Dance Nation (dance group)


Dance Nation is a Dutch dance group.

Biography

Early years (2001-2003)

Dance Nation were discovered by their producers Bradski & Jenski in 2001 when their first single "Sunshine" was released. This was followed by singles such as "Dance", "Words", and "You Take Me Away". In 2004, they switched to the name "Double Nation" due to legal proceedings.

In 2003, they also collaborated with The Lovestern Galaktika Project for the single "My First Love".

2003-2005

In this period, following the label crisis Noculan Music, that struck not only Dance Nation, but also other trance artists such as Noemi and 666 and the general mutation of the music genres in Europe, going House, Hard House and Elektro, lead Dance Nation to land in Japan, where they still have a great deal of success and their production focused in the last years.
From this moment on, the group had a sort of split life, releasing Trance projects for Japanese market and House ones for the European one. In this climate born singles like "Beachtime" in Japan and "I'm Gonna Get You" and the House/Elektro track "Move Your Love" in Europe.
It's because their production are more Asian based than European, that it is difficult to find their releases outside Japan, both in online and retail stores and it's because of that too that no one knows about the release of two albums and a compilation. Titles are Trance Champion, released in 2005 by the Japanese label Avex Productions, containing all the past-released singles, including "Celebrate Your Life", that, listening to some people, should have been the next single; One Nation in 2007 always by the same label; and Christmas Trance in winter 2006, including a lot of popular Christmas melodies rearranged in Trance style, like Dance Nation always did.

Actual situation

At present Dance Nation have released, just before summer, their last single "Ridin' High", that confirms a general move towards House sounds of the European market.
An album is going to be produced too, with an undisclosed release date, containing some remixes of their first single, "Sunshine". Remixes are being collected from their numerous fans all over the world. The release date has been postponed more than once, and it is still unknown. A new single is rumored to also be in the pipeline.
