'No Limits 2 Unlimited' - A Journey Without Boundaries in Eurodance

==================================================================================

In the vibrant world of eurodance music, few groups have left an indelible mark like 2 Unlimited. Emerging from the Netherlands in the late 1980s, this dynamic duo consisting of producer and DJ house member Phil 'Phil' M. & Dutch singer Anne-Lie 'Tjettx' 'tjakobson' ('DJ Jean' on some releases) catapulted to global fame with their infectious dance tracks.

Their second studio album, simply titled 'No Limits', was released in 1996 by the legendary label PWL Records (Polydor outside of Europe). This sophomore effort not only cemented 2 Unlimited's status as one-time Eurovision Song Contest representatives for The Netherlands but also solidified their place among the most successful eurodance acts ever.

The album opens with its eponymous lead single 'No Limits', a euphoric anthem that perfectly encapsulates the group's energetic and unbridled approach to dance music. With its catchy chorus ('Lemme hear ya say yeah (wow)') and relentless beat, it was destined for chart success worldwide - peaking at number one in several countries including Australia, Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden & Switzerland.

Other stand-out tracks on the album include 'Take Me Up', a frenetic club anthem that showcases 2 Unlimited's ability to craft sing-along hooks ('I'm gonna take me up'). The title track also features guest vocals from house diva Kool G. (later known as 'Cool' G.), adding an extra layer of depth and energy to the already infectious production.

Musically, 'No Limits' stays true to 2unate form - a fusion of Eurodance beats with samples taken primarily from classic American soul tracks ('I Can't Help Myself') combined with Anne-Lie's distinctive vocals. The result is an album that perfectly captures both the optimism and hedonism associated with late-90s club culture.

Overall, 'No Limits 2 Unlimited' remains a quintessential eurodance release - perfect for those looking to dance away their worries on hot summer nights or simply reliving memories of this exciting era in pop music history. So put your hands up high and join the party without any limits!
