1999 , no Whatsapp no Facebook , no Tinder , no Instagram .. happier people and experienced more dancing

2024 still listening. best mix ever.

Im just in tears listening to this Set. Realizing my life is half way though (if im lucky). Been to so many raves and parties. Met so many people. The fun, the highs and even the lows. Life was just so amazing. So fresh, so much to discover. Yet here I am now, stuck in my home.. unbale to enjoy good parties because im just done. Not even this virus but just the entire mindset of people. Lost many friends and family. The music doesnt give me these feelings anymore. My mind is blank. Memories starting to fade away. It hurts to get up. It hurts to go to sleep. What the fuck happend to me, to society. Where did it all go wrong? Its like there is nothing but rage and anger. Maybe it just me. But I would love to see social media go away and make people Go out again. Experience life as its suppose to be. In stead of living through your phones. Sorry for this rant. Im just having a mental breakdown.. thats what this music does. It takes me back to better times. Such good times. Yall kids better live your life. Its gonna be over before you know it. Bless anyone who understands my feelings.

it was my late son garry that got me into Paul Oakenfold back in the late 90,s ive never regreted it. love and still miss you garry xxx

When this aired I was 28 years young, 11/2020 turning 49 yo! Anyone other mid-lifers still listerning to latest 2020 dance trance electronica? Hell yeah! 1999, what a great year to be alive!

More than two decades later and still on point.

Too much nostalgia. Hurts my heart

Crazy to think I listened to this mix from my home in England back when it was recorded and aired on BBC Radio 1 shortly after I turned 19...and now I'm watching it 20 years later accompanied by a video of driving round where I now call home in Toronto...

From back in the day! When trance was trance, house was house and vinyl was everything. I know it’s a human tendency to enshrine the past as we all march to our inevitable deaths, but damn this WAS an epoch time to be on the dance floors and overall it’s an exciting time to be alive.

summer of 1999. what a great time to be alive.

This mix could have came out today and everyone who doesn't know about it wouldn't believe it. Paul made music way ahead of its time. Damn great mix!!!!!!

Been listening to this since 99, still amazing today!

Incredible set. Timeless, epic tunes. How I miss these days with all my being.

How many Djs nowadays would have the balls to play the same song twice in the same set. Oakenfold was the man

The Source - "Fly Away" This Paul Oakenfold set I've listened to about 1000 times, it was my favorite of his 1999 World Tour mixes for such a long time, one massive track after another.

Was thinking, "ooo a driving video, wonder if I'll be able to figure out where it was filmed." The car then immediately pulls out in front of the CBC building, where I worked when this mix was originally recorded.

“I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.” -Andy Bernard

Let's give the driver a nice round of applause for their safe driving.

This mix has been sequenced into my DNA and my soul

WHO listing in Febreary 2024????????

i'm 30, born in 1991. when all this music was popping, i was like 6. my uncles were big ravers in university at the time, when they used to come home trance and this kind of music was played in their cars and in their bedrooms. although i was 6, this set is very nostalgic for me, it reminds me of an endless childhood summer. i've been to a lot of raves and parties but not one with music like this, i hope there's a massive trance reunion or gig and we can allg go and enjoy the vibes!

This is my favorite Oakenfold mix ever made! Can't believe I found it again.

Almost 2020 and still one of the best I ever heard...

2023 52 years old now, raving in my living room with my dog, how things have changed, i want to be in the 90s again when people really knew how to party

Opening a club and this is what it will be based on No rap, no pop, juuuuussssttttt lights and music

God bless the person who uploaded this timeless unappreciated gem

I was a Trance DJ around them times in the UK i had a gig in Washington DC bless my brother in law at the time he'd never heard of the music i played before man he was my biggest fan up until he passed away. He would blast my mixes everywhere he went bless his soul.

Keep coming back to this...an absolute audible treasure for all time!

Who's here after watching him live on twitch during the COVID 19 shut in on March 28 2020? All of those old records he was playing brought me back to an easier time in the 90s. Stay safe everyone!

This is the first electronic set I listened from start to finish. I was in college in 2004 and a friend gave those cds. I couldn't believe how amazing it was that each song followed the other like the other piece of a puzzle, the other turn of the same. Until then I could not understand why people bonded so much on music settings like raves. 20 years after... I now know

I was born in 94, so this is definitely before my generation. However, even though most electronic music I listen to sounds different, and is from later on, I instantly recognized that this is a classic. The quality and composition of this mix is just amazing, and should be appreciated by any electronic music fan

Who listing in AUGUST 2020??????

Good trance music is like an out of body experience. It's like you lose your surroundings and get transported to another place where the music just takes over everything.

