This massive tune that blew up raves up and down the UK in 1991 was certainly a ground breaking track that opened the door to a whole new style of hardcore rave music, it is also often cited as the first hardcore dance track to incorporate the amen breakbeat.

This is in fact wrong as the amen sample was being used in other tracks at the time and the first hardcore tune to feature amen was Father Forgive Them by Holy Noise (Hithouse) which was released in 1990.
