I remember that I watched the video clip for the first time on MTV at my friend's apartment. After the video was over, we looked at each other, and our faces were surprised. Because we had never heard a music like this and seen a video clip like this... it was completely unique and ahead of its time. In my opinion, it was a real pioneer of electro house genre and shaped the mid-2000s electronic music industry. After 20 years, I still find the track fresh and unique.

I'm 42 years old and SATISFACTION, Sound Of San Fransisco and First Time (offernism Maya) are my best songs about 20 years. I definitely listen to these songs every week because they still make me feel like I'm in my 20s at this age :)

One of those rare songs that is an actual game changer. I remember being at a little underground electroclash club and hearing this for the first time. Within 30 seconds I was at the DJ booth demanding to know what the song was. I was fairly "with it" at the time, but had obviously never heard of Benny Benassi. Within a few weeks, he was on Top of the Pops and EVERYONE knew his name.

Damn. This song got me into electronic music. I can say that as a DJ who has been working on my craft for 15 years, this single song was the reason why I do what I do now

I was 9 years old when I first heard this. we were having a sleepover at the pool and it played on the radio, totally blew my little mind. when it finished I asked for it to play again and they told me it was the radio but I never forgot that tune. that was 20 years ago 🥲

What a masterpiece and what a legend! Satisfaction,Illusion,Hit my heart,Every single day.

imagine when you have a traffic jam in front of your building you can choose between following options A) start being frustrated B) catch an idea for a dance track that is a world wide hit

I can't imagine my dj sets without this iconic track

This song really changed music.

I still have this on vinyl from when I first bought it in 2002. Timeless classic and one of the most clever music videos ever made if you look beyond the distractions 😁.

Been a complete electronic head since 1998. Never loved this song but there’s no question it was massive and it’s legendary

Crazy 20 years ! 🤯 I discovered this track at the CD listening stations of Barns & Noble , of all places 😂

This song was EVERYWHERE back in the early and mid 2000's. Instant classic from the first time I heard it.

This was sent to me by an older sister of a friend via msn in the early/ mid-2000s. One of the first electronic music tunes I ever heard, instantly hooked. Still incredible.

Satisfaction still feels like a fresh tune 20 years on! I remember the first time I heard this song was a Saturday morning sat in my dad's car listening to the radio, as Peat Tong came on to introduce the track, "this is one to really rattle your rib cage" he said - it blew my tiny mind 🙌

2002, 2012, 2022 and we will still gonna want it in 2042 !

Benassi started my dance music obsession more of a trance fan now but I never forget how Benassi started it all for me

The tune and bass are just unique! Immediately recognizable and a forever classic of dance and trance. It can be remixed every 20 years!

a timeless classic

Several of the best dj's of 2000 coming from Italy...a generation of talented djs

Yes satisfaction is nice. But for me, ''Love is gonna save us'' and ''Illusion'' are legends. Benny Benassi is proof that such legendary things can be done with such simple sounds.

Definately one of those classic dance tracks that STUCK with me. Everyone's waxing nostalgic about their 00's club days but i was nine, listening to sounds that were so foreign to the classic rock my parents played.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM, Italian vibes&talent.

This made me feel extra old. Could've sworn this song blew up in the 2010's time flies.

I saw him at spring awakening in soldier field in 2012 right before skrillex's set. He dropped cinema better in my opinion. I love how he has such a heavy Italian accent, yet the guy has some of the smuttiest songs in English, I love it.

I still remember listing the first time to this unique sound. It was in a media store in 2003. There were 10 TV‘s playing the same tv channel - VIVA (German Music TV). And the video was played and the sound was really quiet. So I searched for a remote to turn up the volume. One employee there thought that I was interested in the TV😂. So he started telling me some about that machine. And I was just answering : Please be quiet. I wanna listen.😅 So I watched the song till the end to see who it was. Later I bought the album and went to Benny Benassi‘s live show in Hamburg Reeperbahn. In my opinion it changed a lot about the house music sound. Remixes from Global Deejays, Fedde le Grand and others took that influence in their later hits and it was viral - all over in every disco. For maybe 3-5 years… Legendary

Still loving this tune 20 years later in 2023. Even all the remixes of this tune is equally great.

