Paul Oakenfold recorded this Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1, first broadcast on 18 December 1994 — the 3rd of their 9 Essential Mixes in the Waveform archive. It lands in the show's formative years, when Radio 1 first handed two hours of its airwaves to club culture, and the set sits in Trance and Progressive House territory.
A full tracklist for this broadcast has not been documented — the recording runs as one continuous set. It aired in a year that also brought Essential Mixes from Snap, Andy Carrol & Paul Bleasdale, Sasha.
