Phantasia - Inner Light

Youngster (16), listening to Fun House Radio, in Rotterdam the Netherland. Falling in love with house music and listens every night. One record clearly stands out and he decides to buy the holy Technics SL 1200's.

Next, jumps on the bike and goed to the records store. He buys "Phantasia - Inner Light". Classic, dreamy, spacy, techy etc.

One of the greatest moments in house music and CLASSIC. From Belgium with love. This one is for my funeral.

When rave culture began to spread from the U.K. into Europe, there was a small scene developing within Belgium called New Beat. The producers of New Beat all had embraced rave culture with full impact, as if they new something big was about to happen. In the mist of all this came The Lords Of Acid and Praga Khan who started this underground group called Phantasia. With Lords Of Acid singer Nikki, they wrote this track "Inner Light" which in its original version was an absolute perfect soundtrack for the 1990 E'd up generation. It was based on "Sleeper In Metropolis" by Anne Clarke, but with new lyrics, sounding as if it was written under the influence of an ecstasy trip. This track would become a favorite on the East Coast and remembered as one of the top 10 tracks in the scene during the early 90's. "Violet Skies" was the follow-up and also remains
a favorite. The only problem with the actual song came when it was remixed. Sometimes it is better to leave things alone. This was one of those moments.
