@@onel_ofc5011 both are on the wish list, but Nick hasn’t been back in NL for a while now, so hopefully once things get safer again in the future. Fingers crossed!
'Offshore' remains an absolute classic - one of those tracks that somehow resonates for so many people in countless ways. For me, it's a perfect representation of what I call 'widescreen' music - lush, atmospheric, melodic, and highly evocative. Beautiful chords supporting a hugely compelling riff.
This Track & saltwater always gave me the "hot summer deserted beach walk feels"' So dreamy & So Melancholic. The music Chicane created always felt inspirational and life if full of potential. Thanks Chicane & Bedankt beste Twan.
Known nick from school came to the ministry of sound with me once so he could give a few copies of his records out to the dj’s who were playing that night. That record launched him into world wide success!
No tunes do it like Offshore and Saltwater. So simple, yet takes you further than almost anything else out there today. They can both bring bliss, memories, emotion, nostalgia, euphoria, they’re absolute Masterpieces of Trance
Interviewed in FM 95 May 2000 I still have it. He used mainly Roland S-750 & S-760's back then, there are four in the rack. He had a JV-1080 that he used but tended towards the samplers. A Spirit Studio analog mixer, a pair of SH-101's. He used an Alesis 3630 across the mix and an SPL Vitalizer on everything. He also used the Lexicon MP1 on everything as that's what he had, also used a pair of Boss SX-700 effects. Sometime after Offshore he got a Nord Lead Keyboard and Rack which he used on main plucks for Saltwater.
I love this Artist. Unbeknownst to Nick , his music defined my life. There is NO OTHER artist that moves me on the dancefloor and just for that alone, indeed a great Artist. A TranceGod !!
I was 12 when offshore came out, my brother had it on cassette and even then I remember I got butterflies in my stomach. For me something about the track signifies strength and hope, even without the vocal. Its so well produced. I really get what Nick is saying about the music being in you. I really do believe that one is born with an innate sense of knowing what/how to write, its like a gift. Offshore is 100% the best example of this. The emotion is conveys seems to be universal.
I remember participation in a super rig, night of the discotheques, where we compete to be the best club in Flanders. Intro was Adiemus - Adiemus and a remix from this, goosebumps alert, and public lost their minds and go into the trip. Still goosebumps here hehe. Understanding mixing and mastering can be chaotic in some manner, leave the working project, doing something else, going back, so he learned it hard way lol, poor fella.
So good from a production standpoint to hear that Nick takes a long time in order to let a track marinate. Instead of: "Yeah, man. Tossed off that hit in an hour." He's always been one of my greatest influences. What an amazing artist. Thanks for this outstanding interview.
Offshore was by far the best track he ever did, absolute masterpiece with such an ambiance at the end, I’ve always enjoyed his music but this track is fantastic, Hats Off To U Aswell Muzikxpress 🙏
Brilliant interview mate, and what an absolute legend Nick is! Love this one :) Huge thanks for getting my 'Saltwater' vinyl signed too! Framed and on the wall already of course :D
Would love to sit down with Nick again somewhere in the future if he is up for another interview. Someone else already suggested I should do one about "Saltwater" with him too ;-) And of course I should ask then about the Clannad song, that's a given lol
Wooow🙌🙌🙌🙌one of my favourite Trance legends😁🙌if you're from 90's, you must have heard and liked "Offshore", wow interview of Chicane 😍👌😇🙌😁👏👏👏Thank you Muzikxpress, thanks a lot😁🙌👍love this show, and thanks a lot sir Nick Chicane🙌😁😇😍👍🙌🙌🙌🙌😇👏👏👏👏hope you create more tracks like "saltwater" "don't give it up", "poppihola" "spirit" (almost all your past tracks left a massive footprint in Trance World, loved/still love your tracks sir😇🙌😇👏👏👏Thank you 😁😇🙌👏
It's incredible how challenging it was to complete this track, which has had such profound impact on electronic music - Everything after the album Far From The Maddening Crowds was VERY good as well, and certainly less challenging to produce from a technical POV, but this, this was something unprecedented, it was/is that good!
I listen to this track every week.. Its part of me 💜. Part of My most innocent lovely time of my life when I first listen to this track back in the day of 1997... My heart was so pure.. Still is, especially when I put this track on to enhance that emotion 💚 He is such a down to earth wonderful being. Luv this guy !. Thanks for the interview 🌟
Nick without doubt is a Trance God!.. Offshore, Seven Cities (Solarstone), Out of the Blue (System F (aka Ferry Corsten)) and Children (Robert Miles) defined the Trance Genre for me and if something new comes up that I love you can be sure it has echoes of those types of songs!.. Nick you are a Genius truly a modern day Mozart!! 😊
Thank you so much! I started like a year ago, so I'm still kinda "new" to this. But I hope my channel gets more attention, so every comment / like / share is very much appreciated!
More history taken from insert of Anthony Pappa's - Resolution, amazing mix CD btw really captures Pappas soul, that IS HIM YOU ARE HEARING. He did have a few advantages, mind. He'd met a number of British DJs while playing in Australia and there was also the small matter of him being extremely good. Those musical skills encouraged by his dad had found an outlet in his DJing, not least his harmonic mixing skills (he still organises his box into keys). In face, this was how he chanced across the Chicance/Offshore liaison. "I wasn't mad on the record, but i thought it was a nice vocal. Offshore was breakbeaty tune. I keyed them both and put them in my record box and I wondered how they'd sound together and-bang-that was it." That was, indeed, it: 'Offshore' reached number 14 in the pop charts.
