To confirm your suspicion, if you drop the URL for the 2007 Tranceluv Dreamscape video into the Wayback Machine, you can see that in 2007 & 2008, the title read "Trance - Ravers Fantasy". Sure enough, when looking up a song labeled "Tune Up - Ravers Fantasy", you get a song that's around 3:30 long.
I’ve actually heard this song many times used in ytps back when I first joined UA-cam in 2015 along with other trending songs made in that exact year and I always wondered what the heck was the song
I'm a rave music nerd and this theory makes more sense after what you said. "Raver's Fantasy" was a popular track and if "Tranceluv" liked trance music, he would've 100% known about that song. Kind of didn't want to believe it at first because it was very common for DJs to hold onto tracks long before an official release. It was also common to hear unreleased tracks in CD mixes or tapes ahead of their release, but they would rarely play the full track.
this is 100% true. there's even a low quality mirror of this video on youtube uploaded by a channel called "ponclas" named "TRANCE - REVERS FANTASY" I just checked a webarchive snapshot from 2009 and in the description of that original video it literally says "Get this song for FREE from audioswap: *link* Artist: 009 Sound System Song: Dreamscape"
I absolutely remember getting my video muted in 2009 because of copyrighted music, and replacing it with dreamscape because it was the first song listed in the UA-cam music library.
Happened to my videos to. I chose this song because it was the only house / dance / electro whatever you wanna call it music there was to chose from. All the other songs were lame. 😅

Oh man. I went down this rabbit hole last year, trying to investigate 009 Sound System. I found it all to be much more... ephemeral than I expected. There was so little info to find. The info you could find was, at best, "odd". Like, remarkably odd. Even spiritual. Perhaps most intriguing of all was how it felt like no else cared. I mean, yeah, we all appreciate it for its time on UA-cam. But, it seems like it faded into an almost unbelievable obscurity. By the way, could these songs have been any more fitting for that era? The XP, Vista, and Windows 7 era, with the not-dead-yet 2000s "clean" aesthetic all fit so perfectly with the seemingly timeless "Dreamscape" (and other 009 songs). For a moment, it just all felt so right.
I would put it on a transitional era, where Windows Vista was out by a few years and Windows 7 was barely out in very late 2009 but most PCs still ran Windows XP. Same with the internet, from the decentralized ways to communicate through forums and websites that still existed then to the age of social media and mobile which was rapidly growing.

I remember waking up one morning in the 5th grade and half of my uploads were muted due to copyright issues, but, I also had the option to replace the entire audio track with a song from their music library. The first song was Dreamscape, literally because it began with "009", but what's even more is that UA-cam made this an automated process at some point down the line, so a lot of uploads from back then just had Dreamscape in the background WITHOUT any user input. I personally just took down everything because I was approaching my preteens and started to become self-conscious about everything I did. But in terms of UA-cam and Dreamscape? There was quite literally a point where one out of every three videos had been audioswapped due to the automatic changes.
My introduction to 009 Sound System was back in 2010 when I was watching a video of a Koenigsegg CCR and a Lamborghini Murciélago driving at night with Trinity playing in the background. Brings back a lot of memories.
I will forever remember this one video where someone made a stunt montage of jumping off Mount Chilliad with different vehicles in GTA San Andreas, for the full length of Dreamscape. 2007-2011 UA-cam was something else. You really just had to be there. This is the first video I've seen from you. For some reason the algorithm decided that I should see an hour old upload from a channel I've never watched, but hey, they won the gamble. I actually love this song, despite it reminding me of notepad and Windows XP. I don't know if you usually upload content related to internet nostalgia, but I'd love to see more.
I’m happy I was there I remember watching a lot of old GTA San Andreas video’s with the song playing back then, And this is not nostalgia speaking UA-cam and the internet truly was better back then. I’m currently 23 about to be 24 in a few days my birthday is soon but man I can’t help but feel old while also not being old yet. I will forever wish I could go back but at least I can die of old age flexing on every new gen saying you weren’t there for this.
In case you were not aware, Mr Perls has been a ghost producer in EDM for a few years, now. There are a couple of Penny and Youngblud songs that he's been credited with working on
I Don't think "Tranceluv" was a view farm. I'm sure it was a trance music channel where they would simply just upload Trance music. They all got copyrighted and to avoid legal problems would replace it with different music instead, and retitle it to the new song's title.
