Control Freaks

There are several artists who use the name Control Freaks. One of those groups is formed by Tijs Verwest (DJ Tiësto), Benno de Goeij and Piet Bervoets (who are also known as Rank 1). The threesome only released one track; "Subspace Interference". This track has also been remixed by Jan Driver and Blu Peter & Sal. Tijs and Benno have also worked together as Kamaya Painters.

Control Freaks was probably first used as a name by London based electronic artists, Glyn Williams and Fraser Trewick , who released the 4 track 12" ep featuring Very Serious Smokin' in February 1995 on Clean up records. The track featured on many compilations in many territories, including Welcome To The Future 3 and Experience in Kool. -1° and became adopted by the 'blunt' smokin skaters of the 90's
