Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! In the next few weeks you can expect some more interviews btw! Chicane, Gabriel & Dresden, Solarstone and.... I managed to speak to Jean-Michel Jarre a bit as well!
muzikxpress amazing interview mate. Any plans of doing the same with Airwave? With such a massive catalogue like Mike I'm certain he will have lot to share as well.
Everyone gets goosebumps hearing this track, doesn't matter u more into techno, trance, house etc. When people hear it they go like "wtf" then their body starts moving. Amazing feeling every time I hear this sound. Even 20 years after, still love it like I did the first time. This track will bring goosebumps to young generations as well after we long gone I suppose.
I think it's almost 20 years ago since I heard this track for the first time. It was in a small, dark, sweaty venue. It made me shiver. From my lower back, going up my arms and my neck, going to my forehead, I just felt this tingling sensation going allover the place. Everytime I hear it again, I'm having a flashback to that specific moment. The atmosphere, the bass, the flashing lights, the feeling... For me it's still way beyond goosbumps. And just for the record, I wasn't drugged in any kind of way. I wasn't even into trance, but it just caught me.
Ik luister dit nummer al velen jaren werkelijk waar wekelijks! MEESTERWERK! Ik mag mezelf gelukkig prijzen dat ik op stap ging in de tijd dat deze muziek werd gedraaid. Heb als Nederlander heel heel veel Belgische discotheken gezien in de jaren maar er was er voor mij 1 de aller aller beste, de Cherry Moon!!! Daar konden zelfs de wilde zondagnachten van de Zillion niet tegen op voor mij ook al had dat ook wel wat die optredens 😉, degene die die shows hebben gezien snappen mij
Just goes to show if you have originality and a truly spot on production.. No one even tries to attempt a remix. That is what makes a true anthem. This track is why I started to get into Trance. 20 years later, and I'm still lost in the music..
the biggest trance producer of all time. there are several others up there with him, but he has the most beautiful melodies combined with the most hypnotic rhythms...
First seen him dj in scotland and at a new year gig evertime he came back i was there love his music im 48 now and he still blows my mind trance family will never go away
M.I.K.E Push is a true legend to trance, back in the late 90's your music brought people from all walks of life onto the dancefloor and you brought us all together and took away all our problems in life, you set us free😀😛😇🌍♥️. Another reason why you're a true legend is because you create music from your soul and I can hear that passion.
This main is a fucking genius. His sound is amazing. I can listen to his tracks forever. Every remix he does beats the original. Strange World 2000 is his best.
He seems like such a nice and genuine guy. I saw him live at dreamstate 2016. There was only a handful of us watching him. So many people missed out on such an intimate and great experience. Mike and I were pointing finger guns at each other the entire set
Sounds like you were there for the real music & not too just stand there with a phone in your hand!...& for that I salute you! Gun fingers & fist pumping all the way! I’m yet to meet M.I.K.E but he’s on my list along with airwave (Laurent veronnez) glad to hear reacted with crowd 👌🏼
Geez. We are the same age, yet I was an e-tard when this track blew up the dance floor. Energy 52, PvD... but this is the definitive trance track that no other could emulate.
I will always remember the first I heard this track I was in the middle of the dancefloor at 8 am in the legendary club Turnmills 'Trade' party in London , this sound was a shock, and even 20 years later I still have goosebumps when I hear the first seconds of this massive tune, this masterpiece is a whole journey into another world. Thanks #PUSH.
Fun fact: The audience you hear on Tiësto’s opening of Innercity 2000, is not the audience of Innercity 2000. It’s actually a part of the Universal Nation vinyl track itself (the live @ Club Illusion version of Universal Nation).
I like Mike’s music so much it is almost under my skin. There is something magical about his talent and passion for his work. After this video, I even like him as a person. I feel grateful to him and grateful for your interview, Twan.
Agree with most of these but think. It’s a tough one for me between strange world and legacy! Both mind blowing trance! Till We Meet again should be up there!
wow! Not only a good interview but another top bloke! Perhaps it is me but I expected many of these interviews to be with arrogant so-and-so with little time for others. But they have all come across as good people thus far! Perhaps Ben Liebrand summed it up in one of your vlogs to paraphrase away from the decks they are normal, nice people l
He has unfinished business with Ferry... get it finished. Should be amazing. Looking forward to the new Push album. Luckily I have Universal Nation on vinyl. Wohooo
That quick vocal shout sample is the one of the best samples in the world 😂 Ferry Corsten played this track at Creamfields many years ago and it went dowm!! 🤙🏼 Timeless
Always great interviews, with the heavy weights of dance music! Mike seems such a down to earth guy, one of my all time favourite producers,and greatest labels bonzai! Everything on Bonzai, xtc and tripomatic are out of this world. Virtua Trancer, Overtone, the blackmaster, plastic boy, the list goes on with the alias’ Mike has worked under. Would like to thank mike for all of the amazing music he has produced and all the fond memories I have clubbing to and mixing his music 👍
