Kinda hard what Mood II Swing are doing these days. Wanna check out some N.Y classic house. This is the record to get. Sleazy "Do It your way" is the real treat of what beats has to do with anything. A perfect Example of what they did back in the "Best" days of Garage from the US.

All Night Long Is the track I think that has made Mood II Swing to be looked upon as legends in their music era... the song that sums up the duo's music career, they are other tunes that come close like 'Sunlight In My Eyes' and 'Do It Your Way'. There's endless memories that flash past my brain while I listen to it, accompanied by mixed emotions, thoughts for the future, shivers at the back of my neck and a question: how was this tune produced ? It can satisfy a need of love, comfort for pain and being hurt or acceptance for disappointments. As much as time and therapy are healing factors, this track does the same... if not more efficiently. Play this song when you are alone or when you are having one of those moments, it will do wonders. Simply sublime, not many tracks have reached the sort of status as this did.

The baseline on this record is taken from the album

"7th Movement" - Odyssey
This record has the next comment...

(Awesome deep disco house music for the soul. A mesmerising flute lights up the record and the groove is just fantastically funky. A big record with DJs that know!)

This item is a must to have in each deephouse, House collectors discotheek.

This record is released in 1995 and was a big hit back then in the Escape in Amsterdam during the famous Chemistry nights. Often played by DJ's such as 100% Isis, Marcello etc

The main theme on "All Night Long" is actually a sample from Michael Jackson's "Rock With You" and if you check the chorus there's a clear reference to Michael Jackson's classic. Both songs are complete strokes of genius and who else than Lem Springsteen and John Ciafone could have come up with such a great idea.

"All Night Long" always gives me flashback to great times with friends at parties and afterhours when it came out and all of these years that have passed on since then.

Without a doubt one of my favourite records of all time, so treasured i have two copies just in case one gets damaged, Mood II Swing have a usually very high standard anyway but these two tunes are timeless, the production tight, and sounding as fresh today as ever. Just a shame no other remixes were done of 'Do It Your Way' and 'All Night Long' (that i know of).
