Back in the year 2000, "It's My Turn" by Angelic came out; a trance track produced by Darren Tate and Judge Jules, with vocals by Jules' wife Amanda. The debut track of Angelic became a big success and it even made it it to the #11 position of the UK singles chart!
Because of the upcoming 20th anniversary I sat down with Darren in his studio, to ask him about the story behind "It's My Turn", you will hear more about the production process of the track, were the inspiration came from, the performance at Top Of The Pops and more!
Also make sure to check out my interview with Darren Tate, where we discuss "The Theme", a track he did under his "Jurgen Vries" alias:

Which of all the "Angelic" tracks (or remixes) is your favorite one?
Can't Keep Me Silent (Original Mix)
Think I'd agree with Can't keep me Silent, also prefer Stay with Me over It's my turn.
Can't Keep Me Silent - Original Mix
It's My Turn is the best of their releases and I like that the most.
It’s My Turn has to be my favourite, as it is so nostalgic for me, but Stay With Me I also really like.
He's a musical genius. Love his melodies.
He is indeed!!
Love this tune, takes me back to 2000/20001 when life was way less stressful and the only dramas were where to go on a sat night! Judge always to play it as his first tune at 5pm on his Saturday show. Great Times!
You could always tell Darren was classically trained. The harmonies and chord progressions used in his classic productions always struck me as just sounding really mature and intelligent; pure ear candy. They were a cut above what could be heard from other trance artists around at the time imo.
Dt8 project Hold me till the end is one of my favourite tracks ever.
Thank you for keeping Trance history alive. All those stories, really like watching National Geographic. 😁
Ivaylo Ivanov haha oh I love this comment! And thank you, more to come soon!
Darrens music has been a big part of my life also, an old MOS cd with the theme on it i use to cane at 13, at the time i just thought ‘jurgen vries’ was a mad dutch man who made great music, i discovered most of the music through radio 1 and others on the weekend radio shows, a couple of years later with dt8 winter i didnt know it was the same guy at the time and it just goes to show how diverse his music is. A true legend.
I agree he is amazing
Holy Mother what a Legend, my kind of person. Been listening to his music over the last 20 years under the different pseudonyms never knowing it was the same guy!.
Damn that's cool
Same. 😅
Best track : Angelic - Can't keep me Silent (JamX and De Leons Dumonde Remix) , so powerful
Winter is a great tune that he did very powerful. Darren tate absolute legend of the trance genre.
trance master xxx
Criminaly underrated .
Nice! my favourite angelic track is Plasma feat. Berri - Do U Believe (Angelic Remix) (2000)
Please release the instrumental version. Its by far the best version of Its my turn.
I'm sure it will make Darren smile, but the best Angelic track is the unreleased dub version of "It's my turn". I remember hearing it on Radio 1 (played by Jules) and it's absolutely awesome. Ever since then the vocal version sounds clunky and I've been looking everywhere to find the dub version. But as Darren confirmed - it's never been released. Thanks Judge Jules! Luckily there are clips on YT to give everyone the taster of what the music's is really like without Amanda's bits :) Perhaps Darren can find a way to share his original if it's never been released...
I didn't note what Darren used to sequence It's My Turn. PC? Definitely one of my favourite dance records - so much nostalgia.
My favorite producer Mr Tate Massive rispect!!
I love these videos! So interesting and they bring back some amazing memories. Thanks
Thanks so much Jamie! More to come in the next weeks; Joe Smooth, Lange, The Space Brothers and more ;-)
Such a great interview with one my legends.
Thanks so much, glad you liked it!
another great vlog , I totally forgot all about this track
Thanks a lot! Can't believe it is turning 20 soon, time flies!
@@muzikxpress keep up the great work
Informative and interesting, he remembers a lot of stuff from back then. He has produced an unbelievable amount of great tracks (jurgen the theme, dt8 winter, darren tate - venus)
J N thank you!!
J N Thanks man x
Only just discovered this channel tonight and I've already binged about 6 videos in a row. Im loving hearing all my old heroes talk about the tracks that I couldn't get enough of as a teenager.
Please please please interview Rank One about Airwave!
Haha thank you, glad you like the interviews! And I spoke to the Rank 1 guys last year already about an interview. So we're gonna try to make it happen somewhere this year when all 3 of us have time. So... stay tuned ;-)
Omg I can’t believe judge jules wife was the singer. Love these interviews from Twan, legend mate 👍
Haha yes, it is Jules' wife Amanda! And thank you, glad you like them!
