The best years of my life! The rave scene, ecstasy, dancing all night with no worries. Getting in touch with my inner psyche... Took me to places I can’t even describe!! The Beethoven of techno. Techno music will never get better than this. Ever. My church. Takes me to another state of consciousness.. Yes, even after all these years. Thank you Keoki. 👽💫
@@gregorywelch4620 yes but much more serious and this is a nyc mix. which makes it special. esp since all the drama around that time in nyc and the club kids. keoki made it out. and killed it with this cd.
I was literally just listening to this on tape tonight. I found this cassette some months ago and I just bought an older car with a cassette player in it. So happy I get to enjoy this timeless techno classic by one of the all time greats Dj Keoki. Moonshine Records forever!
This mix immediately puts me on an acid trip. I know this album WAY too well in that regard. His best mix for me. So many sets back in those years in Dallas
That album is iconic and represents, for me, an era of love and innocence that began my journey into the rave scene. It connects me to a time of enlightenment and self discovery that bonded me to people that are STILL my closest friend to this day. I had the opportunity to hear Keoki a few times at Simon's. great vibes!!! thanks, keoki.
simons was the bomb! I went to my first big rave there in (96-97?) the soul house & Florida state theatre were involved.I believe the rave was called inushuaya. It was around 96-97. Green velvet Josh winx dub tribe spacemen/trip theory we're playing that night. I wish I had the flyer still. Oh yeah I do I tattooed it on my left calf lol! Great times! Thanks for the jumpstart of memories!
It was an amazing adventure wasn't it? I was an angry, depressed, bitter young man before I was turned on to the scene. I became an empathetic, caring, enlightened, positive person who loved life and those around me. Over the years since then, much of what changed in me has been lost or forgotten since me and my friends went our separate ways, and I myself took up careers in the cold and monolithic world of corporate enterprise. I guess you can say I am back on this journey again, seeking refuge and self-enlightenment through the music. I want to be that person again and I can already feel the changes. Peace and love be with you my friend.
God damn! This popped in my head and I had to search for it and have a listen.... this just made for a wild gaming session.... this along with the flood of emotions from all the memories from this time period. Oh man oh man... this and The Stress Collection (Digweed/Sasha) on moonshine were the two CD’s that never left my CS player for so long. Oh and I forgot... to see Keoki live (back when he really worked it hard) was such a treat!
I know we are all supposed to be looking forward but after 4 weeks of lock down, can someone PLEASE get me back to the 90's? Thanks for posting this. Man parties used to be such a blast. And $5!
Dude, I was 17 going on 18. These two sets were my favorite in the early days. Sacred Cycles was on both and both Mr. C and Keoki were on point. By the next year and two, All Mixed Up and Plastikman's mix released from MixMag were two of the best of the 90's. Still love the current music but this stuff brings me back to some very memorable times. Was fortunate enough to see Keoki at Limelight on a weekly basis for about a year back then.
Thank you, thank you. This was my soundtrack for my San Francisco trip that summer in 1994. Took a one-way Greyhound to rave in the Bay Area. Ended up staying with cool people and meeting Derrick Carter at a New Moon Party at Goat Beach. Incredible summer!!
I still have my autographed copy of this CD; he was at a party in Akron. (back then, we *never* said ‘rave’ - helped keep out the “normals”). 26 years later and ‘The Spirit’ is still one of my all time favorites (but nooo way am I staying out until 4am, haha!)
Never understood it. As much as I have been influenced by Frankie Bones, Richie Hawtin, Mr. C, Billy Nasty, BT, Timo Maas, Max Graham, Sasha, Van Dyk, Tiesto, Miss Kitten and quite a few more, Keoki will probably always be my favorite. Used to see him at Limelight quite often and have been listening to him since 94.
I have it on cassette. From 94 off of Moonshine. I also have a CD of a mix he did in 96. Both are great. Billy Nasty is a legend. Never saw him live though.
This is a product of his DJ upbringing in NYC. He was never a good beatmatcher as he will tell you this himself. What he excelled at was his track selection and crowd reading. He stated in an interview that he went from Frank Sinatra to Run-DMC in one mix. Him playing the Pink Panther theme is right up his alley!
I hated Sacred Cycles when it came out, it was just so cold which pretty much summed up Melbourne in 1994 but 20+ years later I find myself dropping at parties again, pretty good mix with Shi Take another GEM!!!
just last year I "operated" on an old cassette tape of this mix. Then, once it was "healed", my pal and I re-mastered it as well as we could with great detail. It still sounded weak, but just to hear it was magic. To hear it clearly here is fantastic. Thank you for posting... (btw, I always thought it was live in Vancouver.. can anyone confirm?)
best techno dj? scott henry can/could mix circles around keoki, while playing actual techno. and did it years before this ever came out. keokis track selection was always wack and good luck on seeing him give a good live set...and since he just got busted 2 weeks ago with a fuckload of drugs, its safe to say he never got out of that lifestyle.
lol an imitation UK label account, name dropping a guy out of D.C. who are you ripping off with your uploads? oh wait it doesnt matter anymore, nothing is real. this mix is timeless, maybe you need some better drugs.
Wrong. He has successfully been touring last 4 years and has not missed one damn show. He is in Dayton this Saturday for Venus Rising then FL Pig Dance, Houston Numbers, Dallas and so on . . .

