Pure Judgement thanks for the acknowledgment, more of you pups ought to acknowledge those who paid their dues before you 😉 i was 16 (1992) sneaking into kings cross night clubs and hitting the illegals we use to have here in Sydney everleigh rail-yards just outside the CBD , mortuary station (couldn’t imagine anyone being able to step foot in there in 2020, let alone turn up unpack the decks as the djs did then, no cd mixing back the!
old farts well older djs could kick your ass in a remix but they dont they just bust there records over your head and keep dancing harder the young bucks have missed lot of good mixes , i bet if you asked what was good after hearing the song you could be going back up inside your mom and coming back out dancing hard !!!! older fokes know the ream jams
There was a time in the late eighties & early nineties where the last great cultural revolution took place. People of all colours, creeds, sexuality etc. got together & danced the night away to one groove just celebrating being in the moment & together. However the authorities had other ideas as this was something they could neither understand nor control & they certainly felt threatened by it. The criminal justice act was quickly put in place in order to prevent such events taking place & the revolution was quashed. Whilst the ripples of this revolution are still being felt today it's intensity & power to change the world have been diminished. I will always remember those heady days when anything seemed possible & the joy of being together & celebrating life was more important than anything else. Tracks such as this take me back to those days in both mind & spirit which is of great comfort during these dark days we find ourselves in now.
Couldn't agree with you more mate.... just look at the world now, and the rising hatred and intolerance that's insidiously seeping into our dna.... C/O Social media, the digital revolution, any politician or banker..... nice one.... We spent a lot of time fighting and confronting the vile injustices in response to the events of the early '80's that need no further description here - we know what they are... We represented the youth counterculture of our generation - it was a messy form of seamless, 'full on love for everyone', no matter what you looked like, what you wore, how much you earned, who your daddy was, as long as you were up for a bit of a bop... End of..... Yet now, our kids' world is increasingly galvanised, manipulated, controlled and sanitised into one huge generic confusing mess of social blandness constructed on fear (perceived or otherwise) of the consequences of (certain) musical tastes /youth culture/counterculture/subculture/identity, and what any of this actually means. It is totally fucked .... This is a consequence of our generation, who unwittingly had just a bit too much of a good time without judgement, prejudice, or violence.... If we had only known then what we know now..... sorry guys.. seriously.. I'm gutted..
It's 5 o'clock in the morning. The crowd is tired, but blissed out and sliding onto couches everywhere or just laying on the floor, arms around each other and staring at the sky with smiles on their faces. The birds have started singing and there's a light in the Eastern sky that heralds the start of a new day. . . . And then THIS comes on over the speakers and EVERYONE is up and back on it for one last dance!!!
I can't stop crying. This track and these comments have brought back all the joy of those unique times. We were so lucky to have been there during that brief moment in history. Rave on brothers and sisters! 🙂
This is my late cousin song we had this played at his funeral back in 1997 26 years ago I het goosebumps just listening to it and it reminds me off my late cousin Marc Aaron Brades R I.P
@@davehanna6180 No gloves etc But I DID sometimes dance with glowsticks....Not gonna lie (The one that REALLY gets me right in the feelies is FSOL- Papa New Guinea - Ooof!)
Takes me back to my pirate radio days when i was a dj on Pulse Fm 90.6 based in Hackney, London in 91'. Trust me we had the best times ever back then. That was 31 years ago ffs, where has time gone lol. Im now 57 and those days still and always will shine bright for as long as i live. The sample used from ' First Choice' Let No Man Put Assunder possibly the most sampled track from the 70's Disco era transitioned into house music really captures the vibe in it's first few lines...' Remember the good times don't you want some more '. I'd go back and do it all again if I could. ❤️
Am 15 goin onto 16 and I’ve been in love with 80/90s rave music for years. Great music passes on no matter the age. To all the old garage, house or trance etc heads out there keep on raving
Allison Templeton, I'm 47 too, I started raving in late 80's. I lived in Exeter at the time and me and my mates would head up to London for the weekend and go to some amazing underground raves, I remember one in the Elephant and Castle under a bridge or something. And of course the warehouse raves where hundreds of us would blissfully dance until sunrise. Different colour contact lenses were in then, also Doves, strawberry fields and lots more I've forgotten. It felt so so new and exciting then and not many people were in the know about it. I remember feeling so lucky to be part of the first ones on the London rave scene. We would find out where the rave would be about an hour or two before it got started. Going round and round on the M25 in a convoy of cars. Met so many people from all over uk. Literally had some of the best times in my life.
