Something Wicked This Way Comes

Inaya Day, Leggz & Femi B - Take Me Up (Rulers of the Deep Remix)

This is a .rar file containing the Club, Leggz & Straightjacket Robinson, Jay Kay, & RULERS of the DEEP mixes. It is all about the super intense Rulers mix! Really a dub with some great vocal samples from Inaya. I have to say, it's really quite fantastic. I would call it dark thundering tech with a progressive edge and tribal essance.

The Leggz & Straightjacket Robinson has a more mainstream appeal, while the Jay Kay lends it'self to the proper house vein. The club is more in line with electro.

Work It

Hector Fonseca - Get On Top (DJ Paulo Mix)

A little more energy than the Original or Cajjmere Wray remixes. This is NY style progressive & tribal house. Solid nightlife textures.



Hector Fonseca - Get On Top (Original Mix)

It's tracks like this that drove me nuts when I first discovered nightlife. I was completely in awe. Hard Hitting Dark Tribal! Today I am completely in awe that anyone would go to a nightclub and relentlessly request the likes of Britney Spears, Cher, and Madonna when they could here stuff like this. If you want to hear crap just listen to Clear Channel.

Groove is Just a Feeling

Todd Terry Feat Terry McDonald - Play On (Tee & S EQ Mix)

It's Todd Terry do I need to provide you with a description? How bout this? This version is heavy on distortion, big chunky beats and short at 5:13. Now quit fooling around and check it out. The Thoneick mix is more teched out but worth grabbing too.

It's a Spiritual Thing

Roby Mannarini - I Got Love (Michele Lodia Mix)

Deep Gospel House! If you like it deep, if you like it spiritual, and you feel house then you need to grab this one CODE RED. Male vocals testify, while a female vocal sample adds sexy intrigue. Super trippy and excellent horn sample!

What is House

DJ Lapetina - Houselicious (Crazylicious Mix)

So when your talking Lapetina, you know you are talking serious tribal. This track is no exception. Tons of breaks are followed by bang'n drums and sassy percussion. What is house? This is house. Tribal House Baby. The very best kind!

Can You "Feel The Beat"?

Yinon Yahel - Dramatic Beatz (Original Mix)

If Offer Nissim had been the person who created Robbie Rivera's - Feel The Beat, this is what it would have sounded like. All the signature anthem sounds of Offer with a whole lot of borrowing from Feel The Beat. Dramatic fo sho.

Pride 95

Clubzound - Reach 2 Tribalism (Clubz's Mix)

So this is an interesting take on Lilmoyingyang's - Reach. It's almost unrecognizable but fans of the track will catch on. I first became familiar with Reach from the Pride 95 compilation disc released on Strictly Rhythm. Then there was that magical night in 2002 when Calderone started teasing it in his set and finally let us have it combined with another track that escapes me at the moment. Ah good times baby, good times.

I have recently come across several updates of the track. Most very similar to the original. This one gives us something different.

The Boom

D-Unity - Fuck The System (Original Mix)

I can only assume the title refers to the sound system after you play this track. Easy on the bass big boy! You don't wanna amp out and blow a speaker. Not for the faint of heart, this track delivers serious boom, no vocals, and a bit of a tech edge.

Thundering Beats

Deka Ft. Alan T - Miami (Original Mix)

In the typical Deka style. Pure tribe, nice breaks, strong energy, and then of course New York's Alan T. This track is for tribal fans, others will poo poo it for being "pots & pans" and not having a melody. But then what do the others really know anyway.

Can You Feel The Rhythm

Tribal Kings - To The Beat (Syke 'N' Sugarstarr Mix)

Some where between deep house & tribal lies this track. Tribal drum, funky horn or is it oboe stabs, and delicious vocals come together as one and deliver a very versatile track.

PEACE PEACE PEACE

Orienta-Rhythm & Michelle Weeks - Peace (Orienta-Rhythm Solid Mix)

It's been a while since I have heard this song come around. You know what they say absence makes the heart grow fonder. With Michelle Weeks powerful vocal delivery, this will be dance floor filler for sure. Check out the (Orienta-Rhythm Resound Mix) for more circuit flavored sound).
