Met Junior at Billy Bunter's "Tasty". What an absolute gentleman he was, so we chatted for a while. Had no idea who he was until he said "Gotta go and do some work!" and sang this on stage...wonderful times! Wish I could go back!
Even though i'm a drum and bass head nowdays, this choon still has a place in my heart. Had it on cassette when i was about 12 :) Hardcore will never die!
Well what can you say. The bit at 3:09 nails this for me. Wow.... It pops into my head so often and from then on everything just seems better and better.
Just a little info this was going to be released as 'Lullaby' just before the release force & styles were playing an event in sydney where they said they saw the best sunset they have ever seen and it was re-named pacific sun :-) R.I.P. Mc Junior
@@TEKTONIX1 I feel you brother. I'm actually a die hard JUNGLIST, but I always loved those really special Happy Hardcore tracks, like this one. All the best to you my friend...oh...ps...everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, repeats - it's the nature of Reality, so next time you get to thinking about the past or it hurts cos of what we've lost, draw solace from the fact that we WILL experience it again...peace mate....
1990's were truly special, not like this crap we've got now. Long summers, Milton Keynes, sanctuary, Rollers. Amazing people, we just got along, made some amazing friends. Banging weekends. DAVE AND PENNY! thanks for the good times.
I commented on this track 9 years ago to rave in peace junior,and seeing your comment made me think of mk and the sanctuary,ty i malways stop by the masterpiece every once in a while
@@StewartEvans52 much love brother, yes they were very special times. Hey maybe we bumped into each other on one of those mad nights. Pacific Sun is such a nostalgic tune, it always takes me back.
still love this song better over every rave tune both old and modern as this one lives in my heart more than any other song. sadly they dont make music like this anymore its all rubbish these days :( when I have a bad day I put this on and instantly im HAPPY.
Force and styles and mc junior done this and pretty green eyes live pa at hardcore heaven the first one in feb 96 I was lucky to be there and it was announced as lullaby when performed am sure they said it was the first time that and pretty green eyes had been played god am a lucky ducky!!
Difference between music now to 10-20 years ago = Soul and heart has been removed. :--( Dont be conditioned by the powers at be people! Remember your love for every other human soul! Bring back happy hardcore! Bring back the good times!
happyhardcore at its best! force an styles used to churn out MAJOR FUCKING tracks man, pure happy feel good shit, few tablets down ye neck, with good mates, damn i miss those times
Not me, ChatGPT - "Force & Styles - Pacific Sun" refers to a track by Force & Styles, a prominent British duo in the happy hardcore music scene. This track, specifically, is well-regarded within the genre. Force & Styles, composed of Darren Styles and Paul Force, were influential in the 1990s and early 2000s, known for their distinctive, upbeat sound that often incorporated melodic elements and vocals, a bit of a deviation from the more traditional hardcore sounds of the time. "Pacific Sun" is one of their more popular tracks, appreciated for its catchy melody and uplifting vibes, which are characteristic of the happy hardcore genre. Their music, including this track, often features emotional or uplifting themes, sometimes with vocals that add a pop element to the hardcore tempo and rhythm. This particular song, like many in their repertoire, would likely have been a staple in rave scenes and dance events, contributing to the duo's lasting impact on the UK rave scene and its enduring popularity among fans of the genre.
I remember this song having a sample about a bloke fishing in it😂 and his wife complaining... i can't find that version anywhere swear I'm not losing the plot😂
dam it musta been about 15 year s ago i used 2 listen 2 these even me mam used 2 lik these bk in the day gud tunes yip sum gud memories god am only 28 duz,nt seem lik it was that long ago, years r fly,n by :)
Really, thank you so much for this. I have a promotional CD of just Force and Styles with this on it, but this mix is much better done. Thanks again, kudos.
@cheekyleopard im only 16 but the old time music is far better im an old skool kid wish ida been born like 15 years erlier proper soul proper vibes proper tunes proper rave its now all about fame and money back the music was about the tunes and the good times and i live old skool for ever and i wont stop coz i love it :)
I didn’t listen to much happy hardcore so only came across this about a year and it’s unreal. Is there anything out there as good that I might still have to discover?
Always slipped this into a set who’s still listening 2020? 💪🏼
Im Grafting this track in 2021!

I loved DJ En3rg1ze's 4 hour set which is on here as well, this song is on that to

this song is mind blowing. especially flute part. the 90s puts today's overly commercial club songs to shame.
1990's were truly special, not like this crap we've got now.
Long summers, Milton Keynes, sanctuary, Rollers. Amazing people, we just got along, made some amazing friends.
