I was on acid and witnessed this performed live for 5000 people at the NY Colosseum in Manhattan in 1994. He was headlining along with Aphex Twin, Moby and Orbital. It was complete pandemonium! In the history of electronic music that would be equatable to seeing Jimi Hendrix headline with Cream, the Stones and The Doors. If I am alive by the time they create the holodeck I will go back to that exact moment. 👽

It was , i think, 1995 or so when i searched for this record and couldn't find it.There was a record store who bought old record and sold them again. I asked if they had this record. They said, " No, but we can put you on a the list, when we get it we call you". I said ok and left.. 4 or 5 years later when i totally forgot about it, someone called me; "We have a record for you". I was like, huh, which record, i could not remember the title, but i went there to get the record. When i got home and listened to the record i realised it was this one!!. I was soooo happy! :)
imagine an artist trying to release a track like this nower days! Intro 3 minutes, build-up of 2.5 minutes, core part of 4.5 minutes and a short outro of 1 minute... Spotify wuldn't even notice you.
I count myself as one of the lucky people who got to listen to this in the OMEN Frankfurt in like '94 or sth. Darkness, smoke, sweat, everyone shirtless and high as fuck. Magical
Kann mich da an väth erinner der sack lies erst alles über Monitore leise laufen und als unter den Flächen die bassline anfängt zu pumpen haut er die ganze Anlage rein 🫣🤯🫠ach schön das alles erlebt haben zu dürfen
ja, da habe ich auch richtig Gas gegeben, diesen Track hier hat Laurent Garnier mal im Tor1 in Hannover gespielt, da sind alle Sicherungen aus der Birne geflogen, lol
My mate copied this onto a tape for me as he thought I was listening to too much 'simple' rave in 93 94? . Put this on the cassette in my old Nissan Micra driving across some misty moors on the way back from a funeral in Glasgow to Derby. Went apeshit. Had to stop the car and share the experience with the emptiness. Awe inspiring!
I was lucky to be 22 in 1987 when all this started . A friend of mine, who's parents had a big ass club, asked me if I wanted to join him at the dj booth, as a Licht Jockey. I said yes, and from that moment on, my life changed. Every friday, every saturday and every sunday evening I worked there from early in the evening till 8 or 9 in the morning. We had no closing hours, as only country in the world, I think. Monday mornings, after closing our club, we went home, refreshed ourselves and went out, clubbing. I kid you not. I lived this life for over 20 years and boy, the things I experienced, I could whrite a few books about it. If there's a god, I would like to say to him; thank you Lord, for all these fine moments.
@a w Belgium it was. Club scene nowadays is dead and buried. Last year one of the best clubs in Europe, La Rocca near Antwerp, closed it doors as one of the last epic clubs. Glad I was there from the beginning. I salute you
Wo...welcher Club war es??? '87 war ich 17, und erinnere mich auch noch als das Acid&(house)ship zum Trip ablegte...was für eine aufregende Zeit.🙂 Hab auch so manche Afterhour mitgemacht, oft sogar auch ohne irgend eine hour before😉... in ,,unserem" kleinen, aber feinen Resident Club. So ganz nach dem Motto...aufstehen...clubben gehen.😂😂😂 Von 6 -15:00
@@jeankloot1 Ok, danke. Dann bist Du gar nicht Deutscher, sondern Belgier!? Ist ja Dreiländereck. Checke erst jetzt, daß hier alle Kommentare von Dir waren...now i know...😁
Was treated to this in Space, Ibiza, in the early 90s, at about 10am, after a hard night in Ku. The whole place was pitch black - apart from the strobing roof - with this masterpiece clicking, soaring and throbbing away in the background as glowing silhouettes waved all around. Happy daze.
Funny story: the name was supposed to be "Gravitational arch of Io". As in "io" the innermost of the four Galilean moons of Jupiter. Not sure what the deal with its gravitational arch is, but one thing is for sure, Richie Hawtin (boss behind Plus 8 records) read the name wrong and the rest is history. I have this stomper on vinyl, wax rules.
That's right! Please read my comment above.... Just because Richie is stupid and ignorant(put aside his musical and DJ ing skills) the whole world misspells this title.
I wasn't prepared for this song when he played it on the See the Light tour. He was the first act and I thought there was just some dude twiddling knobs and testing gear and the sound setup and when it got going I realized that it the most amazing new thing I'd heard in such a long time. I recall he played just a few songs, a very short set, but this one, what an amazing piece. I'm so grateful it's here on TH-cam.
I saw him playing this live at The Arches in Glasgow in 1994. He was sitting on the stage with synths and drum machines on the floor around him. Fantastic night!
I saw him too on that tour here in Copenhagen in autumn 1994! I also remember him sitting on the stage with his machines around him. It was an amazing concert!
