A native of Utrecht, Holland, Tjeerd Verbeek began recording techno in 1990. As Trance Induction, his first 12-inch "Mindflower" appeared in mid-1991 on DJax Records. "Organic Floppy Disco" followed soon after, but it wasn't until Verbeek switched labels to Prime and released the single "New Age Heartcore" that he began to be name-checked by the techno community. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
