14: These two swedish guys are highly praised for their tech house production nowadays but a couple of years ago they did some banging prog house as well such as this track.

24: This turkish trance producer from germany had some huge commercial trance hits in Europa 10 years ago and the track name also relates to the etnicity of the producer.

:stongue: I recognized a grand total of 4 tracks here. I don't know who these producers are, I suppose ... I swear I thought there was at least 3 ID's by the same artist here. :conf:

On a positive side, there's one ID I am looking forward to finding out the name of when this is done and over with.

Sorry to be so dull, I was expecting something else.

Haven't been round here in forever but I thought I'd give this contest a shot for old times sake. Having fun with it but I've lost my touch somewhat.

Ok apearanly this competition was more challenging than I thought.
But I thought that the people at TA usually are really good at id:ing tracks hence why I made it a bit more challenging. :toothless

Not many dared to take on the challenge. But the four brave where (in order of points):

Congrats to starglider who ended up on 48 points. The rest didn't even get half that much :whip:
No cookies for you Jamey! :tongue2

The tracks:

01: Leftfield . Bambaataaa - Afrika Shox. (2 Ids)
Leftfield teams up with Afrika Baambaataa for this great breaks tune. The video is directed by Chris Cunningham and is pure brilliant.

02: Cool James & Black Teacher - The Rhythm of The Tribe
The same duo that did Dr Feelgood. One of my favourite eurodance tunes.

03: SFX - We Are Controlling Transmission (starglider unique!)
Before Astral Projection became Astral Projection they were SFX and released some really nice early trance records. This one can be
found on their "Unreleased Tracks 89-94"-album.

04: Deepsky - Departure
Departure was on Deepsky's very first EP released back in 1996.

05: Ivan - Iron Curtain
Heavy tune produced by the tech maestro Oliver Lieb.

06: Brazen - Toto
When old pop/rock tracks are transformed into dancefloor versions they usually end up being crap. This one is an exception.
A great funky remake of Toto's old hit.

07: Dr Kucho! - Hallelujah
Very anthemic proghouse from Spain.

08: Dawnseekers - Protuberance (starglider unique!)
ITWT released some amazing uplifting trance ten years ago. Protuberance is one of their best.

This is for sure one of the best tracks ever released on Bonzai.

10: Lexicon Avenue - Why R U Here (House Heads Remix)
Banging proghouse track often played by Anthony Pappa.

11: SFB & Slide - Kill Bill
Lovely breaks tune that samples Ennio Morricone - Il Tramonto from Kill Bill vol. 2 Soundtrack

12: Utah Saints - Star (Union Jack remix)
Amazing mid 90s trancer that never got a proper release. A BIG shame.

13: 808 State & UB40 - One In Ten (starglider unique!)
808 State's nice remake of this old UB40 track.

14: Minilogue - In A Deeper Motion (Original mix)
Before Minilogue did minimal they made banging proghouse. This one released on Baroque.

One of Astral Projections best ever, taken from the album "Dancing Galaxy".

20: Karsh Kale - Distance (Banco De Gaia remix)
Very ethno influenced track released on the famous world music label Six Degrees Records.
Banco De Gaia delivers a very uplifting remix.

21: Union Jack - Lollipop Man
Union Jack sure knows how to make hypnotic trance. They know it today with Papillion and they knew it back in
1995 with Lollipop Man.

22: Infected Mushroom - Anyone Here But Me
I'm no big fan of this israeli group. But this one is banging.

23: Breeder - New York FM (Van Bellen Remix) (2 ids)
Awesome thick prog trancer.

24: DJ Sakin & Friends - Turkish Memories (starglider unique)
It's a shame that this tune was only released on the Walk On Fire album. The lush chantings could be used
elsewhere for a great effect.

25: Nostrum - Brilliant (Hard trance mix)
German hard trance king Nostrum have always been a favourite of mine.

26: Way Out West - Don't Forget Me (Hiroshi Watanabe remix)
By far the best version of Don't Forget Me.

This duo is a fairly new greek prog duo with releases on Iboga and Spiral Trax.

Dreadzone have been producing for ages. This british group release some wicked stuff ranging from dub to house,
breaks and world music.

29: Röyksopp - So Easy (2 ids)
This tune is special to me. We used it as background music in our drama play at the uni while we were wandering around with white masks. Got a great effect and everyone was asking us for the name of the song.

30: OXL - Listening Comprehension Test
Before Axwell started producing house for the masses he released underground hardtrance in the mid 90s. This one is off Tranquility
EP released in 1995.

31: Man With No Name - Azymuth (starglider unique)
Amazing tune from Man With No Name's awesome debute album Moment Of Truth. By far one of my favourite trance CDs ever.

32: T.B.R. - Trancewave (Club mix)
Drizzly released some nice uplifting trance in the eld of 90s. Trancewave is one of their best.

33: Anne Clark - Wallies (Night Of The Hunter) (Juno Reactor Remix)
Juno Reactor's take on this 80s tune from Anne Clark.

