Since my fascination for Hardys mixtapes, it was the Your Mind track that became my nr 1 house record of all times, and the most desirable, due to the fact that it was never released on vinyl. Ive also understood that this track is known as the holy grail of house music according to music and house fans all over the world.
The track itself (the 2nd mix) is a very stripped down (minimal if you want)record containing elements of Novagas Faces Drums and a repeating voice. In the midlle at its climax theres a little Mirage-sound (if you pay notice) You have to hear it to believe that this is one of the most powerful, dark, atmospheric and insane track theres ever made.

And now its available on vinyl
Unfortunately its a bootleg and the sound is terrible (because of the orignal tapes). In fact the record is unplayable for the clubs. But maybe that is a good thing, because when it is played out everywhere, it looses some of its magic.
Conclusion: brilliant music, bad medium.
