Alot of the nineties is quite hazy and a bit vague :guiness; :obscene-drinkingdrunk: :obscene-smokingjoint: etc. etc. :lol: :dance:
However I reckon if you could work out a precise ratio of "good shit" to "pile of shit" you would find it was EXACTLY identical to that of the 80s, 70s, 60s, and every other decade. :ugeek:
Good stuff, Banco de gaia, Underworld, Janes Addiction, Fishbone, Mercury Rev, Jay-z, Sugar, Boo Radleys, Th' Faith Healers, CJ Bolland, Redman, Wu Tang, Sabres of Paradise................ There's loads of great stuff if you're prepared to go look with an open mind.
There was of course loads of crap too, but not (I think) any worse than any other decade :doh:

Actually the early to mid 90's was the best time for EDM.. Killar labels like Eye Q, Harthouse, Time Unlimited, Superstition, Frankfurt Beat, etc were churning out awesome toones. The Permed one has an ever increasing EDM 12" single catalogue from that period.
