The story behind "Calling Earth" by Yves Deruyter | Muzikxpress 180

Subscribe ► / muzikxpress
Yves Deruyter is active in the scene since the year 1985. He started as a DJ and during the years he did play in many famous clubs in Belgium, such as Cherrymoon, Extreme, Carat, La Rocca and Barocci for example.
In 1991 he started producing and his first single was “Animals”, which became a big club hit in Belgium. The success of “Animals” led to DJ gigs at many big rave parties such as May Day, Energy, the Love Parade, Nature One, Trance Energy, Dance Valley, Gatecrasher, Tomorrowland and many others.
For this week’s vlog I sat down with Yves Deruyter, to ask him about the story behind “Calling Earth”, a track which he released back in the year 1994. “Calling Earth” became one of his biggest classics and in 2024 it will celebrate its 30th anniversary! So a good reason to visit Yves in Belgium to talk about “Calling Earth”, his future plans and more!
We recorded the interview in Dutch, so make sure to turn on the English subtitles!
Enjoy and thanks for watching!

Yves de Ruyter, topgozer met beide benen op de grond. Kunnen vele andere DJ's een voorbeeld aan nemen.

[@wannabeactuary01]

Super interview - very LOL funny at times too.

[@djhellraiser-tensionmusic5076]

Amazing artist, DJ, and person! I had the honor to support him back in the early 2000s and he was so friendly and rocked the party! I still have Animals, Rave City, Calling Earth, Back To Earth, and a couple of others signed and play them a lot! 😁

Back to earth (rave mix ) 💣

[@mertmert4098]

This gentleman is the trance "bearer" that introduced me to the genre with his bonkers, outlandish track "The Rebel" in 1997. Im almost 50 now and he will forever be at a very special place - he started it all for me. All my respects and kudos for him. Thank you Mr. Deruyter !

YDR is a treasure and must be protected at all cost

The lyrics:

[@robvanlimpt6874]

Hij heeft ook regelmatig in de el sombrero in reusel gedraaid was altijd super aardig en relaxed

[@harveyspecter1653]

Persoonlijk nooit een fan geweest van zijn muziek - ik geef de schuld aan mijn trance liefhebberij - maar wel respect voor wat hij bereikt heeft. En heb genoten van dit interview. Altijd leuk om te horen wat de geschiedenis was achter zijn nummers.

[@JaapStar2000]

Yves is zo'n fijne toegankelijke man. Eigenlijk alle artiesten uit die tijd. Niks van de arrogantie die je bij de nieuwe lichting wel eens vindt. Groot respect voor deze man. Ook een erg leuk interview trouwens. Het lijkt wel of het dialoog dan ook wat makkelijker op gang komt, maar nogmaals, dat kan ook aan Yves liggen 😊

[@JohnSmith-pn2vl]

Yves Deruyter, a name that stands for quality

[@rudboels3205]

Outsiders for sure 😊

[@frederikjacob1985]

Zalig om Yves zo bezig te horen. Heb het grote geluk gehad om ooit eens als jonge gast met hem in een platenzaak aan de toog te hangen en over muziek te discussiëren. Een moment om nooit te vergeten!

[@teddemore5323]

Yves Deruyter... my god of house

[@gainmaster1]

Sean Dexter remix of Feel Free is an epic tune. Feel Free original also amazing so definetly my fav from Yves

[@dizisnotavailable]

yay finally! "calling earth" what a special track!

[@EugeneKarnak]

[@fezmania5078]
