It’s 1992, and Rolf Ellmar and Markus Löffel have been producing tracks together for about a year in Frankfurt, Germany. The pair work under the artist title, Jam & Spoon, which combines the adapted name that each member has taken on for the collaboration, those names being Jam El Mar and Mark Spoon respectively. Both artists are established in the electronic music industry, El Mar having been part of the formative trance act, Dance 2 Trance, and Spoon being an established dj. Given their reputations, they receive an offer to remix the track, “The Age of Love”, that is already somewhat known in the European club circuit. This track, released two years prior by a project also called The Age of Love, reaches far greater levels of popularity however, after being reinterpreted by Jam & Spoon over two days of production, before influencing trance and other electronic music producers for decades to come.
