Sorry to hear about your losing your friend, same thing happened to me! But it was my brother! Shit times but ollskool hoolies are great for getting through life! Uplifting!
It's always turned up for this and you're right, it is a banger. Sorry about your friend. I'm struggling with addiction right now and it's a tough road to be on. If you know you Know..#OldSkool4life
Always remember being a little kid and being frustrated about my disability and the first thing mum would do was pick me up outta my wheelchair and let me groove with her, 🎶🎶🎶💖
Jamie lea.....I used to go a club in st Helens and a girl who looks like you came every week .I'd always take the time and my friends to go over and talk to her .never forget her smile or yours now.keep strong my sweetheart ❤️
@@jamie-leawareing1728 .Jamie luv ,just to be clear ...the girl used to come into a rave club in a wheelchair .you look like her.i was impressed so I spoke to her every Friday night .we would have a smoke and a chat even if were gettingi mixed up ,your special an I would be the same ..sending you hugs ❤️
35years ago I got into this scene, 35 years later still listening and now reminiscing about the good times and tunes we had.. never forgot what we had…our time…
Because the price of sampling has sky rocketed! You can't just rip off Jimi Polo - Better Days piano from 2 years earlier (1989) and press a white label copy calling yourself Congress and get away with it anymore! 🤣🤣🤣
They changed the frequency of the music after the rave scene in the music biz because they don't want people feeling that love and happiness anymore plus it brought unity, if that happens they have no control over us then, it almost brought the world together.
I'd argue that the best part of the human brain is innovation, creativity and progression and development. Without it we would die off. Without progression this music would never have been made. Anyway, i hear you point, i'm here yearning for this. Good music is but to the ear!
I love nostalgia, and some tunes make me want to cry, because we can't go back to those days. So we need to find other things, positive to focus on. I hear you. Stay safe x
Was only a young nipper around these times, 6,7,8 years old. But always remember the family parties with this music. Good times, love this music as it reminds me of the good times !
I never raved before, but heard it was great. Tunes that make you feel your feet are flying. I don't think it was 100% E's, the music was designed to make you have the best time! A minute's silence is in order...
all these plugins emulate high end studio gear like SSL, Manley, Fairchild etc that were used in super expensive studios back then to mix the likes of Phil Collins and Cliff Richard for radio 1 friendly mixes. It’s comical to listen to modern “producer” RUclips vids micro-obsessing over how the resonant HZ of the kick is clashing with the bass and how equivalent of £20K in hardware (as plugins) is needed to ‘fix’ it 🤦♂️
That's true. The difficult part is creating few musical riffs or parts that will work effectively yet sound simple. It's not easy creating simple hooks that work together great
But they were the best days ever. Ask anyone who was there and they all agree. Everybody loved eachother we all had time and respect for each other and looked out for eachother especially. Where have those days and times gone ? I've been going out once a month to London with a group of friends ive known mostly since school and it's been awesome. We all look after eachother and dance together its been bloody awesome I only split up with my wife of 10 years so i didn't go out for about 18 months but I'm glad my mates went on at me to come out and im so glad I did. I've made loads of new friends and it felt so good for people to want me to go out with them after not seeing them for 25 years which is a lifetime !!! So many of them said such nice things after all those years and it meant so much to me especially after all the nasty things my ex wife said which after hearing it everyday I actually started believing it we had known each other for so many years I thought it must be true she had no reason to lie and we did love eachother for a long time. Anyway that's past now I've got the best friends in the world and don't need or want anyone else. Going back out raving after all this time has done me the would of ģood and im so grateful for my true friends they mean everything to me and always will xxx
