Electronic Music Memories from the Late 1990's

In the mid 1990's I fell in love with electronic music like trance, speed garage, and other music that has a good beat.

Rare Dance Music Tracks I only heard on the radio only once or twice.  I had these tracks on tape.  Some of the tapes have been eaten up by the cassette player.  This is a listing of my favorite tracks with a vocal Time Stretch effect.

Here are some tracks you may recognize or not

1994


The Way, Shadow VIP Mix, DJ Tatix, 1994

In December 1994 I was exposed to my first jungle / DNB track on Energy 108.  This track featured the scary vocal time stretch. When I heard the first time stretch, my stomach will cringe when I am not ready for it, especially while laying in bed.

1995

Higher State of Consciousness, Josh Wink, 1995.  This is the second track I heard that featured a deep male vocal time stretch.  I heard an acapella time stretch while I was in a dream state one night, it was very scary.  I did not know what it was.  A few weeks later, I was laying in bed, listening to the live to air from Amnesia Night Club on Hot 103.5 and heard that same time stretch and I had the unsettling feeling in my stomach.  I quickly shut the radio off and started sleeping without the radio in case I hear another scary time stretch.

1997/98

Rip Groove -- Double 99, 1997.  I taped this track from Hits 103.5 during a Live to Air broadcast in December 1997.

My Name is Barbarella-Caspar Pound & Peter Smith Remix, Barbarella, 1993.  I was very lucky to have the tape rolling on April 3, 1998 and catch this rare track.

Beautiful Day-Juniorverse Mix,  Hypertrophy 1998.  This track features a long time stretch at the top of the track.  This track only aired three times on Chris Sheppard's Pirate Radio on July 17th,  24, and 31, 1998.  I heard this track at cadet camp and I wanted to tape it.  When I got home from camp, The track was removed from the rotation

The Chant W E R -- R.I.P. Productions (1998) I taped this track off the Chris Sheppard Radio show in the spring of 1998.  This track sounds similar to Rip Groove.

I Can't Help Myself -- Lucid, 1997.  I taped this track off the Chris Sheppard Radio Show in the spring of 1998.  This is the only trance track I heard with a freaky vocal time stretch effect

Insomnia (Armand Van Helden's Mission To Mars Mix), 1997. I heard this version of Insomnia on the radio during the 9 o Clock Hard Drive mix back in the spring of 1997. 


Choose Life (JDS Vocal Remix), 1997 -- PF Project. I heard this song in December 1997 on hits 103.5 during a live to air at Paparazzi Nightclub.  The tape that had this song on it was eaten up by the tape player.

The Horns of Jericho (Porn Kings Full On Remix) - DJ Supreme, I taped this track off the Chris Sheppard Radio Show in the spring of 1998.

Inferno, Souvlaki-Xtra Large Remix, 1997 I was very lucky to record this track on April 3, 1998.

Kickin Hard -- Klubheads, 1998. I recorded this song on multiple tapes from the Chris Sheppard Radio Show in the fall of 1998.  I heard this song for the first time at in the summer of 1998 at ACSTC Blackdown.

Meet Her At The Love Parade (Dextrous Mix) (1997) -- Da Hool. I have multiple copies of this track.  This track was taped from the Chris sheppard Pirate Radio Show in the spring of 1998.


Raise Your Hands Up in the Air (Klubheads Old School Remix) -- DJ Mark Van Dale Vs Klubheads, 1998. I recorded this song off the Chris Sheppard Radio Show in the fall of 1998.

Sugar Daddy-Secret Knowledge, 1993

Sugar is Sweeter (Armand's Drum and Bass Mix) -- CJ Bolland, 1996.  This track was recorded off the Chris Shepard Radio Show in 1998.

Something is Going On (Loop Da Loop Uptown Mix) -- Todd Terry, 1997.  I taped this track off the Live to Air on Hits 103.5 or the Chris Sheppard Radio Show in the winter or spring of 1998. Also listen to the Loop Da Loop Downtown Mix.

You're A Superstar - The Dogwhistle Soundsystem,remix, 1998 -- Love Inc.  This track was taped off the Chris Shepard Pirate Radio show on Hits 103.5 FM in the spring of 1998.
