Beyond the above, frontline DJs including GERD JANSON and SKATEBÅRD have all shown support and played these cuts. The long-awaited second installment of "The Hidden Beauty Of Dutch House," the 90s Dutch house compilation series whose Vol.1 drew major attention last year, has arrived! The focus is on obscure house music produced between 1994 and 1998. Free-spirited DJ sets at house parties happening in the shadow of the 90s rave movement — that open-minded spirit is reflected here, running from energetic breaks to mood-drenched deep house. Trance-lineage synths and acid lines: a raw document of what made the Dutch house sound so special. A remastered 2LP fully DJ-friendly — you can preview every track from the tracklist!