@@muzikxpress honestly mate, I comment on your channel from multiple utube and Facebook. Bloody love yr videos mate, great guy👍.
@@Carl-vq6ww thank you so much for the support!!!
Classic track. Great interview.
Thanks so much Michael!!
I love this tune, especially because of the melody. It's very emotional. The vocals are good. They are kind of angelic...heheh! Great job with the interview again. Keep up the good work, Twan. 👍🏽😊
Hersh Agnihotri thanks so much Hersh!!!
Anthem. ❤🎉
LEGEND!
Heard this
What a composer
Twan always a good watch, love that fact he went for the an Novation because Ferry was all over the JP
Thank you! And yes, that's cool right? haha!
It's funny though because he ended up getting the JP anyway and using it completely undisguised doing classic Supersaw pads all over Opera Song and Wilderness 😂
I love his tracks. I didn't know the mentioned aliases were him, especially Jurgen Vries. 'Winter' is my favourite along with 'Take My Hand'
Dale Husbands oh you should check the interview I did with Darren about the Jurgen Vries track “The Theme”, that one is available on my channel as well. Hope you enjoy it!
@@muzikxpress I'll do that immediately. Thanks Twon. Keep up the great work.
Top quality interview as usual :-D Absolutely love It's My Turn but I have to agree with Darren that DT8 Project - Destination is my favourite of his productions.
Woah😳Angelic was Darren Tate?🤩omg Angelic had made a track back in 2001 called "Do U Believe " I still have that track,don't know if ppl have heard it or not?🙄but that track is still a masterpiece 😇🙌🙌🙌🙌🤩🕺🕺🕺Thank you Muzikxpress and Darren Tate sir🕺🕺🕺🤩👍 yeah the track was Do you believe (Angelic Edit)😉😄👍love it still..thank hou
Haha yes, Angelic is also a project from Darren (and this was his very first official release ever!).
@@muzikxpress woah🤩👍coool
I too only just learned Angelic was Darren😱. Mind blown!!!! Do You Believe is my fav of that artist name. I knew most of his other names and tracks and have those. And without rambling on too much, one thing that is apparent in the breakdowns is how musically tight they are ie the pads complement the leads perfectly, it's like next level stuff as he has all the musicality trained into him. Makes such a difference. I also loved his work with Jono Grant from Anjuna. Nocturnal Creatures is a great track, both mixes! But the old school Anjuna fan in me gives the Jono mix the edge but not by much! Of all the years listening to trance the one thing i never progressed was producing despite trying on various DAW platforms. It always seemed a minefield that a DAW didn't have enough trance type samples without the meed to find external plug ins (or i am just that sh*t i couldn't discover how to tweak sounds to the way i heard them in my head 😂) i think I'd absolutely be like a kid in the best toyshop ever to sit in a studio with Darren! He has that aura of knowledge about him and i bet he'd kick my ass into gear to begin producing properly. 🙌
Would love to know more about Orion - Eternity, my favourite breakdown of all time.
Steven McGuinness Darren did so many great tracks, but there was only time for 2 interviews. But hopefully somewhere in the future, never say never 😉
muzikxpress Thanks for the reply, love your Channel.
Steven McGuinness thanks so much! More to come soon 😉
Great video and one of my favourite songs.
Loved the DT8 music,just amazing👍🏼
Orion : New World EP - that's what it's all about.
Very happy with this last one of Darren a lot of backround info which is why I watch them. Solid bloke, solid choons and solid interviewer, thanks again!
Thank you so much! I'm very happy with this one too hehe ;-)
@@muzikxpress Cheers pal, love your work 🙏🏻
Iow3freq music thank you very much!!!!
Don't know if Darren Tate will ever see this. I used to play out "Destination" (Original) followed by the instrumental track "Sunburn" by AVB - works really well!
Wow, very nice! My favourite angelic tune is the '7 colours' angelic remix.
Johnson09064 that's lost witness tho
@@trancemaster871 remix...
I actually wasn’t even credited when my mix of that track first appeared on the early Ministry comps. People thought it was the original mix.
@@darrentate4488 Is this the real dt8? Omfg! I love your work! One of my favorite tunes ever is 'destination', really takes me to another world... I'm lost for words....
Johnson09064 Yes! Thanks man appreciate the kind words x
Brilliant content, as always! Thank you for another great insight!
