***THANK YOU FRANKIE, YOU CREATED A WAY OF LIFE FOR ALL OF US. YOU WILL LIVE ON FOREVER***

About the CD:
An absolutely epic house CD released in 1996 by the fine folks at MOS. This one was actually a swap with a certain ginger friend for something else (hope he doesn't ask for it back) although it was swapped for something good so maybe it's not a bad thing. This Frankie Knuckles mix features some incredible tracks including all time favourites Ken Lou - The Bounce, Lil Mo Yin Yang - Reach, X Press 2 - The Sound and many many more. It is indeed, a banger.

Since the early 90's, I'd say there are a handful of house music record labels that managed to define a sound and stay ahead of the crowd... and Junior Boys Own is definitely one of them. Formed by Terry Farley & Steve Hall in 1992, the West London label was part of the 'Boys Own Collective' back then, a group of friends who DJ'd, promoted, produced records and ran a fanzine. The collective included Terry Farley, Pete Heller, Andrew Weatherall, and Tom & Ed (The Chemical Brothers) amongst others. The label released dozens of house classics in the 90's from artists including Fire Island, The Black Science Orchestra, Roach Motel, X-Press 2, and Outrage - all of whom feature on this mix. In my humble opinion, JBO was and always will be a true house music hero.

As always, this was mixed live on two Technics 1210's and an Allen & Heath Xone 22 mixer. No cheating with technology. 

If you love house like I do, please feel free to share and enjoy amongst friends...

Much love, 12 IL xxxx

To celebrate our 30th episode, we are very honoured to get a recommendation from a Dj that’s played a huge part in the house music scene for over 20 years and someone who’s had a massive influence on myself, house heads around the world, and the CD’s that we feature on this site

After a famous trip to ibiza in the late 80’s… Danny set up his legendary Shoom night in London, which kicked off the rave and acid house scene in the UK. He’s helped cement house music culture in Ibiza, being a key figure in it’s growth on the island. But many know Danny through his radio shows… where he started out at Kiss FM and went onto lead radio one's weekend roster alongside Pete Tong. His Love Groove Dance Party show was the soundtrack to many people's saturday nights and I speak on behalf of thousands, to say it was an pleasure and an education to tune in each and every weekend.

He's had countless mix cd's over the years, some of which we've already featured on the site. But today, he's recommended the Decade of Dance CD, mixed by himself and released on Circa records in 1999. As it represents his favourite tracks throughout the 90's and is full of the gorgeous vocals and feel good house music Danny is know for.

So thanks again for everything Mr. Rampling. We really can't thank you enough for giving us all the amazing music and memories over the years.

Turn it up… and enjoy the mix

Decade Of Dance

030 - Danny Rampling - Decade Of Dance - Disc 1 (1999)

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

Also, we try to help you find and buy them again by sharing Discogs links on all featured CDs and or direct links to labels where possible.

* We fully support labels and artists. If any disc creates a copyrighting issue let me know and it will be immediately removed.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day.
