Retro House/Techno/Trance/Dance Thread.

Ok, kids of the nineties. Time for some nostalgia !

:belly: :elephant: :belly:

Here we go! Cm'on!

Let's start with some real Belgian retro house/trance/dance classics:

Bonzai! - Bonzai Channel One

Cherrymoon Trax II - Let there be House

Bonzai - Belgium Jump!

Jones & Stephenson - First Rebirth

Space Frog - Follow me

Krid Snero - White line

WARNING: title of this particular song might be offensive, but hell, this is one great track!

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

:daisy: Babyboomers - Absolom

Afflito - Fiocco (Unfortunately not the best quality - feel free to post a better version)

Milk Inc - In my eyes

Some more classix

Energy 52 - Café del Mar

Age of Love - Age of Love (Jam & Spoon mix)

A nice compilation

And if you like a bit "harder", check this

This list is far from complete.

Post your beats, get on your feet and dance!

I was looking for one of the most idiot songs of them all from Tnt, but couldn't find it. So we'll have to do with the second most idiot song:

D-Devils - dance with the devil

You really couldn't find anything worse, could you?

Let's stick to good retro shall we?

Bonzai mega mix

Cherrymoon

And if you need to burn some calories, try hacking/jumping on this:

Just follow the rythm ~;)

Scooter - Move your :daisy:

And some more hardcore. Try working out with this on maximum volume:

Marshall Masters - I like it loud

Marshall Masters

Scooter - hyper hyper

Indeed, I tried searching for "al wie dan niet springt" but I couldn't find it anywhere.

Also you posted Milk Inc. :no:

EDIT: ALs je echt kalorieën wil verbranden raad ik je aan te jumpen op speedcore!

Can I assume that you will be in Essen this year around August 25th?
Maybe you need a hint.

I don't have much of an idea about retro stuff or what fits into what genre exactly, mostly I just listen to Beirut Nights Radio as you may know. Most of their music is softer than what you posted I think. Let me give some examples:

Mario Lopez - Alone

Karma - Amore mio

Scooter - One (Always Hardcore)

Paolo Ligorio - The colours of my life (myspace link)

Well, that's it for now, it's not retro anyway...I'm soooo uncool.:oops:

Equador - Sash!
(don't know why that video is on it as it's not about equador, those birds come from Indonesia but wth)

Hardcore/ Hard Dance mix

Andere hardcore mix

Miro - Purple Moon

Gah, can't look at them here, this computer crashes when watching Youtube, but be sure to have something from the "gabber"-scene

Some oldies:

Natural born deejays - a good day

Fiocco - Afflitto - really great song.

Absolom - Secret

Thunderdome 93!

Gabber enough, Stig?

EDit: What do you have with Fiocco, Andres? Me not likey.

Bonzai TJATJATJATAMJA UUUUUUUUUUUUMCHAAAAAAAAAAA

Hardcore classic, http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=Vm-L4amIHNM

Yep, Frag was Gabber.

Hmmm, not a very clip of Flesh.

The Classic; http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=yolo2ZybZJU

Hmm, that old stuff is only partly good IMO. Let me present some more of the new stuff I like:

FHM High Street Honeys - I Touch Myself
Warning: Contains girls who don't behave like nuns.

Starsplash - Cold As Ice 2.07
I like this one.

Another classic from the nineties:

The house of house

And some more Cherrymoon: Acid dream

That song ain't bad, feel verry Jeckyll & Hyde, but that clip is horrible. Those girls can't even the steps of jump. And jump is already really easy, especially the steps.

Another hardcore classic, one of the greatest ever.

:sleeping: ~:rolleyes:

I don't know, but I find hardcore rather boring, it's just boom, boom, boom, and this one even has some weird voice disturbing the "music". ~;)

Might also be a good time to have a look at this again.

