This edition focuses squarely on the biggest dance and club hits from 2007 to 2008—an era that bridged the raw energy of Electro House with the tail end of the millennium’s peak clubbing scene. If you were anywhere near a dancefloor during this time, chances are you’ll recognize most—if not all—of the tracks included here. Each one dominated the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart and captured the diverse pulse of the scene. From euphoric anthems to deep, soulful grooves, this was a period where musical experimentation met mainstream success. A Deep Cut That Still Resonates One of the undeniable standouts in this set is The Cure & The Cause by Fish Go Deep featuring Tracey K. While the original release had multiple remixes, it was DJ Meme’s version that truly left its mark. Known for channeling the Salsoul era with real string sections and deep, disco-rooted energy, Meme’s remix paid tribute to the late ‘70s underground—offering something completely unique in a sea of Electro House and Big Room soundscapes. Its lush arrangement made it a refreshing outlier, a reminder of the artistry that once dominated dance floors way back in the day. Extended Mixes That Kept Us Moving Another thing that sets this era apart? The length of these tracks. Seriously—they were long. We’re talking 8 to 10-minute versions that DJs could ride for ages, keeping the energy high and the transitions smooth. The early Electro House movement embraced this approach, making sure partygoers stayed glued to the dancefloor for extended stretches. While we aimed to preserve the integrity of the originals, we also made a few light edits for the sake of flow. For example, The Cure & The Cause originally clocked in at a full 10 minutes. A more accessible 6+ minute edit was released later, and that’s the version featured in this volume. How Streaming Changed the Club Mix As streaming platforms took off in the late 2000s, track lengths shrank. The push for more plays led to songs being chopped down to under three minutes—great for radio-style streaming, but awful for club DJs. This unfortunate trend carried over to remix culture. While we’ve bounced back a bit, with the average remix now hovering around five minutes, it’s still not quite where it used to be. The reality is, shorter edits limit a DJ’s flexibility. When you’re forced to use effects or create unnatural transitions just to make a mix work, it can pull the listener out of the experience. Ideally,
