The 90s were a vibrant time for dance music, especially House. Early in the decade, genres like Freestyle, Breakbeat, Trip Hop, Hip Hop, and Eurodance were offshoots that spun into their own categories, but it’s the latter half of the nineties that witnessed a dramatic shift in the 90s House Music landscape.

Classic House continued to pulsate on dance floors, yet there was a thirst for innovation. The sound progressively transformed, integrating electronic and tribal beats, igniting a new club culture. Renowned names like Club 69 (Peter Rauhofer), Thunderpuss, Victor Calderone, Tony Moran, Hex Hector, Jonathan Peters, Soul Solution, and more began to define this era. Junior Vasquez’s seamless transition between commercial House and big tribal beats became an emblematic representation of the time.

An example of this transition was the Soul Solution and Hex Hector remix of Toni Braxton’s “Un-Break My Heart.” This mix shook the dance floor, making record labels turn heads, even though the exceptional Frankie Knuckles version was featured in volume one of this series.

This new breed of 90s Dance Floor Hits began to take over this four-volume collection, reaching a peak in 1998-1999. The period also birthed a tougher house sound through Full Intention, StoneBridge, Love To Infinity, and the signature garage house style of Armand Van Helden.

Trance, an underground phenomenon bubbling in the UK during the early nineties, made its way to the US, turning many house DJs like Rollo & Sister Bliss, Perfecto, Sash!, and BT into Trance legends.

Volume two invites you to explore this fascinating evolution. It includes the Franktified Club Mix of Chaka Khan’s “Never Miss The Water,” the StoneBridge Mix of Hannah Jones’s “No One Can Love You More Than Me,” the Deep Zone Club Mix of “Remember Me” by The Blue Boy, and more.

The Love To Infinity’s Extended Club Mix of Diana King’s “I Say A Little Prayer,” Pulse’s “The Lover That You Are” with Hex Hector & Soul Solution Club Mix, Grace’s “Not Over Yet” with Perfecto Mix, and Ace Of Base’s “Beautiful Life” with Vission & Lorimer Club Mix showcase the diverse sounds that shaped this era.

For now, immerse yourself in this rich slice of 90s House Music history. Turn up the volume and feel the beats. Look out for volume three this weekend and the final fourth volume next week. Until the next time…ENJOY!

The late 90s heralded an era in House music filled with innovation, rhythm, and unforgettable melodies. The Ultimate 90’s House Classics [1996 – 1997] Volume 1 is a treasure trove of tracks that perfectly encapsulate a time when dance floors were alive with energy, creativity, and boundless passion.

These are not just songs but anthems that defined a generation. Starting with the soulful resonance of Lisa Stansfield’s “Never, Never Gonna Give You Up” in Mark!’s Transparent Vocal mix, this collection introduces listeners to a magical time in 90s House Music. The Classic Paradise Mix of Pet Shop Boys’ “Before” resonates with pure nostalgia.

Volume 1 navigates the world of beats and rhythms with Daft Punk’s iconic “Around The World” in the Kenlou Mix, a track that has become synonymous with innovative electronica. Todd Terry, along with Martha Wash & Jocelyn Brown, adds flavor to the set with “Something Going On”, a track that instantly takes you back to the heart of the dance floor.

Happy Clappers’ optimistic “I Believe” and Duke’s enamoring “So In Love With You” with Full Intention Mix are juxtaposed brilliantly. They create an atmosphere that’s both uplifting and reminiscent of love-filled nights under the glittering disco ball.

David Morales and The Bad Yard Club take us on a rhythmic journey with “In De Ghetto,” featuring Crystal Waters & Delta. The collection further explores club anthems with the KLM Vocal Mix of Phunky Phantom’s “Get Up Stand Up” and Junior Vasquez’ Arena Anthem Mix of Livin’ Joy’s “Don’t Stop Movin’.”

90s Dance Floor Hits wouldn’t be complete without the soul-stirring voices of Kristine W with “One More Try”, Jennifer Holliday’s powerful “No Frills Love” in Tony Moran’s Anthem Mix, and Byron Stingily’s “Get Up (Everybody)” in Mousse T.’s Extended Mix.

The tender “How Do I Live” by Leann Rimes in Mr. Mig Remix Club Mix and Amber’s “One More Night” in the Hani Remix are a perfect segue to the end of this illustrious collection, crowned with Alison Limerick’s legendary “Where Love Lives ’96” in Dancing Divaz Club Mix.

This collection is more than a walk down memory lane; it’s a celebration of an era where the essence of House music was shaped and honed. It’s a tribute to the DJs, the artists, and the remixers who gave us these timeless classics.