Xtravaganza -- golden years of Nick Bracegirdle... Idea with vocal version of "Offshore" (i think) led to collaboration with Brian Adams to another radio hit #1
Much love & respect to Nick (and for you Twan once again for a great interview)! ‘Saltwater’ is most def in my top fave tracks of all time and many others, like ‘Offshore’ have left a deep memory mark, too!
I found it really interesting how he Nick said he often listens to music he loves with an ear to figuring out precisely *why* particular chords or harmonies etc 'work' for a specific result. Made me instantly think of that beautiful middle-8 / angelic voices pad reprise he put into Poppiholla. At the time I remember thinking how much musically it reminded me of James Horner's final cue from the Titanic score and if he'd made it sound like than on purpose as a homage to it.
Mate im from oz. Used to dj but not anymore. Chicane's No Ordinary Morning is a personal favourite of mine i still have it on vinyl. Keep these old skool contents coming ur doing a great job
@@muzikxpress when this damn isolation is over will send some patreon money over mate. Hope you can get an interview with Lange. He remixed Agnelli Nelsons Everyday. And his tune Out of the sky. Nalin & Kane- Beachball. I wont give u a mile long request list lol
This track gets me emotional every time I hear it. I dedicated it to 3 female ex co-workers of mine when I walked away from my job. I had a crush with one of them and did not tell her at the time as I barely knew her... She had her birthday on that day and I left with tears in my eyes. She never saw that scene. Never seen her or heard from her since then... I am still furious about this till today.
Thank you for taking the time to do this interview. I've always wondered what Nick/Chicane is like & the history of his music style. Originally I found Chicane with Halcyon, thought it was a remix of Orbital's at first
Great interview! Chicane single was my first CD single I ever bought... love this track to bits and play it very often. I have his whole discography but love the early stuff the most up to Giants, after that there’s just one or two cool tracks and rest were just fillers
Thank you for this interview, thanks to Nick i discovered more and more music, i still remember how i discovered his music by accident and to this day he stayed one of my favorite musicians. I still embrace more his second album Behind the Sun, and my favorite Chicane track is Low Sun
In its original form, arguably one of the finest pieces of music ever. My original copy is credited to Offshore before he had to change it (remember 'I can't take the power' early 90's). I was at a night called One Love in Swindon UK when Anthony Pappa was scratching in A Little Love, absolutely biblical! Thanks I've enjoyed a few of your videos now, so I've subscribed. Stay safe x
nice interiew he is the founder of the famous plucked type sounds that came from the nord lead you can heard in many trance tracks from other artist as well
I love chicane & still have the vinyl version of salt water & thanks for sharing, great interview, and love his work and other songs & will continue & support his work & DJ and mix his songs in my sets
Fantastic interview, Nick comes across so well, just raw talent, there's no question. He is one of a select few producers we've had in the world. I love the depth he goes into about the production process and the old Atari setup. The sound he managed to produce on Offshore and Saltwater was so so ahead of it's time, and like he says, the fact he managed to produce it on that legacy hardware is nothing short of a miracle.
I love this channel so much! and damn, these legends are getting old, and by extension, so am I xD but some immortal pieces of music on the spotlight, amazing!
Wonderful interview, he seems very intelligent, and very thoughful about his productions which definitely shows in his tracks. Thank you for this great interview :)
Great interview Twan. The best thing about offshore? The breakdown at 3.12 as per the radio edit. Incredible. And on live versions with the electro acoustic guitar. This track is what defines my passion for this type of music. 😊
Awesome interview!! I've always wanted to know the inner workings and story behind that epic masterpiece! I, too, would love to hear an interview about Saltwater, probably the greatest trance tune of all time (in my opinion). From the sounds of it, though, he seems like a very busy man to "track" down LOL!
jayvivaitalia thanks so much! And yeah, next time Nick is in The Netherlands, I wanna ask him about the story behind “Saltwater”, if he has time and if he’s up for it of course hehe
I can acknowledge the influences of Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre in Chicane's work, but Offshore definitely has a Tangerine Dream influence. Love on a Real Train from the Risky Business soundtrack. Not that its a bad thing, they were among the pioneers of electronic music.
I love this interview. Maybe in the future, you could do another chicane interview about SALTWATER? Keep up the good work.
Thank you! And I would love to do that, maybe another time when he's back in The Netherlands ;-)
Seriously... Saltwater is unreal!!!
@@muzikxpress Yeah could be interesting to hear about Saltwater and Dont give it up of course!

