Gatecrasher's Trance Anthems 1993-2009
Built on the principals of innovation and diversity and fuelled by its upfront vision, Gatecrasher- the groundbreaking club brand- has propelled dance-music into the hearts of millions. Now, over three storming CDs, comes 49 defining Gatecrasher moments, featuring classic and future anthems.
The CDs mixed by Gatecrasher stalwarts Judge Jules, Matt Hardwick and Scott Bond encapsulate a sonic soundscape of sixteen years of Gatecrasher and are an explosive, euphoric, f*ck-yeah, hands in the air journey through the laser-imprinted anthems that guided to Gatecrasher to supremacy.
Gatecrasher's Trance Anthems 1993-2009 invokes stunning memories of trance's golden era from the soaring melodies and powerful pianos of Humate's Love Stimulation, to the evocative and climatic seminal Paul Van Dyk anthem For an Angel remixed exclusively for 2009 by Filo & Peri. The dramatic sonic journey continues with the sacred vocal trance of Not Over Yet from Planet Perfecto, Paul Oakenfold's beautifully emotive epic Summer Sun, Armin Van Burren's dramatic and ethereal Ubik and upfront future anthem Could Be Love from Judge Jules.
From humble beginnings to a world-conquering global club brand, Gatecrasher has continued to push boundaries and dominate dance music for 16 years. It's reputation as a flamboyant, individual and hedonistic brand continues to grow and the Gatecrasher name remains emblazoned in the heart and soul of clubbers throughout the world.
The Gatecrasher lion has always sat proudly at the forefront of clubland, responsible of some of the most awe-inspiring, never-to- be- forgotten events."2000GC" Millennium Eve event at the Don Valley Stadium, road blocked events at Birmingham's NEC Area and the sell-out Summer Sound System festival are immortalised in club-history .
If you were there when Tiesto and Timo Maas both made their UK debuts at the club, or when Paul van Dyk rocked 27,000 people at the Don Valley stadium. If you recall with moist eyes watching England beat Germany 5-1 on the huge screens at the Gatecrasher Summer Sound System, before heading off to dance until the sun rose. If you risked life and limb each Saturday, travelling across the 'snake's pass' from Manchester or got that buzz of anticipation as you headed up the M1 and the first signs for Sheffield began to go racing past, this album is for you..