I remember hearing this and itching to go out clubbing, but was too young. Finally found my clubbing legs at 1994 at 5th Avenue in Ilford when I was 15. Thankfully bouncers weren't too hot on ID back then! This was one of the tunes played that night. Love it!
I remember this tune only because my mum used to play it when I was probably a toddler, I remember it being played in car stereos on night travels, big nostalgia tune for me.
Hello to all the old ravers out there who think they are the only ones who listen to this stuff when you've cracked open a beer and the kids have gone off to bed , or are out with their mates, I'm 44 and still love it . Kellys / Ulster Hall fogies ,, you are not alone !
Born in 95 I believe this tune is better than 95% of what is being released now, it just captures something really epic it puts a smile on my face and carries me forward, without fear but with happiness.
AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC. CLOSE YOUR EYES WHILE YOU LISTEN TO THIS ANDVTAKE YOURSELF BACK TO THE EARLY 90S. YOUR IN THE CLUB DANCING. AS YOU LOOK AROUND YOU SEE YOUR FRIENDS SMILING AND HAVING THE TIME OF THEIR LIVES. THE ATMOSPHERE IS UNBEARABLE. NOW TELL ME YOU DIDN'T GET EMOTIONAL BECAUSE OF THE GOOD TIMES OF RAVING THAT WE WILL NEVER EXPERIENCE AGAIN. ITS OK THOUGH BECAUSE, THE MEMORIES YOU HAVE WILL NEVER BE TAKEN AWAY. BECAUSE YOU WAS THERE!!
Swallowed a Rhubarb n custard. 3.30 am standing outside turmills in London I can hear this tune spinning, I get through the door walk down the stairs feeling the rush creep up, I'm at the edge of the dance floor and then BOOM! The bass on this drops. Miss the gd old days!
Me and my mate bunked in the swimming baths after dropping a rhubabrb and custard ,my body tingled all over as my jaw shuddered and the rush tingled up my spine ,eveything sounded crystal clear
you always remember your first E - mine was a Rhubarb and Custard back around 91, in Flicks in Brechin FFS! but still getting off on the same old tunes 27yrs later
I bought this record when it came out and straight away I said "when I hear this tune for the first time at a rave or in a club I bet I rush so much I throw up!" And I did. And every time thereafter. Beautiful tune, happy memories.
Leah Dixon I know exactly how you feel. Had some of the best times of my life in warehouse raves and underground clubs. I still get rushes from the tunes back then. THANK HEAVENS for youtube which keeps our memories alive.
Total banging choooooon brings back so many good times & memories of Real raves nothing like what they now call festivals - them times will never be seen again ever !!!! 56 and still loving the choons once a rave always a raver gets into the blood !!!!
One of the best tunes ever for all the people that raved in the 80’s early 90-92. Tenerife 90 we had a bomb. RIP Paul “ Spadge” Higgins. Always be missed. Doncaster massive.
Now I'm middle aged, the lyrics "remember the good times, don't you want some more" are bittersweet. To be there when it all happened was a privilege. It was pure magic. I don't go to raves anymore but I got the memories. Peace.
Everytime I hear this or one of the tunes like this that remind me back of those beautiful days makes me realise how special and how privileged I was to live through, dance through, sing through and love through them. Oh to have an opportunity to relive just one of those nights
These are still old time classics that will never fade from all our memories from the past. When music was at its peak till better times came around from there on .
What's going on with the dislikes? You'd have to be completely ignorant and tone deaf to not know this is one of THE best garage/ house tracks EVER made. Pure class!
Music is subjective and people are allowed their opinion, but “in my opinion” they may be that jealous bunch of rockers , not all rockers but the majority detest electronic music as if it was the Anti-Christ itself, the Luddites even tried to destroy the blossoming disco scene in the late 70s and pushed it back underground on 12th of July 1979, it was called “disco demolition night” and had ugly undertones of homophobia and racism, the rockers just couldn’t handle their genre of music being knocked off its perch in mainstream America, they even use arguments today like”that House&Techno music is so simple and shit, you don’t even create it the machines and computers do it for you........” which is so naive and backwards, that to me is just like saying “ the pen wrote the book!!!”, for me it’s pretty simple there is good music and there is bad music, now this musical revolution of House&Techno in the mid 80s for me is the greatest youth cultural revolution of all time , even bigger or certainly more influential than the hippy youth movement of the 60s , it was massive and championed love, freedom and anti-homophobic, anti-racism sentiments, a time of amazing art and musical ingenuity and creativity, of course the establishment hated it , it was a threat to their power and order, ultimately in the UK, which was the First Nation to embrace this new fresh black underground electronic music coming out of Chicago, Detroit and New York it was quashed by Margaret Thatcher and her establishment, they introduced the “criminal justice act” which forbid groups of up to 7 people meeting in a field and listening to music with repetitive beats, thus thwarting our freedom to hold illegal parties and just dance to amazing music, they were that scared of the scene, so everyone fucked off to Berlin and the rest is history, they failed in their miserable attempt to destroy the music as it has never been in a better state in my opinion and still going strong 35 years later! The music will never die and the beauty of it is as we witness a renaissance or second-wave generation of this amazing music is that it will continue to bring the world together and spread the political message that was behind House&Techno in the first place. All the “ravers” and pioneers of this scene in 80s and 90s children are now at an age where they go out clubbing and choose for themselves what music listen to and what nightclubs they frequent and I think the majority have chosen wisely they will carry on the progression and the creativity of this music having being well educated by the forerunners and pioneers of this amazing youth counter-culture movement. Peace.