I used to play this set in 1999 in my car on MP3. The car audio was EXPENSIVE just to be able to play MP3

I can't believe I've never heard this Oakenfold set. I love New York, Tranceport and Creamfileds, but I didn't know this one.

1999.. I was 22 years old!! (Sigh) still listen to it like the first time. 43year old and still get goosebumps,at minute 32:00.. many things to remember.

Paul oakenfold - legend.

This is Oakenfold at his very best, when he could weave his way through heavenly melodies, dirty breaks and big room anthems seamlessly. I close my eyes and listen to the first twenty minutes of this and I can feel the warm Ibizan breeze, see the dark starry skies and I feel like I'm 18 again - no worries, no cares, no problems. What a time to be alive it was.

My friend and I drove 6 hours to the beach and back just to listen to this mix over and over. 20 years later and I still hear something new every time. Magic. Whenever Auranaut - Yoyo hit, we would both look at each other with a "holy FUCK" expression on our faces

Came up in my feed, (I'm in my mid-40's) its now 2021, this is still the high water mark for Oakenfold, one of the best. You get older, priorities in life change, but this never (ever!) gets old.

Paul mixed on that day as if our and all other lives depended on it, Still goosebumps and beautiful memories on this one Coming from home @Space Ibiza♡♡♡

I saw this live on 3 hits of acid. So lucky to have experienced that.

I've just trained at the gym with this playing on my phones... wow.. what a journey ... what a workout!!

That first tune is mint. Late 90s raving was amazing! Close your eyes and reach for the lasers.

I don't usually like trance, but this mix is a true masterpiece. I remember downloading it from napster almost 20 years ago, and since then I listen to it along with the 2001 essential mix by Richie Hawtin. Sorry for my low level of English.

I first heard this set back in 99/2000 and it changed everything. I had never even heard of Ibiza. It sounded like this mystical island in the middle of the Mediterranean ppl like me in the States could only dream of going too. Well that dream for me finally came true 15 yrs later when I visited in 2016. It was everything I thought it would be & then some. Eating dinner at Cafe Mambo watching the sunset on the Northern part of the island. Seeing Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike at Amnesia. Getting to visit Space like a month or so before it closed down. Seeing Hardwell at Ushuaia. The beaches. The scenery. I need to go back. Fyi, the essential mix in Havana, Cuba might be better than this mix.

SPACE was my favorite club in Ibiza because you went there at 8am and there was this huge platform that they moved out on to the dancefloor that had one of them big thick gym mats on top and people were just lying all over it coming on from the party sweeties ;) You were indoor until about 12noon, then you went outdoors to this open area where they continued the party so essentially you could club almost 24/7 . You would start out at about 7pm to get to Cafe Del Mar or Mambo which was a little hard to find the first time you go. There you watch the sun set which is awesome to see, then when it turns dark all these people appear juggling fire and hoops of fire, it's insane. I loved Cafe Del Mar because the toilet was all mirrors, the floor , roof, walls. So by 8-9pm you are in the west end clubs like Play 2 where they had a lazer show and other small clubs/pubs that if you bought 4 beers you would get a free 70cl of vodka, peach snaps etc so you just bought 8 beers and got 2 70cl bottles for next to nothing then later you would head to places like Es Paradise , Pacha etc which were like £40 door fee and £8 a pint of beer, insane yes? Anyway you would be there until about 6am then head to the Starbar and everyone suddenly jumps in all these taxis that arrive 10mins before Space opens and that's when you head there. I think the outdoor part was open until about 4pm then you move on to a beach party lol

Still have the burned CD's of this mix in a old book full of similar EM gems, but this one is truly special.! Top Oaky for sure. One the the best driving, raving, life mix of all times!

This one is a classic. I have heard it 1000s of times. Banging...

This set for me has always been the absolute best I've ever heard. I remember running across this back in 00' and it has been in my playlist ever since.

God!!!! Bullet In The Gun one of the best track of the history! And Paul one of the best for ever.

I love how much soul was in this trance music, these DJs know how to lay it down, respect 2024.

2021 Wow I remeber this from my older brother ... I was 11-12 in 1999 and wow what a time to be alive ... Much love from a Sicilian ❤️✅👍🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Paul is a Great DJ. Legend .

This never gets old it stands the test of time like the pyramids..i remember always choosing this one to rollerblade my baby boy in his stroller next to the ocean and I felt like I was going to lift off and fly🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

From June 2050, I can say this is every bit as dope as during those halcyon days of the late 1900s and early 2000s.

Absolutely one of the best sets ever recorded! Would have killed to be one the people listening to this live!

