May 3, 201015 yr Author Sexy reminds me of watching portuguese music channel Sol Musica back then. It's been extinct since 2004 :( I shall be doing a Scandinavian cheese post soon, with the likes of Antique, Tess, Ice, La Cream, SOAP, Toy Box, E-Type, etc...
May 3, 201015 yr How did no-one mention Gigi D'Agostino? OK he as about 30 songs that all sound the same, but luckily they all sound awesome. My fave is L'Amour Toujours (I'll Fly With You) which was even a small hit in the US... FX0eNuTJBwE This is making me nostalgic too :(
May 3, 201015 yr Author I did mention him at the bottom of my Italo post :P Yeah Sol Musica means Sun Music, though it played all kinds of music. It exposed me to Sylver, Brooklyn Bounce, Jessy, Milk Inc, Ian Van Dahl, Orion Too, Starsplash, Daisy Dee, Rocco, Blank & Jones, Fragma, etc, and started my belgian & german dance craze.
May 3, 201015 yr Oh cool, it sounds a bit like Viva in Germany, at least before it was bought by MTV and it became shit :kink: Here's another awesome Italo Dance track that hit in Spain, though I never understood how there was a group called Mabel who did Bum Bum (which is average tbh) and then a group called Melba that did a song called Mabel, maybe they wanted to create a confusion... ywSOD4JsVSA
May 3, 201015 yr Speaking of VIVA, here's a track I discovered from watching VIVA when we used to have the old Sky dish (with all the German channels) Cosmic Gate - Exploration Of Space ctr-t0LxD9w
May 3, 201015 yr Author Great one :wub: Another italodance track :D Nice and trancey, you can tell Fragma's influence around this era. -0GltlD7gnw
December 30, 201014 yr Author Time to revive this thread :P Last year Blümchen's "Boomerang" was used as the german anti-X-Factor song ala RATM, which was their first hit. But it was "Heut Ist Mein Tag" that made it across the German borders, becoming a moderate hit in Switzerland and Austria. But it was the nordic success that surprised me the most, reaching top10 in Sweden and #1 in Norway back in '99. xMm7gqowAO4 To this day it's one of the few German sung hits to become a european hit.
