imho it pisses all over the stuff that got played to death all over this country bitd.

Totally agree.

There was so much more, to those styles of music (Trance, House, Progressive etc) that got played over here, than just those specific Asylum, Sides, and Olympic tracks, that hardly (or never) get a look in. Think that's why, i got fed up listening to them tbh, very small pool of music to choose from, when you think about it. They're all still classics in their own right, nothing against them, but i've heard most of them way too much at this stage.

I'm with you on this aswell. Don't really listen to any of the old trance/prog/house anymore. Just doesn't do it for me the way it used to. Think I've gotten bored with it tbh. Saying that though there are still a few tracks that bring a smile to my face any time I hear them.

Techno and acid house (both old and new) is what I'd listen to mostly nowadays.

Some of my best ever nights clubbing have been over the last 2/3 years when certain techno djs have been over. Hard to beat a good club with a good crowd being rocked to it's foundations with some bangin techno

Twisted Pepper, is the obvious club there. Love a good Techno night myself, Jeff Mills in the TP last year was ace, place was rammed, and great atmosphere. I have to say, i agree with you about the clubbing. I've had some really top top nights, in the last few years myself. Techno, Drum & Bass, are my fav styles of modern music. I had some really memorable nights in the past as well, but i feel the music these days, suits me a lot more than the older stuff. Still love my Breakbeat Hardcore/Jungle though, and that night in Fibber's a couple weeks back, was just what the doctor ordered. But i listen to a lot more newer music these days, and the TP always has some really top underground talent over. Apart from the commercial crap (House/Trance) that everyone and their dog is into these days, i think the Underground club scene, is booming in the city, it's a great time for music lovers at the moment.

some harder belters from the collection

Last one, always had a bit of a soft spot for this

This is the error:

anybody any ideas.I've checked it meself in google.But it's hard to understand some of it.I did try a few of the solutions but they did not work.

So any help appreciated.

Try VLC media player http://www2.downloadster.org/vlc-media-player/ best media player i've come across anyway.

Think this is worthy of this thread, while i wouldnt have been a huge fan of 'Gangsta rap' in the eraly 90's, i was blown away with the hard edge of this album that has all the anger of the LA riots contained in it, all the warning signs were there before it happened being one of the messages in the album,

Released in 1992 & re-released in 93, i would have picked this up in 93.......20 years on it still sounds very raw & edgy when you listen to it, the explosive danger of the racial tension in LA at the time can be felt from this album.....................:mad:

Played this to death when it came out but never got tired of it. Still listen to it occasionally to this day. One of rap's greatest albums and so relevant to the times. You can definitely feel the anger in Cube's voice in a lot of the tracks.

and I think trainspotting kinda ruined it

Thought i'd up this here, so all you peeps that loving spilling the beans on track names, can go to work . Some really nice tunes on this, not the run of the mill Asylum anthems. Some wicked Hard Trance, mixed by DJ Heavy back around '94/'95 (i think).

Anyway, enough from me, enjoy the tunes, and fill in any track list gaps ya's can
