look at bells. i have never heard a techno track played as often as that was back in the day. and it still sounds good.
Yes a classik is put on a higher standard. But can you imagine if at every party you went to, bells was played? Personally it wouldnt have the same feeling for me as it would now. Im sure there was a period of time where bells was not played as often, and after that grace period when the occasional dj dropped it, every1 went ape shit, the way it happens today. Like I stated before I wouldnt mind hearing some1 drop dk8, or even LA Rock by vitalic a couple of years down the line...
