Bassheads - Is There Anybody Out There?

[@Smiffster2006]

A true dance classic. Anyone who was into the dance scene in the early 90s will remember this tune being massively popular. Still sounds great today. RAVE ON!

[@djtezd]

One of he best tunes of all time. I have an original white label promo of this framed. First heard it at Zone Blackpool back in the day & the rushes nearly blew my head off. I remember when this came on in Angels in Burnley as well & the whole club just went mental, it was raining sweat from the ceiling. I miss those days & I just think that the youth of today will never experience what we did in the late 80's to mid 90's. 91-95 was the best for me!

[@thedeadparrotsketch]

OMG....Not heard this for fucking years... Been there, danced, tripped and hallucinated my way through much of the nineties listening to this sort of music!

[@dazbennett3]

I'm soooo blessed to have been 16 years old when hearing this tuney tune tune!!!!!! 20 years old and pisses all over todays music full stop .

[@Arclight74]

Class. Beautiful tune. I was 16 at the time and this tune blew the world open for me ... Daz Bennett3 is spot on - 20 years old and pisses over the crappy chart dance of today.

[@carllucey9130]

My neighbours have been listening to this all night....they've got no fucking choice.

[@Chaswhiskey]

Alas the days have gone. We were al happy that we could all understand and become part of the sound. You could feel your soul almost lift and the rush was immense.... But we were sociable people then - now there are scared and confused children who have no idea of the worth of life or respect.....

[@ThaDarkStranger]

The full mix, with the Pink Floyd sample... wouldn't have it any other way. A work of genius. One of my faves, no doubt. ;-)

[@davidmccullough2930]

Have to agreed to alot of what your saying i am 38 and grow up in this scene and loved it . It was our time and we used to roll are eyes when people talked about how great the 60's music was.It was our back lashe against being feed american music on mtv and pete waterman's kylie and jason rubbish.Every generation will find their own music and scene what ever that may be and just enjoy it.

[@djraymac1]

Disco biscuit days this tune brings back good memories wish I was twenty again ....

[@1979dantheman]

awsome song not heard it for while,tive got goose bumps all over my neck and arms.CLASIC!

[@HertsHoopsDotOrg]

You very nearly brought tears to my eyes there. Full Circle at Colnbrook c. 1991-93. About as good as it got for me. Lying in the garden watching the underside of low-flying planes and then trotting in for the weekend's last big dance up. Brilliant.

[@ambientdweller]

We were there..that's all that matters...:)

[@BHALT0S]

I was 16 when this came out, and one of my all time faves.

[@DF118118]

The Osmonds, Talking Heads, Pink Floyd and Afrika Bambaata, who'd have thought that would work?

[@colsmooth]

[@dylansheppard8217]

[@furtwangle]

rave on forever, sun endlessly rising out of the morning mist behind the DJ.

[@SuchAPrettyMess]

Such a killer bassline, my favorite part (too) is always the progression at the beginning.

[@Waxxaful]

Got played at Sankeys Closing Party on Monday! Such energy in the room.. set the tone for the whole party... What a track!!

[@MrAdeyb]

[@damianprince1974]

[@senzil]

[@TheGreeny38]

i remember this as a time when i found true peace and happiness where people didn't have to wear the right clothes etc. Then it became a trend which messed the whole thing up. Cant take those the days away from us though. yyyyyeeeeeeeess.

[@MancTommo]

[@alternativeanswer]

@TheStarsmoker It was the days of awakening, i didn't realise back then but it started on a spitiual journey that has not stopped, a journey back to unconditional love.

[@Synthematix]

The question is, is there anybody out there?

[@Foxual1]

@dazbennett3 I was 18. We were lucky to have been born when we were. We were part of something never to be repeated. Good work fella!!

[@gdub12345]

Nothing like a nice extended breakdown. Top tune.

[@Garciamrcool]

Feel sorry for the kids today. All they get is Simon Cowell. Tragic. And what's with all the aggression.

[@MrRoadhouse1974]

brings back happy memerys of gettin stoned in college back in 91

[@jsjoes]

When my ex wife was in labour and under the influence of gas and air she thought i rapped this song to her while she was pushing... LMAO

[@Marjopolo302]

Love the Talking Heads BIT!

[@paulm2322]

Shea Nearys ring walk song followed by the irish rover! I love Floyd & this is a top tune too.

