What were your favourite songs ~ 10 years ago...

Just listening to my old CDs, used to be really into Garage and Punk-Rock...but emo punk-rock before the word 'emo' was coined.

Two of my old faves:

Spooky - little bullet
Sasha - xpander
Sander Kleinenberg - my lexicon
Steve Lawler - rise in (nalin and kane mix)
That kid chris - tonight (tribal apache mix)
Rui da silva - touch me
Paul van dyk - we are alive (breathless mix)
Schiller - das glockenspiel (humate mix)
Basco - only you

anything off this, which I bought around 2000 or 2001

Eiffel 65 - Move Your Body
Gigi D'Agostino - I'll Fly With You
Darude - Sandstorm (Klubbheads Remix)
Robert Miles - Children
Rob D - Clubbed to Death
Toby Emerson - Raindrops
Bloodhound Gang - The Bad Touch
Lit - My Own Worst Enemy
Scatman John - Scatman's World

I grew to prefer tilt's version of children with the courtyard mix. Children was still groundbreaking and set miles up financially for years and years

10 years ago I would be 14 so I was mainly listening to gangsta rap. 2Pac, Ghetto Boys, Dr. Dre, Scarface, Notorious B.I.G., Bone Thugs etc...

I was a ghetto little shit during middle school and 9th grade. I started getting into EDM when I was 15 and started to change. I do occasionally have ghetto outbursts mostly when I'm drinking lol. Not like in a mean way, I would just say nigga a lot haha.

I was a product of my surroundings. That shit ended quick once I was old enough to realized how fucking stupid I was being.

Junkie XL - Bon Voyage

yay

System f - out of the blue
paul van dyk - for an angel
system f - exhale
blank and jones - cream
moogwai - viola (armin van buuren remix)
balaeric bill - destination sunshine (dj tiesto remix)
dumonde - never look back

lulz. Ten years ago I was still into Limp Bizkit and Korn.

I was starting to get into better rock like Tool, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin, though, and developing an interest in electronic music that would blow up over the next few years.

10 years ago, huh? I would have been just starting to lose interest in trance, and getting into DnB and breaks instead

10 years ago?



I never understood why this isn't among Propellerhead's most famous tunes. I remember I first heard it in an advert (Adidas, I think) and I was instantly hooked by the organ riff.



And, finally...



I never really cared that much for non-electronic music. If you go back 10 more years, my favourites were Technotronic, 2 Unlimited, and L.A. Style.

<3 Propellerheads

haha this was my time

cass n slide - perception
sasha - xpander
schiller - das glockenspiel (humate mix)
capetown - pitstop
darren tate & johno grant - let the light shine in
the digital blonde - legato
angelic - keep me silent (dumonde mix)
rising star - clear blue moon
starparty - im in love (en motion mix)
aurora - hear you calling (en motion mix)

i could list you 100s so im just gonna stop there lol

Yeah, it's a shame they're no longer active

Favourite tunes in 2000, eh? I was quite heavily into drum n bass and UK Garage in its 2step-phase then.

Shola Ama - Imagine (Asylum Mix)
Wookie - Scrappy
MJ Cole - Sincere
DJ Zinc - 138 Trek
Agent X - Decoy
Daniel Savine - This Time (Dom & Roland Remix)
Die - Clear Skyz
Krust - Kloakin' Device
Triadd - Hydroxy

This was also the time where I really loved the darker and tougher
trance tracks that came out of the "prog"-end, which was often played on friday and saturday nights on Norwegian channel Mpetre by guys like Stigma and Prof. Scuba. They don't really make those tunes anymore.

La Forge - Second Contact
Oliver Klein - Rheinkraft
Silk AM - Pacific
Corvin Dalek - The Atheist
Cliff Tangredi - Shimmer
Attractive Fusion - Morning Exposure
Mindspace - Mind Control

Fuck yeah. I remember when a business client of my dad's brought me their CD as a gift. Fucking love that album.

Haha, he was a favorite of mine, too.

I just liked him because he was shocking or whatever. I went to high school pretty close to Columbine, I even remember the day it happened - cops were all over our school, some with guns in hand. It was just stupid. He was unnecessarily blamed for it, along with KMFDM, et al. I wasn't that I actually harboured homicidal fantasies in the least, it's just that an impressionable teenager is naturally attracted to subversive things, things that they do not want to you to see, to hear.

But in the end, though I appreciated his music and image greatly, I had no idea what sort of subtext he was incorporating into his art. Mechanical Animals was kind of a Bowie tribute conglomeration, sampling from all sorts of time frames of rock music (Paul McCartney and Wings, etc.) and was maybe the beginning of his paranoid, drug-fueled self demise. Utterly on purpose, the crazy fuck. The alchemical significance of Antichrist Superstar would have to wait until I was older, but now I know he is one of the most significant figures of the 1990s, history will just take its sweet time, as it does, to catch up with him.

To this day, it's still one of my favourite albums.

I liked him for that reason, but the music did resonate with me, too, as just about anything noisy and rage-filled did back then. I liked his videos as well.

I remember in middle school there were all sorts of rumors about him. People used to say that he and his band were killing puppies on stage. Oh no, poor puppies!

Haha, Manson would never do that. He loves animals.

//I'll bet that rumour stems from a certain Skinny Puppy concert though. Manson was heavily influenced by SP, and one show in the late 80s, Ogre had a stuffed dog on stage he was pretending to dissect. Cops were called in on animal abuse charges, but it was obviously a very bunk charge. Skinny Puppy did numerous songs and even benefit concerts to thwart animal cruelty and raise awareness on animal testing- like it was the completely opposite reaction of what they were actually about.

Even their name is derived from the idea of seeing the world of man through a dog's eyes- and all of the horror that idea encompasses.

I was just getting into trance for the first time, because it was at the height of its chart popularity and was all over the radio and pop compilations. Stuff like:

Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400
Storm - Time To Burn
Delerium - Silence (Airscape Mix)
Azzido Da Bass - Dooms Night (Timo Maas Mix)

Also at the time I was a massive fan of Jeff Wayne's musical adaptation of The War Of The Worlds, which came from my Dad's record collection. It was a sprawling disco/funk/prog rock concept album with incredible nightmarish 70s sleeve art. The full thing was almost two hours long and it took a whole afternoon to listen to it. Richard Burton's narration scared me shitless as a kid, and it began a psychological trauma that still gives me regular nightmares, even a decade on.

This is the opening track, The Eve Of The War. Tilt did a slamming prog breaks remix years later, but when I listen back now I'm amazed to hear some proto-303 line bubbling in the background of the chorus:

I remember it was rumoured that he was Paul, from The Wonder Years. Lol.