When I turned 18, I moved south to Los Angeles. It was a 12 hour drive. I stopped in Berkeley and went to Amoeba to get a couple cds for the drive. I got a lot of industrial stuff and this album was the one thing that was vastly different. I remember putting it on first and not taking it out of the player for the rest of the drive that night. The whole album is great. I do love the tracks "Let It Be" and "I love my Sex" the most though. Good memories.

My granddad used to blast this when I was 4. Absolute banger. Good times.

Timeless Classic! Still in the playlist! buy the original album "Hypnotica" cassette in back in 2002. Still is my collection. His sound be completely different than others. Real hypnotic tech! He is a legend who i still listening!

There is no modern bass music without this song period

If "Love Don't Let Me Go* introduced me to the sound of house music, then "Satisfaction" solidified my complete and utter obsession with it for years to come. This track changed my life. My entire undergrad at Trent University was done to this.

As a black Hispanic american DJ, why do I feel jaded when the Brits take a house/techno song to new heights? Need to work on that on my end, since black music created House. Anyhoot - great video and great origin story - I remember this at the clubs in 2003 - aways pumped!!

Benny Benassi legend

hate it or love but that song defined the sound of that decade....And remains an absolute banger to this day.

Bought the CD back in 2023 for a house party. Then our lives were changed forever.

I will never forget the first time I heard this song haha, my friend told me he had the coolest track ever its going to blow my mind and it indeed blew my mind 😂 never underestimate the homies goods lol

Grazie, Benni! This track turned me from "intensive-hardcore-metalhead" to .. "Well.. I like Dance, too!"

Benny Benassi ❤❤❤

Benny, if you can read this, this song is definitely the main song of my childhood. I was born in 94 and I was a child when I heard this bass and drums. Luv u man

I was in Ibiza when this was the song of year there It was everywhere

Benni is a great guy ! very humble - met him many times . Legend !

I simply love Benny. He is legend and he knows that but you can see how humble and purehearted this guy is. He carved his way into dance music pantheon, he kept innovating and merging new things into his sets up to this day. His winter music conference mixes from 2009-2011 are pure gold, I remember listening to them and how he essentially lost his voice shouting with the crowd and how happy he was. Also, Alle's credited as songwriter, this makes my happy somehow. Thanks Benny.

I payed to set it up as a monophonic ringtone on my siemens cell phone 😊

shortly before this song was released here in canada i dj'd a "rave" in alberta canada with benny benassi.. i say with because i was second on the list & he was last. for the first time i actually stayed instead of heading to the next gig right away. he played this song, it blew my mind because i was such a fan of the acidy sound (mostly trance) it wasnt until months later, that i saw this video on bpmtv & much music that i remembered this song.. the night after flying back i was out with my mates (a tues night) & i was humming the riff over & over & over.. they all told me shut up & either make it a song or get lost (not really) so i explained to them that i had heard it while "working" & it stuck in my head, when it was released i played it for them & they were mind blown i had "worked" with the artist (even tho they had only just heard his name). great memories with a great track! even the new remixes are deadly, especially the hardwell & maddix remix.. dirty, acidy & raw just like the original was

I will never forget how much I loved not only satisfaction but the whole album and the tons of remixes in the style of satisfaction to anything at that period. Great times!

I remember 2002~2003 in Seoul club scene, after this song came on, everyone started shaking their hips.

Discovered Satisfaction in middle school back in 2007. This track was one of the few that was a launchpad for my love into electronic music. Kids thought I was weird for listening to this kind of music back then, but look at where we are now

The epic club anthem until now.

This was released when the electro house was about to pop and it’s great tune. Not too commercial.

Atemporal classic! So simply yet so modern

Amazing story! Love it💜

Wow the fact this song was inspired by car honks 😂 I love it 😂 😍

I love learning about the construction of a song! So interesting. AFROJACK remix from 10 years ago is quite good too ! Thanks for that interview, i love this song

first time i heard this song, i was probably 16 or 17 but as a young kid who only listened to heavy rock music, this is one of the songs that introduced me to other genres that i still listen to this day. i am 32 right now.

The first party i ever joined they played his tracks, everybody goes nuts! Was the initial point for my musical journey, thanks man!

I think many can agree that accidentals in music production is something amazing to happen.
