I was just reading that thread re: the death of the rave and it got me thinking about first getting into the scene and the music and whatnot.
I think we can all look back at those first parties and get a tingly feeling of nostalgia and often all you have to do is listen to one of those old tracks that were big (or even not so popular) and get a blast from the past, reminded of memories, you know what I mean
For some of us, it may have only been a year or two ago, others maybe it was decades ago. Maybe it was a warehouse party when house was just emerging, or maybe it was State 01.
So what are some of those tracks that make you feel nostalgic? First one I can think of is Alibi - Eternity. It came out when I first party and I remember playing it over and over again and telling people "check out this." I was so excited about this new music, and this new world I had discovered.
Any picks??