[@StepAheadSecurityie]

great tune brings me back it wasn't played that much but what a break cheers friend

[@Tijdelijk13]

Do i hear samples of Once in a lifetime by Talking Heads? I love this

[@smokin1974]

like all quality tunes should be - a full journey from start to end - sometimes i feel its a shame to mix it as it stands out on its own - happy memories every time i hear this tune. an old cliche - but the really dont make tunes like this anymore!!!!!!! thankx for posting the full version - my vinyl is waay too crackly now!!!!

[@AnthonyRosbottom]

Ah! choon! I still have this on original CD single. I get it out every year or so and put it on LOUD!!!!! I don't know any other tune that starts the drum loop halfway through a bassline riff and gets away with it.

[@Cakeries]

ha just to go back in time and go to 90s rave party would be so fun

[@mickenoss]

Sweet upload, I haven't heard this in years =D

[@andy6478]

If you're mid 30's to ... who gives a sh1t? Who cares where the samples are from? Did you enjoy this as a whipper snapper? Are you enjoying it now? Good for you either way

[@sim0nge]

true perhaps for many but not for all: some many friends of mine, reminiscing about good old times, go out and create new dj set ispired by those great song!

[@PENTHOUSEFAMILY]

was going to write a similar comment but you summed it up perfectly. my salutations sir

[@DF118118]

whoever thought that a record that sampled the osmonds and talking heads would be so fucking awesome?

[@MrChrisayre]

i recall the ulster hall in belfast when this went down, people were so so about it, then moby came out from behind the decks and rapped to go... true billl

[@MrGooner61]

I remember them doing a live set at sterns 1991/2. Sounds dated now but back then it was trippy as fuck.

[@sebhma]

well, i agree and disagree. mainstream music has gone more banale, but there's is plenty of amazing stuff out there. it's just about finding it.

[@ivormoorcock1032]

Just discovered the beginning of crazy horses from the fkn osmonds has been used on this classic. Weird eh !!!

[@TheDannyClockwork]

@cuddlyclown we where younger like elastic, we became work and frayed.

[@taffthesheep]

All time classic

[@roboman34]

@dazbennett3 ...same here i'm 40 years old ......and yep ...its still brilliant .

[@andywallis1550]

Remember having white label if this, first time heard it with laser show. AWESOME (bring vavk Hit Man and Her)

[@BHASKAR422]

I'm not too old. Exactly what is the age you are supposed to stop liking dancing? Ever been to an indian wedding? There are 65 year old people on those dancefloors, I for one will be reaching for the sky till i die

[@ChannelDead]

today you have psytrance...it moved from the clubs and cities out in the nature...great, positive vibe...it's different but i think just as good.

[@MrJowan01]

Luna , Amsterdam , first xtc pill! dancing with a nice sexy lady! best time ever!

[@occupier1]

I think sorta every dog has its day I was there in the rave days I must admit though wasn't cool getting hit by the sweat from the cielings sometimes especialy the wearhouse ones half a pint sometimes hehe

[@NMWMN]

Sydney, Australia 1991

[@simonhorridge]

If you were listening to the radio in the early nineties, I'm sure you would have said the same thing. There's plenty of brilliant stuff being made now. Yeah, it;s not rave but still.

[@colinmcdowall6898]

one of the best

[@madman1699]

@MrSKINFLICK Just listen to Torsten Fenslau's "Die schwarze Zone"...it's the same synth. Greetz

[@M7757s]

What's this for a ceremony, hanging around? We got to get down, rock it off on this shaky ground Come on and spit it out your hearty-party moon everywhere Let's see you people laugh at people punchin' out in the air

[@ROYSKIJG]

What a Beauty . Everything and the kitchen sink. Still has the power to rock a club. Lovely 303 action and afika to boot. WHAT A BELTER.

[@tacticalbattledroid]

classic tuneage nuff said .';-)

[@plee1974]

You must be roughly the same age as me ,and i couldn't agree more with your comment. Every time you see an Oldschool album coming out and its full of crap from early 2000's and upwards and i'm like WTF THIS AIN'T OLDSCHOOL !!!!!!!!

[@robertmcandrew6361]

And, ALWAYS hide your best albums when you're sharing a flat with others......

[@jsbcooper]

Flicks, Guildford - minging but marvellous :-)
