Neon Nights Show #033 “Culture Beat Interview” “I know what I want, and I want it now…”
The story of Culture Beat is tightly connected to the history of German Dancefloor. For more than 20 years Culture Beat are receiving worldwide recognition and many millions of records and downloads sold are solid proof.
I have the pleasure of chatting with Jackie Sangster, lead vocalist of C ulture Beat in anticipation of Culture Beat’s upcoming Australian appearance on the 90s Mania tour!
Their smash single „Mr. Vain“ was a worldwide hit in 1993 – scoring at No.1 in as many as 13 countries (among them Germany, The U.K. and France) and became a club classic. Equally successful was the album “Serenity” – with its additional singles “Got To Get It” and “Anything”. An album that many experts judge as a milestone in the history of dance.
Culture Beat was founded in 1989 by the late Torsten Fenslau – a DJ at the legendary Dorian Gray Club in Frankfurt. After his tragic death in a car accident at the end of 1993 his younger brother Frank took over C ulture Beat and produced the albums “Inside Out” with the hit Singles “Inside Out” and “Crying in the Rain” and “Metamorphosis” with hits like “Rendez-Vous” and “Pay No Mind”.
As a producer driven dance project, C ulture Beat featured various artists. C ulture Beat started with the German cabaret performer Jo van Nelsen who was followed by the American rapper Jay Supreme and the German singer Lana E. In 1993 Lana left and was replaced by the British singer Tania Evans. Tania stayed until 1997 and was succeeded by the American Kim Sanders. In 1998 Jay left and since then C ulture Beat is represented by only one vocalist. Since 1999 the British singer Jackie Sangster is fronting Culture Beat. At shows she is supported by the Greek MC 4T.
Culture Beat will be touring Australia in March, and appearing in Melbourne on Saturday 12th of March, 2016 at the Trak Lounge Bar.
