Lonnie Gordon - Do You Want It (1994)


Lonnie Gordon is one of those artists that still staying in the dance music department, in her long career she tried and experiment to use her voice in a lot of different ways and directions, from more commercial to more subtly elaborate styles. This is one of the most elegant things she did, in my eyes, taken from the "Bad Mood" album, is remixed by one of my favourite Mixmasters, Dave Morales, it start with a simple arrangement with beats and piano and just later it evolves in a more reworked track.

Geoffrey Williams - There's a Need In Me (1988)


That's a great passionate electronic garage track, Geoffrey Williams voice is fab, not sure why he didnt have the success he deserved it and the arrangement is up to a great standard, a classic eighities song. The remix is by Merlin Bobb, name already seen in tracks by Total Contrast and Levert.

The Reese Project - Direct Me (1991)


This is seriously historical, in my opinion one of the most beautiful garage tracks ever written, it comes from the Detroit originated The Reese Project one of the many aliases for Kevin Saunderson of Inner City fame and remixed by the Disco-Man itself Joey Negro, not much else to say really, just listen to it and be astonished by its beauty, one of those tracks to make listen to anyone that classify Dance music as a "Cheap Affair" to make them realize how wrong they are!!

Charlotte - Sugar Tree (1991)


We always loved this little known track, is by a singer called Charlotte that in more recent times reached a certain poularity with tracks like "Skin", but this is much earlier, British produced by Andy Morris (Blue Zone and more recently Narcotic Thrust) and Ian Devaney, the man behind most Lisa Stanfield tunes. Originally recorded as a slow downtempo song, it gets completely re-arranged and remixed by the legendary Roger S that thru one of this piano riffs that catches ya and don't let you go, brought it to different garage dimensions.