Most of the music I like can probably be found somewhere in the House and Trance sections. Like this:

Alice Deejay - Better off alone

And Moros, I'd certainly not know any better than those girls.:laugh4:

Well you have to hear it loud, it's all energy. Some of that all boom is surprisingly well composed, but you don't hear that on pc-speakers. Bass twisting, sucking, curling..... Youth sentiment rather then artistic apreciation though :beam:

listen, carefully http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=kID2Oo...elated&search=

^-good example

more

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=n0VF0sVoUZM

also

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=rvCwb3yPtWA

All started with this one, first hardcore track

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=WNlwdbyTjH0


ps Andres, could kiss you for this thread! Shave first though

There are other sounds, yes, but it still seems too repetitive for my taste.
Maybe one has to take those coulourful pills to appreciate it.:sweatdrop:

I liked that blues or so you posted in another thread a lot better. ~;)

I once liked it, some long time ago, when I was a young kid. Now I prefer proper music.

I hear you, but you have to admit, the youth sentiment gives this music some extra.

On the other hand, maybe you were a bit too young at the time this music was at his peek.

Some more:

Milk Inc - Oceans (remix)

The Mackenzie feat Jesse - Innocence

The Mackenzie feat Jessy - I am free

The Mackenzie feat Jessy - All I need

And this song has something "hot", "hot" like in: imagine some good looking girl dancing in front of you and you go dancing right next to her, close, try to catch her eyes, ah, grrrrr... : The Mackenzie feat Jessy - without you


Oh, and look at what I found. Great song, really great, and it's belgian :2thumbsup: --> Praga Khan - Breakfast in Vegas

Was talking about your legs.

And Husar, me too, won't find it's way in my cd-player nowadays, used to love it though :yes:

I was trying to find Ram Eye from Commander Tom (or whatever it was called),

This version seems different from what I remember

But I refuse to open my infamous box of old cds...

!

Superb thread! I love old dance stuff!! :yes: :egypt:

There's so much cool stuff.. but to call a few of the best..

- 2 Brothers on the 4th floor. (like 90% of their songs is awesome, so it's simpler to just give the artists name ;))
- charly lownoise & mental theo (same story)
- gunther!
- gigi d'agostino


- captain jack - captain jack
- scatman john - scatman john
- cascada - everytime we touch
- rollergirl - lemonade
- scoop - drop it
- marshall masters - i like it loud
- Culture Beat - Mr. Vain

must haves, really ~:)

Excellent taste good sir, excellent taste. This is my favourite 2 Brothers-song: Never alone

Reminds me of 2 Unlimited (met de lekkere Anita :eyebrows:). Used to get crazy on this song:
Jump for joy.

Gah, I want to be 18 again!

Know that one, very cool.:2thumbsup:


Sasha Dith - Russian Girls is nice as well, though I heard "Sasha Dith - Russian Girls 2007 (F`s Radio Edit)" which I liked a bit better than the original, it's just not on the tube.

I had difficulties to concentrate on the music :sweatdrop:

sorry moros, I hadn't been clicking all the youtube links. ~;) and Culture Beat is a must have among the must haves.. simply extremely cool! I like crying in the rain as well.. but it's not less good, among the must haves, but not among the must haves among the must haves, :inquisitive: :dizzy2: well

and Andres.. yeah, I love them too. must say, Never Alone is my favourite as well. ~:) But like I said.. the majority of their songs is awesome ~:) :egypt:

Do these count?

Fool's Gold
Brimful of Asha
One to Another
I am the Resurrection
Girls 'n' Boys
Praise You

Well as for trance, there's always Cygnus X:

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=g4IFsBUPGF0

I'd say this is somewhat of a gabber classic (don't mind the clip):

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=E9KzFd...elated&search=

Techno classic, that's hard really, can't think of any at the moment.

Don't apologize. IT's already great to have you posting!

Those of you who saw the movie "Madagascar", probably now this one:

Reel 2 real - I like to move it

And another one:

Ice MC - Think about the way

Blasphemer! Trance is the only way of a true man :grin2:

Here's epic one . year 1994 :2thumbsup:
(:shame:)

This one a bit crappy quality, but damn, its a track since which I turned to trance 9 years ago! 7th track on my first casette .... :2thumbsup:

Well, not really 90ties stuff, but I accidentally stumbled upon this one again. It's from 2006 and it fits well in this thread:

Gebroeders Ko - Ik heb een Boot (Boten Anna)

Ah, good ol' 2 Fabiola...

