Rank 1

Rank 1 is a Dutch trance group founded by Piet Bervoets and Benno de Goeij in 1999. Although Piet & Benno had worked together since 1997, Rank 1 was the first project which saw them achieve commercial success beyond the Trance scene. Widely regarded as one of the originators of the Dutch Anthem Trance sound, the group have produced a number of dancefloor hits since their conception. As of January 2025, their most-streamed tracks on Spotify include "Airwave", "Superstring (Rank 1 Remix)", "Awakening", "L.E.D. There Be Light", "This World Is Watching Me", "The Anthem 2003" (originally released under the alias "Sensation"), "Such Is Life", "Symfo" "Wild And Perfect Day", and "My Enemy (Rank 1 Remix)". In recent times they've also enjoyed success with "The Greater Light To Rule The Night" and "Destination". This chart reflects the top streamed Rank 1 productions on Spotify: 18 of these have surpassed 1.000.000 streams. Tracks are ranked by cumulative streams since their release; only the highest streamed versions of a track receive a ranking number. The 2014 rework of Airwave and 2016 rework of Superstring were treated as new releases, hence they have been included in the ranking as such. The first Rank 1 release was an EP containing "The Citrus Juicer" and "Black Snow".
