Tune!

Have a weird memory of playing Saturn Bomberman while listening to a Ministry of Sound compilation CD with that on it, the song almost perfectly synced to the games intro sequence and to this day I can't hear it without thinking about it.

I feel a thread in the making...

Thats such a classic 90's song takes me back to being in school whenever i hear them

I'm not a huge Chemical Brothers fan but I love this and a lot of that is down to the video



And another song I liked largely because of the video



There were probably other bands that did the whole "get our fans in the video" first but none come to mind and these did it before youtube was a thing



I found out they did another version during lockdown 1. It even has a few of the fans from the first video which is a nice touch

Every single time there's someone on the telly complaining about how modern music is full of filthy lyrics that Lady Gaga singing about riding your disco stick will corrupt the delicate minds of the youth, I always remember that song specifically and how when I was about 7 years old I'd run around singing it at the top of my lungs completely missing that the chorus is literally 'E's are good! E's are good!'

Went right over my little head.

When the Shamen appeared on BBC One's Top of the Pops, it was expected that Mr C should tone down the song due to its being broadcast. The group replaced the final lyric "Got any salmon?" with "Has anyone got any underlay?" He was later asked about this in a radio interview, to which he replied that it was not a drug reference but a rug reference.

Just found this gem on the wikipedia page. If that's true that's strawberry floating brilliant.

I'm on a bit of a Japanese music kick at the moment





As an aside, does anyone have any recommendations for bands from Korea or China?

Michel Gondry music videos are always great.

As for the song, the album it's from (Surrender) is one of my all time favourite albums.

I'm currently listening to Orbitals Blue Album atm after recently having a proper listen to their discography and realizing just how bloody brilliant they are.

This through headphones is utterly incredible, the whole soundscape feels like its surrounding you

I always seem put some synthwave on in the background when concentration is required.
