Every so often, I like to go back in time. And when I say every so often, I mean multiple times a week. Why? Well, as you grow older, you seem to find the older music much better, and you like to reminisce to the forgotten decade you love the most. For some it's the 80s, some might even like the 70s, but for me it's the 90s. I was a teenager for most of it, but the 90s were just much better, in many ways. Only at a later age did I discover the early 90s rave sound, and I'm glad that I have. Would not have been TCD without it. And for today's mix, we are going back to 1991/1992, with a mix by Mickey Beam.
A few of Mickey's mixes have made their way to this website, and they all seem to be focussed on the late 80s to mid 90s music, mainly Rave music. And those are the best years. I still have a lot to discover, but slowly I get to known all the tunes that dominated the dancefloors all over the world. In this mix, Mickey has gone all out, and even though it's only 48 minutes long, within those minutes he throws hit after hit, so be ready for the madness!
So let's dive straight into the mix. And there's a few new tracks in here I've not heard before. Or maybe not noticed before. But Mickey has made sure that some of the biggest dance anthems of the 90s were in here, so you will be pleased once you've looked at the tracklist. And trust me, it's a bundle of joy!

There are a lot of big hitters in this mix, they will surely put a smile on your face, ear to ear. Mickey's selection is, as always, excellent. And as 'old' as they might be, they are still as relevant as they were, when they were released. And due to their importance, they have become dancefloor smashers, decades after their initial release.
I really enjoyed this set. Short, but very sweet. And some big tracks. Including a track by The Prodigy I wasn't familiar with.
Mickey gets the crowd going, and if you ain't moving, there's something wrong with you. Your body should be moving as vigorously as humanly possible. You cannot sit still, and enjoy this. I simply won't have that as an answer. Dance, like no one is watching! Dance!
Not much to say. Worth a listen. And it's got an Altern 8 track in here. Oh, and it's also downloadable, so that's an added bonus.
Hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as I have.
