The Song that Got me Hooked!! (pg. 3)
View this Thread in Original format

Hmm. A couple things stick out in my head and all made their contributions towards 'hooking' me. There is no single 'hooker' that I can name.

I was a big fan of euro and dance in the early nineties. I still have various Much Music Dance Mix, Chris Sheppard/BKS, and some import compilation CDs kicking around. During this time, a friend at school turned me on to the likes of u-Ziq, Aphex Twin, and The Orb. What really hooked me to electronic music though was buying this CD in 1994:



01. Altern 8 - Frequency (Hallucin-8 Mix)
02. Bassover - Modulation
03. E-Man - Imagination XXX
04. Nexus 21 - Sychologic P.S.P.
05. Rhythmatic - Rhythmatix
06. Forgemasters - Stress
07. Cyclone - Stream
08. XON - Dissonance
09. Project B12 - Let's Do It Again
10. Heavyweight - The Way Of The Future (Cool Off Mix)

A great CD for sure. To be honest, I had no idea what the music was about until after I got listening to it. I seem to recall buying it because it had a cool cover art. I listened to it a *lot*, playing games like the original Warcraft and generally geeking around. I'm listening to it again as I post this. ;)

The first track that will be forever etched in my memory was played at a rave in Guelph, the Hardfloor remix of Blue Monday. I think after I heard that, I realised I was on my way :)
