Massively underrated tune. From the same period of time- 'Pull over' and 'We can do this' w/ hixxy. They don't make hardcore like that anymore.
I remember hearing Pull Over for the first time, Hardcore Heaven about 2005. Blew me away just how bouncy the dancefloor went. I've loved that tune ever since. Sadly, later I found out it was a cover or someone else's song. Shame, but still a great hardcore tune.
Alot of Re-Cons tunes from that time where covers or remixes of older tunes but he did them in such a way as to make them original, Enjoy, We Can Do This, Cry, Pull Over.
I'll just leave this one here:
Also, Report to the Bassline was terrible and Re-con has made a load of shit tunes imo but he has made some really good ones.

Yes I have very find memories of pull over. Was one of my favourite tunes to hear at a rave, as the dance floor always went mental when it was played. For some reason I didn't like it as much for casual listening.
Never too late is one of my favourite all time tunes. I remember hearing it at an Htid event in Birmingham for the first time, got the tape pack from the event and used to play and rewind constantly. Used to think the lyrics were 'slam it to the left' until it featured on CLXH 2 lol.
Notable mentions to re-cons remixes of 'still the one' and bimbo jones 'come fly with me'. Both excellent tunes.

Come fly with me was a great remix but Still the One wasn't imo.

I love it!
Forgot to mention, "Hardcore DJ (Re-con Remix)" is absolutely shockingly terrible too. Not sure which one is worse - that or Save The Rave. Did he pay the DJs to put it on the Clubland albums or how'd they end up there!?

Ive never faulted the guy for his work in the past, he hit the scene with some great tracks:
"free again"
"rock da crowd"
"never too late remix"
"come fly with me remix"
"close to you remix"
"enjoy"
Its safe to say the guy has earned his place in the scene, ofcorse hes made some absolute shite tunes but thats something the majority of artists have done.
When i first heard Enjoy it bloew my mind, i even turned my own remix out ;) no where near as good but was just to show how much i loved it!
