  1. whenever I try to listen on this site to posted tunes the vid never plays and the screen that comes up is like an advert one with 12 windows.....do I need to click on something obvious or do I need to update something? :blink:

  2. Well haven't listened to much recently and thought I'd check some out that I'd not got around to listening to much. I've scrawlled a note saying 'gem for me' and looking back over it I can see why. I liked a tune, I think by CJ Bolland ? - the Prophet, which appears to be sampled here, and also a version of Snap and a Everthing But the Girl tunage (being a fogie liking old skule stuff.) Loved the mix at the end :D

  3. Welcome... :)

    Too right feel privileged, as am from the opposit end of the age spectrum :lol:

    We were veering that way anyway through early 90s dance and Pete Tong when me and my partner split, but with the 'reinvention' thing after became a taxi for my nephew and his mates and freqented the local dance clubs where people just went to dance not to pull.....good times.

  4. :lol: I was old then!

    I hit the scene in 98 after coming out of a long relationship doing the proverbial reinvention thing and being a taxi for my nephew and his mates. I've been through many scenes as it were, primarily rock based but with an excursion into the new romantic/new wave thing early 80s as music developed. Thing is, when these trends develop they are great, vibrant and new; there seems to be a creative energy which lasts a few years but generally starts petering out when comercialism gets involved. TBH, I find those years 98-around 02 the easiest to retune to and they're what I listen to the most. I really have to be in a certain mood to listen to anything else, and I don't think it's because it's most the recent music in my life experience. I got invovled in a dodgy kind of relationship at that time which could have affected my memories/emotions but it hasn't. The music lives on.... :)

    This lost classic, shot on 16mm in a wintry Berlin in 1993,

    explores the origins of the now monumentally massive German Trance and Dance music scene.

    With interviews with luminaries such as Dr Motte, Paul van Dyk, Laurent Garnier, Paul Browse, Mijk van Dijk and MFS label supremo Mr Mark Reeder

    this now legendary exploration into the underworld of what was the most significant force in driving dance music forward in the 20th century.

    It contains rare early footage of the 1991 and 1993 Love Parade, and of the now bulldozed Mutoid Waste Company land,

    E-Werk and Tresor - Berlin's legendary (and now closed) clubs that started it all in the former East Berlin.

    Directed by Ben Hardyment

    this documentary is imbued with an uplifting and extremely positive energy

    - there are rumours of a film sequel in the pipeline, but for now, sit back and enjoy 25 minutes of pure trance music history.
