Armada Music Releases Final Episode Of 20th Anniversary Documentary Series – The Episode Reveals The Story Behind DJ Misjah & DJ Tim’s 90s Rave Classic ‘Access’ Through Its Recent Resurgence.
Inspired by the revival of DJ Misjah & DJ Tim’s ‘Access’ through Joris Voorn’s reimagination of the 1995 classic, the fifth and final episode of the ‘Armada Music 20 Years Classics’ documentary series explores the origin and recent resurgence of the rave hit. In the episode, DJ Misjah and DJ Tim dive deep into how the original record was made – and why the Roland TB-303 played such a huge role – plus how Joris Voorn’s remix introduced the track to a new generation, and how it became one of the favorite records of rising star KI/KI.
