Like in 1997... listening to Power 106 and KIIS FM on Saturday nights.
I'll still go out to clubs once in a while, but after 7 years, I think I've had enough. I go out mostly just to see friends.

Mid 90s, I saw Ferry Corsten, Anthony Pappa, Deelite, etc...

No disrespect but I cant picture just 'having enough' at your age; I suspect you are way younger than myself and others who have posted on this thread. If you feel the beats and you groove to the music and feel it deep inside, how can you out grow out of it? Music transcends age. I can pop a house CD on my way to work 100% sober and bob my head and pump my fists all the way to the office. That feeling translates into the party scene. It has nothing to do with picking up on chicks and being the perpetual club goer, its about the music.

I'm 24 and have been listening to EDM since I was in high school (14-15 yo). I think the first mix that really changed my thinking about music was Oakenfold - Tranceport. I had really no idea that there were different genres back then, it was all techno to me. Thanks to Napster my love for EDM grew and evolved. My first time at a club, Ruby Skye, I saw Ferry Corsten, I had no idea what to do with myself so I stood against the bar the entire time throwing fist pumps, not getting into the crowd once. After that night, it turned into me coming down to SF a few times a year to see the big shows, then eventually turned into me coming down every other weekend which turned into me moving to SF. I still love trance but my tastes have been broadening the past couple years into all of the amazing sounds and artists that EDM has to offer.

It was Nightcrawlers, Push the feeling on circa 1992. You youngins do yourself a favor and google that . How could you not become a dance music fan after that?
I hit the scene hard, I mean hard in the early nineties after that. I remember going to Melrose and shopping at this place called Beat Non Stop and pickin up some rave beanies and going to a party at the Spruce Goose. , andybody remember that? Those days were the ...
The scene died out, and I left it for a bit to persue my own musical interests. I got back into it in 2002 and have been on the dancefloor ever since....
Nightcrawlers, so sick...definitely one of my favs. I still play the original from time to time :p Are you as upset as I am about that string of remixes a few months back? Garbage imo.

LOL Funny you should say, I was going to mention that I was not talking about the Robbie Rivera remix of Push the feeling on or any other remix of that song for that matter. There is nothing like the original and any other attempt to remake that song is trash.
You just dont mess with an anthem.
