Darude’s ‘Sandstorm’, originally released in 1999, remains one of dance music’s most recognisable tracks 25 years later.
“It went viral, before viral was a thing”, Darude reflects when asked about the legacy of ‘Sandstorm’; from its early chart success and Top of the Pops glory, to its seemingly never-ending social media attention and cult following of today.
Electronic music history is rich with unforgettable and timeless classics. In our series, DJ Mag explores the tales behind some of the world’s favourite dance tracks, told by the people that made them.