BDT Trance thanks so much!!
Keep up the great work, thanks again for another great interview!
Thanks a lot David!!
i always enjoy your interviews, thank you. i learn something new every time ❣️✨
GuillenTovar thank you so much!!
love these videos
Thank you so much!
Another amazing interview and great insight with that Sunscreem track.
Thanks a lot! And indeed, good to know the real story behind it, right? ;-)
Awesome! I wish I met him in person. Very cool guy and nice interview.
Another great interview. Darren such a nice guy. Seems I've bought most of his stuff.
Thanks so much, glad you like it!
Great music is always intriguing 😉
Tune! I still play this, even in the car! Difficult to comprehend it's 23 years ago! I'm curious, what are those monitor speakers behind Darren?
Musical genius and a trance GOD!!! The one track he did under Darren Tate that still gives me goosebumps and is an absolute masterpiece that for some reason never got the love it absolutely deserved, was "Venus". Just sublime!!
Completely agreed criminally underrated
superb questions 🤘 great interview!
Thanks so much!
@@muzikxpress ive subbed! ipl be checking more out..hooefully one day you may interview me 😆 im still an unknown artist though haha. although had a re ord deal with Awesome 3 for a track i wrote, (vinyl) so maybe one day! 😆 when im better and know lol
@@Impulse-One Thanks for subscribing! And never say never ;-) Which track was it if I may ask?
@@muzikxpress i agree lol..i live in hope :) 👍 the track was Fire Fly (Manchester radii edit) its on my channel from last year. theres been 15 i think remixes now, djs producers around world mainly UK. It became a collab with Awesome 3 through facebook 💗 their 1st vinyl release in 20 years it was..i am so greatfull! 💗
Cannot wait for what's happening from Darren and Steve Jones!
Oh same, very curious about that one too!!!
And all these years later we still want the instrumental version, which very sadly and annoyingly sounds like that will never happen, cheers Jules! (grrr!). Great interview though, what a sound (great) guy Mr Tate is.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the interview!
@H8ash1ndustries You could probably make one yourself with the tools available today, pretty quick and free!
Would love to see an interview about his "Let the Light Shine In"
Well, me too 😉 Hopefully one day! 🤞🏻
7 hours😮
I agree with him on destination, that's a great tune.
Lee Downer it is for sure!!!
Darren is God!
Thanks for all these videos, they are excellent!
One tip though, it would be good to ask 'what is your favourite remix of the track?', as opposed to asking 'what is favourite version of the track?' as the producer is most likely to say they prefer the original.
It would be a great insight to see which remixed version the track producer likes best...
:)
Gibonz Thank you! And I’ll try to remember 😉
Would love to see you interview about the following tracks: 'Carte Blanche' by Veracocha; 'Beautiful' by Matt Darey; 'Castle's In The Sky' Ian Van Dahl and 'Kernkraft 400' by Zombie Nation. Lovin' all these videos
Thank you so much! And good suggestions for sure, but FYI, I don't have a travel budget for these vlogs, so I can only do interviews with people that live near me (South part of The Netherlands). BTW, I just did an interview with Matt Darey some months ago about “Point Zero”. I’m already working with someone else from your list for a possible interview next year, hopefully it will work out, fingers crossed! Thanks for the support!
@sunset 86 Veracocha is V. De Moor and Corsten, so unless Ferry is open to that, it would be impossible at this time as Vincent is an enigma these days! I kind of respect him more in a weird way for that though.
@@muzikxpress No worries man. I appreciate all the videos you do, keep it up!
@@muzikxpress Rank One - Airwave please 😍
Nearly everyone you interview mentions the JP8000 or 8080... Would be great to speak to the guys who started the whole Supersaw 'thing' 🙂
Great interview, you should get an Andrew Bayer interview for his new album
Buddy Helm I love Andrew’s stuff, but in my vlogs / interviews I focus on classic tracks only 😉 Mostly from the 80s / 90s and early zeroes.
‘Beyond Euphoria’ by DT8 Project funnily enough features a sunscreem sampled track which is Public Domain - Love u More but darren uses the dub mix, wonder if thats a little inside joke. Anyway i love that mix cd its very nostalgic for me from being 18 and partying hard at the time
Love this series, you need to get in touch with Dave and Brendan Webster (Transa) and see if they will do one of these for the story behind Supernova.
