still fills my heart with joy joy JOY !!!! Thanks for posting buddy :-)
My twin brother landed home with this back in the day, got us into dance music in a big way, even to this day. Radio 1 essential mix every weekend, Pete Tong introducing us to new and up and coming DJ's just tonight we replayed Hernan Cattaneo Creamfields 25.08.2002.
For years and years and years I couldn't remember the tune nr the end 34mins>-I thought it was sun by virus and could hum it and get so close-tip of the tongue then gone. I imagine I was to euphoric to remember lol..... Thanks SOOO much for putting this on.... What is that track the wobble I call it in my head lol
You know this stuff is great when you have no idea what the new stuff is and you just keep coming back to the classic mixes
Well said

AWESOME Album... Blinding first tune Evoke... Many a messy messy messy times listening to this after a night out.... Perfect come down track...
Sometimes the post-club comedown sessions were as good as the night itself. You just needed all the right stuff!
Freaking amazing track!
A great tune after seeing tong for the first time

House music at its peak ! Early 90s to mid 90s part of our club culture history ♥️👌
And I'm back in '95 ! Escort cabrio, roof down at 1am heading for the Brunel Rooms with this playing. Happy days!
Hey i probably sold you a few beautiful little white doves at Brunel! Lol it was my second home both my mates were residential djs there.
Loved the brunel rooms 🤍went most weeks
@@damienreynolds5168 I probably sold you some pills my best mates where resident djs and I was the main club dealer in mid ,90s

First heard this on a bus to plymouth warehouse 1996. Awesome times
What a club imo one ov the best
Like a bird on a journey.....timeless production...to drop this in a set even in this day and age would shut down the place...tune!!!!

Absolutely time travel is real.
Close your eyes. Pop on the headphones.
Bliss.
La musique électronique des années 90 est la meilleure.
Prodigy-Skylined....what a tune! Reminds me of Weather Experience yrack off their first album. Essential to any progressive set.
It's a masterpiece,still listen to it,,the tunnel mixes are in my opion worth a listening as well ,,up oakenfold ❤
Oakey at his absolute PRIME. Such a brilliant blend of genres skillfully bookended by the beautiful Runaway and by Jam El Mar's (of Jam & Spoon) phenomenal remix of Oakenfold and Steve Osborne's gorgeous track 'Sun'. EPIC!

This is one of the best mixes even today, sublime music 95 was legend
What a amazing transport back to the past. Good tunes, good times... Thankyou

Keep listening to this life was so much fun back then
Swear I could feel myself coming up listening to this. Belter!!
Ha damn right fella.those double doves 😅

Many thanks for uploading. I believe this series came out later than May, its release was timed for the Christmas market.
Beautiful
The best possible experience ever nothing like it 🤪
No dance music since can compare to the energy and composition of the late 80's to late 90's. Music has just seemed to lose something these days.
Robert Ling totally agree!!!
