Where are the anthem?
Don't me wrong I love a good banger of a tune, but where are they? I don't like the "clubbing" part of the dance, rave, trance, house scene. The sweaty, dark room and high as a kite on something synthetic, never been my cuppa and I can't dance for the life of me anyway. But I loved to end the working week by putting on BBC Radio One's Essential Selection hosted by Pete Tong, as I drove home from work.
When I watch a live set from the BoilerRoom, Cream (when it was around still), Ibiza, Miami etc. - I tend to put these tunes on when needing to do some tedious work or cleaning the HQ. I truly do like the "modern" dance/rave music, some good DJs and artists out there for sure - I see people who are at least 30+ years younger than me, enjoying themselves dancing to some good tunes.
The only time I see the audience really go mad and dance their socks of is when the DJ drops in a bit of Saltwater by Chicane, Papua New Guinea by Future Sound of London, Insomnia by Faithless, Children by Robert Miles, Sandstorm by Darude to name but a few anthems into their live set. You know music that's 25-30 years old, and just one note from these send goosebumps all over my body. And often turning it to 11 isn't enough ;) Else it just looks like a normal night out, for a bit of a boogie, don't the youth have any anthems?
