The Record Box - What we're playing

Every month or so we will be taking you back through dance music history and presenting to you a classic tune from back in day for you to listen to in all its entirety.
It’s time to dig out your whistle and glo-sticks for some classic rave. With so many brilliant genre setting tracks from the 89-94 era it’s a hard choice to pick one that all encompasses the scene from that period. No doubt many more classics from the age of the air horn and boiler suit will be posted here over time, but to start us off here’s a tune that everyone seems to remember, but is rarely heard. With its sample from the film ‘The Running Man’ and a floaty vocal breakdown, Temple of Dreams by Messiah is a very much a cliché rave tune, but it is all the better for it. Put on your white gloves and cut some shapes. What’s yer name, where yer from…nice one, top one, sorted! LISTEN

Daniel Boast: Novembers Top Tune - Spacejunk - Lithium 2002 - White label
This tune is gonna be massive. Fatboy Slim first dropped this over the summer and has since become one of this years firm favourites on the dance floor. The track itself is quite simplistic, but it just drives and drives. The breakdown if you don't already know is a Nirvana sample and it is used to great effect. Still no official release date, but there are a few white labels knocking around.LISTEN
