Day 92: Favorite Ben Liebrand remixes

Today it is exactly 40 years ago that Dutch Mastermixer Ben Liebrand made his debut on the radio. Most people know Ben Liebrand from his famous Grandmixes. But besides that he also makes minimixes and remixes. Till today he is still active. He has been an inspiration to a lot of Dutch DJ’s like Armin van Buuren and Tiesto.

The fact that he is doing various sorts of productions gives me the opportunity to create several Top10 lists featuring Ben Liebrand. Today I’m sharing my favorite remixes. I’m hoping to do Top10’s of my favorite minimixes and grandmixes somewhere later this year. But listening to all Ben has done might take some time. Please check Ben’s website for more information on everything he has done.

*just finished the list. I could easily do another Top10 with just Ben’s remixes, there are just too many good ones. I also noticed that I might be stuck in the ’80s.
