Born in Brazil and currently based in Europe, he has been a constant presence on the world stage since 2013 and is widely regarded for his mesmerizing DJ performances. A staunch contributor to the progression of his beloved genre, the Brazilian native has crafted a substantial back catalog of quality cuts that represent nothing but a sheer passion for underground beats. Like only a select few before him, Victor Ruiz now takes on Binary Finary’s iconic hit ‘1998,’ delivering an impeccable 2023 edit for Armada Music – 20 Years’ Anniversary Album. “1998 was the year I started to play music. On Christmas Day my parents gifted me a bass guitar and that changed my whole life.Fast forward to 2005 when I started to produce Electronic Music, I was really into Psytrance and Trance music. I discovered Binary Finary’s ‘1998’ and it became an instant classic and a favorite. I always dreamt of remixing the original track as it has influenced me so much throughout the years,” said Victor Ruiz about his remix [Binary Finary - 1998 (Victor Ruiz Remix) \[Live at Arca Varzia 2023\]](https://www.youtube.com/embed/fD4RqU1DIYU?feature=oembed) Victor’s immaculate remix guides this historic trance number into darker, techno waters with the use of rolling percussion and a dominant kick. Heartily championed by the likes of Joseph Capriati, Adam Beyer, Armin van Burren, Vintage Culture, Enrico Sangiuliano and ANNA, Victor’s massive tech-trance rendition is a classic reincarnation that’s ideal for that late-night, apex moment; tried and tested at some of the globe’s biggest events and festivals. Tethered to the anthemic spirit of its counterpart through its emblematic trance riffs, the peak-time edit is warmly welcomed by a techno community that has eagerly awaited its arrival over the summer months. **Binary Finary – 1998 (Victor Ruiz Remix) is** [**out now via Armada Music**](https://armada.lnk.to/1998VictorRuizRemix) **You May Also Like:** [Gamuel Sori and Lovespeake Unite for a Dazzling Love Anthem](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2023/10/13/gamuel-sori-and-lovespeake-unite-for-a-dazzling-love-anthem) [Vana Shares Her Highly-Anticipated Debut EP, ‘DIE FOR ME!’](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2023/10/13/vana-shares-her-highly-anticipated-debut-ep-die-for-me) [Kaspar Returns To Terminal M With ‘Imagination’ EP](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2023/10/11/kaspar-returns-to-terminal-m-with-imagination-ep) Share [X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fword%2F2023%2F10%2F18%2Fvictor-ruiz-gives-his-unique-spin-n-legendary-trance-hit-1998.md&text=Victor+Ruiz+Gives+His+Unique+Spin+to+Legendary+Trance+Hit+%E2%80%981998%E2%80%99) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fword%2F2023%2F10%2F18%2Fvictor-ruiz-gives-his-unique-spin-n-legendary-trance-hit-1998.md) [WhatsApp](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=Victor+Ruiz+Gives+His+Unique+Spin+to+Legendary+Trance+Hit+%E2%80%981998%E2%80%99+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fword%2F2023%2F10%2F18%2Fvictor-ruiz-gives-his-unique-spin-n-legendary-trance-hit-1998.md) ## Sagar Deshmukh Drum & Bass head with a tinge of hip shake for Disco.
