Tony De Vit recorded this Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1, first broadcast on 8 January 1995 — the 1st of their 2 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 Hard House territory.

The mix runs through 29 documented tracks, opening with Pete Tong — “Tony De Vit Classic Essential Mix Intro” and closing on Version Two Feat. Norma Lewis — “Higher & Higher”. Along the way it draws on labels like Trade - TREP2, Ouch! - OU12S09 and Beeswax - bees 004.

Listeners voted it the Essential Mix of the Year for 1995.
