N-Trance music biography continued...

in 1990. Other members included Kelly Llorenna, Rachel McFarlane and Richard Lyte (Ricardo Da Force). The group's early demos did not make much of an impression and they had a bad experience with their first label, but N-Trance broke through when it signed with All Around the World, and released "Set You Free" in early 1993. The new single and the group's theatrical live performances, which included dancers and flame-throwers, as well as new vocalist Kelly Llorenna and rapper T-1K, propelled N-Trance to prominence in the European dance scene. When the tune was re-released in 1995, it reached number 2 on the UK chart, and high positions on other European charts. The group recorded their first full-length album, Electronic Pleasure, in November 1995, which featured seven of the group's ever-expanding roster of vocalists and musicians such as Vinny Burns and Snake Davis. Similarly, N-Trance's musical range expanded, embracing rap, disco and other styles in their music-making. The group's next single, a cover of the Bee Gees hit "Stayin' Alive", was not only a huge international hit, but also featured a vocalist who would help define N-Trance's sound in the future, Ricardo Da Force, formerly rapper with The KLF. Upon the tune's release in the UK, it debuted at number 2, and internationally it became one of the biggest UK exports of 1995, reaching number 1 in Australia and being top 5 on a number of European charts. With this effort, N-Trance had officially arrived.



N-Trance's second full-length album, Happy Hour, arrived in 1999, with hit singles including a cover of Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" and Ottawan's "D.I.S.C.O.". A best of album entitled The Best of N-Trance 1992-2002 was released in early 2001, backed by a trance remix of "Set You Free" which reached number 7 in October of that year. In 2003, N-Trance began working on a new album, but that was aborted. In 2007, they picked up where they had left off with a reinvigorated lineup. The new album is scheduled to come out in 2009. N-Trance's huge fan base can hardly wait.
