Garage and Disco Classics

TJR FEAT. XAVIER - JUST GETS BETTER

I adore this track! A funky beat that just cannot be matched with a odd pitched woman in the background talking about the BBC license fee. Well, not really.

DA MOB FEATURING JOCELYN BROWN - FUN

Oohh this mix is as sweet as a cherry on a freshly layed bowl of cherries in a cherry tree park. If you don't get up and dance you must be dead it's THAT GOOD!

KRISTINE BLOND - LOVE SHY (Tuff Jam Classic Vocal)

Fantastic vocal from the young miss with a top-sausage beat. But I am sure she says lome-shome and not Love Shy. But who knows? I cannot even understand half the accents on Jerry Springer....

DOUBLE 99 - RIP GROOVE

This track is pretty much the one record everyone associates with Speed Garage. That and the underground hit "Ripe Pear" by George Formby released some years before.

TINA MOORE - NOBODY BETTER

You tell 'em Tina! There is noooobody better, lalalala. But I do wish all these famous musicians would stop making songs about me (I live in a dream world..don't wake me up from it....)

UNDO - R U SLEEPING?

This would be a great track for sleeping pills. Not because it's dull or boring (far from it folks) - just 'cos it has sleeping in the title. See! I am a clever boy really. I just PRETEND to be stupid!

SOMORE - I REFUSE (what you want)

Speed Garage classic from 1997 that was larger than a large thing holding a large banner. It was "in the house" "in the mix" and all that nonsense. (Well, in the Garage and not really in the house)

VOICES OF LIFE - THE WORD IS LOVE

Kelly's "lets you go" mix - great track in 1998 from AM:PM. They later went on to invent Dried Prunes but never quite matched these dizzy heights again.

BARBARA TUCKER - EVERYBODY DANCE (the horn song)

Sampling the old skool "Horn Song" classic. Lovely fish indeed and very New York(ish). Reminds me of the old Texan bars. Now WHERE did they go?

LADYCOP - TO BE REAL

Funky and deep(ish) classic release that's as smooth as a baby's botty! Many requests for this one, and you can certainly see why...it has "that" feel to it.....wonderful !

NU-BIRTH - ANYTIME

Another speed garage track that has been overplayed but what the heck! Enjoy it you wonderful people. It's still my "all time tip top flip flop clip clop" chart favourite!

H20 FEAT BILLIE - NOBODY'S BUSINESS

Euro vocal mix from the 1996 release that stormed the UK charts like a big stormtrooper. Apparently it's nobody business what she does, which is nice.

2 FAT BUDDHAS VS FAT HEAD - WHEEL 'EM IN

Forget that chart version by bamboo - this is the way to rework an old disco tune!! Bit of rap mixed in with a pop party feeling....and you cannot get better then that!

Z FACTOR - GOTTA KEEP PUSHIN'

Yet again another famous disco track is sampled - and this time to good effect. Stick with it and see, it's like a locket. Hard on the outside and all gooey and sweet inside!

SYLVESTER - DO YOU WANNA FUNK?

The 1991 remix by those wonderful Italians again - much more of an anthem now with ten tons of piano. I am addicted to them. But not so much in the Trafford Centre...

K-JEE - SHELLSHOCK

OOohh Jazz. From the tip-tapping fingers this has got a beat so divine you can almost feel your hips swinging as the music plays. With a touch of Austin Powers to it too ;)

STRETCH "N" VERN - IM ALIVE

Rare as gold dust at first- then went on to be be a mega huge chart smash in the UK. Really did start the trend for "house-disco" track combos....Lovely!

THE ZONE- BRING ME BACK

A touch of disco pumps into this nice and cheerful tune from logic records, 1996. The year that I discovered the secret to life - Plenty of sleep and hot baps.

PROSPECT PARK - MOVIN' ON

The Joey Negro mix gets the crowd a 'jumpin...fantastic upbeat garage sound! Kinda strange really. Garage, House. Why is there no funky roof or jazzy cellars?

THE ABSOLUTE - I BELIEVE

Gospel-tastic piano driven anthem mate, with a real high uptempo! Swoon! The other version of this is far more Gospel but this one seems to carry the message just as well - and funkier!

SMOKIN BEATS - DREAMS

From two years ago on the AM:PM label (again) a lovely track that has a hidden meaning to it....Don't ask what that meaning is of course - you will just have to buy the bloomin' thing!