That’s so cool!!!! Nick is a legend!
From memory he made an absolute banger on the disco citizens before chicane but couldn’t get the samples released…

The day I no longer get goosebumps while listening to this track is the day I no longer consider myself alive.

uhh he was plenty influential for early bird trance fans
the sound of 90s ibiza
I must have listened to this track over a thousand times. Still love it just as much as the first time I heard it. Ultimate classic!
So good!

Wow, great and detailed reply! Thanks for that! Hope you enjoyed the interview! :)
Saltwater warms my heart and takes me on a nostalgic Time Machine every time I hear it.
Phenominal artist. Probably the one I hold in highest regard for the most inspirational uplifiting tracks in my life.
Chicane is a brilliant producer! Love all of his music and I still own a great many of his CD's!
I remember participation in a super rig, night of the discotheques, where we compete to be the best club in Flanders. Intro was Adiemus - Adiemus and a remix from this, goosebumps alert, and public lost their minds and go into the trip. Still goosebumps here hehe. Understanding mixing and mastering can be chaotic in some manner, leave the working project, doing something else, going back, so he learned it hard way lol, poor fella.
the artist is amazing genious....
my first introduction to this brilliant man. Chicane's beautiful work has been a part of who I am since 1997. :)
💞💞...new music.2021...💯🎵Nick...what an inspiration to the world of music..😷.🥁🎻.🤗✌️💋☘️
So good from a production standpoint to hear that Nick takes a long time in order to let a track marinate. Instead of: "Yeah, man. Tossed off that hit in an hour." He's always been one of my greatest influences. What an amazing artist. Thanks for this outstanding interview.
If GOD listen music then OFFSHORE must be on his playlist.....
Nick, you are just a brilliant composer, this is a great composition when I hear it, all problems disappear and it gives strength and joy
Offshore was by far the best track he ever did, absolute masterpiece with such an ambiance at the end, I’ve always enjoyed his music but this track is fantastic, Hats Off To U Aswell Muzikxpress 🙏
Thank you so much!
Offshore '97 is the GOAT
Love it and he seems such a nice guy aswell.
Thank you Niels! And yes he is!!
Brilliant interview mate, and what an absolute legend Nick is! Love this one :)

Thanks so much! And you are welcome, thank you for all the support as well! :)
@@muzikxpress Could you make a video about Saltwater too, please?
And don't forget to ask the connection with
Theme from Harry's Game!

Offshore is great, reminds me of very, very good times. I still love to lesson to it today. Thank you Nick!
Absolute legend! Love Chicane ❤️
Amazing! It's really hard these days to produce such great songs, to listen again after 10-20-30 years like it was released yesterday.
I listen to this track every week.. Its part of me 💜. Part of My most innocent lovely time of my life when I first listen to this track back in the day of 1997...
My heart was so pure.. Still is, especially when I put this track on to enhance that emotion 💚

every single track from Chicane is great masterpiece, but my most favorite one is Red Skies
As a producer this very inspirational for me 🙏🔥
The legend himself ❤️❤️❤️❤️
😉✌️This guy!? Took months? Glad he finished it. Master piece.
Such a classic right??
What you see is their success, but what you do not see is the hard work that goes into it. Great interview.
Classic track. SALTWATER is amazing.
This tune is my number one tune of all time, closely followed by BT - Flaming June and Lustral - Everytime.
Nice one! And there are interviews about all 3 of them on my channel! 😉
Thank you, for so great interview, again. Greetings from CZ.
Great interview, Nick seems like a top bloke. Offshore is one of my favourite tunes ever!
Excellent channel and content, you deserve more attention, keep it up!

Beautiful song so much memories!!!
Reminds me little bit prodigy singer!
The investment in tracks back then still shows to this day, when production becomes quick and easy, tracks become disposable, unfortunately
I found it really interesting how he Nick said he often listens to music he loves with an ear to figuring out precisely *why* particular chords or harmonies etc 'work' for a specific result.

I love the depth he goes into about the production process and the old Atari setup. The sound he managed to produce on Offshore and Saltwater was so so ahead of it's time, and like he says, the fact he managed to produce it on that legacy hardware is nothing short of a miracle.
Thank you for the nice words!
He is one of my top artists, with BT, Moby, and others who exposed EDM to me. Also respect to Bill Leeb/Ryhs Fulber
Great interview - its a track I always used to start a set with!
I love this channel so much! and damn, these legends are getting old, and by extension, so am I xD but some immortal pieces of music on the spotlight, amazing!

I wonder how much of Tangerine Dream's "Love On A Real Train" influenced Offshore.
Ian omfg! Have always thought this! It’s undeniable right? And certainly not a bad thing!
His Track "Low Sun" the opener from "Behind the Sun" even more. I'm also adding "Global Communication" to the bunch
Ian no doubt. I do however hear more Vangelis...
Wow 👏👏👏 never heard of this. But thanks to you now I have.
totally
Very interesting interview. Thanks!
