Very close run ting for me, tough choice between 91 & 92 but opted for 91. That was when I first went out and discovered a whole new world!!!...

Its hard to decide between 95 & 98. Not being old enough for the glory days of raving, I discovered it properly when I got me hands on loads of tapes from the early to mid nineties and I raved my little ass off in me bedroom.

As far as actual raving in a club goes, 98 was the year for me.
Only a small teenager and managed to blag me way into bowlers. Woohooo!!!

had to vote

1990 :- snap, paradox, together, urban hype, the source etc

but 1991 was great :- quite close behind. future sound of london, prodigy, human resource etc

also 1993 was when i started going out again :- mother, helicopter, d-ream etc

But second to 1990 for me was 1994 :- loveland, bros in rhythm, judy cheeks. lots of girls in fur bikini's etc. Mark moore and oakey on top form. LOVED IT!

closely followed by '91 (Hello Doves)
Whilst not wishing to be a pedant, doves first appeared arse end of 90.

90 was deffo the best year for me. People still had the bollox to break into Warehouses, it was when you first got a long period of total consistency (biscuits, new yorkers and of course the aforementioned dove amongst others). More importantly it was when the piano turely became king.
