Nick is an absolute legend. As Chicane he is an absolute choonmeister. I’m almost 50 and can still recall the 1st time I heard Salt Water at BCM nightclub in Mallorca. I was living and working in Cala D’Or. We’d head to Magaluf at the weekend with party prescriptions and the hairs on my neck went up so hard my scalp was almost lifted off my nut the 1st night I heard this. Good times 😍

100% remember hearing this in the temple theatre in Dublin when Seb Fontaine dropped it and we were in the midst of Mitsubishi heaven me and 2 mates. He dropped it at the end to close and we took our t shirts off and threw them over the balcony - absolutely still get hairs on my neck and head standing up when I hear this tune. Amazing memories of that night. Plus it was middle of winter and me and the lads realised after about 10mins we had no T-shirts on to go home in. Had to put jackets on and walk home 😂

@udance4ever Год назад

hell ya. the first Northern Exposure is a classic! ever try meditating through the whole set? holy sh*t I've tripped a zillion times on it in 2001! it made me realize two master DJs can weave seemingly independent creations (ie. tracks) into a cohesive transformational story like a book! completely life changing 🤯

@brianlord3098 3 года назад

Absolute classic, brilliant tune that gets better as the song progresses and never outstays its' duration of 10 minutes. The final 2 minutes still never fails to give me goosebumps with THAT arpeggio coming in at 8:35. Wicked business by one of my favourite all-time artists. For those that are not aware, NIck does a weekly hour-long show/podcast dropping on Fridays called "Sun:Sets" where he selects a bunch of music past and present - mainly melodioc electronica - to showcase.

Was in my 20's back in 1999.

@rcs2003 2 года назад

When i firstly heard this song in a Tiesto liveset, I literally cant believe how can this kind of perfect masterpiece exists in the universe. I remember rewinded the audio countless times to listen Saltwater again and again. It was incredible. I never forget that feeling. I was about 17 at that time. I surely can say, Saltwater is the best trance song i ever heard in my life. And later on, after 20+ years, it still makes the same impact on me.

@thyssenbot Год назад

Saltwater is the embodiment of trance music. It is everything a good trance track should be - punchy (but not hard) bass, catchy (but not too fast) tune, ethereal vocals that say something (but don't intrude) - all packaged in grade A sound engineering.

Nick, if you read this, you were spot on; it was Mark Goodier hosting the Radio One official UK Top 40 show when Right Here Right Now entered at number 40. I remember as I used to listen to the show every Sunday, ready to tape the dance songs onto cassette. I bought the CD Single the following week, and still have my copy now in the DeConstruction card sleeve.

This is on my favourite list of trance/house music. Every time I do my trip to the Nürburgring this song is on my playlist. I couldn't be happier cruising my modified 90s car to the Ring and blasting some trance classics through the speakers, do some laps on track and listening to trance classics some more. Saltwater is so deeply connected to most of my good memories. I even remember admiring the video on TMF in the late 90s.

I've never been into the club scene, wasn't much into electronic music at all back in this time, but a guy at work introduced me to this album. The job (and my life) was super intense and stressful at that time, but this album was like auditory anxiety medicine. It really helped to take the edge off those days, and will always hold a special place in my heart.