@@cph2400 The week before I saw a new up and coming act called The Dust Brothers at The Arches. This was before the lawyers (from the original Dust Brothers in New York) got involved and they changed their name to The Chemical Brothers!
Not sure if it was during that same trip but I saw him at Pure at Barrowlands. After his set I spoke with him for a while. Lovely guy. He told me that the day he wrote this track there was a snowstorm going on outside. Whenever I listen to it now, I close my eyes and see the swirling snow.
I've had a built-in love of electronic music that was first triggered by Tubeway Army's "Are Friends Electric" when I was 5 years old. This is my favourite piece of music, full-stop
I love electronic music as well but do not feel it is as accomplished as instrumental music nor do I feel it is as deep. But I still love electronic music.
back in '93: Me and my friend took some Acid 1 hour ago... standing on the Dancefloor.... listened to this special stuff.... blowing mind.... big eyes.... big ears.... biggest smile.... fantastic sound!!! Thanx for uploading, thanx for remember a very special moment in my life! :-)
This really is an exceptional piece of music. The production is incredible if compared to many other tracks of that time. Rich, wide and heavy. Beautiful.
Trekked over to Orbit, Morley in the early 1990s to experience Sven Vath, in an overloaded Ford Fiesta. Wandered in, and in between the blurred eyes and smoke, we were slightly surprised to see something banging drums in cages and several MC's chanting, then this masterpiece began, and rolled around the deck at 200dB for 10 minutes. Such moments are forever gravitated into your brain.
Back in a time where techno music in general was so much simpler and was not just about the latest plugins and the most loud compressor to use, but pure composition, vibe and atmosphere were the goal.
Yes, definitely. I listened to all the remixes and none were as good as this. I remember hearing it on John Peel and was at my record store the next day preordering it on import. Cost a fortune but I didn't care. I just had to have it. Still one of my favourite 12 inches to this day.
Ich hatte das Glück genau diese Platte in Köln auf der Warehouse Jubiläums Party 2020 nochmal nach über 25 Jahren live zu hören ! Ich war mit 50 der erste auf der Tanzfläche 😎
I'm 31 now and I only got into electronic music when I was 24. I was clueless, until my first rave and what comes with it I could not imagine what people would find appealing in this kind of music. Now, when I listen to classics like this, I tend to think that if there was one experience I could share with all the people I know that just don't get it, it would be tripping balls on ecstasy raving to this track. There's so much elegance, intelligence, layered abstraction in the sound and title and yet it's so primal and tribal; it's simply an all-encompassing masterpiece that makes you reflect on the themes and schemes of the universe. Otherwise I so wish I had been a young adult in the early nineties.
I will be honest with you, in the uk music & football was mostly all we had really growing up, fashions & fads came and went. So working all week at a piss poor job for piss poor money made us appreciate our Saturday nights out with friends all together because it's all we had to look forward to. And being at a rave with like minded people who you didn't know but were your best mate that night and all there for the same thing was magical truly magical looking back now im older. Great days to have lived through the 80s & 90s I had the time of my life. And this track sums it all up for me.
31 here as well. I discovered MTV's AMP back when it was on and i fell in love with this type of music ever since. But same feels over wishing to be growing up a bit older in the 90's to enjoy proper raves.
When i was researching records playing backwards, (what a joke btw) i discovered the first two minutes of this awesome track sounds exacly the same as forwards..... awesome production...
Modern producers can learn from this tune, especially the dynamic range of the track. there is a beautiful mix of quiet here. meanwhile all new music is competing to be the loudest tune in the club. the quite is what really draws me into this track. when finally it open up I'm lit.
Man, this takes me back! Lost, looking for love, looking for redemption, looking for meaning, wandering the mad nights, and then bang. This tune hits. Glorious.
Saw MArk play this live in Club UK in 1994. The intro left a room of a very lost ravers, looking for some measure of a beat and when the sirens started climbing, smiles started appearing. by the time that first kick drum 'kicked in' the place synchronised. It was, and is, magic!!
Saw vapourspace live in 1995 or 95 at PURE in glasgow at the barrowlands still gets the goosebumps going that siren with a decent Ecstasy grest memories 😎👌⚪💚
Had this track on tape, for long, but first time it hit me, was in Borealis 97/98, in Montpellier, France, played by the master, Laurent Garnier, himself, and then, the dancefloor went absolutely mad😎😎😎!
I remember hearing this for the first time about 7 years ago, just started listening to electronic music. Me and my friend sitting in my apartment high as fuck and just scrolling through youtube and listening to this unbeliavable music. At one point this starts, and we just went completely silent, total relax and chill of the intro, an absolute mindblowing sensation and journey through your innerself...
