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.

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.

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!

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.

I thought they were 'steam cleaning the vaults siirrr'!

I'm waiting for the one that's selling viagra, and wants my bank account details. You can always trust those.

I think the Kaiser Chiefs' 'everyday I love you less and less' works well at weddings.

Chicane Feat. Bryan Adams - Don't Give Up Tomcraft - Lonliness Lucid - I Can't Help Myself (Those two drop well if you mix the start of Lucid over the vocal of Tomcraft, extended mixes...) William Orbit - Barber's Adagio For Strings Armand Van Helden - You Don't Know Me Armand Van Helden - I Want Your Soul Armand Van Helden - My My My Madison Avenue - Don't Call Me Baby Modjo - Lady Supermen Lovers - Starlight Chris Lake - Changes Room 5 - Make Luv Solu Music Feat. Kimblee - Fade (Bimbo Jones Mix) Shapeshifters - Lola's Theme Shakedown - At Night (Kid Creme Remix ain't bad either) M&S Pres. Girl Next Door - Salsoul Nugget Stardust - Music Sounds Better (Or the Spacedust bootleg if you want a 130 bpm stronger version) Snap Vs Plaything - Do You See The Light Starchaser - Love Will Set You Free Rui Da Silva - Touch Me Rhythm Masters - The Underground (Phunk Investigation Remix) Riva - Stringer (up to you if you play the original or the cheesy vocal one) Ida Corr Vs Fedde Le Grande - Let Me Think About It Dave Spoon - At Night I guess if there are 20+ year olds in there you could go up to 2008/9 way, can't really think of any big lasting dance tracks from around then though. I'll suggest more if any come to mind. Maybe have a gander through Dave Pearce's old tracklistings archive, I actually find a few forgotten gems in there. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/davepearce/tracklistings.shtml

I'll have to have a look. I'll probably just stick them online in their entirety at some point when I have some time.
