The youngster has a birthday coming up,so I have been getting together a set of (21)tracks for an all killer,no filler playlist(from his birth year 1996).
The music searchs go heavy on the poptastic hits,so some alternative indie type would go down better.
So far:-
Faithless .. Insomnia
Everything But The Girl ..Missing
The Prodigy .. Firestarter
Underworld .. Born Slippy
The Chemical Brother..Setting Sun
Dodgy..Good Enough
The Smashing Pumpkins ..1979
Fun loving criminals..Scooby snacks
Radiohead ..High And Dry
