Show notes

In this episode, we rewind to the golden age of dance music with Technotronic — the Belgian act that took the world by storm with their global hit Pump Up the Jam. Blending house, hip-hop, and Eurodance, Technotronic wasn’t just a chart-topping project — it was a revolution in sound.

We’ll dive into the story behind their breakthrough, the brains of producer Jo Bogaert (a.k.a. Thomas De Quincey), and the powerful voice and presence of Ya Kid K. From clubs in Europe to stages in the U.S., Technotronic paved the way for electronic acts worldwide, proving that Belgium could move the whole world to the beat.

Expect iconic tracks, behind-the-scenes drama, and a spotlight on how Technotronic helped define an era — and still makes dance floors bounce today.