Had this on vinyl when it came out and somehow lost it, had it nicked 🤷♂️ Still sounds absolutely massive to this day and have heard certain hipster djs play it recently This shit Is timeless
I'm a metalhead at heart,techno got a hold of me and completely changed my life,this is one of the amazing tracks I witnessed in clubs and party's , amazing time 🤘👌💙
Phil Minotti I’m saying first time I heard it was on a 1993 Universe DJ set by Laurent Garner, has probably aged better than any other track I’ve ever heard
Homer used to play Dublin a lot in the very early 90's. Heard him about 20 times in Sides DC. Absolutely loved when him, Stevie McKenna and Ian Mccreedy from the North used to come down to Dublin
Discovered this myself for the first time... Thought the intro was getting too long until the sounds started at 2:45. Sent chills down my spine. Then the song kicked in... Pure magic! Thanks MC2/MC3 for introducing me to this music
People dont understand it was about the connection to ourselves and each other, as well as the sound that made this all so fuckin special. So fuckin special it was literally outlawed and broken up..... Because after all....who wants a world of beings lost together in a trance of love and adoration for one equal goal
Ich erinnere mich Gänsehaut am Blauen See in Ratingen. Beim Väth. Lustig ist die Afterhour im Rheingold, und wer war wohl dort der Überraschungs Act der Väth🎉
I was lucky enough to see him on tour when he 1st released this album. Years later when I got into techno, me and my partner at the time, were lucky enough to work with him on a personal level. Mark is a cool dude.
when i heard it from Sven in 1998 i run to the decks and asked him for the title...he said something i didn't quite get and when he switched tracks he gave me the vinyl!!!! One of the best nights of my clubbing life
LTJ Bukem's Muzik was the definitive drum and bass tune, hardcore had Dance Conspiracy Dub War, and techno had this little Beastie! And back in the day I used to drop acid to this sick tune, from the techno Derrik May played to the slower techno of Laurent Garnier would mix, but I loved this spaced out shit, still do, inside me is still a raver and always will be!
^ that drop on that crowd is sick. Only saw LG once & he was truly amazing in ATL. He signed my copy of the 'Labarotorie Mix' CDs & was so gracious. he destroyed that place
So listening to this tune still, absolutely gobsmacked by its sheer brilliance. That intro is so dreamy, not much happens until this delightfully modulated siren sound drifts in, and that seemingly goes on forever too, in fact its 5 minutes more until the beats and bass come in, then suddenly it all comes together and continues to morph with intensity, plenty of squelch but no acid whatsoever. The hook is a simple 2 bar, 6 note affair, and that is basically it. There is not much to this track, in fact it is incredibly simple and rather sparse, relying on nothing but the energy of the musical progression Utterly sheer genius!

He actually wasn't headlining. Headliners are listed first and play last, which was Aphex Twin on that tour package. But it was definitely memorable.

Always special when it was dropped at the Orbit Morley! Still gives me goosebumps! Great days and even greater music.
I miss that place so much. The first time I went in 1991 Joey Beltram was at the controls and it immediately became my favourite club 👌🏻
Orbit was the Omen of England. Best years of my life. Sven, AFX, the birthday party was epic. Just pure tunes. 😊😊😊
Back when trance was just the hippie age of love close relative from techno, food for the body and soul!!!!!
I love this definition... the ONLY trance.

Just a note: It's actually "Gravitational Arch of Io", as in the moon of Jupiter.
It was supposed to be, but whoever pressed it read it as "10" rather than "Io" and thus it has been "10" since, albeit accidentally!

Haven’t heard this since back in the day, back when people made inspirational, uplifting music, simply awesome!
I'm a metalhead at heart,techno got a hold of me and completely changed my life,this is one of the amazing tracks I witnessed in clubs and party's , amazing time 🤘👌💙
Capricorn 20hz
UFO '93: the Cologne radio tower served as a dancing venue. Vapour Space on 160m height was special
Simply the most overlooked work of genius in all techno . universe Laurent garner 1993
Actually may be the best thing in all of music, like, ever!!
+Iain Macdonald or at the very least the best intro ever
Wrong bro. This track was written and produced by Mark GAGE a.k.a. Vapour Space
Phil Minotti I’m saying first time I heard it was on a 1993 Universe DJ set by Laurent Garner, has probably aged better than any other track I’ve ever heard
The Article Don Aw sorry mate. Yes it has had its share of play around the world.
First SONAR in Barcelona (Apolo Club) a guy with a "mallot" sponsored by Roland, Korg on stage LIVE ACT ! Mindblowing
never forget this time in my life
Great track love it I still have the full CD.
My favorite techno track of ALL TIME - gives me goosebumps every time 👏
Best track ever, out of discussion 👍
The big Masterpiece for electronics concept for 1993
one of my all time favorites. it's all ways a pleasure to listen to it. big thumb up!
Manuel Weber same bro
it's like fucking space travel man.
Love it when the Ad kicks in at 3.20 . Needed that, Bastards
94/95 ish, Vapourspace live in Belfast...Richie Hawtin/Plastikman too, and of course David Holmes....That was some night.......I think?!
