Post-Rave Blissed Out Nostalgic Anthems

Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed
I'm considering making a compilation of tunes that touch on different facets of nostalgic post-rave timelessness, if you get me. The genres can be wide-ranging, as long as they have some varying degree of influence from the first wave of rave. Although one may argue against the idea on the basis that placing them all together might destroy the effect, seeing as how many of them were no doubt single blissful peaks on albums that were otherwise not connected, i'm still interested in gathering them all into a little package for listening/interest. Suggestions?

heres a few so you get the idea;

MBV - Pick your own one from Loveless, or perhaps Glider
Chemical Brothers - Let Forever Be, Where do I begin (they were good at making those)
Orbital - Halcyon and on and on (of course...)
Seefeel - Imperial, Moodswing (many more examples)
BoC perhaps? likewise, i'd like to hear which ones people choose

The reason why i'm interested in this is mainly because many people don't seem to get these sort of 'vibes' from these tracks. I was wondering if anyone got the same sort of feel or if its already an established idea. Please feel free to wax lyrically, like always

the streets - weak become heroes
not about the 'first wave' of rave perhaps, but definitely nostalgic post-rave timelessness

Interesting, thanks guys. So how about artists who were primarily concerned with the attainment of this feel, or, at least, concerned to a considerable degree, or even lesser, did a lot of those tracks. Orbital, the Orb, The Chemical Brothers, Seefeel, Casino vs Japan, Primal Scream.

More more....
