Serato also has that problem with analyzing tunes, more so than Traktor I find. Quite a few old trance tunes I've ripped off vinyl it'll determine it's something daft like 87bpm, and if you change the range it's close to 200bpm. Luckily I started on vinyl and can still easily beat match. But even if it's close to the proper reading, it can still be out. The F&W Mix of Commander Tom's attention on mine for example is a good 0.6% out.

Exactly, I'll buy it and support it. I will be honest if this was made in 2000 amongst everything else, it would of been down as good but not in the top 5 of the moment. Today it's a breath of fresh air from the past, a nice build up and no dissapointing electro SHM bullcrap after the drop. Hope it insipres likewise, if deep house can come back and make everything sound similar to 1995 again. Then there is a bit of hope.

I like it, I'd love this to spark off some proper/nostalgic productions now. But I fear it will just be a flash in the pan. Still nice to hear though!

Once you make one post as far as I know.

Cracking track, One of the big pirates that used to be round this way, Groove FM, used to play it a lot around August/September 2001. I've actually worn the first few seconds of my copy out.

Did Jules ever play this tune on any of his R1 shows? Yeah, towards the end of 2004. I have it on one or two of my recordings. I found it in my tracklisting for 6.11.04 and also found it on youtube ....uploaded by your good self. Great tune, love it! :thumbsup: I imagine the rights issues made it impossible to distribute. If it were around today then it would probably just end of a freebee on soundcloud, Jules probably had it emailed to him and spun it on the CDJ's as they were in use back then. I've never even been able to track down whoever made it, Vortex could be anyone really. So it's one lost in time.

Wow, Warrior If You Want Me. Totally forgot that one, what a tune.

Many tunes define Jules for me, but I'm gonna put down: Airwave - Save Me David Forbes - Questions (Kaystone Mix) Frank T.R.A.X - Nebuchan (O.R.G.A.N Mix) No-One Driving - Playa Sol (Original Mix) Bobak & Lambert - The Battle Airwave maybe a first choice if you like, but any of those for me really. I'd LOVE to throw Vortex - Scarface in there from 2004. But I don't even think Jules has that about anymore. And there's no traceable copy as it was never released, even as a white label.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica X if it's your thing.

I guess there could be a way to use the audio on here and sync it up in Sony Vegas. The youtube footage is bareable I guess, but it's the audio that's naff. Whoever capped the clean audio for here however still must have the video they took it from.

There's a good quality version on here from his NEC set at Gatecrasher in April 2001. The video is on youtube for it, but the audio isn't so good on that. I recall finding another set he did taken from Rapture on youtube a few years ago, earlier in 2001 I believe. I remember hearing the Lucid Remix of American Dream by Jakatta on it.

I actually enjoyed this at the time. Dave Pearce always did this every Monday to Thursday out of Newsbeat. From when he was put into that time slot. I think he started the show that way even when Moyles finished at 5.45. I do recall it left the 1210's vinyl, trance and house stuff about 2003. There used to be a mix, but it was more commercial and Radio 1 playlist based. I remember Faint by Linkin Park featuring in it that year one time, digitally slowed down quite a lot. I guess Dave Pearce didn't do it by then and ut was preped before the show. He was replaced by Sara Cox a year latwr, and then Scott Mills. As Mark & Lard left Radio 1 and Chris Moyles moved to breakfast.

I can't choose one, impossible for me. But Gatecrasher Summer Sound System 2001, the Saturday show. Always recall him dropping Hide U by Kosheen, Playa Sol, Stringer and starting With Precious Heart (Riva Remix) September 15th 2001. The post 9/11 show, mostly for Iio Rapture remix, Silicone Soul, G Club and Banda Sonora. Most of all the 'Hey Little Girl' track he played. The mood of the nation perfectly reflected, yet coming out of mourning (hence Radio 1 letting Chris Moyles do his last ever Saturday show that very day). Summer 2006, the Essential Mix he shared with Sander Van Doorn. The very last year Jules was at his peak for me, and trance. I stayed up that night to record the show on my PC via a dab radio plugin. Still have it on an old harddrive, but being as it's an Essential Mix it's not rare. I remember the crowd noise when he dropped Cherry Blossom by Marcell Woods, then mixed into Super8 Get Off. And finished with Team SR 'Leaving London'. Not part of the golden era but up there with the best he's done for me. Gatecrasher NEC Aoril 2001. David Forbes Questions, reminds me of watching that live on a Friday night on Rapture TV. 12 years old and too young to be there. Airwave's 'Save Me' retains a special place in my heart from that night on. Essential Selection, Sound City October 1997. Obviously never listened to this live as I was 9 years old at the time. But listening back to it reminds me of a time in my life, and those tracks I recall now were speed garage tracks. Hence why I asked for RIP Groove at a primary school disco, caught the bug early i guess.

