It may be 25 years since its release, but the love for ‘Maniac 2000’ is eternal, according to DJ Mark McCabe.
The music producer is known for releasing ‘ Maniac 2000’, the “song that replaced the national anthem” in Irish clubs.The Anton Savage Show“It's never felt like it's been that long,” he said. “But I had an experience recently which kind of made me go, OK, wow.“Normally when I'm playing gigs it’s 17 to 25 – but this was 30 to 65.Despite Mark recently becoming aware of his own mortality, electronic and house music remain a favourite genre amongst dancers.
“It's the most bizarre track I have ever come across... if I step back and look at it from a producer point of view, it defies everything you’d expect from a track that would have the longevity. “You can understand Candle in the Wind or Riverdance... but Maniac just seems so far removed from all of that.
“But yet in some bizarre, warped way it works, and it continues to keep on going – even though it’s not Spotify.”Mark wasn’t the first to play a remix of ‘Maniac’ - but he certainly did it the best.“Part of the party piece at the shows that we were running, because that's how the station was funded, was ‘Maniac’,” he said.When Pulse FM shut down, the team decided to release ‘Maniac 2000’, expecting to do well with its Dublin audience.