There is nothing to gain from starting a channel and re-uploading others’ music but under a different title/artist. It was around this time that UA-cam was even flagging private videos that had copyrighted music and they were able to identify such music without it needing to be documented in the video/description. It’s absolutely shady. If it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck……
Way back when when youtube streams (basically chat rooms with a video player that people could queue up to years ago) I used to be a part of one run I think by someone named Jakizan. There were channels dedicated to just uploading music, which I kind of miss. Another one I remember was someone named I think x1mmortalmagex, though I never hung around that particular group often. Still the same kind of vibe though, just a music uploader often with stuff like DJ Splash, Satomi, S3RL, etc. Never ever thought that would be relevant again on youtube but here we are haha
I remember telling people a long time ago about 009 Sound System having a song dedicated to Columbine and nobody believed me lol glad to see it was brought up here.
man. rigs of rods gameplays, lego car building tutorials, 3d car destruction modelling, every single video i watched in my early days of youtube back in 2011... 009ss literally came up with my childhood anthems
I'm still bummed that I can't get any of the 009 Sound System albums on CD. I've been using UA-cam since late 2009, and this music really resonates with me. I even used some of their songs through Audioswap for my UA-cam videos, mainly for my Futurama pastel drawings. The Audioswap library allowed users to see the most popular songs, and 009 Sound System always topped the list. For me, their music is a reminder of a simpler time, coinciding with technology, the old Apple (the aesthetic of Mac OS X Leopard), Frutiger Aero, the old UA-cam, and the early 2000s.
Yt2009 is a thing Just a bit tech savvy to setup. It’s a UA-cam front that completely make UA-cam it look like as it was 09’ Even the old UA-cam channel art still works on all old channels.
I remember as a kid searching up "bugatti veyron vs dodge viper" a good like 15 years ago and seeing this video using the game forza motorsport 3 and their song "Trinity" was playing. It was probably the first youtube video I'd ever watched. Still listen to the song to this day.
I never thought someone would make a video about this song, but here it is and I am thankful. I've been so curious about this song since it came out and about the history it has! Great vid
Man I love Powerstation. The groove and progression and overall sound of it is great. Had no idea that’s what it was about 😭 I feel like a fool for not knowing
I remember when audioswap became a thing. I had to do that to a few of my early videos in order to get them visible again. And i had to find some songs that matched the video runtime somehow. UA-cam really went absolute downhill since 2009 onwards... the first 3-4 years were the best. Especially the individual channels of everyone that all looked unique and personal.
it's crazy how much I loved 009 Sound System songs as a kid. I literally had so many of them on my PSP, and I even made so many mods for games, including L4D2, that would use 009 songs LMAO. Most recently, Dreamscape came on the radio at work and it genuinely caught me So off guard. I was like "Here??? At work?? By pure chance??? no way..."
Been a trance fanatic since I was in preschool. I loved your dive into the origins of this song and shed light on the people surrounding it. Despite being UA-cam copyright friendly music from long ago, the album itself still inspired a lot of modern electronic/trance artists, and I am glad you made a video on it.
I've been seriously searching up all over UA-cam for the past 3 weeks looking for someone to finally come out to tell this song's lore. 😆 I dream one day this man will come back and make 010 Sound System with new songs.
idk why but as a kid their music scared tf outta me. literally to the point to whatever video it was in, i had to mute it cuz of how much it creeped me out. to this day idk why it scared me lol.
it's definitely real - as an adult, I feel like you can almost channel that energy and use it to sort of take a glimpse back into your childhood. it's wild.
Lol same. I heard that song in my head while sleeping late at night. Still awake while everyone else was asleep and was praying Hail Mary that no demon entity would come out of the closet and take me away while dancing to the song.
Probably also because of how unpredictable UA-cam was back then and how the song was often used on creepy or unusual stuff, combined with the low video quality back then. I remember my first time hearing it was in a video of someone having a weta bug (look up in Google how big they are) crawling over his hand.
