Easygoing evening thread, everyone welcome.

Alt:'member the 90s? share happy remenicences.

I fucking love the period 96 to 2001 for music.
1997 was especially good.

You alright Wilf? What's brought this on?

not bad Doze, thanks, feeling very Positive.

the nostalgia, or the unignoring?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:28, Reply)

The unignoring.
You want me to bore you with a list of my favourite albums of that era?
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:30, Reply)

meh, feeling chilled and happy, fairly sure even you can't dent that tonight.
not especially, doubt we agree on the majority. how about we pick a band we both like from the period and agree on how great they were and how shite they are now?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:33, Reply)

Alright.
Spiritualized?
Nine Inch Nails?
Primal Scream (though they are totes bipolar, no offence, occasional flashes of sheer brilliance, sometimes entire albums of duds)
Mogwai? Never recaptured the excellence of CODY.

of those, only NIN.
they were certainly excellent at channeling my belated teenage angst. I lost interest around the time Starfuckers came out. I might have to make up a play list of the 5 or 6 songs of theirs that don't take me right back to The Bad Times.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:39, Reply)

The Downward Spiral still sounds pretty good.
Which is pretty surprising, considering how quickly electronic music dates. I gave Homework and Timeless a listen a few months back; Homework still sounds impeccable but there are a few tracks on Timeless that haven't aged at all well.

I remember being hugely excited about The Fragile, going off to Cardiff to buy it, getting it home, playing it and being fucking furious that Trent Reznor had taken five years to make such a crock of shit album.

True story yo xx
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:42, Reply)

yeah, The Fragile was so underwhelming I didn't listen to anything after that.

Not my kind of film, soz.
And I can't stand most pre-modernist literature. I studied Dickens and it was the most boring shit imaginable. In a bad way.

The late 90's saw the emerging of some epic trance
Got me into clubbing and eventually DJing which kept my bread buttered for a good few years.
( GeordieJay Bummers are deaf, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:44, Reply)

Oh man, trance is shit and always was.
When you were poncing about to PVD it was all Dave Clarke, K&D, Goldie, Grooverider, Plastikman and Peshay round my way.

My golden rule with club music is that if it sounds shit when on pills then it's irredeemable. I tried trance on mitsubishis and lasted about two minutes before I had to take refuge in music which was tougher and funkier.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:47, Reply)

To each, his own
Im quite eclectic but I love a nice bit of floaty vocal trance.

More into House these days, most sub genres.

used to be into Hard House and Gabba back in the day.
So... I've crossed most spectrums.

Hate Rap, Jungle ad Drum & Bass

You hate hip hop, jungle and DnB? But you like 'floaty vocal trance'?

You really are extremely gay.

I reckon it's all about the area you live in too.
Manchester plays far different music to clubs in Newcastle
( GeordieJay Bummers are deaf, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:51, Reply)

It is indeed known.
I live near Leeds, which is the best club scene outside London. Pisses all over Manchester.

Im cracking on a bit now anyways. Much rather sit in a pub than grumble about drunk student pricks who can't handle their drugs.

Back to Ibiza next year though. Love that place
( GeordieJay Bummers are deaf, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:55, Reply)

Ibiza's improved hugely with the club lineups.

I think he'd be perfect for you.

( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 27 Feb 2013, 19:47, Reply)

Nah, I can't stand trance.
As a wise man once said, it's music for plebs and nonces.

All good, hangover subsiding, pub all but empty, chilled one tonight, then I'm doing a line clean, so shit faced again tonight and up real late. Still, day off tomorrow, so I can chill.

nah, we clean the beer pipes, and about 3 to 4 pints is already in the lines
So there's a Fuck ton of free beer. I've got 2 bars so it works out at around 45 odd pints.

What do you do in those cases? Do you ever sort them out to the punters? Even if you had half a dozen staff on shift it'd be a bit of a push.

But usually get a few mates in, or managers from nearby pubs.

By 92 rave had gone shit,
rather than face up to this I smashed the LOL out of it and went back to the hip hop wot animated my middle class prick breakdancing ass in '84. Whilst still bashing the loldrugs. This led to a very confusing time where I'd go to hip hop shows on MDMA. I don't recommend it.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Wed 27 Feb 2013, 20:34, Reply)

I saw Mobb Deep at the Clapham Grand
after a day on MDMA blotters and Hugh Rowlands' bugle and it was horrendous. I also accidentally went to Westwood's Xmas 'people on release from nick' jam sniffed beyond belief, my pal was robbed in the queue, they closed Piccadilly with police barriers before the club opened and a helicopter landed in the street, so we escaped and went home. Then listened to the show on the radio, it sounded great and was clearly not cancelled at all. Gutted. I think Keith Murray MC'd.
