EricM's new remix of his single 'Touch Faith' entered Belgium's Ultratop dance chart in the number 2 position this week. It's widely touted to reach the number one spot next week.
Eric's electro house and tech house remixes of the Depeche Mode classic 'Personal Jesus' have been popular dance releases worldwide ever since his original remix was released in 2006. The orginal radio version, along with a host of remixes, have taken the top download spots on services such as DJMR, Trackitdown, InternetDJ and eMusic.
The new remix is proving every bit as popular.