I love this song and the entire 009 sound system album. Thanks for making this video, I found it really interesting. It also reminded me that I did find this song scary as a kid, but youtube as a whole was a bit daunting and filled with jumpscares so maybe the song is attached to that feeling. I had no idea back then what it would mean to me now and i'll always treasure the memories I have with this song :)
Every Windows XP notepad tutorial I ever watched used this song, probably one of those things I'll remember on my deathbed when the rest of my memory is faded. Another great video man!
Awesome video, I've been a fan of their music ever since I was a little kid watching UA-cam videos of airplanes, I listen to their music all the time, I love to revise/work with it
In terms of release dates for certain songs, Dreamscape was apparently released as a single back in 2005, 4 years before 009 Sound System's eponymous debut album in 2009. There doesn't really seem to be physical releases before 2009, which could only mean that it was originally released digitally. Same for other songs that the project is known for, such as Space and Time (released in 2006), Born to Be Wasted and Trinity (both released in 2007).
dude kinda random but 1:07 caught me so off guard, I absolutely love Daylight and have been listening to it at least once a week all summer, you have great taste
Bro I was thinking about this the other day. I know these songs by heart as I've heard them in hundreds of UA-cam videos, but could never find the name. This really brought me some closure lol, great vid
I've been listening to this album and adjacent singles and remixes for years now and I've had a hard time finding another artist with a similar soundscape. I've dabbled a bit before in searching about Alexander Perls and related projects like One Track Recordings and EZVID, but I never went too far. I kind of wished you had gotten more into that but I understand the information about it is limited or you just didn't see that as the objective of this video; Regardless of that I still enjoyed what you showed and you did a pretty nice job looking into Dreamscape's online presence.
Great video - Not sure what I think of this Alexander guy but dreamscape will always be iconic. seeing that audioswap editor and the rest of the old youtube layout brought back a ton of memories. If I may, I'd like to put out a feeler for an experience I had with one of the youtube video editors (honestly i should post to reddit): My friend and I were editing a video in it ~2010?, one where we responded to a troll (Iol), probably to add music and either cut some clips out or even add music to it, and we got a message on the screen. It read something along the lines of "Close your eyes, bash your head into the keyboard, and scream." It scared my friend and I so badly as we were kids and it was 12am. Has anyone else ever seen that message? I know the popup said it was from UA-cam, possible it was a virus of some kind that hijacked the browser a bit, but that was all it was - clicking dismissed it. I've been curious about this for years with no results online.
0:00 "I know that everybody watching this video has at some point in their lives heard this nostalgic song" Current teenagers were born when this song came out. They watch this video too probably. We are old, man.
Even in 2017, being 8, when I started watching UA-cam, this song still appeared relatively frequently in compilation's and tutorials from memory. Hearing it again was pretty cool
A great time for YT. I remember reading in the comment section of one of his songs, people discussing who was behind the 009 project. The discussion finished with a comment by him (posted around 2020-2023)
wasnt that comment under ,,speak to angels,, video on trackonerecordings channel? he said that 009SD was parody and as other high quality parodies it was indistinguishable from real thing. he is an atheist
Very interesting video. I remember this song being indeed everywhere on YT back then, almost as popular as DBZ/Naruto AMVs with Linkin Park. And man let me tell you, seeing that old YT layout is a nostalgia overload.
This is just incredible. That song is a part of UA-cam history and of so many childhoods. I cant believe that it was never actually called Trance and we got fooled by those 2 videos that got really popular.
I've been on UA-cam longer than my account has existed (I wanna say 2007), and not once did I actually think about where those iconic songs came from. I knew the name 009 Sound System, but not much else. This was far more fascinating than I expected!

I remember the last video i watched that unironically used Dreamscape being a Toy Story 3 videogame tutorial back in 2013. It was probably one of the last videos in general to unironically use this song
this song was in every goddamn list video, the ones with the xbox 720, the ones with the realistic minecraft mobs, the transformer ones, lego tutorials. if a video had 009 sound system or paralyzer by finger eleven my 9yo ass would be locked tf in

I unironically love 009 Sound System, those tracks have been in my music library for years now because they are banger trance music. I also love Alexander Perls' other music like Maximalist and Storm.
My favorite off the album is ‘Maximalist’ which is featured on another timeless video, that being the then-popular Minecraft Earth video, which spawned its own wave of nostalgia driven collective zeitgeist. It’s credited under Alexander if you were to shazam it and is featured in his other compilation album. Great vid!