Paul Oakenfold is pretty good with Trance too. I love them both.
i wad introduced to techno around '00 with some instrumental version of the jealousy album i have yet to find. it was absolute bliss.
Oakey's Goa mix is one of the best trance mixes ever made!
Was the good times for sure !

I still give this one a listen every few months. Holds up so well, and of course the memories! First mix cd I ever bought. Much love!

The Usuaya party at Simons was in 1999. It was a huge show with a great lineup! I remember Deepsky throwing down at Florida Theater.

one of the most incredible times of my life. fresh into the rave scene in Seattle. Memories I'll cherish for ever.

the best journeys by superstar dj album ever
One the hardest mix ever. Straight fucking legendary 🙌

This mix and the first Psychotrance by Mr.C are my go-to when I need a pick me up... loved life in my 20’s, so eye opening

THIS MIX STILL KICKS!
ive heard this mix like ten thousands of times from 94-1997 i swear
Yes it does!!

i can not believe i have finally found this.....thank you so much for posting!!!
kirsty clark Awesome, is´nt it?
kirsty clark I've been looking for years too
i knew and have the cd somewhere. but i was looking for the pink haired flying carpet mix on here. and its not. so yay
So nostalgic...takes me back to the beginning of my rave days!
This was by far the best times I've remeber
Takes me back to The Limelight days and Disco2000
Wednesday nights .... lots of memories.
truly a classic,also love disco deathrac CD, you got that one
+Michael Davis No, but here's a playlist for it--- ruclips.net/video/2kUXz_J5WkA/видео.html
KEOKI & RED EYE From LA to DTOWN Been bumpin this album. Electric....
I remember this album from so long ago,listening on my bicycle in the sunshine,such a deep journey.
Still timeless production in these tracks.
Great for posting this, lost my cassette of this many. many years ago.../
I still have my autographed copy of this CD; he was at a party in Akron. (back then, we *never* said ‘rave’ - helped keep out the “normals”). 26 years later and ‘The Spirit’ is still one of my all time favorites (but nooo way am I staying out until 4am, haha!)
I still call them "parties" sometimes, haha!
He plays Dayton for Venus Rising this Saturday
Sacred Cycles is probably the greatest trance track ever made in my opinion
Probably the worst music I've ever heard .
@@chrisleyva5399 oh jeeezzzeeeee
@@chrisleyva5399 why ru here?
Pete Lazonby composed Sacred Cycles. Legendary piece. Who gives two caps what this Chris guy thinks. I don't
@@chrisleyva5399 name me a better tune
Been looking for this one for awhile. It sucks loosing ones entire music collection and not remembering a lot of titles. Cuul. Thx man.
Thank you! This is such a great album. I had it on cassette and it got completely worn out. I haven't been able to find it until now.
Always fun to take a journey through time on a lazy afternoon
vivid memories of the track at 40:00 coming home from a rave . 7am crossing a big bridge while the sun came up driving high af. circa 94/95
Dude, exactly! THOSE YEARS !
🌹😢
All Mixed Up is even better. John Kelly had some amazing transcendental stuff back in the day, too.
Funky Desert Breaks by John Kelley.
B schuler. scott henry SM:)e mix vol 1 is aces
Jon Kelly was amazing sadly it seems like he disappeared from the music scene. I loved his Knee Deep the best
Agreed! I saw DJ John Kelly here in Portland Oregon around 97'! Great show!
agreed
This holds up surprisingly well, really solid set.
The one & only Super Star DJ! KEOKI !
everyone disses him. but this is one of the best, and original trance cds from the 90s.
Never understood it.

