"Our guest will arrive at some point, depends what time The Bill finishes."
DanceNet compilation. Some upfront house from around 94-95. It was what my older sister was raving to at the time and I thought it was pretty cool. I was 10 at the time.

think that was one of my first actual CDs... not including cassettes...
actually the very first CD i bought (though it ain't electronic) was "Smash" by The Offspring... that was when they were still a good band...
i remeber being absolutely amazed at the way you could skip tracks with just the touch of a button
i wish i had a list of every music purchase i had ever made, when and where... could make some interesting reading (for me, anyone else would find it boring!)
i recently realised that i have too much music to reasonably keep in a single home...

FUCK YEAH! I almost said offspring when I first started this thread haha.
Even though its no where NEAR electronic.. i guess it was that grungy/metal huge almost "big beat" like sound that still influenced me. Def to DNB...
you must be around my age, I'm 25. I keep forgetting that there are people on this forum that were buying "tapes". christ we are getting old
Hip hop def helped but I was more into DJ Shadow, DJ Krush if anything.. love thos guys.
Not sure what the CD was, I can't remember, but I distinctly remember the one of the first electro things I ever heard that left an lasting impression was Activ8 by Altern8. It was on a tape my mate recorded and it only had about a minute of the track, but i was hooked.
That drop is still so SICK...

..'top one nice one get sorted'
Hahaha, yeah didn't quite understand the culture behind the music at the time, but I just though that it sounded great and made me want to jump around a lot, which as a 10 year old was what you do best.
Going to have to youtube it...

WHAT!!!!!
'Experience' any day!
Negative. Overplayed round these parts. Same with the Fat Of The Land. Cant listen to those albums anymore as it just sounds like background to me. This goes for a lot of the music I was really into in my youth.
all about the sleeve art, little cartoon pics of em all, streets of rage character selection style
