I'd recommend this as one of the fundamental mixes to understanding house music and it's history as a keystone to what we know and listen to today. There's a strong argument to be made that this mix (amongst others of course) was integral in shaping the history of electronic music.
I remember hearing this mix live (on bbc) man....great times back then...fresh out of high school here in Cali..no responsibilities...home base in oakland..maritime hall in the city...24th n telegraph...AM beach parties..nothing but fun..good memories
this is classic. nowadays, they just want hard and crazy beats bc they forgot about the melody is what makes trance great. sends you into a trance without using drugs. im glad i got to see oakenfold a few times live and i want to see him in vegas before he departs.
just looking for the mix that includes this track /watch?v=Lo4lZuDoufs&playnext=1&list=PLCA97C2B9A9D5DED7&index=51 Would greatly appreciate your help!
I am 19 and the majority of trance listeners at this age like the new style of trance.. those greasy and agressive saws.. in my opinion trance from nowadays is based on the transitions.. producers want to show their abilities taking the role of sound engineers.. but listen to this, it has a theme, all you hear is coming from heart.. these themes are still valid and very deep..
@OntologicOrchid I am 20 and I saw Oakenfold yesterday, he is still good. Benassi has his saws, but thats his style. I like modern trance like Armin though.
@OntologicOrchid I agree to a point, but to me there are too many people out there making trance music! You just make an mp3, thats it! Back then you had to try really hard to get on vinyl, so naturally only the best got released. Theres just too much shit out there, and its going in a shit direction as well imo!
I dont like any trance or techno or any mixes... but this shit... studying for a math test... while trying to listen to this.. was impossible. I cant get over the beats. Its an incredible feat of musicianship. Excellent work Paul, HOW BOUT WE PUT THE WHOE THING ON ONE VIDEO THOUGH??! :S
The first Oakenfold I heard was Tranceport & I STILL love it ... almost a decade after first hearing it. This was the first Essential Mix I heard. Reminds me of a time period that I wish never happened & I would sell my soul to forget.
I really haven't heard much techno but I was lucky enough to get Essential Mix Live Ibiza like 10 years ago just messing around it is probably my favorite... so awesome! I need to find his other essential mixes from 1999 I have a couple London and Miami I thought I had Shanghai and Havana but maybe they were on my old computer that crashed. like goa too but I think i've played this one more
oh God... this is the legend itself, the best from the golden age
It's amazing how crappy today's music may seem compared to this... just think for a minute that we have no video for it, no hips that don't lie (f*** Shakira!), no TV&radio support and it still keeps us alive and eager to dance to it in passion
I have been looking for this album to buy for over a year now and have no clue on where to get it.... any suggestions anyone or is anyone selling a copy?

I hope electronic music will once again be as good as it was in the 90s. I used to be so excited to get the latest Oakenfold and Sasha and Digweed CDs. This Ibiza set will probably live on as one of the best ever.
@Goooberooo it certainly makes my top 3.... Along with Deeper Shades of Hooj Vol.2 and Oakey's Another World....They're all so good and I can name so many more that are right up there. Those of you not familiar with Hooj Tunes (Hooj Choons) do yourself a favor and check 'em out....no longer a label, but put out some of the best trance in the mid-late 90s
WOW! I have had this mix on CD for almost 10 years. This is definatly my favorite Oakenfold mix by far. This brings back so many awesome memories for me.... The funny part is that when I was listening to it I noticed only a couple hundred people checked out every single part of it. Oakenfold just came out with a cd named perfecto vegas which reminded me alot of this mix, which is what made me check if it was on youtube.. Thanks for posting the entire mix.
jesus this brings me back.......glad i found it again i miss the oakenfold of this time...... actually i miss alot of the Djs from this time.......im speechless
especially the intro!!for my taste is his best but i may add the essential mixes of same year in shangai,liverpool,havana maybe sydney and the goa mix also some essential mixes of 96 and 98!!
he is the best dj ever far away for the 2nd!
last years i think he is after money as he goes with justin and madonna but his live sets are still the best!!!
i have fly lots of times with this one!great memories! i love you paul and thank you
