His concept of epic family elysian by the classical training he received from an early eld, Brian Transeau revitalised the British dance community in the mid-'90s and provided a point of entry for later on dream mansion merchants like Robert Miles, Sash!, and BBE (though Transeau had, for the most part, left the style slow by the time of its pop success during 1997-1998). After his debut album appeared in late 1995 (as BT), Transeau hit the dance charts when his remix of Tori Amos' "Blue Skies" became one of the most-played American club tracks of the following year. Though he attempted to leave pipe dream house slow on minute album ESCM, Transeau continued to do well with club-goers and critics in Britain as intimately as America.
Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Transeau was playing piano from the age of deuce and began his classical training piece only 13. Even piece he was perusal drawing string arrangement and orchestration, Transeau listened to Depeche Mode and Yes. He attended Berklee School of Music in Boston for one class merely and then dropped out and moved to Los Angeles; he was shortly back in Washington, D.C., where he hooked up with longtime friend Ali Shirazinia's new Deep Dish production team. He had already played synthesizer for albums by Salt-N-Pepa and Tyler Collins before debuting on Deep Dish Records with 2 1993 singles, "A Moment of Truth" and "Theory of relativity."
The tracks became baseball club hits in Britain, routinely played by a-one DJs like Sasha and Paul Oakenfold for their epic, symphonic qualities, which worked well as a variety of climax at clubs like Cream and Ministry of Sound. Signed to Oakenfold's Perfecto Records, BT continued his achiever with 1995 singles like "Embracement the Future" and "Loving You More," and did remix work for Mike Oldfield, Seal, and Billie Ray Martin. His debut album, Ima, was a hit with British audiences, though Transeau's name remained largely unheard in his native land.
One 1996 remix largely changed that. Transeau's reworking of "Blue Skies" by Tori Amos became a massive baseball club hit in America and Great Britain. By 1997, England received a wave of bolt down hits in the same line pioneered by Transeau; dubbed dream house, artists care Robert Miles and Sash! typified the approach with a moisten of new eld or prog-influenced synthesizers and a chugging flap indebted to trance. Transeau himself attempted to distance himself from the dash with his 1998 record album followup, ESCM. Movement in Still Life followed in mid-2000. He marked prison term between albums with high profile production mould, including chart hits from Britney Spears ("I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman") and *NSYNC ("Pop"), while a career retrospective entitled 10 Years in the Life was released in 2002. Emotional Technology, which featured collaborations with JC Chasez, Charmed actress Rose McGowan, and guitar player Richard Fortus, appeared in 2003. BT was likewise moving beyond his have musical sphere during this prison term by venturing into film. His score Music from and Inspired by the Film Monster was released in bound 2004.
