Talla 2XLC and Yakooza (aka DJ Wag) deliver a high energy tech trance masterclass on Technoclub Retro. Originally released in 2000 on Overdose with countless remix versions, Cocaine returns in a devastating modern form. Clocking in at 138 BPM, the track relies on a massive techno kick drum, a dense transient punch, and a saturated sub bass tail.

The raw techno foundation allows an effortless transition out of hard techno sets straight into a massive mainstage festival moment.
