Moopy's Greatest Dance Anthems - The Results Thread

[AGinAg (37)]

As The Rush Comes is such a whispery trance treat.

I hope Damaged makes it.

 

[COB]

Is this the trance slags everyone was talking about earlier?

 

[Zu]

None of my nominations have made it into the final yet. I assume that ButterTart has put them all at the end because they were so magnificent.

@ButterTart really has stacked some FUCKING AMAZING ones together at the end but they might not necessarily be your choices

 

[ButterTart]

This is my favourite of the semi, hands down. Just an absolute classic, it gets to me every fucking time.

 

[ButterTart]

This is new to me...pleasingly motorik. Can imagine this being quite the rush in the right context.

Oh yeah!

 

[BoysForSeles]

Now we're in the business end of the list, and I'm delighted to report that

MOTORCYCLE - AS THE RUSH COMES clawed its way into the top 40 (at number 40!). I didn't even have to cheat!

There’s a really good updated Paul Morrell remix too.

 

[octophone]

Yeah, that was good - best one that's new to me so far.

 

[ButterTart]

Our 11th most popular song of the semi: OT Quartet - Hold That Sucker Down (Builds Like A Skyscraper).

 

[Kate]

You'll make a trance slag of our Octy yet

11th?!?!

 

[ButterTart]

As The Rush Comes is such a whispery trance treat.

I hope Damaged makes it.

If it doesn't, I'm cancelling the rate and starting a new life on Digital Spy.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Hold That Sucker Down

 

[COB]

Ahh, this is one I recognise but wouldn't have known the name of.

 

[ButterTart]

There’s a really good updated Paul Morrell remix too.

Ooh, I'll have to seek that out.

 

[octophone]

You'll make a trance slag of our Octy yet

Don't speak too soon, this one is balls. Every keyboard and drum sound I'm bored of in one track

 

[ButterTart]

Hold That Sucker Down is one I've never really paid much attention to until doing this rate. This is fucking BRILLIANT.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

11th?!?!

Sounds quite high to me. It was hardly a chart smash.

 

[jyxz]

I’ve had proper euphoric ‘moments’ to this in club situations.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Ahh, this is one I recognise but wouldn't have known the name of.

90s gay compilation JOY.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The silhouette dancer is actually @ButterTart himself.

 

[ButterTart]

I actually think the name put me off it.

 

[dmlaw]

I had never knowingly heard this before the rate. It didn't grab me, but there must be something to it if it finished eleventh.

 

[COB]

Remember the old iPod ads?

 

[Zu]

There was a lovely interview in The Guardian with Rollo last year in which he said, “I genuinely hope I’ve spent my time making music that has some kind of emotional weight for people.” Mission accomplished AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!

[ButterTart]

Dame tu mano!
Y venga con migo!
Vamonos al viaje para buscar los sonidos magicos

ECUADOR!

@dmlaw gets his first scalp of the night with Sash!'s evergreen classic. Came in at 7th too, so a very astute late pick.

 

[octophone]

PISSBREAK 2 - ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

 

[Zu]

Oh my God the twinkly keyboard line on this gets me EVERY TIME!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

That Visit Ecuador poster is so gash.

OH I did not know that was him!

 

[COB]

Is it considered problematic to enjoy Sash! without Tina Cousins?

 

[ButterTart]

Sash! is pure nostalgia. Luckily, we've nominated 90% of his back catalogue so this is far from the last we'll be hearing of him.

 

[dmlaw]

Ecuador is a fucking choon. Probably my favourite of Sash!'s singles.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

There was a college trip to Ecuador at the time this came out. So it became a favourite for extra reasons.

 

[jyxz]

Was ‘Mysterious Times’ nominates?

I seriously fucking hope so.

#trash

Ecuador lady dancing on the rock, cheerfully unaware of the rapists sneaking up on her.

 

[octophone]

What was his weird chart record? was it four No 2's in a row?

The bird of prey was caught up in #MeToo.

It's OK, they were distracted by an eagle - an Ecuadorian tradition among rapists.

 

[ButterTart]

OBVIOUSLY DJ Sammy, Yanou, Do, Beaky, Mitch and Tich - Heaven was going to make it. This came in at 16th after a slow start.