I'm on Fire

Lift U up

And another from 2 Brothers on the 4th Floor

Dreams

:jumping:

Ian van Dahl - Castles in the sky:
http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=8xyr4eFap4w
(go directly to 1:30)

A real classic hwhich I think is a bit forgotten: Kosmonova - Ayla (DJ tiësto remix from a DJ Taucher remix):
http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=g_9fdfyl72o

I think we could use some Daft Punk:

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=nPBmXEO3yUU

and a bit late but 2001 should be alright:
http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=Cva_sG...eature=related

and Juno Reactor as well:

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=6KzCAl...rsist_locale=1

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=8QF7W0...rsist_locale=1

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=5144-M...rsist_locale=1

one more, here's Junior Jack

Indeed feels like J&H, that one. And I prefer most J&H songs over it. Het initial start of the melody is great.. but it's less 'trancy' later on.

Btw, in the past ... 6 or so months, a different genre has conquered my mind. Hardstyle. (more specific, preferably the newer kind of hardstyle, sometimes called 'Nustyle'... it's more melodic)

It's pretty hard sometimes though, and most of the time there's few variation. I love it, but I can imagine others not doing so.

Nice examples;

Headhunterz:

Noisecontrollers:

(note that most have intro's and outro's, which are probably even worse for those who don't like harddance music.. you might want to skip them)

Gotta love it! :love:

Btw, Moros, do you ever 'jump' nowadays? (Ik sta hier wel'ns te stampjumpen bij de zeldzame keren dat ze hier jump/hardstyle draaien..niet dat er veel fatsoenlijks gedraaid wordt.. dj porny.. lol. gadver)

Aangezien ik meestal op café zit fo werk, nee nooit. Tenzij voor de grap. Idem hakken, stampen,... en dergelijken.

stampen ken/kan ik niet. (wel van gehoord, maar nooit zelfs maar gezien) hakken gebeurt meestal wel een paar keer op de gemiddelde avond hier. ~;)

Jumpen en hakken is voor paupers met schoteloogjes en campingsmoking, dat heeft gewoon niks te doen met de dwingende energie en dito moves van een goede techno-plaat.

Dutch invasion!

Does Phil Collins enter this thread?

Calvin Harris - The Girls.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49ZF5IvoAxs

I get all the girls, I get all the girls... I wish. :laugh4:

I have been to the mountain top and it is filled with chunky beatz.

Leila K - Open Sesame
http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=ibjZ3b7pkGg

Da Hool - Meet her at the loverparade:
http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=wh0MLMVPB4k

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Orbital yet.

Glad to see Juno Reactor, Praga Khan, and Ian van Dahl make it on here though.

I prefer a little harder "edge" to my music but I do have a soft spot for Orbital.

Does Gothic/Industrial, Synthpop, Powernoise, or EBM count for this thread? If so, I have plenty of other bands to list.

*** Casts resurrection spell on thread ***

I don't know about you guys, but anyone else getting the impression that there's a little revival of house and dance music going on lately (since a year or so)? Or has it never really been away?

Examples:

Laurent Wolf - Wash my world
Laurent Wolf - No stress
Guru Josh Projekt - Infinity
Robert Abigail - Merengue
Robert Abigail - Mojito song

Also, a group as Milk Inc has never been so popular as now in Belgium. All their concerts in the Antwerp Sportpaleis are sold out (and I've been there last night :2thumbsup:).

Could it be that the days of good taste are coming back?

There's been a LOT of covers of 90's dance songs lately, here are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

WARNING - Some videos may contain content that may be NSFW!

Something Good 2008 - Utah Saints

Eiffel 65 - Blue 2009

Cathy Denis - Touch Me 2009

Snap - Rhythm is a Dancer 2009
