Managed to pick up a copy of House Collection Vol 5 in HMV cheap at the weekend.

Mid / late 90s they did some fantastic compilation albums. The Club Classics series are well up in my list of fave albums. House Collection Vol 3 with Whitehead and Healy is a belting set.

Been nothing new for years. Anyone know what where they went?

Just like Dreamscape they have faded into the distance.

Dreamscape are making a come back, maybe Fantazia will. I have a couple of Fantazia albums, not overly impressed, but there are worse

astraboy

Damn right Dreamscape are making a comeback!
Sept 28th IIRC, Hold on, I'll go get the line up

Little Miss WRX

I have to admit I am a fan of Dreamscape, I am going to try to get to that event

Couldn't agree more Chris..

Those early albums caught the spirit of the whole uplifting house ethos... The early gatecrasher albums continued that as well, but the trouble is now there are so many varients on similar themes that there arn't really any albums that capture the feeling of the times... Oooerrrr that's a bit deep *shakes head*

Anyhow - blinding albums, still got all mine !

ChrisB

I've got House Collection 3 through 5 and Club Classics 1 to 3 (complete set). All brilliant. There was a little card for ordering other Fantazia stuff in the box, I'll ring to see if they are still about. Wouldn't mind getting my hands on their Tony de Vit Remixers album.

Pick up any three compliations in HMV these days from MoS, Cream, Gatecrasher etc and you can be pretty sure it'll be the same tunes in a different order.

I got a video of fantazia brillient!

Graham Beal

Fantazia, did do an album after the last house collection (Vol 6) it has two sexy ladies on the front (For a change) and its mixed by Mike C, not as good as the previous ones tho' Vol 3 Alistair Whitehead and Jeremy Healy has to be my all time fav

ChrisB

Ahh, my gaff. I got Vol 6 at the weekend - mixed by Mike C and Oakey. Already had 3, 4 and 5.

Vol 3 is indeed top banana

ChrisB, I've got the TDV remixers CD, Would you like a copy?
