And another from Saunderson, here with Santonio Echols:
Reese & Santonio - Forcefield
From 88 but just sounds timeless, like it could have been made now. Hypnotic. Dark. Funk. Blows me away how good this is.

Jamiroquai - Space Cowboy (Morales Classic Club Mix)
Oh my. So good. Absolute classic. Sublime.
Junior Jack - Stupidisco
So good. Summer party time. Instant rewind.
Another one from Junior Jack
Junior Jack - See You Dancin
Joyful, uplifting, beautiful track ❤️
Jeff Mills - Life Cycle
Hypnotic, peak-time banger from the Wizard. Just imagine it ripping through your body on a good sound system 😎
Jeff Mills - Spider Formation
So good. Ambient, atmospheric sound. Mills really evokes a creepy feeling. Like, imagine exploring the nest of a giant spider on an alien world, this would be the soundtrack...
Heard this on the radio yesterday. Not heard it for a quarter of a century maybe. Real blast from the past.
Stretch & Vern - I'm Alive
That disco sample ❤️
heard this on the radio last night, so uplifting:
Cold Custard - Escuchar
new release but pure old skool piano house vibes if anybody needs that today ❤️

From 2002, absolutely gorgeous, soulful house track:
Bent - Magic Love (Ashley Beedle's Black Magic Vocal Mix)
And this, 2025, new release:
Michael Gray feat Sian-Lee - Another Holiday
Infectious, dance-able, so good... Sound of summer.
Masterpiece rave classic from 91:
Liquid - Sweet Harmony
Sampling the incredible CeCe Rogers track Someday
Liquid was a duo of Eamon Downes (Ame) and Shane Heneghan (DJ Model). Ame died over the weekend. RIP.
Just listened to an incredible deep house show
So many fantastic tracks
This one from 2005 really stood out:
Kerri Chandler - Bar A Thym
Just phenomenal
Dark. Hypnotic. Minimal. With a groove that just... doesn't... stop.
Like it's kind of ludicrous how good this is
Been on a bit of a UK Garage binge lately.
Just love some of those sounds from back in the day.
Such as this R&B-infused beauty:
Kele Le Roc - My Love (10º Below Vocal Mix)
1999 garage remix of a song for which she won a MOBO for best single.
Love the way her vocals are used in this. Really effective.
10º Below also released under the name Double 99 (of RipGroove fame).

ok so i heard this on the radio last night:
DJ Falcon & Thomas Bangalter - Together
not heard this classic for like 20 years, real blast from the past, French disco house style, so good
Bangalter was one half of Daft Punk, released a couple of tracks with DJ Falcon - this one in 2000
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTcwCWyuEP8
#DJFalcon #ThomasBangalter #DaftPunk #FrenchHouse #HouseMusic #House #Music
above track put me in a 'turn of the century French house' mood
such as this controversial one from Bob Sinclar and Bangalter, 1998:
Bob Sinclar - Gym Tonic (Thomas Bangalter Mix)
very tongue in cheek, sued by Jane Fonda for sampling her workout video - they settled for $75k
Bangalter also refused to release the track, Sinclar did so anyway, and they never worked together again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0r7rxX3xjE
#BobSinclar #ThomasBangalter #DaftPunk #FrenchHouse #JaneFonda #HouseMusic #House #Music
another classic from 2000:
Alan Braxe & Fred Falke - Intro
five minutes of pure funk. kind of surprised to see this one has so many views, did not believe it was so widely known. maybe the fact it was used during the Olympics last year?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nS0accElcA
#AlanBraxe #FredFalke #FrenchHouse #HouseMusic #House #Music
and of course, the other collaboration between Falcon and Bangalter - from 2002:
Thomas Bangalter & DJ Falcon - So Much Love To Give
this is incredible. epic. some records just sound like perfection. utter masterpiece here. the long intro, then when the beat kicks in - amazing. can just *feel* the sun, the terrace overlooking the sea, the joy, so powerful ❤️

oldie on the radio last night:
Barbara Tucker - I Get Lifted
incredible, uplifting, soulful. love Tucker. this is pure class though.
also came on the radio last night, from 2021 maybe:
Louie Vega - Another Day In My Life
just fantastic, so groovy and feelgood.
really hard to put into words how good these last two are.
this is lovely:
Louie Vega feat Unlimited Touch - I Hear Music In The Streets
Vega's cover / remix of an old 80s disco record. he released this in late 2020, a few months after original bassist Sandy Anderson died of covid.
Vega gathered the remaining band members who all perform on this version. a nice tribute to their departed.
Provided to YouTube by Nervous RecordsI Hear Music In The Streets (feat. Unlimited Touch) (Extended Version) · Louie Vega · Unlimited TouchExpansions In The ...
another beautiful, hopeful 80s track:
Sterling Void & Paris Brightledge - It's All Right
released in 87, originally titled 'It's All Right' but later releases have it as 'It's Alright', another one produced (and co-written) by the legendary Marshall Jefferson
covered in 89 by the Pet Shop Boys

in the beginning, acid did not exist.
Phuture - Acid Tracks
imagine hearing this the first time in a dark club. when nobody had ever heard anything like it before. surely the roof would have been torn off the place.
mind. blown.
it's not a song, it's brutal, it's incredible. one of the most important records of the last 50 years.
on the flip of Acid Tracks was this:
Phuture - Phuture Jacks
much less well-known than Acid Tracks i guess. not even sure i heard it many times before. but this has more of a groove / funk than the rawness of the a-side.
also on the b-side of Acid Tracks was this:
Phuture - Your Only Friend
dark, frightening, melancholy. vocals imagine cocaine talking to the listener. "in the end, i'll be your only friend".