34: Etnica - Fade
Great cover of Visage - Fade To Gray. Released on Etnica's Sharp album (2004).

35: Chi-A.D. - Pathfinder
If you are into goa trance chances are big that you've heard this one. Entrancing and very uplifting tune.

I think Jay Jay did a great cover of Dee D. Jackson's disco hit from 1978.

37: Electric Universe - Solar Energy (staglider unique)
This trancer was on Electric Universe's first EP released in 1994. Great stuff.

38: Miranda - Keep Calm 2004

39: Jalal Chckara Orchestra - Tema (Youth Remix)
Very soothing remix by Youth taken from his Calibrate Your Intuition album.

40: Shiva Shidapu - Power of Celtics (Quethas unique!)
A classic in israeli trance.

One of my favourite tracks from Bonzai. Surprised no one got this.

42: Andromeda - Oxygen
Awesome remake of Jarre's Oxygen 4.

43: Vibrasphere - Seven days to daylight (Unai remix)
Vibrasphere's Archipelago album was one of the best trance albums in years. The remix album also maintains a high quality.

44: KVK feat. Stephen Breazeale - Training Wheels
Source of Gravity is a highly underrated prog/breaks label. This tune is an example of it.

45: The Muses Rapt - Enchanted Forest
This guy is mostly famous for the track Spiritual Healing. On his debute album you'll find this track. A haunting and hypnotic experience.

46: Moby - First Cool Hive
One of Moby's finest moments.

47: Mauro Picotto - Goodbye (Unique2701 unique!)
It's amazing how this guy can do eurodance, techno, trance, downtempo with such ease.

48: Shakta - Ion Tribe
Taken from Shakta's Silicon Trip album. IMO one of the best within goa trance. Ever.

Played by Warren a couple of years ago. Awesome remix by Chus & Cabellos. The intro of this song is wicked. Check it out.

50: Talamasca - The Hunted Becomes The Hunter
Talamasca is huge within psy trance circles. This is one of my favourites from him.

51: Cave - Temporal
It's really interesting how a guy from cold Norway can do such tropical music. A tribalistic trip from Cave!

52: Xenomorph - Gnomes
This german is probably most famous for his dark and evil sound. Gnomes is a wicked journey from beginning to end. Freaks your mind.

53: Soulvation - Summer In The City (No Control Mix)
Lovely deep prog trancer from a couple of years ago. Misja Helsloot opened his first Capital cd with this track.

54: Innertales - Odyssee
This track is from 1994. Yeah I know. It's amazing. Produced by Philippe van Mullem (Qudran).

55: Purple - Twisted
Synergetic Records is IMO a real underrated label. They discovered Oliver Prime and haven released lots of other good prog trance.

56: Tilt - Sirens (Tilt Four Motion mix) (starglider unique!)
After John Graham left Tilt many thought they would go crap. I think they did really well. Sirens is a proof of that.

57: Dr Kucho! - Forbidden Planet
This guy sure knows how to create soothing string melodies.

58: Salt Tank - Jeanie (Unique2701 unique!)
Very Solar Stone:ish track by Salt Tank. From their White Island EP.

Very underrated vocal trancer produced by Chris Jennings (from Hemstock & Jennings).

Alco Laamers and Geert Huinink had some wicked releases on ITWT in 99/00.

Classic trancer from 1994 from Miro.

64: Mike Koglin - Fortuna 2000 (Original Club mix)
This onesided record is made for one airplay use only especially for the Millennium shift. Notes on record says:
"DO NOT PLAY Until 31.12.99 at exactly 11:55pm at pitch zero"

65: Amethyst - Kratakoa
Mostly famous for their track Futura. Released some great prog in the mid-end of 90s.

67: Earthbound - Living Just For Today (Extended version)
This swedish duo released some awesome stuff in the mid 90. Then they just quit :/

69: L.S.G. - I'm Not Existing (Thomas Krome remix)
Wicked remix by Thomas Krome.

70: Space Penguins - The Electrofunk (Atlantis mix) (2 ids)
Probably the best dance oriented version of Gershon Kingsleys popcorn. check out the video!
Quethas
I missed couple ones as expected :D But seems that my effort wasn't for nothing since I was second which is my best result so far

I bet many missed the deadline with this one. At least I wasn't expecting that this would end already. But then again good that I made my effort when I did.

Not even for the effort? :whip:

On the serious note, I'm definately gonna check out some of these tunes, as I'm sure more people will :)
starglider
Sweet, I still know some trance! :p

Haven't done one of these contests since, what, ID 13? Looking forward to it, but I'm going to try to make it easier to get a few more people involved. Hamid's choice of tracks was great though... and I can't believe I couldn't guess The Love I Lost, either... had it running through my mind for a few days but couldn't place it. That's the beauty of these things I guess.
THE_Chris
I would have gotten one point :D

Some great tracks in here tho, gonna have to do a buying spree after this.
