Trivia
❓ Did you know that in 2013 "Floorlifter" was Rank 1's shortest stand-alone single duration-wise whilst its successor "13.11.11" would go on to be Rank 1's longest? Excluding Radio Edits and Album versions/tracks, no other singles had clocked below 6:40ish minutes before.
❓ Though Floorlifter might have been perceived as a suprising addition to the Rank 1 discography at the time because of its Retro Trance styled predecessors "Elements Of Nature" (2013) and "7 Instead Of 8" (2012), it was actually a typical Rank 1 thing to make such a sudden contrasting single. Floorlifter hereby followed in the illustrous footsteps of "Beats At Rank-1 Dotcom" (2004), "Top Gear" (2005) and "Life Less Ordinary" (2007).
❓ The title is self-explanatory but for it to make sense, you must have experienced Floorlifter live at an event. Preferably one where Piet and Benno played it live (like Back In The House 2013 at Java Eiland, Amsterdam)!
❓ Floorlifter featured a remix by none other than Leon Bolier Remix.
❓ Since it had taken Leon 4,5 years to finally return remixing favors to the guys for their Lost Luggage (Rank 1 Remix), Benno joked that until now, Leon's promised remix for them was more of a re-nix (a Dutch wordplay on the word niks = nothing)!
