and 'Ultraflava' - liked that one a lot
i've been thinking about loads of mid 90s happy handbag anthems again...
Nush 'U Girls'Nu-Birth 'Anytime'2 Men Will Move You 'The Goodbye Thing'Nightcrawlers 'Push The Feelin' On' (but everyone remembers this)Jinny 'Keep Warm'The Swimmer 'Let It Come'DSK 'What Would We Do' (they play it on 24HPP in the first Hacienda club scene)E-Motion 'Naughty North, Sexy South'Kadoc 'Night Train'Klubbheads 'Klubbhopping'DJ Supreme 'Wildstyle'Technocat ft Tom Wilson 'Technocat'
and more Westbam ('Alarm Clock', 'The Roof Is On Fire', 'Celebration Generation')
and Marusha ('Deep' and 'Unique' her best tunes i think, everything else probably TOO cheesy)

this thread reminds me... can anyone remember the producer of a track from the early 90s called "take it"? It consists of a sample of those words being sung plus a little sax loop. I heard it on bassquake (RIP) a few years ago... thnks!

Weirdly enough I was in my friend's car last night listening to the new Me First & The Gimme Gimmes album (which is great!) and, in my head, trying to come up the best early 90s rave tunes that were ripe for being covered in a skatepunk fashion such as this. Then I got drunk and forgot them all

Feels like nu-Balearic and wedding disco revivalism between them have turned a fair few of these into acknowledged classics now.