That's why they used it so much? I just thought it was a really popular song at the time that everyone liked it so they put it in their videos. I don't listen to modern music so I literally thought it was was at the top of the charts or something.

DUDE Your 2005 edit at like 1:08 was so awesome lmao really set the tone
Dude, thanks a ton. Probably one of the cooler things I’ve done in a video lol, that’s the best of my editing abilities
@@JadenSaladsWhat's the bitcrushed song that plays there?
i want to know too
@@gammaboost it's Daylight by Matt and Kim, such a banger. my guy's got good taste :)
@@velvetprivDaylight by Matt and Kim :)
My introduction to 009 Sound System was back in 2010 when I was watching a video of a Koenigsegg CCR and a Lamborghini Murciélago driving at night with Trinity playing in the background. Brings back a lot of memories.
I will forever remember this one video where someone made a stunt montage of jumping off Mount Chilliad with different vehicles in GTA San Andreas, for the full length of Dreamscape.
2007-2011 UA-cam was something else. You really just had to be there.
This is the first video I've seen from you. For some reason the algorithm decided that I should see an hour old upload from a channel I've never watched, but hey, they won the gamble. I actually love this song, despite it reminding me of notepad and Windows XP. I don't know if you usually upload content related to internet nostalgia, but I'd love to see more.
I have some other videos related to 2000’s nostalgia, like the Danbo Wallpapers and the Frutiger Metro aesthetic.
Thank you for your comment
lol I remember that exact same video, classic UA-cam was a gem!
I’m happy I was there I remember watching a lot of old GTA San Andreas video’s with the song playing back then, And this is not nostalgia speaking UA-cam and the internet truly was better back then. I’m currently 23 about to be 24 in a few days my birthday is soon but man I can’t help but feel old while also not being old yet. I will forever wish I could go back but at least I can die of old age flexing on every new gen saying you weren’t there for this.
Ah yes the classic The Mt. Chilliad Escapades. 2007, early youtube, 009 soundsystem, and San Andreas. We had one hell of a childhood :D
In case you were not aware, Mr Perls has been a ghost producer in EDM for a few years, now. There are a couple of Penny and Youngblud songs that he's been credited with working on
Yo that's pretty sick!
I Don't think "Tranceluv" was a view farm. I'm sure it was a trance music channel where they would simply just upload Trance music. They all got copyrighted and to avoid legal problems would replace it with different music instead, and retitle it to the new song's title.
Yes, I don’t like his take in the video. This is more logical.
Why though?
There is nothing to gain from starting a channel and re-uploading others’ music but under a different title/artist. It was around this time that UA-cam was even flagging private videos that had copyrighted music and they were able to identify such music without it needing to be documented in the video/description. It’s absolutely shady.
If it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck……
@@TitaniumTurbine They still detect copyrighted works on private/unlisted videos
Way back when when youtube streams (basically chat rooms with a video player that people could queue up to years ago) I used to be a part of one run I think by someone named Jakizan. There were channels dedicated to just uploading music, which I kind of miss.
Another one I remember was someone named I think x1mmortalmagex, though I never hung around that particular group often. Still the same kind of vibe though, just a music uploader often with stuff like DJ Splash, Satomi, S3RL, etc.
Never ever thought that would be relevant again on youtube but here we are haha
I remember telling people a long time ago about 009 Sound System having a song dedicated to Columbine and nobody believed me lol glad to see it was brought up here.
009 sound system makes me feel like back in the past listening to this song. It gives great vide
Damn UA-cam 2006 to 2010 was pure gold ❤
man. rigs of rods gameplays, lego car building tutorials, 3d car destruction modelling, every single video i watched in my early days of youtube back in 2011... 009ss literally came up with my childhood anthems
I'm still bummed that I can't get any of the 009 Sound System albums on CD. I've been using UA-cam since late 2009, and this music really resonates with me. I even used some of their songs through Audioswap for my UA-cam videos, mainly for my Futurama pastel drawings. The Audioswap library allowed users to see the most popular songs, and 009 Sound System always topped the list. For me, their music is a reminder of a simpler time, coinciding with technology, the old Apple (the aesthetic of Mac OS X Leopard), Frutiger Aero, the old UA-cam, and the early 2000s.
Wonderful comment. I hope you get that CD one day.
