By the way, careful about using Darude's name in vain on this board.

Darude has released plenty of other stuff but none were anywhere near as successful as Sandstorm, so he is a pretty good example of a one hit wonder...

One of the guys from Darude? As far as I know, Darude is a one-man show; Ville Virtanen. Maybe I'm misunderstanding. Besides, when a song so generic as Sandstorm becomes widespread, obviously there will be more than one release. But who's to say those songs are any good or ever popular? Music, as well as Feel the Beat, are very poor.

As I understand, Darude started with Ville Virtanen and Jaakko Salovaara, and Heikki Liimatainen joined them later.

BTW, believe it or not, but Darude - I Can Feel the Beat was huge on New York radiostations, which I find really sad...

damned nice too...could stand to hear more from the.

hmmm.... weirdo - photic zone? He still releases tracks, but none of his other ones seem to have been very popular.

veit - sky
freon - heaven's gate
Furry Phreaks - Soothe
Imre Corte - Advance (though I heard a new song from him recently, dunno if it's too popular or not though)
Chac - 7 years
catch - walk on water
main x - 88 to the piano

I would say one hit wonders make up a good 1/3 or so of all track records played by a lot of top DJ's

Yes, that is true. Although Darude is "officially" just Ville, Jaakko & Heikki produce all his tunes and write some of them... so you could say Darude is the modern version of a boyband.

It's quite obvious too where the two "behind the scenes" guys have had their fingers on... just compare Darude's "Next to You" to Dallas Superstars' "Helium"...