Songs like these just hit the soul. I was born in 1994, and im so glad my mum and dad brought me up on true authentic music that actually makes you feel. I wish i was born 20 years before then so i got to live my teenage years with this vibe rather than the putrid that comes out now days!
What an anthem this was can't believe how old I am and how faded the memories might be the knowledge they were the best times the best raves the best tuneage just makes ya glad ya old really youngsters will never ever have what we had
1988 to 1992 or 94 Was a special time.I think everyone was having fun - ravers., punks hip hop gangsters, drum n bass, jungelists. Man were those today's greatest times of my life.
Oh my goodness. Make my funeral late in the day. After come to the wake. And play this. Then dance and dance and dance and dance again, with all your life laid out before you without a care in the world, because that’s where I was all those years ago, and I’d give anything, really just anything, to dance the night away again; and I’d never change a thing.
Had this tune on my first rave tape!!! Ratpack at telepathy!! Those were the fucking days!! Blessed to be part of that generation!!! Age is a number we fucking rocked it !!!
Can't rate this tuneeeee enough.Loved it when it dropped in the house of muzic! Put yr bopping shoes on - no one's looking! :) Another world...A world of PEACE & UNITY.United through the music and the vibe.Where people enjoyed being in each other's company, shared , cared ..Vibed to the music and resonated energy..Such an amazing experience that was addictive in it's self..Freedom
As I type this, I have a fine selection of suggested videos to the right of my screen: Break of Dawn (Rhythm on the Loose), Your Love (Jamie Principle), Don't Go (Awesome 3), Take Me Away (Pin Up Girls), Elevation (Xpansions), JJ Tribute (ASHA), Way In My Brain (SL2)... Most of these tunes wouldn't even be considered for inclusion in the tracklisting of your average 'Now That's What I Call Old Skool Anthems' compilation.
Still awesome today, that's what a classic tune is, no matter what era it is from if it's rhythmic and clean , then it is a classic,25 years on and still uplifting
I have just discovered Orbital I was already aware of 808 state but I’m new to the rave scene. I am a massive Stone Roses fan and have just extended my knowledge further.. fuckinghell. Wow. Rave on! (I’m 26 - very inspired by my father who was a massive part of the baggy scene)
Heard this song on holiday in the summer, I’ve had the tune stuck in my head but couldn’t find it, finally after weeks of searching and searching ive got it, LOVE IT
I was at ‘MOOONDANCE’ KOKO’s formally know as Camden Palace, this classic banger of a tune got dropped at the start of Billy Banters set!! The place went ‘MAAAAAAAAAD’ for it!! 🤪
13 people weren't there. How can you give a thumbs down to such a positive vibe and catalyst? I remember a version with a vocal sample of BLUR's 'Girls who love Boys' on top. A fresh take on Britpop (no one outside of media really cared about that label right?) courtesy of rave music.
The version with blur girl who love boys versio is on RUclips buddy its called pianoman-blurred there is also a donkversion which sounds gd also.godbless bro
Doubt any producers of these tunes made millions of pounds. It was for the love of music. That’s what made it a special era.
Couldnt agree more m8.
Tunes back then were epic, and individual tracks were far more focused on alot more back then. 🕺
Baby Dee just cheese now💯

