Degrees In Motion – Shine On

One of the very best classic house love songs ever produced and a feelgood dancefloor track that tore it up on the regular at Flesh.

Mariah Carey – Dream Lover

30 years on and those bottle hits and bassline slide in the introduction are Pavlovian to any classic house aficianado. Easily in my Top 3 of all time wonderful David Morales remixes. A Flesh anthem

Club 69 – Let Me Be Your Underwear

Flesh had a cheeky side. The people who discovered ‘The Pussy Parlour’ in the ‘Gay Traitor’ second room in the basement were in for an eye-popping surprise. This was one of those records Classic 90s finger snaps. where they lyrics encouraged mass miming and bad behaviour: “Come on take off your jeans – I wanna see your underwear, so I can touch you there, and there, and there!”  Sexy time from the mixing desk of Peter Rauhofer. Hurt me, hurt me!

Evelyn Champagne King – Shame

Disco Queen Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King more than delivered with this uptempo singalong and dancefloor destroyer. It’s a classic of tale of love’s labours and holding on to the one you love.

Gwen Mc Crae – All This Love That I’m Giving 

Cassius sampled this diamond amongst precious jewels – Gwen McCrae laid a fierce vocal over a deadly, lazy funk groove. Dancefloor catnip.

Frankie Knuckles – Workout 1992 (Vocal Mix)

There’s those finger snaps again that call all the dancers to the floor. 

Sister Sledge – Thinking Of You 

I could have picked 10 Flesh tracks from the back catalogue of The Chic Organisation alone. This Sister Sledge singalong is still one of the most popular disco tracks.

Candi Staton – Young Hearts Run Free

46 years after its original release this Candi Staton disco classic endures and is still one of the most requested disco records for me.

Deee-Lite – Groove Is In The Heart

Lady Miss Kier Kirby is an incredible inspiration. I have many abiding memories of Kate O’Donnell dancing on the bar and swinging from the rafters in The Gay Traitor Bar to this. This record always brings the party.

Soul System – It’s Gonna Be A Lovely Day

Robert Clivilles and David Cole were on fire through the 90s and the Palladium House Anthem took the Bill Withers influenced R'n'B track from The Body Guard soundtrack (Michelle Visage on vocals) and amped it up into the mix that had people literally swinging from the rafters.
