I'm always amazed when I come across a track that's so old in the overall scheme of EDM yet still sounds brand new

Faze Action - In The Trees (Original 1996 remix)

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF255430-01-02-01.mp3

House, progressive...whatever you want to call it. Amazing piece of music. What it really comes down to is using organic, human sounding elements. The more EFX that are used to create the elements of a track, the more likely it is for those EFX to become cliched and abandoned over time. This track is as straight up as it gets. Strings, bongos, and somewhat live sounding drums.

go listen to 'Jondi & Spesh - Miles Of Boom' (1996) stills sounds fantastic and fresh.

Great Track. Tiger Stripes and Jerome Sydenham remixed it last year. Carl Craig has also remixed it.

Someone should make an official great tracks that have aged well thread.

quality record
prefer the c2 mix though, it's fucking evil

Although "aged well" is very subjective estimation, I'd say there are lot of tracks from the 90's that have aged very well (some of them are even older than In The Trees). The real quest would be to find some pre-90's tracks that have aged well.

C2 = C*2 = C + C
