Taste in music

I have a really varied taste in music, I dig obscure/not so obscure 80's stuff, barely there minimal techno, uplifting funky house, singer/songwriters with heart, trance anthems for that euphoric feel and pure pop that makes me walk with a bounce. And so much more.

But! Yes, I know that I listen to mostly garbage, mainstream mass produced sick but I can't help that I like it. I know that it's not ground breaking or highly original but at the right place and occassion I love it. If I had to choose between the Beatles or Jedward I would not hesitate pulling the trigger on those annoying irish gits. Björk before Britney, Massive Attack before Madonna.

But there is a place in my heart for all, high and low. Crap and quality. Why should one have to choose?
I have a couple of people to thank for introducing great sounds to me, 15 years ago I was deep down in the Cherion pop puddle, but I got help. But I will not let go of my younger self who knew all the lyrics to Billies top hits and could name all the members in 5ive, Spice Girls and BSB :)

My first album, the very first I ever bought with my own money was the debut album of scottish greats GARBAGE. Still to this day I hail that album as the best ever. First single I bought was the Fugees "Killing me softly". The second was I think, Freddie Mercurys "Living on my own"......in our play room in the country house I grew up in we had 2 cassette tapes: Metallicas "Black Album"....and Roxettes "Look Sharp" (wich I recently bought on vinyl :)

Vive Le Difference! Vive Le....ehum....Musique!


The Sonic Infusions // SPENCER GORDON

Found my way back to the Sonic Infusions by Spencer Gordon. Totally flawless uplifting funky house! Download pronto!
www.spencergordon.podomatic.com

This is my fave mix, quite old but still great: The Sonic Infusion Episode 77 MY HOUSE. Starts with "Amazing" // SEAL (Thin White Duke Mix).


And if you like your music darker and more progressive check out his Halcyon Progressive mixes. Chills down my spine!

"19" // PAUL HARDCASTLE

Back to the roots of electronic dance  music. Paul Hardcastle released several versions of this track in various languages: chinese, german, french and many more. I like the beat beat but could have lived without the that annoying woman in the chorus.... :)