This. Defining song of the best era of my life. I loved the early 90s... Have loved listening to so happy memories. So much cameraderie, closeness and community around on the rave scene... Everyone was equal on the dancefloor. PLUR. xx
Totally agree with all the comments..used to love dancing to this at the eclipse and shellys..amnesia house never forgotten..rave on brothers and sisters...
+Rob Taylor Well said Rob. Gat Decor Passion has it all as a dancers tune. Great to listen to on the headphones, but when you're on the floor it's a proper builder. My favourite part is that high stabbing piano.....ooooh!!! mix that with Blast... Crazy Man , and I'm off on one : )
+Emma Green Now you're talking Emma!! The" builds like a skyscraper mix" is my favourite. I think it's on the very first ministry of sound "the annual " that I heard it first, many moons ago. reminds me of Samba music but on steroids , then the huge string break. massive tune for me!!!
Get that sinking feeling now how time has passed by, thinking about the bygone days when everyone felt truly free. Feel sorry for the youths of today who won't ever experience what euphoria truly felt like! Feels like a dream now, but get flash backs when listening to the tunes. Long to go back to the rave yrs 💭💊😎
It just "is"!!!!!! If your an original late 80's acid house decipel then tunes like this are in your DNA,I'm mid 40's & each time I here this beautiful tune I'm 18 again at the early Amnesia House raves & early Eclipse nights in Coventry............rave on brothers n sisters,rave the fuck on!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yes fellow coventrarian it all started for me on fri nights in reflections then 13th floor thomas king house rizzla posse then house 1 in fenny drayton great dayz
Late 80's to mid nineties. What a fuckin great time we all had. 47 now and lifes different but being able to hear all these tunes on utube is indeed a blessing. Lettin loose on a dancefloor with likeminded people is somethin i will never forget. What days... what nights.

Top CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOON reminds me of working and living in London and early rave days,meeting up at Kings X..brings back great memories. Disco Biscuits at the ready
I still have the TDK c-90. Just an epic dance tune from the good old days. Me and the boys drove the M6 back from Warrington to Crewe in a beaten up Mini 1000 and would rewind this track to death. Some mates are gone now but the tune lives on.
While the youths of today are enjoying this iconic tune what the don’t have is a feeling that music and the ecstasy Was a revolution the raves we all loved each other we all danced with each other- we all lived for the weekend - the movement the music and the drugs went global we didn’t know where we were gonna end up but we did know was it was a good thing -they couldn’t control it, they tried but instead they killed it. We were privileged to live this special time in history - hats off to those who have passed and for those who were there , I kiss you, we lived in paradise-
I'm now 25 was born in 1992 so I missed the rave scene of the 90s bit I've loved this music ever since Ii was in my early teens this kind of music is beautiful, simple and full of emotion,
I was born in 1982 and while I was here when these tunes were made I wasn't old enough to be in clubs raving to them....but loved this music regardless
Always reminds me of a summer around 1995 when i got a camper van and holidayed in cornwall/devon for the summer, walked into tall trees in minehead, i think and this was playing. I knew it would be a good summer.
Jungalistboi96 it's out there somewhere man. I met some kids heading to the woods near Brighton, where a soundsytem awaited them. Also Europe and India, the spirit lives on in a different form, but a good one still....
Boy this takes me back, was so lucky to be there from the start what a magical time to be raving. I wouldn't change a thing from back in the day sweeeeeeet.
Tunes like this really makes me wish i was born in a different time. Born in 97 and the music nowadays doesn’t come close. Thank god for youtube, it makes all these classics available for people who love real music.