Yt2009 is a thing
Just a bit tech savvy to setup.
It’s a UA-cam front that completely make UA-cam it look like as it was 09’
Even the old UA-cam channel art still works on all old channels.
Since when was Mac OS X Leopard ‘old Apple’, shit’s still new in comparison
All of 009 Sound System's music is still available to listen to on streaming services 👍
I remember as a kid searching up "bugatti veyron vs dodge viper" a good like 15 years ago and seeing this video using the game forza motorsport 3 and their song "Trinity" was playing. It was probably the first youtube video I'd ever watched.
Still listen to the song to this day.
Another song I remember being in classic youtube is Drowning Pool - Bodies.
Paralyzed by Finger Eleven.
Jaden your one of the reasons I started my channel. I just want to say thank you.
I never thought someone would make a video about this song, but here it is and I am thankful. I've been so curious about this song since it came out and about the history it has! Great vid
Answering the questions I didn’t know I had 🔥 thanks for having me brother (:
🫶🏻
Man I love Powerstation. The groove and progression and overall sound of it is great. Had no idea that’s what it was about 😭
I feel like a fool for not knowing
Alex seems like the type of dude who would be involved with making a song about Columbine
I remember when audioswap became a thing. I had to do that to a few of my early videos in order to get them visible again. And i had to find some songs that matched the video runtime somehow. UA-cam really went absolute downhill since 2009 onwards... the first 3-4 years were the best. Especially the individual channels of everyone that all looked unique and personal.
it's crazy how much I loved 009 Sound System songs as a kid. I literally had so many of them on my PSP, and I even made so many mods for games, including L4D2, that would use 009 songs LMAO. Most recently, Dreamscape came on the radio at work and it genuinely caught me So off guard. I was like "Here??? At work?? By pure chance??? no way..."
Been a trance fanatic since I was in preschool. I loved your dive into the origins of this song and shed light on the people surrounding it. Despite being UA-cam copyright friendly music from long ago, the album itself still inspired a lot of modern electronic/trance artists, and I am glad you made a video on it.
No one was inspired by this trvsh. It's like saying NCS inspired many EDM artists. Maybe some no names but certainly no greats.
@@bigboss-qv7peyou calling that masterpiece trash? Better than ncs fs
i definetly remember the song before 2009.
I checked the description and it said released 2008-04-09 idk if it really was but ig ur right
Same, it was out much before then.
same here, I have heard this on cat memes back then which are probably gone by now
I've been seriously searching up all over UA-cam for the past 3 weeks looking for someone to finally come out to tell this song's lore. 😆
I dream one day this man will come back and make 010 Sound System with new songs.
I love the topics this dude covers. Please keep creating content like this.
idk why but as a kid their music scared tf outta me. literally to the point to whatever video it was in, i had to mute it cuz of how much it creeped me out. to this day idk why it scared me lol.
ngl watching this had me kind of anxious😅didnt go away for me i guess
it's definitely real - as an adult, I feel like you can almost channel that energy and use it to sort of take a glimpse back into your childhood. it's wild.
Lol same. I heard that song in my head while sleeping late at night. Still awake while everyone else was asleep and was praying Hail Mary that no demon entity would come out of the closet and take me away while dancing to the song.
Probably also because of how unpredictable UA-cam was back then and how the song was often used on creepy or unusual stuff, combined with the low video quality back then.
I remember my first time hearing it was in a video of someone having a weta bug (look up in Google how big they are) crawling over his hand.
for me it was mesmerizing
i freaking love trance music
I love this song and the entire 009 sound system album. Thanks for making this video, I found it really interesting. It also reminded me that I did find this song scary as a kid, but youtube as a whole was a bit daunting and filled with jumpscares so maybe the song is attached to that feeling. I had no idea back then what it would mean to me now and i'll always treasure the memories I have with this song :)
Great video! I love "Lost medias" and stuffs like this. Keep them coming
bro i’ve been wondering where that damn song comes from for YEARS
Every Windows XP notepad tutorial I ever watched used this song, probably one of those things I'll remember on my deathbed when the rest of my memory is faded. Another great video man!
How does the algorithm know this song has been in my head for 2 weeks resisting searching it up?
This happens a lot to me too so you're not the only one
it´s like when you think of something, never say it out loud, then suddenly it appears on your amazon recommendations, weird
@@ferdinand12390 Exactly.
