10. David Morales – Needin’ U
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSwda46cNMg
Legendary House classic and Ibiza anthem. The summer feel is real in this one! The classic House chords are heard in different versions of this song that are still played today, 20 years after the original was released.
9. Underworld – Two Months Off
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyKeE3fBEsM
A 9 minute journey that always makes you feel good. Listening to this one feels like actually having two months off.
8. Inner City – Pennies From Heaven (Kevin’s Tunnel Mix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBwRnihi3A8
Pure classic House bliss. When the track reaches the breakdown it’s almost impossible not to get shivers down your spine from the piano chords. A track that’s very close to the essence of House music, both musically and in terms of it’s meaning.
7. Junior Jack – My Feeling
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWudSNn13v0
To me this is one of the most feel-good tracks of all time. An originally slow disco track that was turned into House magic by Junior Jack’s amazing touch.
6. Roger Sanchez – Another Chance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdlvPe959Ck
A beautiful crossover classic from Roger Sanchez. One of those few dance tracks that is able to convey unusual amounts of depth and feeling.
5. Moby – Go (Woodtick Mix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZA6SP2ddYEs
Deep, mystical and fascinating – a masterpiece by Moby. A track that removes the borders between art and dance music.
4. Ultra Nate – Free (Mood II Swing Vocal Mix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxj2Hk9toG4
A huge classic that is one of a kind when it comes to creating emotion while still being a club banger. Everything from the arrangement to the lyrics and vocals are outstanding in this one.
3. Olive – You’re Not Alone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4oZdUV-G-Y
A very different and unique track. Amazingly reached the mainstream charts back when it was released, introducing a lot of people to the deeper and more emotive sides of electronic music.
2. Underworld – Born Slippy (Nuxx)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_VbqvWRCkI
Still heard in different variations to this day, especially in the underground scene. Almost always creates a magic and memorable moment whenever it’s played deep into a set.
1. Modjo – Lady (Hear Me Tonight)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMfxI3r_LyA
By far my favourite track of all time! A true Dance classic that together with its iconic music video opened up a lot of people’s eyes to House music for the first time, myself included.
