1990s German Trance Playlist (YouTube)
Chicago had house, Detroit had techno, and with both of those world-changing dance genres managing to resonate so profoundly throughout much of Europe, you just knew that that continent was gonna then take all that inspiration from those two styles and eventually create something of their own that could stick too. And the big genre that they came up with was trance, which in its earliest days, was heavily nurtured like no other in the city of Frankfurt, Germany.
Now, although he's not strictly known as a trance musician or DJ, it's safe to say that trance music would not exist in its current form if it weren't for the legendary Sven Väth. Sven, a native of Frankfurt, co-founded Harthouse Records in the early 90s with some other folks, and that label would then prove integral to both the rise and spread of trance and hard trance. Sven was someone who had spent many a vacation in the party capital of the world, Ibiza, Spain, and he had also been to the tiny, coastal Indian state of Goa as well, where the beach parties there had DJs spinning all sorts of psychedelic tunes in order to induce their revelers into a state of trance 😵.
And Harthouse's first release was a trance record by Sven himself, along with his trusty sidekick Ralf Hildenbeutel, who seemed to have more of the technological knowhow in order to make Sven's ideas into a reality. Together, under the name of Barbarella, they released "My Name Is Barbarella," a 1992 song that sampled a line of dialogue from the French-directed Jane Fonda sci-fi flick that they had taken their own name from, and also sounded deeply inspired by Ibiza as well. As an undisputed early trance classic, the 9-plus minute version of this one is currently sitting at over 163,000 plays across a bunch of different uploads on YouTube, and it's the song that kicks off this little ten-song playlist here.
And right after "My Name Is Barbarella" then came another Harthouse classic: "Spectrum," by Metal Master, which was a duo that Sven Väth was also a part of, along with one of Harthouse's other co-founders, Matthias Hoffmann. The record that this song comes from, Vol. 1, is the one that started to establish Harthouse's harder edge towards trance, as its first Barbarella release was actually a much softer affair. True to the name that they'd given themselves, Sven and Matthias seem to have incorporated some metal guitar into this one, in the form of long, atmospheric, and distorted chords, which when combined with string synths, really manage to cinch the whole song together, making for quite an astounding piece of dance music 🤩. Currently nearing 112,000 plays with its multiple uploads on YouTube.
But while those two tracks are wholly important in the history of trance music, I also bring them up here because Sven Väth's other halves from both of those duos happen to have trance tunes of their own that are excellent too. Ralf Hildenbeutel had a song that's really hard to believe was made all the way back in 1993—because it sounds so much more modern!—called "Hypnoticharmony (Part II)," which he released as Progressive Attack. As its title suggests, this one is indeed hypnotic, as well as deep, and more than any tune in this playlist that precedes it, also feels like a blueprint for what trance would soon become. And across multiple YouTube uploads, it currently has under 18,000 plays.
And Matthias Hoffmann's contribution is simply one of the most breathtaking pieces of trance that I've ever heard in my life. Back in 1994, he released a song as Brainchild called "Symmetry (C-Mix)," which was put out on another label that he and Sven Väth had also helped co-found called Eye Q Records, which was closely associated with Harthouse itself. Then in '99, "Symmetry C" was re-released on Multiply Records, a subsidiary of UK label Telstar, and on it came a whole bunch of remixes, including a "Breakbeat Remix" that was done by the UK's Lange. And this is a tune that currently brings the whole playlist full circle too, as it serves as the final song while also taking us back to trance's origin point of Frankfurt. Currently sitting at over 341,000 YouTube plays across many different uploads.
Now, we're almost done here, but I'd be remiss if I didn't, at the very least, make mention of a few more tracks on this thing, all of which come courtesy of Hardfloor, a duo from Cologne, who, although they'd become more known for their techno prowess, applied their mastery of the Roland TB-303 bass synthesizer (the machine that yields electronic music's famed acid squelch) to some trance tracks, including "Trancescript" and "Into the Nature," both of which appear on their acclaimed 1993 debut album, TB Resuscitation. "Trancescript" is currently at under 85,000 plays and "Into the Nature" has over 130,000. And I also included an excellent remix that they did of Chicago native Robert Armani's "Circus Bells" as well, which currently has over 146,000 plays.
This playlist is ordered as chronologically as possible.
Barbarella - "My Name Is Barbarella" Metal Master - "Spectrum" Hardfloor - "Trancescript" Hardfloor - "Into the Nature" Robert Armani - "Circus Bells (Remixed by Hardfloor)" Marco Zaffarano - "For My Love" Progressive Attack - "Hypnoticharmony (Part II)" Paul van Dyk - "Words (PvD's Words for Love Mix)" Pitchrider - "I Know" Brainchild - "Symmetry C (Lange Breakbeat remix)"
And this playlist is also on YouTube Music too.
So with this opening shot, we start with ten songs that clock in at a total of 75 minutes; a bunch of classic, historic tunes along with some that have lower play counts too.
And next week will not be nearly as much of a cohesive history lesson, but I'm planning on revisiting these German 90s with a slate of favorite techno bangers 👀.
Enjoy!
More to come, eventually. Stay tuned!

1997 London Playlist
Alright, folks, I'm taking a little blog vacation after I post this small late 90s London playlist update. I'll have some fun, nostalgic videos that'll be posted throughout the week, but I'm not gonna be writing anything. So, stay tuned for those.
This week, I added a little bit of much-needed jungle diversity to this 1997 London playlist that I've slowly been building up, with a song called "Searchers," by a guy named Pearl.
Pearl is the alias of Phil Earle, a UK drum n bass and jungle producer who also happens to own a little label called Law & Auder, who were known for putting out these cutting-edge, abstract, and experimentally themed double-disc various artists comps throughout the late 90s and early 2000s. Earle has never made a solo release of his own, despite being around since the early 90s, but he has made tracks for several various artists comps, including ones for his own Law & Auder label.
But "Searchers" doesn't come off of any of his L&A releases; instead, I found it on a quadruple-disc comp that I’ve been posting about for weeks now, from budget UK label Dressed to Kill, called Amberdelic Space II: Angel of Ecstasy, which isn’t very good, overall, but definitely has a solid handful of quality tunes on it, including this one.
And "Searchers" is simply a super underheard, next level journey that, very remarkably, seems to use only jungle breaks to form its beats. That means that, rather than getting a simple beat of a drum in order to serve as a single beat—like how virtually every song in the world with a drum works—you're getting a slice of a jungle break instead. And while that ends up making it such a fantastic track, this one still only has ~1,600 plays on Spotify!
Pearl - "Searchers"
This playlist is also on YouTube and YouTube Music.
So, as it currently stands, we're now at 11 songs that end up totaling 72 minutes on Spotify and 18 songs that total 2 hours and 5 minutes on YouTube. And the YouTube playlist has a bunch of goodies on it that you can't find on Spotify, like a couple stunners from who I think might be the most underrated IDM artist of all time, Freeform, a little downtempo, a little future jazz, a couple trance bangers, a Fatboy Slim re-work of Groove Armada's spectacular "At the River," which blends in some of the drums from Underworld's classic "Born Slippy," and a hard-to-find, blissfully bouncy house remix of Wildchild's "Renegade Master," by the duo of Stretch N' Vern. Simply put, you're not gonna find another playlist out there that's quite like this one. A lot of obscure, forgotten, underground heat here 😊.
And if you want more London playlists by year, check these out too:

Enjoy!
More to come, eventually. Stay tuned!
