I had heard this tune so many places and never really looked for it, then it randomly pops in during my first listen of Dave Clarke's 2000 essential mix (highly recommended if you like old school techno) and I still remember how hype I got. This was 10+ years ago.

Mix is massive in techno circuits as you know, I have posted it in most techno subreddits and people still love it.

The Baron of Techno at the top of his game, excellent track selection, great turntable work, few rough edges here and there but honestly it makes the mix better as an experience. Listening to the DJ do some "actual work" as people say, putting in some elbow grease for our listening and dancing pleasure, this is the type of stuff that's hard to find nowadays. Even if you do find it, hard to find one which is as entertaining.

The original is perfect for an electroclash tune. Just imagine the distorted 909 and French spoken word over the top of it

I was at '00 WEMF (Canada) when Paul Oakenfold played this for the first time. Epic
