Classic Circuit Anthems: Filthy Gorgeous
Filthy Gorgeous brings the drama back to the dance floor. This entry in our Classic Circuit Anthems series is as bold as the guy on the cover, with big beats, commanding vocals, and remixes built for a packed room.
Annie Lennox and Christina Aguilera supply some of the set’s vocal firepower. Inaya Day also brings her energy to a rework of Vanity 6’s “Nasty Girl.” These are the kinds of performances that can hold their own against a massive circuit production.
Big Room Drama
Pete Rauhofer helped define the sound of this era, and his work has a place in this collection. I still miss him. His productions understood how to build tension and give a vocal its moment before bringing the beat back in.
To close the set, Hex Hector takes us out with his larger-than-life remix of Jennifer Lopez’s “Waiting for Tonight”. It’s a fitting finish for a mix that celebrates everything extravagant about classic circuit anthems.
Finding the Right Flow
I put together the later sets in this series first. While revisiting them, I shortened a few tracks where the extended passages slowed the momentum. Others needed no changes at all. You’ll hear both approaches in Filthy Gorgeous: the full sweep of those original remixes, with an occasional edit to keep the set moving.
Next up is the finale, Strict Machine. For now, turn up Filthy Gorgeous and enjoy the vocals, the drama, and those glorious big beats.
Until the next time…ENJOY!
