History

edit

Future Breeze was established in 1995 by producers Markus Boehme and Martin Hensing. Their first major success came with the release of "Why Don't You Dance With Me" in 1996. The track, blending trance with progressive house elements, achieved notable chart success across Europe, particularly in Germany, where it reached as high as 14.[1] Shortly thereafter their remix of Sash!'s Encore Une Fois became a massive mainstream hit all across Europe, reaching the top ten in several countries[2][3] and arguably launching the mainstream success of the Sash! project. Following this success, Future Breeze continued to release a string of singles. While many releases did fairly well commercially and on dance floors, they were never able to replicate their previous successes.
