Essential mix, Liverpool university set for '99 is one of my current favourites.
So nice. sends shivers straight down the spine, and that's only the first track. |

1999 = the year of Oakenfold. He did more than anyone else that year to bring trance into the mainstream of dance music.
The Essential Mix World Tour:
Sydney, Australia
Shanghai, China
Creamfields
Space, Ibiza
Gatecrasher, Lotherton Hall
Havana, Cuba
Liverpool University
Amazing , I still listen to 3-4 of those sets on a regular basis (Lotherton Hall and Creamfields are the best ones :D). |

haha you like that sample i sent you paul? i wasn't sure if you got that set yet so i thought i would convince you with that little taste :)
i saw him last year at qbh and i think it was a great set, i would have preferred him to play longer seeing as the other guy wasn't on but it was great fun!
i will still see him next time he comes :) |

Thats the Gatecrasher set, imo THE best 86 mins of driving euphoric trance in 1 single hit i have ever heard.
AND PETE TONG in the middle of it:
"I said nice one bruvva"
"I SAID NICE ONEEEEEEEEE"
hahah id give away a lot to be there that nite.
Like Matt_A said Oakie @ china was playing breaks, but was still able to capture this underlying beat, drivy beat throughout the whole set, that towards the end just explodes with skip raiders.
I have respect for Oakenfold, he moved on, he got the best he thought he could get out of the sound so he moved on. Sure he hasnt found the same success, but only time will tell, but i have a feeling a true artist like oakenfold will only be kept down for so long. |
FCKN OATH!!!!
that set got me into it all.... i love that set..
infact.. i may have to go home and pump the fuxx0r outta that set.
ITS GOLD!!
you've got me excited now
"i live... for you
i die for you..
do what, you want me too.
ITS NOT OVER, NOT OVER, NOT OVER YETTTTTT" |
