T99 performing "Anasthasia" on Top Of The Pops in May 1991. Interestingly, the group has never made any official video for the song despite it being a top 20 hit in the UK.
I grew up on this as well but I don’t feel sorry for kids nowadays. Mainstream is indeed flooded with rubbish but good music is still being produced today. Takes some effort to find it, and good raves are not so common anymore but one who looks for others alike will still find them. Nothing ever stayed the same since always, otherwise we would have never had these music to begin with and we should instead embrace change. Not only this music is still being produced but it also gave birth to some new lines of music I highly enjoy. I hear you and understand what you mean to the soul my friend. I am at times nostalgic, really, but I’m often reminded by one of the most recurring words of our civilisation in every age and it’s “kids nowadays”. The world has always been in a perpetual change and the sooner we realise this the funnier and fun it becomes. Look how sweet the trends from the past come back in fashion in cycles all the time, basically nothing really dies and if something was good once given the opportunity the world will appreciate it again and put its spin on it. Lots of love friend 💕
@@questioneverything8301 I remember sitting in college, 90-94, in the "tv lounge," and MTV was always on. It mattered. 120 Minutes, Alternative Nation, Club MTV, Headbanger's Ball, Beavis and Butthead, Liquid Television, etc., it mattered. I'm in the States, so we didn't have TOTP, but same feeling- it's unreal, like a different world entirely, a different dimension, to say that MTV was once actually important, that popular music was once actually good. Perhaps the giant Super Collider, when turned on, changed the world, turned it all FUCKING STUPID. At least we have our memories.... For now.
@@thirdstar9255 i know what you are saying, it was like a different world. im glad i was part of it. be good if we could go back to that time in history. MTV mattered, music mattered, it was a big part of our lives, and now awesome memories. we can hope that a similar time occurs again in the future, but the music scene just seems to keep on getting worse.
This version is DOPE. This rapper kicks ass. The diva can BELT OUT a tune. Oh! This is the Valentine Boys edit! Wonder why this mix wasn't as widely included on comps!
She really is.I checked out your channel you probably the only person that has more video of her what a talent she is. Check out my channel too you might like it .
"Music Maestro, please !" - 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏1991, we called this Genre "TECHNO-HOUSE" 😊😊😊🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍!!! "Love Parade" and "MAYDAY" were rising, these were DAMN GOOD Times !! #StillListeningToItApril2021
I recently did an interview with Olivier Abbeloos aka T99, where he tells the story about "Anasthasia". Hope you guys like it! Oh and also with a very good story about this "live" performance ;-)
I played this on full volume, on the Hitachi TRK-9 Master Blaster, on the beach, on the Isle of Man while, on Holiday back in August 1991. Folk loved it. on & on & on ;)
Something tells me it’s not actually her voice though. I feel like it’s someone else and she’s just the one it perform it as it her singing it. I could be wrong though
Sorry, didn't see your response earlier. If you're talking about the "stab", which is also in Altern-8's "Frequency", that's actually a sus-chord roland sample from an s-series sample library. Can actually be found on more than one roland sample based keyboard from late 80's to early 90's. The banshee chord is more like a pad/string sound which I found accidentally on an MKS-50. "banshee chord" isn't really a "banshee."
@@user-re2yu1ed7v я не Сергей, но знаю конечно: например Altern-8, SL-2 (оттуда кстати Келли Оверетт, которая была как бы солитской в проекте "Cappella"), Dream Frequency, Urban Hype, The Ratpack, Genaside II, Messiah, Praga Khan, Lords Of Acid, Love Decade, Shades of Rhythm, да и много других проектов...
I am a heterosexual female with a crush on this singer... She is hawt! (Just crazy to think this song is thirty years old. This song is old enough to be the parent of a teenager!)
Была когда то в начале 90-х аудио кассета любимая ! На одной стороне U-96, альбом Das Boot, на другой стороне тоже альбом, но я не знал кто его исполнитель..Не было тогда гугля))).... Собирались, тусили, млели все. Потом одна блядь, её у меня спиздила! Через месяц нашёл я свою кассету, а там перезапись с двух сторон, на Эсовбэйс. Я готов был придушить эту тварь! И только случайно лет через десять после этого, услышал знакомую композицию. И узнал название Т99. Дааа, приятные юношеские воспоминания)))
"готов был придушить эту тварь!" - бро, ты этим все СКАЗАЛ! отбей пять! хаахаах рейв хип-хоп рулит! Хотя на Ace of Base ты уж сильно не наезжай. Они были не так плохи!
I always hated this version. Purely for the crappy vocal and rap. Reminds me of all that cheesy euro-dance fodder which was prevalent in the '90s made for mainstream radio and MTV style music channels. The Out Of History Mix and the other Instrumental Mix were the best. No vocals to spoil the boombastic action!
The classic version usually played on the radio was Scirocco Edit I think (which had a short and long version). Scirocco is 1 and 3 on the maxi-cd, the rap version 5.
In the description it says there was no official video released for this song. But I could swear a video for Anasthasia was played on Video Music Box (NYC music video show that was played on PBS). I don't see a video on CZcams... but does anyone else remember the video?
The weird thing is that there ARE music videos for several of their other songs from the same album. It doesn’t make any sense that they didn’t make for this one.
Must be one of those newfangled wireless keyboards they had back in the early 90's. Either that or it's running off batteries and has a really loud internal speaker lol.
Mad to think some of the bangers what where on top of the pops considering radio 1 banned most acid house tunes, couldn't stop the steam train so jumped on it