Already spoke with them about it, so hopefully we can make this happen one day! And thanks so much for the nice words!!
@@muzikxpress Great fingers crossed, you are very welcome 👍
Thanks for doing these interviews! I wish you would go more in depth on the production and synth work involved though, but maybe your audience don't really care, idk.
jimmyo Thank you!! And indeed, most of my subscribers are “just” fans that love the tracks, so I don’t want to go too much in depth on the production. Besides that, I’m not a producer myself, so it would be weird to ask stuff if I have no clue what they are talking about 😉 There’s other channels that focus on those kind of things. I’m more interested in the story behind a track, cool trivia / fun facts and things like that. Hope you still enjoy the interviews! More to come soon 😉
jimmyo You have any specific questions fire away Jimmy :)
@@darrentate4488 Can you reveal from where the piano in The Theme came from? cheers
@@muzikxpress I understand, they are still very interesting!
jimmyo thanks so much!!!
The dispute with Sunscreem was interesting! Im pretty sure i heard Jules play 'Orion - Eternity' on Radio 1 around christmas 1998,as it was one of my first Trance memories - but then i noticed it wasnt released until late 2000! So im not sure if i imagined this or that there was a big delay between Darren making the tracks and their release....
Yeah, I'm glad he was willing to share this story!
When judge jules was on radio 1 that was the best times I used to record all of his shows I know jules did a few tracks with Darren tate, but my favourite track of dt8 is winter.
there are some other tracks with very similar chords so maybe that's one of those, it might be dj tandu - velvet
@@yespapa5711 nah i remember the 'for eternity' sample...jules did get tracks very early.
Magdelayna I think he got records early for his radio show he did also play alot white labels too
Recently uploaded Daz Bailey remix on my site. 👌 What a beautiful song!
i thought the Sunscreem version didn't get an official release because they label went bankrupt around that time...
I'd love to see a interview with the makers of Highgate Canned And Unable because some say that's the most advanced dance music tune ever made and people just don't believe jules ever made it and it was all Paul's work
I spoke to Paul earlier this year and he's up for it! But because of the COVID-19 situation, I won't be able to interview people from outside The Netherlands for a while (most likely not anymore for the rest of 2021....).
I posted an update here (link below) last week with what I do and what you can expect and also what not ;-) Thanks for reading, hope you will enjoy the upcoming interviews I have lined up :)

What a whole load of drivel
Didnt know he was DT8
Haha, yes he is! :)
It's all in the name....😆
Darren is funny, seems cool
He's a great guy for sure, very happy he had time for me during my little London trip, since he had some production deadlines that week hehe
@@muzikxpress awesome
Noooooo now we will never know what his favorit remix of "its my turn was" ;)
So, in terms of the whole Sunscream - Change situation was concerned. Am I right that he remixed the track, but used only the vocal from it. Sunscream rejected the remix. Then Darren changed the vocals and then released it as ‘It’s My Turn’ and then presumably got sued?
BDT Trance No. They wanted it, but then wanted to change what I had done. It gets much more complicated and to be honest was a bitter experience which thankfully led to better things.
Darren Tate, wow I didn’t expect a direct response from yourself, thank you! It is a shame that you had to deal with something like that so early on but I’m glad you moved past it. Furthermore, I’m sure that I speak for everyone here when I say I’m incredibly glad the track still got released, along with all of your subsequent releases. You were and still are one of my all-time favourite artists. Also, I will be watching Frontera now, as soon as I can. Thanks so much again :)
BDT Trance My pleasure! Thanks for your support and kind words :)
@@darrentate4488 I heard the track on the Judge Jules show, like a lot of people did, and I don't think a year has gone past when I have not searched for the original track, as much as I loved the vocal version, that original track literally made me "get" trance. It's really interesting to hear you now work on film soundtracks, that music is really now my first love, as I am writing this I am listening to the Ramin Djawadis score for the latest season of Westworld, I have a podcast that is all about filmmaking, cinechill.com, would love to have you as a guest to talk about film music. Anyway, thanks for turning my ear onto trance all those years ago.
Simondo Films hey there sure just drop info@darrentate.com a line Best Darren
& the story about ' prayer for god?'
Maybe another time 🤞🏻 The day I made a visit to Darren he had some production deadlines so there was time to record 2 interviews. Very happy with those, but I hope to record more next time if possible 😉
Pineapple on pizza... hell NO.
