I can't remember the first song IN GENERAL I've ever heard, but I do remember the first EDM tune I heard. When I was young my dad would always be playing his classic rock music that he listened to when he was younger, so I never really was exposed to EDM. However, when I was old enough to figure out how to use a computer I would go through his folder of mp3s he would play music from. For whatever reason he had Orbital - Halcyon and On and On in his music folder. So I clicked it, and man, it was so distinct and surreal and peaceful compared to his rock music that I immediately became attached to it.
From there, I distinctly remember him noting that I liked it an played a couple of Aphex Twin songs he had downloaded, one was "The Elephant Song" and another one was "The Milkman" or something (where the lyrics were "I...would like....some milk... from the Milkman's wife's tits."
It was pretty bizarre but cool enough to stick with me. Hahaha....
Then I found Prodigy's Smack My Bitch Up video and immediately began to form this cool, distorted view of what I thought was techno and the scene that surrounded it. I was about 13 when this all happened and soon found di.fm and this forum and suddenly I was overwhelmed by this strange new world of music that I fell in love with.
