This is going to sound really cheesy, but DJ Quicksilver back in the mid 90s. I loved the song "Timerider" immensely. I was also really into Kosmonova, ATB and Robert Miles. Those were probably the first few producers that got me into EDM. Good times.

Hahaha I've switched a few people to Electronic at work...

A while back my friend John from IT heard me listening to Oakenfold's Homelands Essential Mix and before you knew it, he had set up an internal server full of dance music just for us to listen to! It was cool, we would all put in music in there every day and stream it.

Than, I've been listening to Tiesto's Essential Mix live at Cream and two of my coworkers asked me for copies! Before you know it, they're bumping it LOUD!!!

Not only that, but the day I played at Spundae, I had two coworkers show up and a third one showed up to the last Element.

Only 2500 more coworkers to and The Register will be under my control!

I dont know what year it was(maybe around '92) but there was a happy hardcore song about Speed Racer. Then another song with the Sesame Street theme in the backround(another happy hardcore). that led to small raves her in the LA area...Toe Jam, Old MacDonalds Rave and other underground parties. Stopped going to parties around the time I had my first child(pregnant in '95 delivered in july '96) but soon returned about a year later.

My tastes have changed since then.

Its alllllllllll good!

I remember those tracks Silvia. The Toy Techno craze of 1991/92.

i only found this music about 4 or 5 years ago, came out to visit my brother and we went to spundae before it left circus the first time and i can't even remember the dj that was on, my mind is slipping, but i danced all night and after that sadly the only cd i had of that music was one my brother burned for me and sand storm was on it, yes that old song, and it infected me and after that i finally moved here and within the last year finally experienced some amazing djs: avb, chris l., eric morillo, pvd, kristina sky, phil k., and tons more so i would have to say that after seeing avb i realized i must see and hear as many great djs as i can, it gives me goose bumps when i hear it and can't get it out of my cd player now! partying or sober i love it

Does anyone remember that song?

awe... Monster Massive 2001 was my first rave as well... went with a good friend of mine Michelle aka SweetCandy Girl who I met at CalPoly Around that time I started listening to a lot of electronic music from various cds that I had recieved from people. Although I have liked EDM years before that... it didn't become a passion of mine until after that night at Monster Massive.