Oh to be a being in whomes thoughts can not be calculated, predicted, and manipulated
To be him, I'm not, I got HER
Jaden's 2000s/2010s video topics like these and the danboard and frutiger metro videos be bringing me back man.
Amazing vid as always! luv your channel x3
This and "my shooter" were THE tutorial songs in the early 2010s
Now we need to figure out wtf happened to Groove Cutter
don't forget paralyzer finger eleven
This might blow your mind, but Perls provided the lyrics and the vocals for My Shooter.
Awesome video, I've been a fan of their music ever since I was a little kid watching UA-cam videos of airplanes, I listen to their music all the time, I love to revise/work with it
Thank you for this Video. I frequently comming Back to this banger to get a big nostalgia Push. Really interessting Video
I listen to your videos when i study and edit my videos it helps me focus
This song scared me a lot as a kid and I still don’t know why
Wow I can’t believe I’d be hearing that classic again 😢
In terms of release dates for certain songs, Dreamscape was apparently released as a single back in 2005, 4 years before 009 Sound System's eponymous debut album in 2009. There doesn't really seem to be physical releases before 2009, which could only mean that it was originally released digitally. Same for other songs that the project is known for, such as Space and Time (released in 2006), Born to Be Wasted and Trinity (both released in 2007).
dude kinda random but 1:07 caught me so off guard, I absolutely love Daylight and have been listening to it at least once a week all summer, you have great taste
Ain’t no way we got a 009 sound system lore before GTA 6
This is what it feels like for a war hero to see his old squad buddies
I had no idea audioswap was a thing. The existence of all those "first" music videos where the audio cuts off makes so much sense now.
Alexander Perls! He's actually worked with other Trance artists on some fine stuff.
Soulseeker with Ronski Speed being an example.
Trance
He has also worked with ATB on some projects if I remember correctly.
Still listening to it for my workouts
Bro I was thinking about this the other day. I know these songs by heart as I've heard them in hundreds of UA-cam videos, but could never find the name. This really brought me some closure lol, great vid
This, Born to be wasted, My Shooter and Stop (blue mix) are the songs I still listen to, nostalgia vibes hit hard.
0:56 that mclaren hoodie is sick
I can't handle the nostalgia without tearing up.
I remember it as the "ghost footage that may or may not have a jumpscare" theme song.
take me back to the build your own car flash games with this banger playing
Oh wow, what a throwback
still listen to them
born to be wasted is a banger
8:37 Well, now I know what David Guetta's voice sounds like.
I've been listening to this album and adjacent singles and remixes for years now and I've had a hard time finding another artist with a similar soundscape. I've dabbled a bit before in searching about Alexander Perls and related projects like One Track Recordings and EZVID, but I never went too far. I kind of wished you had gotten more into that but I understand the information about it is limited or you just didn't see that as the objective of this video; Regardless of that I still enjoyed what you showed and you did a pretty nice job looking into Dreamscape's online presence.
Great video - Not sure what I think of this Alexander guy but dreamscape will always be iconic. seeing that audioswap editor and the rest of the old youtube layout brought back a ton of memories. If I may, I'd like to put out a feeler for an experience I had with one of the youtube video editors (honestly i should post to reddit): My friend and I were editing a video in it ~2010?, one where we responded to a troll (Iol), probably to add music and either cut some clips out or even add music to it, and we got a message on the screen. It read something along the lines of "Close your eyes, bash your head into the keyboard, and scream." It scared my friend and I so badly as we were kids and it was 12am. Has anyone else ever seen that message? I know the popup said it was from UA-cam, possible it was a virus of some kind that hijacked the browser a bit, but that was all it was - clicking dismissed it. I've been curious about this for years with no results online.
0:00 "I know that everybody watching this video has at some point in their lives heard this nostalgic song"
Current teenagers were born when this song came out. They watch this video too probably.
We are old, man.
Even in 2017, being 8, when I started watching UA-cam, this song still appeared relatively frequently in compilation's and tutorials from memory. Hearing it again was pretty cool
I was 6 in 2009 and was playing roblox and watching roblox youtube videos, thats where i heard this song
A great time for YT.
