One thing I was expecting in September 2000 was the return of Alisha's Attic, but that got delayed. Still plenty of other music to amuse myself with:
Robbie Rivera - Bang
As someone who was into the harder side of dance music I did used to turn my nose up somewhat to house music. At the same time a lot of house fans would write off the harder styles. One house music fan though said they grew to like some of the harder dance music after hearing it in my car a lot. By the same token I'd grown to like house records such as this.
Tru Faith & Dub Conspiracy - Freak Like Me
The original Adina Howard version of "Freak Like Me" passed me by at the time. This was therefore the first version of the record I was familiar with. It's a garage record that was on plenty of tapes at the time. This was before the god awful Sugababes version of the record came out.
Encore ft Eska & Stephen Emmanuel - Coochy Coo
It felt like all the summer anthems were coming in September in the year 2000. I guess it gave them the opportunity to gather momentum in Ibiza etc. before getting a release.
Sasha & Darren Emerson - Scorchio
Darren Emerson left Underworld in the year 2000 and then collaborated with Sasha on this record. Both were big names on the DJ circuit so I guess expectations were high. This record certainly delivered though.
Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400
One common theme with the records that featured earlier on in the year 2000 was that a lot of them were actually from 1999. Here's another one from 1999. I do very much associate this with the year 2000 though.