Jealous..😊
Homer used to play Dublin a lot in the very early 90's. Heard him about 20 times in Sides DC. Absolutely loved when him, Stevie McKenna and Ian Mccreedy from the North used to come down to Dublin
Masterpiece fullstop 🔊🌟❤️
Fuse, '94, with some mates. Having some beers in our student home first. Raving all night long. So eclectic! Nowhere to find on spotify though?
just speechless, discovered this track after forgetting about it. Mindblowing !!! Unbelievable and sooo powerful intro...
When Love, Peace and Unity was famous ... miss those days ...
simply a killer tune
best vinyl ever
masterpiece
Discovered this myself for the first time... Thought the intro was getting too long until the sounds started at 2:45. Sent chills down my spine. Then the song kicked in... Pure magic! Thanks MC2/MC3 for introducing me to this music
Best Techno song ever produced, IMO. 😊
People dont understand it was about the connection to ourselves and each other, as well as the sound that made this all so fuckin special. So fuckin special it was literally outlawed and broken up..... Because after all....who wants a world of beings lost together in a trance of love and adoration for one equal goal
Eclipse - the second phase. Perth, 1993. Still have this on wax. I love life.
This album holds a place in my heart that no other electronic album does. It's a vast
lush Roland slanted analogue world worth getting lost in.
this is what we are missing these days in music production...
Nr. 1 on my "Best ever" list!
thank you Mr Gage
A time when Richie Hawtin was a funny baldy man who put out trance records on his own label.
eargasm up and down and up again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ich erinnere mich Gänsehaut am Blauen See in Ratingen. Beim Väth.
Lustig ist die Afterhour im Rheingold, und wer war wohl dort der Überraschungs Act
der Väth🎉
Wow, i forgot this one an found it. Still intense like the first time i listened it! Thx!
Dear lord.....when that bass kicks in
on the Technovisions 2 compilation along with a load of other great tunes
Took me eleven years to find this track, I just jizzed my pants with excitement!
+Francisco Larios :)
+Francisco Larios I think it took me nearly 20 years, but.... the moment I heard it I was there again :-)
+Stephen Cockett - Exactly the same for me
I was lucky enough to see him on tour when he 1st released this album. Years later when I got into techno, me and my partner at the time, were lucky enough to work with him on a personal level. Mark is a cool dude.
when i heard it from Sven in 1998 i run to the decks and asked him for the title...he said something i didn't quite get and when he switched tracks he gave me the vinyl!!!!
One of the best nights of my clubbing life
Remember Taylor spinning this in Los Angeles 95. Hearing this for my first time, gave me goosebumps. Dope track
Nice!
This piece of music is out of world it bit like Orbital
Early tune in the Orbit48 every Saturday, sometimes a late tune. Always went down like the world was ending in a good way x
Epic Track! Always in my box!
Just timeless
LTJ Bukem's Muzik was the definitive drum and bass tune, hardcore had Dance Conspiracy Dub War, and techno had this little Beastie! And back in the day I used to drop acid to this sick tune, from the techno Derrik May played to the slower techno of Laurent Garnier would mix, but I loved this spaced out shit, still do, inside me is still a raver and always will be!
truth- this sound is truly beloved to my techno soul- up there w/ Teste- "The Wipe' & Underworld - 'Kittens.' spaced out bliss :]
Alexandra Starr Photography nice comment
Funny you say that cause Laurent just played that track at Time Warp 2018 there is even a video of that moment on youtube ;)
^ that drop on that crowd is sick. Only saw LG once & he was truly amazing in ATL. He signed my copy of the 'Labarotorie Mix' CDs & was so gracious. he destroyed that place
So listening to this tune still, absolutely gobsmacked by its sheer brilliance. That intro is so dreamy, not much happens until this delightfully modulated siren sound drifts in, and that seemingly goes on forever too, in fact its 5 minutes more until the beats and bass come in, then suddenly it all comes together and continues to morph with intensity, plenty of squelch but no acid whatsoever. The hook is a simple 2 bar, 6 note affair, and that is basically it. There is not much to this track, in fact it is incredibly simple and rather sparse, relying on nothing but the energy of the musical progression Utterly sheer genius!
Nice Tune :-) Omen Frankfurt :-)
Dave Angel Morley 1993 opening track, remember it like it was yesterday.
Reminds me alwways of Dave Angel, who came to do a set for us opening a new community centre in Wester Hailes, Edinburgh, what a top top guy
He has a few good pals from there, and Calder
Yeah I know, that's why he came ;)
@@Veronacelt he gave out a few t-shirts that night (or another). I had mine for about 2 hours then fell asleep in a flat and never seen again ...
@@SuperBrooxy Just like his leather jacket when he went back to someones house after the gig at the Pyramid
