The mid 90's seems like it was a real point of maturity for trance/house music. Synths and recording quality were getting better and better, and the producers were really pioneering how much they could do with the layering and musical development. There's a great live version of this on RUclips with BT, Vincent Covello and a full band. It doesn't have as many synthesizers and sounds more "acoustic" with real piano, drums, etc. but the base songwriting and melodies are so good it works. A truly legendary track.
It's the maturity of the scene, yeah. '96-'00 was underground-peak to popular-peak. Dubstep followed similar, roughly '07 underground-peak to '10 popular-peak. We don't see the same dynamics any longer thanks to culture being a global phenomenon now.
Remember listening to this on a Friday night in 96 listening to Pete tong before going out and being massively blown away.... still a great tune, don’t make em like this no more
where I live they give you 3 tracks at your funeral, i am just playing one and its gonna be this full length, reminds me of some fantastic nights in the nineties
This is the track that made epic house music come too life a timeless classic and I’ll never forget it when we was on tour in time and space in Hanley in stoke and Brian and Vince played this live the crowd went off !!!
Great choon. I'm always amazed by the amount of people who can say ...."heard this in Bagleys/Hard Times/Ronson/Ministry/Tunnel/Hacienda/Nation/Gatecrasher/Moneypenny's in 93/4/5" or whatever!. It's either complete BS to appear cool or you simply were not there 'back in the day' Me? Loved the choon but couldn't tell where the eff I was cos I was too busy enjoying the 90's the proper way - smashed. I couldn't tell you if it was New York or New Effin Year. Anyway, wish I could go back just one more time. Special days indeed. From someone that was definitely 'there'
My favourite disco floor burner. It's where I skip a generation and fall into my Mum's boogie shoes with a little psychedelic tweak. Burned into my brain is a memory of a girl in a short blue skirt on a podium giggling in sync to the staccato, synth rhythm, blowing my mind. (Around 9minutes into track. Sasha playing Leeds 1995-6ish). One of them best nights of yer life agin...
First time I listened to it on Perfecto Compilation CD mixed by Paul Oakenfold. This was great time of discovering such a great artist. I loved PERFECTO very much those time.
Back in the 90s, as the underground ventured away from its NY/Chicago/Detroit axis, "progressive" house was born, meeting the demands of a new generation of pilled-up idjuts who possessed no inkling of the concept of "soul" within the machines. As a genre, it was generally "pony". However, a few little ditties have stood up to the test of time. This is DEFINITELY one of them. [should actually be pitched down a bit, but I'm just getting old] #massive
Takes me back to when life was fun and full of possibilities 🙌❤
👍🏻 Amen to that….we just need to locate the Tardis
still is though
The reawakening of life through dance is a spiritual thing and trance is the gateway to home let’s go friends…..
That 90s prog vibe will live forever. Never dies.. Timeless music. 😍
WoooRd!!
Always imagined I wanted this at my funeral; it’s always been special in my life.

Fuck me - still makes me feel like I am going to explode - 23 years later....

I am so buzzing right now, finally found it! What a tune! Masterpiece
Best tune to ever come out on Perfecto. My fave house tune of all time, just.
And it mixes perfectly with another perfecto classic; grace - not over yet
Sasha hammered this around 1994/95 . I remember being at Pimp in Wolverhampton Xmas party 1994, Sasha & Dave Seaman amazing night
phenomenal tune, so damn good. classic BT, pure quality
Was at Pimp in Wolverhampton 1994 Christmas special when Sasha played this. Special memories
Dance music peaked once BT finished this record! Just timeless along with IMA

First heard this on a sasha essential mix in 95, then at renaissance in birmingham a week later....we lost our minds.
Amazing times, nothing will ever compère to the 90s

BT does something with piano's that makes them feel more energetic that what the notes themselves convey... I love it!
true
He just played em live so they are not quantized, and partially that is what makes it feel alive
Oh god, I love this tune!!!!!
