The track “Hysteria” is a late-1980s classic from the Belgian electronic music scene, specifically the New Beat genre.
This genre was characterized by a slowed-down, dark, and hypnotic electro sound that emerged from alt underground club culture.
The project: Amnesia was a studio project, not a traditional band, started by Stephan Novak. After creating the first album, promoters Michel Nachtergaele and Bruno Vangarsse brought in additional DJs to perform and promote the music in clubs.
