DJ Jurgen ft. Alice Deejay - Better of alone ...very nice remix by Signum!

One of the best trance tracks in history was made in such simple way...proof it was destined to be made.

This is why Ron is one of my favorite producer. Gamemaster Remix is still one of my favorite Signum remix!

The single here in Australia was huge when it was released.

Ah man, the Signum remix of ATB's 9PM has to be one of my favourites - That breakdown never fails to give me goosebumps, even over two decades later!

Legend. World class producer.

The first time I heard this good track was at the Chunnel Club at Vauxhall London, great memories ✨👌

05:36 If I'm not mistaken, in the movie Kevin and Perry Go Large, Coming on Strong (Bo Bellow vs. Euphoriah Remix) was played. Just a fun fact I guess.

Signum has in the early years that classic bouncy sound my favourite remixes by signum definitely web loving times and Delirium truly masterpieces.

He has that cold and finest sound ... Definitely one of the trance master's. Excellent interviews. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Awesome interview being able to put a face to the hit, its one of my most favourite tracks i travelled the uk ultravegas gatecrasher godskitchen cream panache home ministry of sound the Chunnel leeds love parade 2000, 3 x berlin love parades, 2 tidy Weekenders 9 Southport Weekenders Lowestoft..... i had this feeling comin on strong and i definitely got around.... 1998 to 2004 greatest hard house times.❤❤❤❤❤

Ascension - Someone (Signum Vocal Mix) my favourite signum remix, hard to choose though as Ron's production's are always top quality, What Ya Got 4 Me was the first one I heard due to me listening to Tidy Trax, been a fan ever since

Will always be my favourite producers/producer. This to me is the best trance track ever made!

Absolutely loved Signum growing up as a teenager. They had their own unique sound and glad he said that the ‘Gamemaster’ remix was his fave-that was mine too! Other tunes of theirs which were also great “Take You There” & “Forever” under Ron Hagen & Pascal M. Great interview, Twan!

This track is by far one of my favourite tracks of all time. Gatecrasher republic 1 in Leeds, when you here that coming in, your going to a new level. 😃😃

Still think this is an amazing track and encompasses everything I loved about the period.

The Bo Bellow vs. Euphoriah Remix (i.e. the Kevin & Perry version) is the best one, so much energy and I love the build to the big drop.

Australia loves this track!!!! Also, it'd be good if you could also please interview Scott Mac about these projects.

Thank you! And unfortunately I don't see that happen (or at least not anytime soon....). Since Muzikxpress is "just" a hobby for me and since advertising revenue on KZread isn't much if you don't get millions of views, I simply don't enough budget for trips abroad. That means I can only do interviews with people who live nearby where I am based (in the south of The Netherlands) or with people who visit The Netherlands for gigs or for example the Amsterdam Dance Event. I haven't seen Scott Mac at a gig here in The Netherlands in ages, so not even sure if he's still active as a touring DJ. The little money I make with the channel all goes back into equipment or travel costs (gas, parking etc). Thanks for your understanding!

At the time I was resident dj for escape Amsterdam also regular Friday night guest at the infamous IT nightclub in Amsterdam . Also doing live mixes on radio 538 party night with van diepen . I was playing a minimum of five gigs a weekend throughout Holland and pushed coming on strong and what you got for me to the maximum . The months and years following where of the scale for all of us and can I say it was a absolute pleasure to work with the original SIGNUM guys and send only ❤️ to them and wish them well . Mac

This guy is a Legend for me! 25 years in Trance! Most of his productions, remixes and cooperations were really exceptional. Thanks for another great interview Twan! You're kind of realizing my dreams by interviewing people who gave their heart to Trance.

There is more to this than meets the eye. Reminds me of Ebenezer Goode.

Golden record. Needed to search for it when i first heard it.

5 days, genius level production.

I've seen Signum (both Ron and Pascal) live a lot of times in northern Spain (which is a rare achievement here for international DJs, except for Randy Katana) and they were always cool and very nice guys to the audience. My favourite trance track of all times, Jewelry by nature, is by them too.

Dropped Ron back to the airport after a gig once, had a good chat about the track and even signed my copy of it. Said he never intended to be a DJ just a producer his career went from there. Such a down to earth guy!

I just found out they sampled CHERYL PEPSII RILEY vocals track 'Ain't No Way - Jazz House Overhaul' , friggin AWESOME, NUFF RESPEKT !!!!!!!!!!!

Such a great tune! very good music was made in that years.

Love it. The signum remix of Katana Silence, to this day, is one of my all time favourites. Would love a DJPC - inssomniak interview at some point. 🤞👍🙂

Dont forget their track “Forever” under Ron Hagen and Pascal F. Awesome track too!!

Classic tune. So F good

Great artist and im definetly excited about his move to Progressive🔥 great job as always

Brilliant ❤️

What a nice guy I like him 👍

Ron played Gamemaster in dublin, last gig I was at before lockdown, was unreal. :)

Song was massive in South Africa aswell. I have a vinyl copy signed by Scott Mac. It is such a good song

A nice interview. I have always liked the vocals on this tune. They sound cool. I didn't know they were sampled. A Lange and Signum collab sounds so tasty. Hope it happens.

I've always thought that the tracks, "what ya got 4 me, Coming on Strong and 'Lost Witnesses' Happiness Happening" used the same progression but used different sounds. If you play all 3 tracks on the piano, they all sound the same.

Interesting interview but what is the meaning of the lyrics? Maybe Ron doesn't even know. Is 'come on strong' a reference to feeling high, or to being forward? And is 'can't get around' about getting around an obstacle or getting around like the Beach Boys? None really makes sense to me. Edit: I suspect the lyrics that come up on the web are wrong.

I found the sample at whosampled. It's at 2.24 in the song 'Ain't No Way - Jazz House Overhaul' by Cheryl Pepsii Riley. There are no official lyrics but it sounds to me like, "I know I may appear to come on strong, [but if you take your chance on me, oh] you can't get around." Obviously it can be interpreted in a trance music scene way not intended in the original. I now like to interpret it... The scene itself is overwhelming at first, it 'comes on strong', but if you give it a chance, you won't be able to be disloyal to it. @@muzikxpress
