I listen to the radio too. You hear things, like the song above, that you forgot. Will always listen to the radio. For me it's SiriusXM.

Li-sa X has made her name on Youtube playing covers of awesome guitar based tracks to perfection. Original compositions are the obvious next step.

If you have an interest in rock/metal guitar and absolutely no comprehension of the Japanese language then this is the music based show for you, Rock Fujiama.....

T99 (Belgium) "Anasthasia"

Yeah, "Anasthasia" by T99 is a Belgian underground track that managed to know mainstream success. But as soon as underground goes overground, it loses street credibility among many clubheads.

Notorious in those days were the high-quality remixes by a Belgian DJ called Frank De Wulf (also highly acclaimed outside Belgium). Two examples:

When this track (with hilarious hyperbolic lyrics) was played in a club, the crowd went nuts as soon as the massive bass dropped from 01:15 onwards (announced by the hallmark 'Anasthasia' instrument): so you got a bass pouncing from the get-go and suddenly an even more savage bass is added. Most who knew that remix were waiting for that moment of bass rumble bliss. A good DJ opened all volume channels to max level right at that moment. Not for the faint-hearted...

Human Resource - Dominator (Frank De Wulf # 1 Mix) (1991)

And this is a sweet one. Musically: a good example of the technique of adding and removing bass (to make the crowd in the club yearning for the bass to kick in):

Jam & Spoon - "Stella (Frank De Wulf Mix)" (aka "The Lost Bet Mix") ((1992):

Oh man, "Dominator" was my favorite rave track back in those underground warehouse party days I used to frequent in my younger days in Seattle.

I heard the track below live before it was released on record. Short-lived Dutch house radio show called "For Those Who Like To Groove" in the early 90s presented by a Dutch DJ called Robin Albers. First hour: fresh house tracks from the US, UK, Italy, Belgium and The Netherlands; second hour: an invited DJ from Belgium or The Netherlands playing a 45-minute set (ranging from 'mellow house' to 'hardcore house'). At some point he played the demo tape of this track without announcing that it was his (in interviews he later explained that he had rather accidentally improvised it together some night). He also tested his demo tape in clubs and it became a house anthem. Got him lots of royalties.

Jaydee - "Plastic Dreams (Long Version (Original))" (1993):

[TiMSport]

Nice. I'm getting a bit of acid jazz vibe going on with that track.

It was an interesting time for me in the early 90s as I was into underground techno stuff while at the same time jamming out to what was then the Grunge rock revolution coming out of my hometown. One night we'd be at a secret invite-only warehouse party complete with half naked girls dancing in cages and the following night we'd be in a cozy live house listening to the latest local rock bands. I was also heavily into UK alternative rock bands as well and would catch some of them when they came into town like Catherine Wheel.

M5Rick knows what I'm talking about.
