blissblogger: 5 hardcore tunes that would still rock a dancefloor today
that's too hard - i'm not sure what the calculus would be here - like, which dancefloors are we talking about, which crowd today etc
the things that rocked in 91-93 were sent out to a particular audience, primed through the journey that the music had taken to get to that point, the drugs everyone was on, etc etc
i mean, it's hard for me to imagine any body that couldn't be rocked by i dunno urban shakedown 'some justice' or the house crew 'nino's dream' but it could easily be the case that a modern body - a young body, reared on different types of beat and tempo, affected by different drugs or no drugs at all - they might just find those type of tunes too hectic and rhythmically overloaded, too dirty in terms of production - just incomprehensible
i suspect (i fear) that it would be most rhythmically straightforward tunes of that era that would still work i.e. ones with a bit of 4/4 or linear pummel to them
it's a scary thought that one' s most adored and totemic tunes are not in fact immortal
will 'energy flash' the tune not in fact live forever? orbital's 'chime'?
