Time to go back to October 1998, trance has a notable presence here:
Dee-Tah - Relax
When I first heard this I thought it was Sweetbox with their follow up to "Everything's Gonna Be Alright". It certainly has it's similarities, but it was Dee-Tah, a rapper from Chile.
It's quite uplifting in a way but has a certain darkness to it. Maybe that's just my own interpretation.
Nalin And Kane - Beachball
One of the big trance anthems that's been remixed a million times. As you may have already guessed Nalin & Kane hail from Germany. If you're into trance then it's almost inevitable that you will like this record, I've only ever heard this record get praised and rightfully so.
Sundance - Sundance '98
A remix for 1998 of "Sundance" which had been a Top 40 hit the previous year. It's a trance record but this time it's a British one rather than a German one. As far as trance hits went in 1998 this was about as good as it got, the stand out record on "Kiss Anthems 98".
Binary Finary - 1998
This record takes me back to Dave Pearce's Dance Anthems and the Mix Selector on Radio 1. It's a trance record that's been remixed loads of times, but when it gets remixed the titles changes to whatever year it was remixed in. This was the original version of the record though.
Afrika Bambaataa Vs Carpe Diem - Got To Get Up
I remember taping this from Dave Pearce's Dance Anthems although I questioned whether this would be considered a credible record amongst the house community. In hindsight who gives a flying fuck, it's a good record and another one that's on "Kiss Anthems 98".