This set is Classic immediately recognizable by opening song. Once waiting in line to get in to Winter Conferece in Miami someone began whistling opening tune and entire crowd picked it up and carried on with it. Okie at its peak amazing to hear. One of my favorite summer sets ever, always brings back feelings of Ibiza summer vibe.

The set is absolutely timeless, we have 2023 it could also come from this year. Great Paul

This is still one of the very best mixes ever. 25 years later and it's pure magic. ps: Go listen to his Home@Sydney mix from same year also, more magic.

Reminds me of my senior yr in highschool. Oakenfold was the reason i started spinning trance when i was a freshman.

Great memories. Ive lived. Thanks to all who made it happen. Thanks for the great memories. I wish that everyone could experience those days. In moderation of course. What a time.

If it was possible to turn back the clock, I would. 1999 my life started, and with this music!

represent 2024 reliving 1999 when i was 20 years old ...

One of the masterpiece sets of all time.....can never get tired of it

Dr. Oakenfold takes us on real journeys that last with the times.

Im just wondering if anyone else here is like me in the fact that they were introduced to trance, Paul Oakenfold, and MDA/MDMA all at the same time?

An ode to the time when I lived in Toronto and drove to this beautiful music.

From Cassettes, to CDs, to USBs, Ipods, drives and clouds..this mix is always in my reach.

Just wanted to thank the uploader for this. Haven't heard this in forever and was so happy to find a version that wasn't bogged down with goddamn generic youtube ad trash. For rule dude, you rule.

What a great mix, what a great era, back when people went out and just jammed the night away

The GREATEST!!!! OAKEY!!!! I remember at Shadow Lounge Miami... Loved EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!! "AM I ON PAUSE"!!!!!

Almost x-mas 2020! Rediscovering this mix. Brings back those great memories of listening to the radio... "thisss is the essential mix.... live from ibiza" Good times, just close my eyes and teleport to 1999.

This is still the most beautiful mix I've ever heard.

this, havana mixes, miami 1999... they are regularly on my playlists... What Oakenfold did then is timeless, pure magic

Lord Oakenfold still reigns supreme on the decks! Relevant back then, relevant today... timeless!

20 years today and still the best mix ever

one of the best mixes EVER!! Long live Oaky!

This is my flying music. I have it on an old Ipod. I only have the second half, but I still love this mix. Sounds great on noise canceling headphones, especially when you are going on a vacation!

This is why we ❤ Paul Oakenfold .....just let yourself go and wake up to the uniquely beautiful all loving you the world is trying to suffocate.. here's loving all you❤p.s.you've got to admire the timing of the sun coming up ... perfectly intime with the awesome selection when facing 🎉🎉

Quarantine, 18 Dec 2020 epic. Still one of the best sets. Ever.

Crazy--Paul Oakenfold! I remember seeing him perform at a uni party in Oxford back in late 1995. Epic!

😍🎧Music is the closest thing we’ll experience to time travel. I throw on some headphones, close my eyes... 💥 I know exactly where my mates n I were when we heard this mix. While Driving Mitsubishis. ;) And the hours we all danced our arses off. Some of the best years of my life. 😎🎧

Remember hearing this in college. Never looked back since. Oakenfold in Seattle July 9th 2023. I’ll be there🎉🎉🎉

I always sit straight up in my chair for the Lange mix of Brainchild - Symmetry C. What a great set.

Hands down the best mix I ever heard

Damn Peak Oaky right here, absolute master class in track selection, each one perfectly flowing into the next, filled with ups and lows, classics strewn throughout. Perfect mix. Miss this era of DJing man, the late 90s really did have it going on.

Top ten trance sets ever. Maybe top 5. Definitely reflective of happier, less confusing times. Respect 🫡 to you Mr. Oakenfold. True legend!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

⚠️ Still remember listening to this the night it aired live on Radio1 in my dorm room. Still dope 2 decades later. Shout out to my friends of Van Cott Hall @ the UofU.

OMG been looking everywhere for this legendary mix!! I used to play it so many times on my shitty mp3 player back when i was still in school 20 years ago.. Man, time flies..

Paul Oakenfold , ahead of time

December 2020,loving the old essential mixes all over again. Staying up to tape them on a 2hr cassette tape! Fabuloso!

An incredible journey of sound and travel through one of the most beautiful cities in the world!! To all who find this I wish you well and enjoy!!! Big Ups to the poster!!!

Always on my usb key car...in 2024 ... intergalactic mix, from start to finish forever ^^

My condo in Austin while going to UT, 2000. So many great memories. Put this on and shit went down. Victory

Cупер сэт, впервые его услышал в 2002, с тех пор слушаю, когда скучновато и хочется летнего позитива!

Legendary mix. Have had a copy of it for years and always return to it!

The best trance set of all time
