Toca’s Miracle Returns


It’s back… Having knocked about as a vocal classic for years since smashing right to the top of the charts back in 2000, Toca’s Miracle by Fragma is causing a fuss all over again.

Anthems: Three Drives - Greece 2000

More classic track and misty eyed reminiscing again today, this time from the lovely Victoria, who has chosen a tune that takes her back to time spent over in South Africa, raving it up good and proper. It’s an emotional all-time trance great. We bet you’ve had a few good…

Anthems: Strike - You Sure Do

Ahh, yes. Another great anthem for you today and it’s a biggie. Well, they’ve all been biggies - I suppose that’s the point - but this vocal smash from Strike has been on more lists of all-time favourites than most…

Anthems: Silence - Delerium


If there was one track in the offices at Ministry of Sound which was the most sought after when it came to people choosing their anthems it was this one, but Ben had the best memory for the track. A massive anthem which still, to this day, moves and inspires…

Anthems: Black Legend - The Trouble With Me

Another week, and more all-time anthems for you, selected by staff here at the office. This anthem was a hit in the summer of 2000, and used vocals like those of Barry White which made it popular across the generations, plus it had a great video. The track is on…
