Support the independent voice of South Florida and help keep the future of New Times free.
When the beats and crescendos of Tranceport hit our collective ears in 1998, it exploded all over South Florida like a firecracker. The album exemplified the trance of the time, and we couldn't get enough.
Paul Oakenfold was already known in the world of electronic music, but this was the British DJ's American breakout hit. He has been spinning distinctive sounds since the 1980s, when he established his Perfecto label.
"Ready Steady Go" even appeared in The Bourne Identity, but Matt Damon ran to it instead of dancing in a club with 10,000 other people. Sweating is good either way.
How most Americans first remember Oakenfold.
Trippy, dude.
Maybe you recognize that voice from the sad puppy commercials?
RIP, Britney.
Keep New Times Broward-Palm Beach Free... Since we started New Times Broward-Palm Beach, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of South Florida, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism.