@@josephdebenedictis3884 word limelight was crazy fun. until the drama of 96. sigh. at least he got out of it.
@@josephdebenedictis3884 the billy nasty cd from around this time. called progresive is fucking amazing too.
I have it on cassette. From 94 off of Moonshine. I also have a CD of a mix he did in 96. Both are great. Billy Nasty is a legend. Never saw him live though.
Never diss. He's an OG of the rave scene. Loved seeing him and dj John Kelly back in the 90s.
I still love that "Technoriental" track. Those vocal samples cut into the middle are very cool, indeed.
Dj Keoki I think was the best dj ever was ! Saw him at Playskool S.D. sports arena blew my mind !
I still have the cd somewhere in my garage...
got the full mix on CD when it came out, awesome
Yeeeeaaaasssss!!!! Finally!!!!!
this is the one. this mixxx. Dj Keoki :) you can hear this a 1housand times. the music sounded different
#7 Track Vinyle Sick C&C music factory remix. My all time favorite
A great find :) Anyone have "Live From Countdown(various)"? 1995 live mix that was amazing, and now I can't find it anywhere.
I did get to see him once, he played a fun inventive set while drunk as a skunk. He even played the Pink Panther theme at one point.
i know him from "Party Monster". i'm from germany 😋. but i want to see him live.
I also heard n saw him spin in LA..mixed in the pink panther theme
This is a product of his DJ upbringing in NYC. He was never a good beatmatcher as he will tell you this himself. What he excelled at was his track selection and crowd reading. He stated in an interview that he went from Frank Sinatra to Run-DMC in one mix. Him playing the Pink Panther theme is right up his alley!
"Speed Racer" theme remix was also popular at parties in 93/94.
@@TMouse-hd5jb beatmatching ruined the scene really. people cared more about mixing than the actual music. . who cares if there are mistakes
Ohh..i like ur hair like that..ladies and gentlemen were gonna have some rather unsettling sound effects ahead...KEEP ON TRUCKIN!!
flying carpet graphic was so bad ass
I hated Sacred Cycles when it came out, it was just so cold which pretty much summed up Melbourne in 1994 but 20+ years later I find myself dropping at parties again, pretty good mix with Shi Take another GEM!!!
Back in the day I saw him at Simmons in Gainesville, The Firestone in Orlando, and The Edge in Ft Lauderdale...Double stack dove...OOOO LALA
Those were great days!
Yes DEFINITELY LOVED those White Doves!!
Outer Limits in Bradenton Fla is where i saw him perform.
Iykyk..😁
Simmons!!! Gotta go vomit in the plants on the roof be right back.
The ONLY bad thing about this is that it stops at the end. I could be on this Journey for hours and hours.
RHYTHMS TAKIN ME HIGHER!! fuck yea.. wickid memories

Mix is timless

(btw, I always thought it was live in Vancouver.. can anyone confirm?)
Thanks for uploading ... Respect!
Love Keoki!! The best techno god ever!!
26 years later and this still gives me the goosebumps as it did when I first listened to it....love, this, music.
Not the best mixing I’ve ever heard, however the choice of tunes is still epic, always worth a listen !
Pretty fucking epic!
such a classic CD mix. too bad when he would play live he was always so fucked up he would collapse on the decks.
Agreed. Zen 97 was very depressing. He was all over the place. 4 counts were 16..etc. We can deny the talent tho.. such memories
1AM-5AM during parties in the 90's was the peak intoxication time.
I doubt many people noticed.
not always and thats kinda trolling. can u make a mix like this. he had to deal with all the alig drama. and hiv. can you blame him?
not always
This Mix And get me on my one's and Two's. All Love
reminds me of high school
Keoki is the GOD of Techno!!
in germany is Sven Väth and carl cox the gods of techno.
but keoki was one of the first too.

I've come down from the violet/violent(?) skies to save the day!

It's all the way live!
Classic!!

+dj braincrash yes its the first compilation he did for moonshine

Keoki is one of my favourite djs.
thank you
What song & artist starts at
51:54?
Thank you in advance.
I’m wondering what the voice sample from starting at 15:25, is it from a song?
I found it from a film THX 1138
If you feel you are not properly sedated, call 348-844 immediately. Failure to do so may result in prosecution for criminal drug evasion.
its from “THX-1138” (1971) a classic sci fi movie

You can get the track list at discogs
I can clearly hear the Muslims call for the pryer in the mix... (I testified there's no god but Allah)
blue racer Wow I hadn't noticed that before.
This stuff was definitely eclectic at the time and his mixes were cut from a different cloth.
