Our second Friday Flashback brought to you by Klangwelt – Enjoy!

This week it’s time for another trance massive that made the tour of the world in different versions under the sign of various artists, like Tiesto and Taucher. The question is: who made this track to be a hit in the first place? Well, the answer is simple: Kosmonova. Of course, I’m talking about his single called “Ayla“.

And now I will hear you telling me “No, Ayla was the single of… Ayla”. Yes, it is true, the story of “Ayla” began in 1996 when it was released by Ayla (a project of DJ Tandu). It was remixed by DJ Taucher in the same year and in 1997 was followed by “Ayla Part 2″. But the real success of this tune was brought by Kosmonova.

You all know the track for sure, but I don’t know if you also remember Kosmonova. On his real name Michael Nehrig, Kosmonova is a DJ and a producer born in 1970 in Krefeld, Germany. He gave to the world several hits, like “Raumpatrouille” (1996), “Take me Away” (1997), “Celebrate” (vs. Fiocco – 1998), “Singin’ in My Mind” (featuring Tania Evans, former singer of Culture Beat – 1998), “Danse avec Moi!” (2000) and “Discover the World” (2000). Other side projects of his are Royal Gigolos, DJ Planet and DJ Tyson.
“Ayla” was released in 1997 on the record label called Dos Or Die Recordings based in Germany. It is part of the album called “Supernova”, released in 1998 on the same record label.

Hope you enjoyed this week’s Friday Flashback, until next week I leave you with… Ayla!