I remember reading in the comment section of one of his songs, people discussing who was behind the 009 project. The discussion finished with a comment by him (posted around 2020-2023)
man i would like to see that comment? Do u have the link of that video?
@@german999rey I might have to investigate a bit to find it, but I think it is an upload from Track One Records
wasnt that comment under ,,speak to angels,, video on trackonerecordings channel? he said that 009SD was parody and as other high quality parodies it was indistinguishable from real thing. he is an atheist
@@themaaciek not sure... I remember someone said "we'll never know who is 009SS" and he replied "Hm... "
@@Calibra95 I saw it! dont remember on what video it was
Very interesting video. I remember this song being indeed everywhere on YT back then, almost as popular as DBZ/Naruto AMVs with Linkin Park.
And man let me tell you, seeing that old YT layout is a nostalgia overload.
Everytime I got this as an ad it would hurt my ears. Now it’s music to my ears :)
I remember growing up with this song. Thanks for covering about this song.
Been watching UA-cam since 2006 and i still use this song on my videos. i just can't get enought out of the old "UA-cam Broadcast Yourself" days.
No doubt.
Having that Royel Otis recommended cover at 10:21 makes you the instant goat
This is just incredible. That song is a part of UA-cam history and of so many childhoods. I cant believe that it was never actually called Trance and we got fooled by those 2 videos that got really popular.
I have heard this song so many times
I've been on UA-cam longer than my account has existed (I wanna say 2007), and not once did I actually think about where those iconic songs came from. I knew the name 009 Sound System, but not much else. This was far more fascinating than I expected!
Very very informative video thank you a lot!
I still have the 009 sound system remastered album on iTunes

That boosted-up nostalgia, i remember how amazing & unique that music was & 009 Sound was.
The fact that you made this nostalgic video in Sony Vegas makes it even better
I love how you managed to sneak in grand slam at dennys at 3:51 lmao
For what it was, it was a pretty powerful meme.
SWEGTA, you legend!
Random swegta cameo
I actually love the With A Spirit song in the album, and even got the digital paid version of the album 10 years ago haha....
Same
The first time I heard it was on a speculation video on who would appear in Transformers 2, lol.
That's hilarious. 😂.
"For those of you who are uncultured" is crazy ngl
Its not even that crazy bffr
It’s not crazy because some people are too young to know about this.
Is it "crazy" or are you "capping?" Skull emoji.
take me back miss those times miss old yt notepad tutorials everyone hated teh song
Game Maker tutorials filled with 009 tracks... Absolute nostlagia bangers
12:38 Music: Icebreaker - Melody for NATO
I remember the last video i watched that unironically used Dreamscape being a Toy Story 3 videogame tutorial back in 2013. It was probably one of the last videos in general to unironically use this song
I still listen to all of 009 songs, not just their popular!
this song was in every goddamn list video, the ones with the xbox 720, the ones with the realistic minecraft mobs, the transformer ones, lego tutorials.
if a video had 009 sound system or paralyzer by finger eleven my 9yo ass would be locked tf in
a little more history on the audio swap feature that youtube had: It was a bit of a meme back then to upload a video and laughing at the audio that didn't match the scene, so like a aeriths death in FF7 etc
ive been waiting for a video like this for ages 10+ years
Holy shit I remember Dreamscape receiving the title of UA-cam's anthem. I am old.

The most nostalgic thing in this video are those delicious OS X scrollbars.
Man this song made my childhood I never new this song went so deep but ig the more you know
This song, and "Paralyzer" - Finger Eleven are both permanently stuck in my head.
The one song I heard in many videos during my childhood. Those tutorial videos with notepad always ringed a bell.
I unironically love 009 Sound System, those tracks have been in my music library for years now because they are banger trance music. I also love Alexander Perls' other music like Maximalist and Storm.
My favorite off the album is ‘Maximalist’ which is featured on another timeless video, that being the then-popular Minecraft Earth video, which spawned its own wave of nostalgia driven collective zeitgeist. It’s credited under Alexander if you were to shazam it and is featured in his other compilation album. Great vid!
Can't believe i missed this video, and look! 15:37
It's my old fanart, yippee!!
That's why they used it so much? I just thought it was a really popular song at the time that everyone liked it so they put it in their videos. I don't listen to modern music so I literally thought it was was at the top of the charts or something.
