Mixmag Records releasing Fergie's Let There Be Hard House mix

It's hard, fast and banging

The next releasing coming out on Mixmag Records is Fergie's Let There Be Hard House, which will be available on iTunes from tomorrow, July 1.

The standard dance music tale of the year 2000 tends to focus on superstar DJs and superclubs: Fatboy at Manumission, Paul van Dyk and Seb Fontaine at Cream, hugely overreaching Millennium night raves that left thousands stranded at empty venues, Toca's Miracle and Chicane featuring Bryan Adams.

At street level though, clubs like Sundissential, Passion and Trade were pushing a sound that was harder, faster and more balls out boshing than anything you'd hear Pete Tong play on the radio. This was peak hard house, and Fergie was its king.

At a time when he was snorting powdered Red Bull to keep up with the most punishing schedule (and records) in DJing, Ferg's March 2000 'journey into Bangingland' cover mix showcased the sound that was thrashing dancefloors from Coalville to Clerkenwell.

Fergie takes in the masters of the hard house scene from BK to Knuckleheadz...

As Fergie would say, happy days.
