Tha Wildstyle! I love that record! Now I have a yearning to listen to Porn Kings "Up To No Good" and Klubbheads now (except I'm at work) . I will dig out Renegade Master for you later. (It started out as Legends Of The Dark Black if thats any help). You'd definitely know it if you heard it!

I adored the later remix of that song. About '98 or '99 I think. Wasn't into music to know the '95 version...

Aah, thanx for this.I DO remember this now!The vocals reminds me of Ya Kid K from Technotronic fame?It also reminds me of Tha Wildstyle which i prefer to this tune.What was the title of the "Wildstyle" mash up with another dance tune from the late 90s when it got rereleased?

Porn Kings VS DJ Supreme - Up To Tha Wildstyle.
I don't have that version, but I do have them individually. And umpteen remixes of Renegade Master.
My other favourite from around 1995/1996 when I most into this type of music was Delacy "Hideaway".

8 1) Everything But The Girl - Missing ? 2) Kirsty MacColl - Caroline 8 3) Dubstar - Stars 8 4) Human League - One Man In My Heart 6 5) Ace Of Base - Lucky Love 9 6) Saint Etienne - He's On The Phone 4 7) Wildchild - Renegade Master 7 8) Elastica - Waking Up 5 9) Alex Party - Don't Give Me Your Life 8 10) Squeeze - This Summer
A lot of NM #3s in there. All the ones I rated with 8. Saint Etienne reached NM #2 (kept out by Wonderwall) but none of those on your list reached NM #1.

This would be my Top Ten favourites from 95 : 1) Everything But The Girl - Missing 3) Dubstar - Stars 4) Human League - One Man In My Heart 6) Saint Etienne - He's On The Phone 7) Wildchild - Renegade Master 9) Alex Party - Don't Give Me Your Life These are the ones I know and like. I only discovered Stars and He's On the Phone several years later on the In the Mix 96 compilation that Danny mentioned. The Human League songs both bring back strong memories of the time, particularly One Man In My Heart although I prefer Tell Me When, awesome tune, must download that Alex Party one of my favourite dance tunes of the year, and although Renegade Master is good I prefer the 98 remix and at times can find it quite repetitive. Going back to what was discussed earlier in the thread, I thought Love Can Build A Bridge was ok at the time, but agree with Smurfie that it moved away from the fun element of Comic Relief records that made them so good. Its also dated incredibly badly. There was no middle ground with M People, you either loved them or didn’t see the appeal of them. I loved them at the time, their kind of dance pop was my kind of music and One Night In Heaven was one of my favourite songs from the summer of 1993. Open Up Your Heart was also a favourite but by the mid-late 90s they moved away to a more mellow sound and I consequently lost interest. Like Love Can Build A Bridge their songs have dated badly, so much so that I try to avoid playing them now.
