In November 2018, the Now team took over the " 100 Hits" brand from Demon Music Group, and in 2019 and 2020, the Special Editions series was effectively rested while 24 different Now 100 Hits compilations were issued in very quick succession, until the end of November 2020. A triple-CD only release, Yearbook Extra: The Collectors Edition, is issued a few weeks later; these include lesser known tracks and more songs by big artists included on the main album and they are released only in standard gatefold wallet packaging.From 2003, and until 2010, there was one special edition released each year, covering a decade (80s, 90s and 00s), or a cross section of big hits celebrating the Now series ( Now Decades, Now Years, Now Dance) - however, from 2011, they became much more frequent, and in 2017, there were fifteen different titles released. Elsewhere it's political (Gimme Hope Jo'Anna), danceable (Krush's House Arrest), French (Joe Le Taxi) and even educational ("H-O-U-S-E spells house" – thank you, Beatmasters feat the Cookie Crew). The latter contains a new retro-70s Now logo design and artwork which complements its 80s sister Yearbook series.

The adult me remembered that mid-80s ad as an explosion of animated wonder with a thunderous soundtrack. I'd been looking at photographs taken when I was young, pictures of teenagers hanging out in Crawley on what must have been a Saturday afternoon, and it struck me that my life did not just exist in the present – it also included the past. Originally, the series captured extended 12" mixes of dance hits of the time, but from 1991 onwards, all Now Dance compilations featured 7" edits with only occasional extended versions or mixes included. With omissions and the probable ‘wrong’ versions of songs, it does beg the question, what’s the point in carrying on with these?

For example, the rap material is all up front, while the hard rock tracks are sequestered together at the end. These compilations are very similar to the anniversary series, however, they contain a lower amount of tracks and retailed much cheaper than the former series. The basics – the tune and words – were exactly as I'd remembered, but YouTube told me the visuals were poorly animated, and the music sounded cheap and tinny. Beatmasters featuring the Cookie Crew - Rok Da House: Fourth track in a row with 'house' in the name, great track. As a kid I'd obsessed over that album to such an extent that looking at the tracklist, and seeing the words Joyce Sims: Come Into My Life on the line above Jellybean featuring Elisa Fiorillo: Who Found Who, brought memories surging back.

I'm conscious that some readers, blowing into a paper bag in one hand and clutching a copy of Astral Weeks in the other, may think an album featuring 30 songs by different artists is cheating.

The answer is ‘yes’; the original 30-track compilation is now 28 tracks since Eddy Grant’s ‘Gimme Hope Jo’Anna’ and Whitesnake’s ‘Give Me All Your Love’ are both AWOL.The Beatmasters' Rok Da House is the 1988 7" Remix (aka 7" Latin Beat Mix) as originally featured on Now 11 and that is the most important thing. When it came to listening to those two songs – both unavoidable top 10 hits at the time, but referenced so rarely now they might as well never have existed – I could taste the Um Bongo. Many of these artists have gone on to become global superstars such as Billie Eilish, Shawn Mendes, Walk The Moon, Maggie Rogers, Rae Sremmurd, Zara Larsson, Jacob Whitesides, and Tate McRae.
