Fragma – Toca’s Miracle

A reissue of a trance remix of an original: ‘Toca’s Miracle’ was first recorded in 2000 by German vocal trance group Fragma, in response to the original pop song by British pop act Coco Star, whose ‘I Need A Miracle’ had taken the world by storm only four years earlier. Fragma’s version warranted a vocal retake from Coco, whose follow-up recording lent extra beltings and glottal stops to a full-bodied, offbeat trance propeller. Its deft, echoic synth plucks paved the way for the minimalistic neo-trance that would follow in the 2010s and 20s; this is heard on full display on this new reissue, backed up by a Deadmau5-style progressive house version from producer Inpetto.