My mate just passed due to addiction. And excuse my french.. he fucking loved this tune...turn it right up. What an absolute fucking banger ... 🙂

Me too honey x
Why dont people make music like this anymore. Such a happy, carefree vibe.. Makes me want to cry, what the hell is wrong with the world these days..
Agree! 🙂
Everything, that is what is wrong...
People are so upset they can't feel it anymore.
Because the price of sampling has sky rocketed! You can't just rip off Jimi Polo - Better Days piano from 2 years earlier (1989) and press a white label copy calling yourself Congress and get away with it anymore! 🤣🤣🤣

The greatest part of the human brain is memory, the worst thing that comes from memory is nostalgia. We remember but we can never go back! So sad.
I'd argue that the best part of the human brain is innovation, creativity and progression and development. Without it we would die off. Without progression this music would never have been made. Anyway, i hear you point, i'm here yearning for this. Good music is but to the ear!

@@robjameson3163 and how does any of that you listed work without memory?
Man this makes me wanna cry...in my lorry going through the classics and this one puts a lump in my throat...I'd go back to 90s tomorrow
don't be sad it's over, smile cause it happened.
Love Itttttt! 😃
@English Baz its much like the parents and rock n roll in the 60s i guess....
Add a flux capacitor to your lorry,remove the governor and get her up to 88 miles an hour..Oh and please take me with you. I miss all this.
Does it listen to a tune called I follow rivers by lykie lye
1991 - best year for happy house piano tunes... the party continues :)
What an absolute classic wish we could do it all over again
shit dawg aint that the truth, what an era man, LSD,Ecstasy,Cannabis and groove enlightenment
BadboyAJ2010 At least we did do it.
If only!!!
Well we can't
memories that can never be taken just be privileged you were there to witness it.
ALL TIME HALL OF FAME CLASSIC. max respect to all those of the 90's crew. when the world was a better place. At least for a few years.
I'd love to get these days back, awesome era never to be repeated.
Swift Cee I couldnt agree more my friend. They don't make them like this anymore. Brilliant track.
Jase B me too my bro.
Perrynn Lynch you replying to yourself hard on it
Was only a young nipper around these times, 6,7,8 years old. But always remember the family parties with this music. Good times, love this music as it reminds me of the good times !
Still gives me goosebumps today like it did back then!
Miss those days!!
I never raved before, but heard it was great. Tunes that make you feel your
feet are flying.
I don't think it was 100% E's,
the music was designed
to make you have the best
time!
A minute's silence is in order...
FFS covered in goosebumps at my age (50+). Them were the days, no attitudes, no knives, no regrets. Miss ya all.
Nostalgia absolutely tearing me from the inside as I listen to this classic.
If only we had a time machine we'd bring our loved ones back to those days to show them how it was.
Struckgold ..Magic sentiment. Heres to these tunes helpin ye glimpse those times. At least yer mind can time-travel
Aww if only, would go raving with my sister she lived for it but sadly died aged 34 of cancer
Only 240k views...baby shark has over 1 billion..the worlds gone totally mad just as i thought!!!
fiendish 28 Nutz ... mudness ... bring back da Golden era
4 Billion now
Jake 123 no accounting for taste and class
I know,its mad. Proper early 90's upifting
To be fair, I don't think many toddlers are gonna find this as catchy as Baby Shark.
These piano chords just about sum up what was so great about Hardcore music.
Pleasure, happiness, joy, euphoric highs. Lose it, groove it, do it !
I'm 14 and I love this !!!!!!
Summertime 2018! Who still has their fucking hands in the air??
it's fall now ;-)
I'm 50 now but yes i do mate.
No but what a time i miss where the tunes where banging and every body was beautiful xx
This is unadulterated old school house - awesome tune
old skool rave breakbeat
NO HOUSE
@@technorave7085 Everything was house back in the day. As in music that was played in warehouses.
wrong! 1987 maybe warehouse/house & disco....1991 (40 miles) rave & techno
It's house because there is a piano and is melodic and with song. Similar to italo house.
John Hackett It’s what?
Proof positive that you don’t need 55 VST synths and 100 effects to make a decent dance tune. Decades on , “40 miles” still rocks.
I KNOW STUPIDNESS INNIT
You spend more time listening to every sample to see which to use than actually creating anything lol
all these plugins emulate high end studio gear like SSL, Manley, Fairchild etc that were used in super expensive studios back then to mix the likes of Phil Collins and Cliff Richard for radio 1 friendly mixes. It’s comical to listen to modern “producer” RUclips vids micro-obsessing over how the resonant HZ of the kick is clashing with the bass and how equivalent of £20K in hardware (as plugins) is needed to ‘fix’ it 🤦♂️
Gimme late 80's/early 90's sampler, 303, and synth based tunes over the kinda shit that james hype twat plays any day!
That's true. The difficult part is creating few musical riffs or parts that will work effectively yet sound simple. It's not easy creating simple hooks that work together great
I find myself crying to this like I'm mourning the raving days :( rip 90s
Awww don't mourn ...Celebrate !
Same as :(

No words can describe this masterpiece apart from undescribable , its that good !!
The golden age of rave...... timeless classic......88-93 crew, when the vibe was still real !!!! 👌👌👌🐝💤🐝💤🐝💤🌈😎
Still puts a massive smile on my face. Great music, great era ….. so privileged of being a part of it. No regrets, nothing but fond memories.
After 3 weeks of listening to old skool 70's and 80's hip hop, I'm now returning to the classics
Remember blasting this track through my halls of residence at university.....miss the 90’s.
one of the best tunes from the good old days of the best days of my life..never forgotten..

Every now and then i come on here looking for music and i come across a banger like this. What a tune.

Last tune 6.30am on your way out lights on, still dancing, still rushing, Slammers Kent '91, what a year.
Proper goosebump and "shiver me timbers" action with this eargasmic slice of heaven!
Legends never die!
Still get those goosebumps whenever I hear a chooooooon from back in the day
Always makes me SMILE:-)
There is a remix on "Off yer nut in the millenium" Dj vinylgroover mix or just "3rd Source - Miles Away". Have fun;;)
The days have gone the memories will last a lifetime 90's rave we had it off big time all together as one
Still a tune in 2024, please remix this 🇬🇧👌
Blackburn warehouse parties, clubs and doves. What a recipe. Even Ramsay couldn't better that recipe. Truly great times!
Had a fight in a record shop over this back in the day, I lost and I'm still emotionally scarred.
I have just discovered Orbital I was already aware of 808 state but I’m new to the rave scene. I am a massive Stone Roses fan and have just extended my knowledge further.. fuckinghell. Wow. Rave on! (I’m 26 - very inspired by my father who was a massive part of the baggy scene)