Mike Dierickx is the king of progressive. He has the absolute best and most complete catalog from the golden era of trance. 1994-2010 IMHO. No other producer or DJ except for maybe Corsten can compare to his releases, his productions, group collabs and remixes under a myriad of aliases during that period.
I was just about to mention Laurent there until I read the replies haha!...has there ever been any work/colab with these Belgian trance beasts? I wonder if there friends at all...intrigued! Also I agree with your comment 🙏🏼 veronnez/dierickx/lieb top 3 for me!
This is fascinating, Mike made his Universal Nation in 4 hours and it is totally legendary and revolutionary top trance anthem to this day, timeless, i remember first time hearing that in 1998 and it was like WHOAAA this is really huge, i had goosebumps and i felt euphoric warmth in my spinal cord, i still remember that moment like it was just yesterday.
Mike you dont know how BIG this TRACK was in Miami when it came out!! George Acosta would blow up night clubs with it and David Padilla too! Congrats on your NEW album!
When I knew trance back in 2002 I listened so much Push, M.i.k.e. and Plastic Boy tracks. He has tons of classics. Now I want an interview with the other big guy from Bonzai, Twann: Airwave (Laurent Veronnez)! Great video, good work!
One of the few original trance producers who hasn't abandoned trance and who is still making and performing trance! Definitely a legend of the genre. He is truly so prolific and really has such lasting resilience and relevance. One of my favorite of his tracks is "Silver Bath"
Great comment & I couldn’t agree with you anymore. Dierickx & veronnez are my 2 favourite trance producers and absolute titans to the trance genre. Silver bath was epic, so driven & progressive 🙏🏼
Legendary producer and nice guy. I'm remembering when M.I.K.E. opened me the door of Blitz records shop / Bonzaï Studios at Antwerp when I was young, great time!
Lo escuché por primera vez en 1999 en argentina buenos aires me voló la cabeza y no sabía el estilo de música lo tenía ahí pero el trance no era muy conocido en ese entonces
Soo great to watch this and Mike too also, this is a true and total classic OBVIOUSLY, I've never heard this guy so this is an eye-opener for me, soo many classics this guy has done, beautiful!
So that's where the name Push came from! Always wanted to know where all his aliases came from. I swear that guy has more aliases than most producers have releases. Also by sheer coincidence I picked up a(nother) copy of this a couple of weeks ago haha.
Universal Nation was the song wich made me into Trance. I love it, and I will never forget the feeling when I heard it for first time. Thank you for all these experiences Mike!
I first heard this tune in cream in Liverpool back in 1999 when seb fontaine was resident, still a fantastic track along with many others producer's where on fire back then it was just hit after hit.
So, these guys were starting their office day at 1:00 PM, have a coffe, and then go to the studio to compose some trance songs surrounded by a lot of hardware synths. I WANT THE SAME FUCKING JOB !!!!!
Very nice interview, Twan! I love how we all keep coming back to this track. There’s something magical about it. It’s always great to hear Mike talk about it, too.
Bedankt Twan, wat een vette content! Niets minder dan dance-geschiedschrijving. Zoveel mooie verhalen die anders nooit het grote publiek hadden bereikt. Ga zo door!
No wonder he is one of my idols! Followed him since he played Universal Nation live in Extreme club Affligem... after that and many years later visited a gig in Eden Ibiza 2019 and met this nice Guy afterwards outside the club As fellow Belgians he joined us on a picture. He is a master in music and a real friendly guy Go M.I.K.E.!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💪💪💪💪💪💪
Great interview as always. I love that tune so much. Every Sunday at Sunnyside Up it would be played by Darren Pearce. Brilliant tune and so many great memories.
Deffo one of my favourite tunes ever the first time I heard this tune the hairs just stood straight up I love it as much now as I did back then always blasting out at parties great memories for sure \0/\0/\0/
Thanks a lot Maciano! Working on new interviews for 2020 already and hopefully there will be a new interview with M.I.K.E. about another classic he did ;-) If you check my Facebook page you can already see which interviews you can expect in the next few weeks :) facebook.com/muzikxpress
You are doing a amazing job by doing these quoting about all these tunes ! I know Push is well know worldwide for that one, though he also made various collaborations with Yves Deruyter, but this is completely a another way... The universal nation contains also a very epic breakdown at the middle of the track and that's personally my favorite moment of the Original Mix. There are also very good remixed composed for example by Ferry Corsten released on Inferno in 1999. I like also his good touch from Ferry Corsten. Good producer this one :) Finally, Universal Nation's melody also inspirated some others tunes worldwide such as the Omega Nine's Universal Nation, but this is a harder trance tune. Love it also but force to M.I.K.E. Push, he never failed to surprise us. Good luck also to all the Belgians Trance producers 👍👍👍👍👍
That one is on the wish list, but I can only do interviews with people that live near me or people that are visiting for shows / events, so that’s a bit of a problem lately. So for now I focus on people who live in The Netherlands or people that are just across the border (and of course those people I ask need to be up for it as well).
This guy recently suported my track on his club elite. I was so happy bcs this is the guy who is one of my idols since Bonzai days - His Extreme Trax project with Yves Deruyter and Laurent Veronnez

