Rank 1 are Benno De Goeij and Piet Bervoets. They represent a Dutch trance group, formed in the Netherlands in 1997. Widely regarded as one of the originators of the Dutch trance sound, the group have produced a number of dancefloor hits since their conception. Although the 2 members of the group (Benno De Goeij and Piet Bervoets) had worked together before, Rank 1 was their first project with commercial success.
Their biggest hit commercially was the 2000 track "Airwave", which reached #10 in the UK Singles Chart and #25 in the Billboard Hot Dance/Club Play charts. This was later re-released by Rank 1 remixed with added vocals as "Breathing (Airwave 2003)", and also provided the base for a noted mash up with Kylie Minogue by Flip & Fill, as "True Love Never Dies", which was later vocally re-recorded using Kelly Llorenna.