Tiesto featured on Jules' Global Gathering live broadcast, on Radio 1 in July 2005. I have that recorded on an old harddrive. Tiesto was virtually unheard of in 1999, he seemed to hide behind the Gouryella alias with Ferry Corsten. Until 2000 when his remix of Delerium's 'Silence' blew him out into the open. Now look at him, remixing Beyonce's Drunk in Love...

The mix of 'Down With The Underground' isn't Jules' own mix he played on here, or at least I don't think. It's less bass heavy than the one that made it to the vinyl release. http://youtu.be/7afwGV5rAfcreleas Ir maybe he played a demo remix that never saw the light of day. This is still one of the greatest mixes Jules has ever done. All the speed garage reminds me of Resident Evil 2 on the playstation, simply because I remember my older cousin playing it when it came out. And he was always playing garage and trance tapes when I was a kid.

Just seen Judge Jules on ITV News talking about him. Astonishing what he helped start off, they'll still be playing his tunes when Guetta is long gone. http://www.itv.com/news/2014-04-01/godfather-of-house-music-frankie-knuckles-dies-aged-59/

This is a great chance for the newer Jules fans to see what he used to be about in the late 90's and early 00's too.

They post some interesting stuff about Portugal. Apart from that I can't make sense of it!

Warrior's "If" is still such a tune. Remember hearing this in a field in Wales of all places.

For me Jules seemed to be at his best right from about 95 or 96 during the euro house era, right through to about 2005 for me. The trance era is always his most noticable time, but his sets through those 10 or so years always contain so much energy and effort. Can easily listen to a 97 show, then hear something from 2003 like creamfields. The last Jules "point" if you like that I can relate back to, is probably that Essential Mix he did in summer 2006 with Sander Van Doorn. I remember staying up and recording it from DAB, he was playing stuff like Cherry Blossom by Marcel Woods, Team Sr Leaving London, Super8 Get Off. 2006 was probably the last year before things spun away for me. One of my fave DJ's/producers right now is Shadow Child (aka Dave Spoon). He's championing the style which is a greatful breakaway from this EDM crap. Leftwing & Kody, Foamo, Hannah Wants, Gorgon City aren't doing some bad stuff either. Unless the late 90's early 00's Junior Jack/Roger Sanchez style also makes a comeback, then it's about the only strain of dance music that interests me right now.

They did have CDJ's back then, looks like they kept them far away. Must of still been too unstable to use at a place like that.

Special times. Remember hearing quite a lot of these tracks played by a few DJ's, including a particular pirate station I used to hear around here back then. Such a long time back now.

I've actually heard that once or twice, all be it on a pirate station around here that used to exist back in the early 00's. Jules Radio 1 show from sound city in October 1997 has to be one of my favorite downloads on here. The quality is a little bad being as it sounds like the cassette was played (a lot) in someone's car, but you can tell it was at that time where speed garage was huge. And trance was also starting to gain bigger recognition. It's the perfect blend between the two, and reminds me of certain times in my life back then and points where I started to notice dance music. It has a place on my headphones, full blast whilst I'm on the treadmill in the gym!

I was too young. I turned 18 in 2006, just as things started to turn 'electronic'. Although I wasn't able to go out back then I did live the music as much as I could. House/Trance/Garage was my main interest, or dance music in general as to say. The three tracks that caught my interest back then was Double 99 - RIP Groove, Stardust - Music Sounds Better, and the biggest one that made me sit up and take notice was Adagio for Strings by William Orbit in 1999. After that I caught the bug at an early age and listened to DJ's like Tong, Dave Pearce, a few others on local/pirate stations. And of course Jules on Saturday Nights. One of my main memories is watching Jules on Rapture TV back in 2001, playing at Gatecrasher @ NEC in Birmingham infront of thousands of people. I lost interest when the EDM sound started up in 2007/8, but have regained a lot of interest now that is fading away with the Deep House/UK Garage sound re-emerging. But it still doesn't create the same buzz as hearing tracks from back then.