Mother of rave anthem a gamechanger for electronic music 👌🏻 Excellent
This is the dogs bollocks!! So privileged to have been a teenager through those early 90s❤

Same as Paul.
No doubt, my friend, no doubt! Kids today….”where’re their phones?!”

Sod em. We had the *times*
Yep they're all messed up now. They don't understand us and we don't understand them
Broadcast on 9 May 1991. You knew the 90’s had well and truly arrived when you heard this. Interesting bra, by the way.
Fuck I forgot how cool the early 90s were in the techno scene.
Wow! I never knew Anasthasia had lyrics, until about 3 minutes and 4 seconds ago!
the good old days, when music meant something, and totps was still relevant

Lol
Me too
Sounds still good in '24, this was a popular music style in my country back in the early 90's
EVEN IF THEY BRING BACK TOTP, THERE'S NO WAY THEY COULD TOP THE TUNES FROM BACK THEN, AWESOME STUFF :-)
A....mEN..
I was 20 at the time what memories and what a tune!
This version is DOPE. This rapper kicks ass. The diva can BELT OUT a tune. Oh! This is the Valentine Boys edit! Wonder why this mix wasn't as widely included on comps!
What's DOPE?
Wow wow wow still fresh. Definitely a techno masterpiece.
Another Belgian gem...
This rapflow kicks like a mule! 🤩
Tengo 26 años y en pleno 2024 amo la musica de mis padres que hermoso de verdad era antes
Never knew they'd appeared on TOTP! This is the best mix too.
damn , love her singing -
My neighbours gonna hear some good tunes today after work - even if they dont want to...

Yeah, who is this? She can belt out a tune. Looks like a bootleg version of Plavka, but not nearly as lovely.

I want that wireless M1.
Any M1 could be made wireless with a transmitter :) The hard part is powering it from thin air :)
top of the pop was a playback show look at the singer too far away from the microfon :::::
It could also automatically downloaded all the samples straight from the users mind.
@@norepetitivebeats he he
It ain't wireless, lol, it just ain't plugged in, they never were. It's singing over the record.
Luve that famale singer. What a great group. What an ERA.
I doubt that's her actual voice, there was a bit of a trend of sticking slim dancers on the mic rather than the original singers.
Thats true back then. I cannot even find out who she is maybe you could find her. I looked every where I could ,but could not find her.
Thats Elliott E'lan Sly from Sly and Lovechild, real voice real singer
She really is.I checked out your channel you probably the only person that has more video of her what a talent she is. Check out my channel too you might like it .
That might be Sly, but look how far she is from her mic. Maybe the rapper is live but she aint..

Good to see this again. Always remember seeing it on Top of the Pops when it was in the charts, with the Gripper Stebson lookalike doing the vocals :)
The dance style was so new jack swing
Ain't no thing like a new Jack swing.
Niezmiennie piękne, nowoczesne, chłodne i energetyczne, jak w 89-90 kiedy slyszalem to po raz pierwszy. Acid House rządzi! :>
The "banshee chord" from an Alpha Juno has been used on many electronic hits in addition to this and Altern-8's "Frequency."
me gusta exactamente igual que entonces, es un pedazo de clásico..con esto imposible tener un mal dia💥💥💥💥
Στην λευκη με αγαπη αλεξανδρος 1991 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Fuc★ing Amazing.
The best street record I’ve heard
Thanks for this upload. I watched this as a kid and immediately wanted a raiders trenchcoat. I also did my6 own lame version of the dance :)
SUPER COOL!!!

Well i did love both but the original But TOTP'S wanted some thing with the lyrics
An era that Defined was my Equivilent to my summer of love And well it is era that was
Same here, brother

Rockin
The Brutal dance song at that time
thank you for this stab school... or obscure old school
bella mujer bella voz
Me gusta esta musica mucho......I love this music.....
Lol, as if that girl had anything whatsoever to do with those vocals :D
Probably Martha Wash like all the other songs at that time
Your knowledge of girls may be flawed...
The guy behind the synth also didnt made the track.
Just like as if muhamud came down on a unicorn from heaven, thanks I'll go with the girl on the vocals
C'mon! She's just got powerful lungs.

I have to disagree tbh, I thought the rap in this was great, even though I don't usually like rap.
Anyway all versions are good in their own way.

it is a secret layer of some sounds, but it sounds close to Carmina Burana it is true ; )
