If you were in Ibiza any time in the late 90s, the chances are that you would have spent part of your evening/morning dancing to music produced by Nick Bracegirdle – aka Chicane. Songs like Offshore, Sunstroke and Saltwater beamed out from every beach bar, sound system and hotel balcony, a blissedout soundtrack of Balearic beats and addictive hooks.
Mac Pro with very big SSDs running an Intel Core i5. (“Not current, but just about clinging on. Will need to be upgraded very soon.”)
These were high times for dance music. The superclubs were doing brisk business, musicmaking technology was becoming affordable and trance was about to conquer Europe. For the next five or six years, the charts were packed with quality tunes like Three Drives On A Vinyl’s Greece 2000, Energy 52’s Café del Mar and Binary Finary’s 1998. And Offshore, of course!
