Now That's What I Call Music
NOW Music proudly presents the latest release in the “Now That’s What I Call An Era” series – Such A Good Feeling: 1988-1995 - a celebration of a truly transformative time in music, when dance culture reshaped the mainstream, soundtracked a generation, and lit up the charts across the UK and beyond.
This 4CD dive into the golden years of house, rave, and club anthems features 82 essential tracks spanning the late ’80s to the mid ‘90s, bringing together the biggest hits and most iconic names that defined the era. Available as an 82-track standard 4-CD, and also as a ‘hardback book’ 4CD version, including a 28-page booklet that features a track-by-track guide.
CD1 opens in style with ‘Such A Good Feeling’ from Brothers In Rhythm, this collection’s inspiring title…ahead of dance-pop pioneers S’Express with the chart-topping ‘Theme From S-Express’, Deee-Lite’s irresistible ‘Groove Is In The Heart’, and defining house tracks from Inner City, Adventures Of Stevie V, and Krush. Next up, a trio of #1s : Soul II Soul & Caron Wheeler with the hugely influential ‘Back To Life (However Do You Want Me)’, alongside the brilliant fusion of dub, reggae and house on ‘Dub Be Good To Me’ from Beats International and the electronic acid house of ‘Killer’ from Adamski that introduced Seal. UK club culture and the sampling revolution are celebrated in ‘Beat Dis’ from Bomb The Bass, Coldcut and Yazz & The Plastic Population’s ‘Doctorin’ The House’, and Kenny “Dope” Presents The Bucketheads with ‘The Bomb! (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind)’. Floor-filling favourites are featured from Nightcrawlers with ‘Push The Feeling On’, ‘Son Of A Gun’ from JX, and Tony Di Bart with his #1 ‘The Real Thing’; whilst rounding off Disc One huge hits from D:Ream, Blue Pearl, The Original, Billie Ray Martin, Kym Sims and Zoë.
CD2 kicks off with a run of electrifying Eurodance – all massive club anthems. ‘Rhythm Is A Dancer’ from SNAP! leads off; a UK No. 1 and one of the defining tracks of the decade – followed by smashes from Corona, Real McCoy, Dr. Alban, Haddaway, KWS and Cappella. The disc continues with Top 10 hits from Maxx with Get-A-Way, Technotronic’s Get Up (Before The Night Is Over), and ‘More And More’ from Captain Hollywood Project. Undeniable dancefloor gems from Berri, Strike, Rozalla, Rob ‘n’ Raz & Leila K and Opus III all feature, while standout club favourites from The Grid with ‘Swamp Thing’ and Perfecto Allstarz with ‘Reach Up’ showcase the continuing innovation of the time. The disc moves towards its end with earworms from Grace and Urban Cookie Collective, before closing with two standout vocal tracks – both covers: Kym Mazelle & Jocelyn Brown with ‘No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)’, and West End feat. Sybil, with their massive version of ‘The Love I Lost’.
CD3 begins with the best-selling UK single of 1989 – and a defining dance track - ‘Ride On Time’ from Black Box, followed by C+C Music Factory with ‘Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)’, and the huge ‘Dreamer’ from Livin’ Joy, a 1995 No. 1 smash. Big chart hits for M People and Baby D, plus a second #1 appearance from SNAP! are followed by the rave energy of Oceanic, N-Trance, Felix, Xpansions and K-Klass… while vocal house classics from CeCe Peniston with ‘Finally’, Alison Limerick with ‘Where Love Lives’, ‘Shine On’ from Degrees Of Motion, and ‘Gypsy Woman…’ from Crystal Waters all offer timeless hooks, and feature along with the huge remix of Bobby Brown’s ‘Two Can Play That Game’, plus hip-hop crossover hits from Neneh Cherry with her debut ‘Buffalo Stance’, and Mantronix & Wondress with ‘Got To Have Your Love’. Coming to a to close, the disc winds down with smooth cuts from The Family Stand and Freak Power with ‘Turn On, Tune In, Cop Out’.
CD4 explodes into life with massive feel-good tunes: - Yazz & The Plastic Population’s ‘The Only Way Is Up’ – a 1988 No. 1 and landmark UK house hit opens ahead of ‘Big Fun’ from Inner City, 49ers with ‘Touch Me’ and Kym Mazelle & Robert Howard’s collaboration ‘Wait’. Creative classics from Coldcut & Lisa Stansfield, The Beatmasters, and S’Express are up next, before sophisticated dance-pop from Saint Etienne with ‘He’s On The Phone’, and trance smashes from Utah Saints and Moby. Acid house hits from Guru Josh and D-Mob lead into more of the era’s genre-blending classics from Chad Jackson, MC Tunes & 808 State and The Prodigy. Crossover hits from Happy Mondays with ‘Step On’, the timeless ‘Fools Gold’ from The Stone Roses and ‘Loaded’ from Primal Scream, which influentially fused club and alternative scenes… Finally, the ambient house of ‘Pacific - 707’ from 808 State and The Beloved with Ibiza classic ‘The Sun Rising’ provide the perfect closing moments for this huge collection of era defining dance tracks.
