Children

Electronic Dance
In 1995, Italian DJ Robert Miles released “Children,” an instrumental trance piece that unexpectedly took Europe’s charts by storm. Built around a gentle, cascading piano melody atop a driving beat, the song pioneered the “dream house” genre of soothing yet danceable music. Miles reportedly composed it to calm clubbers after long nights, and its uplifting serenity made “Children” a timeless chill-out anthem beyond the dance floors.