This guy is the greatest trance producer in history imo I'd love to meet him and buy him a beer for giving me hope as a teenager.
His songs are amazing ♥️
Till we meet again....one if the best trance songs ever
It's a very emotional sounding tune, One of the best tracks.
@@scottkirkland6139 beautiful tribute to Marino Stephano
Man, this track still literally gives me goosebumps after all these years! A true classic!
All of his music is pretty awesome

@@muzikxpress Can't say I'd disagree with that idea!
Iow3freq music working on it, hopefully early 2020!

universal nation must be one of the best trance tunes ever as mike says leave it as it is
This main is a fucking genius. His sound is amazing. I can listen to his tracks forever. Every remix he does beats the original. Strange World 2000 is his best.
Was für ein geiles Brett. Universal Nation darf auf keiner Trance Classics Party fehlen.
Agreed!!!
Ja, ein geiles Brett 😂😂😂😎😎😎😎😎😎

I saw him as a guest on the Thrillseekers's home sets a couple of yrs ago. Seemed really nice!
Four hours on a Wednesday afternoon, just went in the studio and vibed it. Lol, what a legend
So cool right? Haha
Make no mistake, Skydive mixed into Universal Nation is quite simply the most special thing in the wonderful word of music.

Thank you Artyom!! I recently sat down with another Bonzai legend for an interview, hope to have that one online asap as well ;-)
The JP-8000 is a legendary synthesizer in the history of Trance music. Can’t imagine how many main chords came out from this machine.
Haha yes, very true! Ferry Corsten also used it for " Out Of The Blue" back in 1998.
Thanks Inferno Records for bringing Push into the UK!
My Push Top 5
1. Strange World (2000 remake)✌
2. The legacy👌
3. Universal Nation😎
4. Journey of Life😌
5. Electric Eclipse💪
Agree with most of these but think. It’s a tough one for me between strange world and legacy! Both mind blowing trance! Till We Meet again should be up there!
He has many more good ones by the alias “plastic boy”
turn out the lights too, what a tune
Sunrise at Palamos is a beautiful piece of music
Absolutely my favourite also...Sunrise at Palamos...Silver Bath also right up there :)
WTF? Creating history in just 4 h? Awesome...
