Sitting here, spinning some old tunes, got any more?
My personal favourite bitd was Prodigy's 'No Good'. If the DJ dropped that my night was made.
The original version of Where love lives.
Liquid - Sweet Harmony
One of the songs of my youth....
So, a good resource for all these old, glorious hardcore tunes?
Break of dawn - rhythm on the loose

Saw her do a live pa in krystals in Leicester in 98! 12 bloody years ago, seems like yesterday!
Jools - what was that track that was played at White Waltham "go mental... " - was it Oranges & Lemons? The whole hangar jumped when the music kicked back in after the drop.
Bassheads - phew that takes me back. Spot the osmonds sample.
Back in the day these guys from sevenoaks did a live pa at a club night I was doing with my bro, amazing

Wot, no Urban Cookie Collective? ๐
Good god, I hate that song almost more than Edwyn f*ckin collins.
Some real classics so far, only makes me wish even more that I'd been 10 years earlier so I could have apreciated them when they came out, rather than years later!
Here's another absolute classic that's not been posted yet...
Enjoy!

I went to The Wag club in London in 1988 when acid house was hitting the scene - oh my god - you would not believe what it was like for an 18 year old from Buckingham to go down to London, be nervous about trying to get in, and then on getting in just having a mind blowing time. I think the thing about experiencing all these tunes the first time was that there really was no precedent - I was then at Nottingham University where Graham Park from the Hacienda would play, and then we were into much deeper house with the DiY sound system and free parties and all of that more tribal house. Loving all these tunes people are choosing.
I always liked [url=
- Open your mind[/url]
I should though add a couple of tunes
How's about a bit of [url=
Tin out - always something there to remind me[/url]
I do believe it was the Judges tune of the year in '99 
And there there was this [url=
n' Joy - Dreamer[/url] got my first girlfriend at a college social when this came on ๐
My word, almost forgot about this one [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc_KKB_isv0 ]JX - nothing i won't do[/url]
Yeah,we would go on the M25 in the car, listen to pirate radio, and when the venue was announced, go there. No 'bar' no alcohol, just [ahem] and cans of soft drinks (coke/fanta etc), no violence (did you look at my bird/spill my drink) everyone had a great time, no coke, no knives, no ban on tap water in the toilets. You could hug who you wanted, as a woman you were free to mingle. Then the f*cking politicians/nanny state-ers wanted in regulated, so it was put into clubs, mixed with alcohol/coke - guess what? people died! SURPRISE!
Did someone say rave ๐

Sounds like my experience going to Birmginham in 1998, not expecting to get in to Gods Kitchen (then at the Sanctuary in Digbeth), but managing to get in and have an awesome time! On my 18th birthday no less!
Still... House had been around for 10 years by that time already... ๐
crashdummy, if we're going down the mid 90's trance route, here's a couple of gems for you... (when trance was good of course!)
A few from my yoof:

Living Joy - Dreamer!
And there was a track a while before that one, that used to go round and round in my head. Think it was called U Sure Do, perhaps by Strike? Or Gala? Properly cheesy!
And about a million more in my head.
Kof9 I met the guy who climbed up onto the roof supports and stopped that Sunrise at White Waltham, he was a nice bloke had had 5 Calais before he went off and did that..
For me though the tune that defines that summer is this

What an awesome thread, too many tunes buzzing around in my head to make sense and post links at the moment, will do shortly
I just wish i was another 10 years older so could have been there when House first started
Bloody hell. Must have most of these on vinyl. Did someone mention Zone tapes. That takes me back. ๐
