History

T99 are remembered for one of the heaviest riffs of the early rave era: the huge, ominous synth stab of Anasthasia. It is a slow, dramatic figure that sounded more like an orchestral horror theme than a dance hook, driven by a hard, pounding beat. The project came out of Belgium, where producers Olivier Abbeloos and Patrick De Meyer worked in the wake of new beat, the slow, dark club sound that had made the country a centre of European electronic music at the end of the eighties. Anasthasia (1991) crossed from Belgian clubs to raves across Europe and the UK, and its menacing riff became a template for the harder, darker end of rave that grew into hardcore techno. Nocturne, from the same year, followed a similar route, pairing a brooding melodic line with a stomping rhythm, and Children of Chaos (1992) kept the dramatic tone. T99 did not stay long at the front of the scene, but those records shaped how Belgian hardcore sounded. A listener recognises T99 by the sense of scale: a single dark, stabbing chord pattern towering over a relentless beat.
