10 years ago, Reactivate was probably the hottest underground dance music CD series in the World; consecutively pioneering the sound of European techno, trance and hard house to enthusiastic ravers and their respective scenes. Over its staggering 10 year tenure as the leading hard, underground club music brand it notched up 18 volumes and three best of?s. Not bad for a concept that was largely ignored by the media at the time. Now, with the nineties firmly in the rear view mirror, there has begun wanton nostalgic sampling of Belgian rave records on electro tracks, vintage trance included in cool dj sets and constant updating and reissuing of seminal classics on the hard dance scene. Therefore the time has now come to revisit 2 musical masterpieces that have not been available for 8 years but were essential kit for anyone with a weekend to obliterate and a fun-packed agenda in 1996! "Reactivate 10 snappycracklepoptechno" arrived when there was an unprecedented demand for more of the same material and the album was released 22nd May 1995 to much applause. It charted strongly in the UK compilation chart at 14 and held its position among the TV marketing led projects of the day. The album fully accessed the new European trance sound and created a template that satisfied its rave, club, gay and Goa trance followings.
