Agnelli & Nelson

Chris Agnelli and Robbie Nelson made names for themselves as two of Ireland's top DJs but soon found themselves elevated to superstar status after their first single as a production team, "El Niño," became one of summer 1998's top Ibiza anthems. Spun by many of the top trance DJs and featured on high-profile albums such as Paul Oakenfold's Tranceport, "El Niño" laid the foundation for the duo's newfound career as producers. Their follow-up, "Everyday," which found them moving in a more melodic direction, peaked at number 17 on the U.K. charts, while their third single, "Embrace," did nearly as well, peaking at 29. In late 2000, the duo released their first album, Hudson Street, which featured the duo producing a wide variety of styles outside of the progressive trance anthem template. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
