Do you miss 90's eurodance?

If it wasn't for growing up listening to acts like Capital Sound, Culture Beat, Real McCoy, YBZ, etc, I would of never gotten into trance music after Euro died.

Power 88.5, Hot 103.5, and Energy 108 use to play tones of great dance music in the back in the mid 90's.

Toronto use to have a rich history in Eurodance.

My question is, do you think Eurodance should come back in one form or another or do you think it should be left in the coffin?

Post some comments.

it should be left in the coffin, but its good to dig up oldies once in a while - a good track is a good track. i think in the next few years you'll see the similar sounds and track structures return with a more modern tech-y twist....just my guess.

i love wayback playbacks on wednesdays. i grew up with euro and freestyle so i still appreciate it but dont listen to it on a regular basis.

I'm pumping this in my headphones right now. IDK, I think they should produce new Euro, even if they had to modify it to make it amazing.
They had some new acts like Cascada, but it was very cheesy.

O yeah here's some freestyle.

masterboy was great as well.
and E-rotic

but one of my all-time favourites is still....

another really good track by first base but was not very well known is Heavenly... i remember blasting this on the wasaga strip and people asking me what it was called because they had never heard it before

Eurodance is awesome. I swear at least once a month I get drunk and end up taking a Youtube trip down memory lane, at very high volumes

where can i buy freestyle mp3s? i wanna put some on my USB drive in my car. at least 192kbps though...

Posted by Matt4587 on Jun-09-2012 02:29:

Forget 192 kbs. Go with 320.

Just download "soulseek".

It's the best for finding EDM. Better then any P2P I have ever seen in my life.

soulseek is still around? lol
i dont trust p2p. i remember so many viruses going around back in the day embedded in music files.

No offence, but you sound like an amateur.

The virus were on limewire. Usually mp3's without the "-" hyphen in the track name.

I've never come across a virus downloading an mp3 on soulseek. I use it because it's easy to find 320 kbps, and tones of remixes.

I also can download individual folders from other users.

i may be amateur or whatever you want to call it but i only download scene rips and those were quite rare on p2p as private ftp were the best source for those... at least thats how it was many years ago. i dont know if things have changed since then.

Z103.5 has been shit for years. They just play whatever is handed to them without doing the real research independent DJ's do.

Look at the mainstream music of today vs the 50's.

Top hit from 1960

Top hit from 1990

Top hit from 2009
