God the 90's were good, weren't they...
It ends with I am the Resurection...
in the middle something from
the Mondays & Black Grape
Song 2 - was that still in there?
some early faithless
some dirty house
Chemical Brothers
the Shamen - Charlie if I had to pick one but Eberneezer is in there
plus this
https://www.amazon.com/Hacienda-Classics/dp/B000EF7WGG
Needs more Screamadelica : "Higher than the Sun"
And Pavement (anything!) - one of the few 90s bands I still have on regularly.
"Cannonball" The Breeders has slipped by!
"Start Choppin" Dinosaur Jr.
God I hate this 'the past was better' bollocks, but by crikey it was good 🙂

Thing is, what youth movements and/or new styles have there been since the 90s? Grime? Bad gangster rap? What important scenes are going on right now?
The 90s was ace, the perfect storm musically; crap economy, disaffected youth, huge influx of new recreationals, massive availability of new music tech, and on top of that the internet happened. Music changed so fast and so much. Britpop vs rave. Grunge vs house. Happy days.
Out of the last 100 years or so, the only similarly significant (musically) decade seems to be the 60s.
[i]Thing is, what youth movements and/or new styles have there been since the 90s? Grime? Bad gangster rap? What important scenes are going on right now?[/i]
I have no answer. I just prefer new music to old music. (Says he listening to Radiohead 😆 )
New music is always good.
The 90s were particularly good.
Oh, and the playlist would have been whatever the hell John Peel was playing. His show literally changed my music taste overnight.
It seems we are in agreement 🙂
I'd put the most obvious tracks from Screamadelica DezB. I loved hearing Come Together in a club. Rarely played but when it was I was ecstatic.
My list was stimulated by the grubby, poorly maintained club I went to most often only having 2 rooms. One played Indie and the other Sixties. Used to love walking from one room to the next to keep the dancing constant.
Sasha and digweed to start
Underworld born slippy
Bbe 7 days and one week
Sash encore en fois
Gouryella
Cafe del mar energy 52
Paul van dyk for an angel
Robert miles children
Lasgo
Anything from leftfield
Anything from prodigy
Anything from faithless

I don't know if music was better in the 90's, but clubs definitely were. I could find good underground club nights going on all over the shop, now I have to go to London or Manchester, and even then, it's nowhere near as often.
corroded - MemberBefore that it was Torpedo Town and Spiral Tribe in a field in Hampshire.
I was there as well! We used to follow them all over the country (even went to one of their parties in an old library in Rotterdam one weekend!).
"It ends with I am the Resurection..."
Wrong 🙂 that's the penultimate one....
CLUBBED TO DEATH!!!!ftw.:-)
Oh and Candi Satton "the source".
Perfect 'last song' of the nineties would be 'Vito Satan' by Campag Velocet. Released in 1999, languished in the charts until peaking at 75 in feb 2000.
Campags were variously under and over-rated by the music press. I love/d them.

**** me torpedo town that takes me back
The 90s for me was:
Hardcore to drum and base to house, on cassette, taped off your mate.
Ozrics, Rdf, senser, eat static, African head charge (oh yes)
Primal scream, the shamen, the orb
And loads of stuff from the 60s and 70s so that doesn't count
Britpop was a bit meh after that
What, no Mike Flowers Pops?
Some fond memories in here.
Genuinely can't believe that no-one has mentioned K-Klass and Let Me Show You.
I bought that on limited edition 12" and would put it on whilst I was getting ready to go out.
Happy days...
