If you were out at night in ’97 and ’98, I’m sure you heard more than once someone shouting, ECUADOR! Blame it on Sash! If you didn’t go out at that time, because you’re younger or older, you should know this track to understand the history of Dance music 👨‍💻

Sash! Ecuador

Trembol | Story behind Ecuador by Sash!

Before we start, a clarification that few people know, Sash! is not a person, but a project of 3 German deejays created in 1995. The known face, and the one who is considered the leader of the project is Sascha Lappessen, who calls himself DJ Sash! when he performes on stage. He is the one you can see in the video. Alongside him were also Thomas “Alisson” Lüdke and Ralf Kappmeier. Another curiosity. If you noticed on the cover of ‘Ecuador’ it says ‘Sash! feat. Rodriguez‘. Many people think that this ‘Rodriguez’ is the one who sings the song, but it is not so. Adrian Rodriguez, also known as Rodriguez, is another German DJ who collaborated on the track. But then, who sings? The one shouting the famous “Ecuador”, is a friend of DJ Sash. You can see him in the video wearing a hat 👒 Ecuador is a superlative party song, and one of my favorites from my teenage years. I can’t remember how many times I must have gotten excited listening to it at full volume in the car. I just hear it and get in a good mood, don’t you feel the same way? I’m sure you do, because since its release in 1997 as part of the Sash! record, ‘It’s My Life – The Album‘, the song became an international hit, reaching No.1 in Flanders, Romania, Bulgaria and Scotland, as well as in the US and Canadian dance charts.

Cuando le enseñamos a la discográfica ‘Ecuador’ nos dijeron que si lanzaban ese tema, iba a arruinar nuestra carrera. Nos insistieron que debíamos hacer algo igual a nuestro anterior éxito, ‘Encore une fois’. No les escuchamos. ‘Ecuador’ se convirtió en un hit mundial.

Did you know...?

The government of Ecuador personally thanked Sash! for using their name for the song, because that year the number of tourists going to the country doubled. It was said to be because of the beautiful images in the video, but it turns out they were filmed in the Canary Islands, not in Ecuador. Although no one knew that 😄
Sash! had five consecutive No. 2s in the UK charts, but never got a No. 1. However, he achieved the Guinness World Record for the most consecutive No. 2’s.
Sash! continues to perform more than 150 shows each year around the world 🌍
