Roger Goode - In The Beginning Again

dancemania, Apr 21, 2006

In 2002 South African born artist and producer Roger Goode teamed up with Tasha Baxter, who’s also from South Africa. Tasha is a female singer, songwriter, producer, musician, and besides that she’s a sound engineer as well. The track they wrote together got ‘In The Beginning’ as the title.

When Tsunami’s A manager Joeri Lodders was on the music fair ‘Midem’ in Cannes (France) he received a demo CD with tracks of a small South African record label. The last track on that CD was a demo, which had some dreamy vocals on it. Joeri went to Ferry with the CD and he liked the track a lot as well. So they decided to sign the track for the Tsunami label. Ferry took care of the remix, with the amazing bassline and he also wrote some parts of the music for this track. Because Ferry also wrote some things for this track, the title was changed of ‘In The Beginning’ to ‘In The Beginning Again’.

When Ferry’s remix was finished, it was send out to a few DJ’s on promo. Pete Tong replied immediately that he wanted to sign it on his ‘Double F Double R’ label. After that it was signed to Pete’s label (and some other labels as well), there were a lot of people who were asked to do a remix of the track. So there are remixes available from artists like Gabriel & Dresden, The Scumfrog, Chew-Fu Phat, Tom Middleton, Ferry Corsten to name a few.

The video of the track was shot in South Africa, during the same period as the video for Ferry’s own track ‘Punk’. This video is available on some of the CD Maxi releases of the track.
