About The Track
Paul van Dyk’s E‑Werk Club Mix of “For An Angel” is a trance classic that helped define the genre in the late ’90s. Originally released as part of his debut album in 1994, it gained legendary status with the 1998 E‑Werk remix, named in honor of the influential Berlin club where van Dyk was a resident. The remix features enhanced production, expanded arrangement, and emotional clarity that resonated worldwide.
The mix runs approximately 7 minutes 43 seconds, delivering a polished structure built on a driving four-on-the-floor beat and sharp, melodic arpeggios. Roland synth pads add shimmering warmth while breathy vocal snippets drift in and out, giving the track its uplifting trance character. It opens with hypnotic energy and gradually builds into a soaring melodic breakdown, before returning with renewed intensity and emotional punch.
This version topped the UK Dance Chart for several weeks and became a staple at trance events and festivals. It remains highly revered by fans and is often referred to as one of the greatest trance tracks of all time. Even now, DJs and listeners consider it a cornerstone of main-room and festival trance—symbolizing joy, euphoria, and emotional resonance.
