#TBT #9

It's Throwback Thursday so today we're showcasing an absolute classic dance tune that has been around for over 20 years in various forms. Our #TBT tune of the week is 'Set You Free' by N-Trance!


Originally released in 1992 as a white label with only 500 copies pressed this would go on to become an absolute monster of a dance track that would take it's place in the history of the genre. 'Set You Free' was then re-released in 1993 but didn't make the top 40 in the UK, however, as demand for the track grew it was re-issued again in 1995 and hit number 2 in the UK and was a massive hit across Europe and Australia. In 2001 the group and their label, All Around the World, noticed there were a lot of unofficial bootlegs being played in clubs that had updated the sound of the track, they went back into the studio and commissioned a newly remixed version from DJ and producer Rob Searle - 'Set You Free 2001' was born and yet again became a massive hit in the UK and Europe. A harder sounding 2009 edit, cunningly titled 'Set You Free 2009', was also released but couldn't match the commercial success or previous versions.

Grab your airhorn, whistle and your glow sticks and get ready to rave your ass off!



That vocal! Still a TOTAL tune all these years later!
