I always found the contrast between Torsten's matter of fact-quips on the mic and 20 000 germans bellowing along to Mr. Vain to be very amusing.

The first half, while very entertaining, has some rather dodgy euro dancey/ravey tunes that are a bit hard to swallow for me. The trancers in the second half more than make up for it, though.

I have some more of these old HR3-sets that I really should upload at some point. They are simply le oonze oonze tecknoseckz of the highest quality, especially the ones from Sven.

I've found that a lot of those old HR3-sets are very hard to come by.

I wish I could, during the day it's on at work, but at home in the evening it's all off, so I flip a coin. It said "serious" this time.

Just listened the updated set.
The Meltdown really is much faster then I remembered. Still a nice set though.

20Hz and Give It Up always were fantastic, heard them for years in Belgium clubs. They create atmosphere as we can hear.

What do they yell during CYB? Ausziehen? (take off?) Some dancers around?

DJ 70 - Fanatic Trance (1st Mix) heard before, but never knew the name. Nice Age of Love / Cappella combination I guess.

Allthough the mixing is bad, the set of Thorsten is amazing. Surprising to see the mostly German, Belgium, Dutch sound of that time combined in one set jumping for one to the other and back. It shows that the choice of tracks is more important than the mixing or nice built up. Really a pity he died that early, I was a big Culture Beat fan.
I wonder if he also would have liked the DJ Taucher remix of Pay No Mind as much as I do. (click here to listen if you like)

Thanks a lot Montana, I enjoyed it

Indeed it was much faster then I remembered, just checked it at youtube. I think need to check my old xxl2 cd. Think the live sound also fooled me. Thanks for correcting me, fixed it.
