Ep 35: This is 90's Tech Trance

The Record Drop – This is 90's Tech Trance

The journey reaches sunrise. After travelling through disco house, club house, hard house, and hard techno, the final chapter of this extended series arrives at the sound that closed countless legendary nights across Europe.

Tech Trance emerged by combining the relentless groove and hypnotic percussion of techno with the emotion, atmosphere, and soaring melodies of trance. It became the soundtrack to the final hours of marathon club nights and outdoor raves.

Featuring legendary artists including Mauro Picotto, Oliver Lieb, Nick Sentience, Marco V, Faithless, Chicane, The Thrillseekers, Gouryella, Cygnus X, L.S.G., Commander Tom, Energy 52, and Moby, this mix captures one of electronic music's most exciting periods, when hard-edged club records slowly evolved into euphoric sunrise anthems.

The final thirty minutes are dedicated entirely to the music that defined the end of a perfect rave — the first sunlight breaking over the horizon, exhausted smiles, arms around friends, and melodies that somehow sounded even bigger after an entire night on the dancefloor.
