Favourite tracks of 1995...
For me, 1995 was the year that the sound of British "Trance" was just starting to take off into the sound more commonly associated with 1995, as opposed to the more acidy sounding years of 1993/1994. Back then, the line between trance and progressive house was very thin, and many tracks that most people would recognise as "Trance" of today were classed as "progressive house" then, or sometimes as "Epic House".
Anyway, here goes mine:
Sunday Club - Paladian Dawn
Beat Foundation - Foundations (Original) - doesn't come close to the masterful 97 rework, "Foundations II" but still a highly innovative, beautiful and original production at the time.
Marco Polo - A Prayer To The Music (John Digweed's Northern Exposure Mix)
Sandman - Coimbra
Pet Shop Boys - Paninaro 95 (Tin Tin Out Remix)
Blue Amazon - Four Seasons
Atlas - Beauty
Kimball & Dekkard - Hardlife (Fade Remix)
Grace - Not Over Yet
Grace - Skin On Skin
Dubster - Stars (Way Out West Remix)
Amos - Church Of Freedom (Quivver Dub)
Union Jack - Red Herring
X Cabs - Adena
Chris & James - Fox Force Five (Big C's Break Of Dawn Mix)
Art Of Trance - Octupus
BT - Embracing The Sunshine
BT - Tripping The Light Fantastic
Sian - Dreams
Cygnus X - The Orange Theme (Red Jerry's Prolecult Mix)
Coyote - Hidden Clouds

Wow, I didn't even realize that Anomaly was that far back. I thought it was 1996. In that case Calling Your Name and Earoica take the cake. I think Anomaly still sounds better than most everything out there right now. It's a masterpiece.
I didn't know Lost In Love was that far back either. Fantastic as well.
I always thought Higher State Of Consciousness got way too much attention. And I never really liked Be As One; one of Sasha's production lows in my opinion.
Haven't heard of most others there. Thanks for the references everyone!

Yes, Anomaly was originally released in '95 with Earoica, first set of remixes came in '96 and more almost every year.. Lost In Love was released in '95 as well with Baby Doc, Sysex Style, Spinclub, Meteor 7 & Space Club Mixes.

Subliminal Cuts - Le Voie Le Soleil is from '94 and got more mixes in '96. And actually some early releases of Orange Theme came out already in '93 but the official release was still in '94.
