[QUOTE="sirius, post: 42703, member: 258"] Wow, youre on form tonite PW!. Good question........ I dont count a being a young pup at 24 do I???. Well Ill tell you anyway. Its a long story so pull up a chair and make yerself at 'ome.......... Being braught up in a relatively musically viod household (par BeeGees/The Great Roy Orbison/Elvis/Carpenters- you get the picture) and my mates at the time were all into that quite dire late 80's rock pop mushy tripe, I didnt feel that I fitted in any of these musical styles. Late eighties when I was still at junior skool (!) I found I was into rap music and american hiphouse mainstream stuff and dare I say it NWA, ICE T hardcore gangsta rap etc. I soon realised that it was the background elements of this stuff which were driving things for me, so I subconciously drifted to less and less rap and more and more dance/rap/hiphouse stuff (if u know what I mean) and even indie dance cross overs like Jesus Jones, The Farm etc and believe it or not TechnoTronic type stuff etc!!! Then one fateful day, I heard some "underground" dance music early 90's and it just took my breath away!. Awesome. This was the stuff for me! :). Never looked back since. I had a tough time at school 'cos folk were asking what music I was into and nobody really listened to dance music back then around my area, also I was too young by far to be gadding off to Hacienda or even my local Angels for at least a couple of years but the music just took over my life and beautifull electronic music was all that was important.......... Its just a musical journey so far(not necessarily in order), Rap,hiphouse,indie dance, dance, hardcore, breakbeat, italian, happyhardcore,house,epic house, trance, goa etc etc all weaved in and out. So, I cant really comment on the original 'rave' party atmosphere because I wasnt bleedin' old enough!!!, but my life would certainly be void without it!. So there you have it, my life story of how I got into 'Old Skool' summed up in one post. I too was there all along, but waiting in the backround. You may remove those matchsticks and un-sellotape your eyes open now, heheheh. Get a coffee quick before you doze off again :). See ya, Sirius. Seeing how theres now a shed load of posts whilst I was writing this :), I must give my old fuddyduddy view that this 'new' stuff you get bombarded with is a right pile of soul-less w*ank. It makes me despair to be associated with that when you say to someone your into dance music. Ill tell you sommet else whilst Im at it old man styleeee - It gives me bloody headache when you spend an afternoon in a record shop which has tons of 15/16 y.o wanna be djs ploughing through 50 tons of 'hard house' in half an hour one after the other. AAArrGGHHH!. Right, Old man has left the building..........its safe to come out now. [/QUOTE]
