Lectroluv - Dream Drums (1999)

On Eightball Records US...produced by Frederick Jorio and in the US released as a 2 X 12' , its the Junior Vasquez mix that put this over the top to make this list. Heavily requested all over the east coast of the US (i can bet on that) and just generally huge for a long time, this is a must for any classic late 90's house music list. It must have been my numer one record for months, despite my resistance to it ( i resisted a lot of the long involved Junior Vasquez mixes, but my Southern Connecticut New York centric crowd insisted. )

This groovy Sound Facory (nightclub) track  tore up dancefloors in gay clubs and huge house music nightclubs in the US when released in 1999. There were few songs as hot at the time.  This track exzemplified New York City and its nightclubs. Still a New York City metro classic.  Did I mention New York ? There was a whole sound based on the kind of beat in the junior Vasquez mix of this track...kinda like Get Your Hands off Of My Man by Junior....almost like commercial wildpitch sounding. Junior had at the time a signiture sound, this record was one of his most popular - and best - remixes.
