I'm very interested in hearing some great music that inspires you, new works that have something about them that helps push the scene forward. And don't forget to say what it is about about rather than bang a list down no-one cares about.
Estiva - Les Fleurs
This a slow stripped back track with a great melody to focus on that leads it through with minimal studio trickery to hold your interest.
Arctic Quest - Love is a Bird
A tech/prog builder with a lovely soft drum pounding, great atmospheric riff and a nice twist to drop in.
Lavkastor - Ssab
Big 'old skool' melody in another builder, arranged in the standard build / drop format but somehow sounds very different and non-predictable. Combined styles.
Tyler Michaud - Numb Crimson Dream
Awesome club banger, great sounds and crazy arrangement. Drop this tech trancer while playing out to switch the style "up-side-tha-headz" (c) |

Sasha & BT - Heart of Imagination
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7znNAvPvBY
Two of the greats putting together an amazing track. The musicianship on this work are still largely unrivaled today. This is one of those tracks you listen to and just go "they don't make 'em like that anymore".
Sunday Club - Eterna's Flight
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AaIUs3ry0Eg
This track has an amazing arrangement. I used to call this "advanced techno" back in the day, because none of my other tracks had such an amazing arrangement and use of melody.
BT - Embracing the Sunshine (enbracing the future mix)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2T8AjRixDU
Another amazing arrangement from BT. Obviously this type of stuff almost never gets made nowadays.
Wild Colour - Dreams (bt circadian dreams mix)
This track had some of the most amazing piano work I have ever heard in a dance track, along with the absolutely classic vocal.
First track on my Perfecto Mix (Youtube wont let me post it).

I'll have more later once I think about it some more. |

As of ten minutes ago:
Babicz: Purple Dance
Blow Dark Flower, this is Babicz at his best. Incredibly well produced, its got a great intimate feeling but still manages to be incredibly epic. But it doesn't draw attention to itself, it just grooves along entrancing people. Suits house parties at 7 am or dancefloors at 10 PM or 2 AM. One of my favourite tracks last year.
Nacho Marco: Wench (francois dubois remix)
Really tightly produced track. Its very minimal with no unnecessary elements at all. Its a great filler track which gets under your skin and becomes something so much more.
Underworld: Long Dark Train
Old but still sounds like it was made yesterday. It always makes me dance around the place and is still really well engineered. Really well paced, the arrangement carries you along throughout the whole 10 minutes.
Chicane: The whole of Behind the Sun
This album can be listened to at any point of your life, no matter how you feel at the time or what you're doing. On the beach, in a club, having sex, breaking up, dancing, sleeping, anything.
joris Voorn: Blank
One of the tracks that significantly changed the musical direction I was heading in. It proved (in the context of a DJ mix) that you can make tech house emotive and uplifting. It doesn't all have to be relentless dancefloor smashing stuff. Really brought the techier sounds and the trancier sounds back together the way they should be IMO. |

Same goes for the first album "Far From The Maddening Crowds". I'm a big fan of Chicane :). |

I cannot believe this track is actually 15 years old, it sounds great. |
