Best eurodance


Lemmiwinks

Recommended Posts

Before psytrance I was into hardcore... and before hardcore I was into eurodance. Well, when I look back some melody structures were like trance so it's all related in the end if you ask me.

 

anyway, if you'd have to choose a top 5 what would it be?

 

Here's mine:

 

1. DJ Bobo - Love Is All Around

2. Captain Hollywood Project - Impossible

3.

4. Ice MC - Rainy Day

5. Maxx - Getaway

 

how bout you? ;)

well, my beginnings were with stuff like E-Rotic - Fred, Come to Bed (we used to make fun of it in school) ... and then Dune - Million Miles from Home and Mr. President - Coco Jambo and all the other stuff on the Bravo Hits CDs ... I actually don't wanna get into that...

 

and later there was the better stuff, some of it which I still like today:

 

Dance 2 Trance - Power of American Natives : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9UsNZIInjo ... and it was exactly this version, the '98 one! 11 years ago, I was 13 back then, yep, yep, that was my favourite song ... aaah, the memories, definitely the best one ^_^

Then there was Vertigo - Magic Eyes :

... loved that one!

DJ Quicksilver deserves a mention too! Here's Escape to Paradise : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FViRmIqCQY4

And Music Instructor ... omg, I loved them, still like them ... they were the only ones with an Abe (from Oddworld, does anybody know?) video and I was a crazy Oddworld fan back then (still love the first two Abe games!) ... here's Get Freaky :

And then there was Phil Fuldner - The Final. Absolutely cool tune because I got such a strong memory of it. This was the first time I expereinced sensations from actually simple sounds and got to see that electronic music can be art : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wirlQI4GD04

Not quite sure what Eurobeat is but I feel like it is the pop form of pop trance that IM could onloy hope to be.

 

I was a big fan of

:lol:

Shiiit I should have included this on my list: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53dp5ZmSXH0 B)

 

 

:o I can't believe RTP wubbed his post :lol::P *Love my brother :)

 

And HELL YEAH !! Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee was tha shiii.. I mean FART!! :lol: I loved that game SO much :D

I actually had a talk with my (real :P) brother about it the other day. He was telling me about a guy who posted a impressive speedrun.

Here you go!! :D :D

To bad the Abe voice isn't the English one, but still yo kool.

 

And that track, I bought it on CDS. Wonder where it is today? Oh the good old VIVA days :rolleyes:

That was when I stopped liking them. Their first album was a lot cooler (and cheesier). Here's the tune "Hymn":

And my favourite tune of that era, from the more serious side of Cheesy^trance, RMB - Spring:

ah funny I've heard both the tracks mentioned by Music Instructor but for some reason I never thought it was the same artist behind them... even funnier is that I just clicked on some youtube links and found out that Hymn was in fact originally made by some band called

back in 1974 :ph34r:

 

 

As for RMB, they're definately in a class of their own :) My personal fave is

you still hear that one quite often in Belgian retro parties ;)

Aesome topic!

 

My absolute 5 picks of 'those' days would be:

 

#1) DJ's At Work- Balloon (el globo) (full Mix)

#2) Captain Jack- Captain Jack

#3) Whigfield- Saturday night

#4) Music Instructor- Hymn

#5) Scatman John- Scatman

 

The list looks kinda embarassing now, don't it? It used to rock my boat many a' times, I tell you!

I was born in 1977 and grown up exactly in the era of euro-house/euro-dance; whatever name you like. 1994-1995 were the heyday years, up to somewhere in 1996 it still existed but after the scene dwindled; commercial trance started to rule. Countless are the tracks that I remember. The first tracks I taped were of this kind; but I also taped "repetitive music" which later I discovered was called Techno, Goa, Hardcore...and turned to that by 1996.

 

My friends still enjoy having those tunes on their mobiles :lol:

Actually I think this resembles Antiloop somewhat, sure it's hollow and bad. BUt somehow in it's genre I think it's good and kinda good produced. Ohh the memories :)

Loved it when I was a kid, love some of it to this day.

 

I'm escpecially a big fan of Sash!. Classics like Adelante, Encore un fòuis, Ecuador, the secret, Mysterious times++ are timeless, and fantastic, trance/ dance songs IMO.

 

What I like about alot of dance and trance is the emphasis on cathcy, positive and fun melodies :posford:

* Bellini - Samba De Janeiro

* GEM - I feel you tonight Bonus:

* Kadoc - The Night Train

* Mystic - Ritmo de la Noche

(Torsten Fenslau!)

 

And a couple of later, slightly faster tunes verging on makina/happy hardcore, catchy as hell:

* Pont Aeri - Flying Free

 

Can't say if this is proper eurodance, but it's cool:

 

* Into Magic - Zauberstab

This thread furthers my belief that there are nothing but 12-16 boys on this site.

 

I would be embarrassed to be European with the video: "Captain Hollywood Project" :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

and I did laugh out loud at it. Even the name : Captain Hollywood Project !!! Shit that is funny!

this is the new entertainment thread! :wank:
