Welcome What you're listening to Today; Thread

That Mantra you are taking the piss out of is from The Kularnava Tantra – Used by Aghori & Kaula practitioners.
It won't mean anything to you but Trust Me it's not something to joke around with.
There was no "taking the piss" by me. Completely your perception. I was actually posting a song that resonated with the harmonies (if you had listened properly to the music). Perhaps it is you taking the piss out of my post & yours (if that's the case!)😉

It resembles the Happy Monday s a bit, influence/ homage or coincidence ?

I would say a mixture of all three. The Mondays are (almost) patient zero when it comes to rave culture in the UK.

Infamously they (allegedly) imported the first major shipments of ecstasy pills to the UK. Thusly influencing such legendary acts as Primal Scream, The Stone Roses and many, many more…

As the house dealers at Hacienda they basically heavily influenced an entire generation and, barely even arguably, changed the UK indie and dance landscape completely 💜
 


Obviously I ❤️ Sly… the rest I could take or leave… mostly the latter ;)

To be clear, I fukkin ❤️ 70s music too. Some of my favourite acts (David Bowie, Lou Reed & Neil Young) had their best years back then. Disco was (occasionally) amazing, hip-hop was founded, punk kicked out the jams… and so on.

However, the 90s were far more revolutionary imo. I don’t expect to sway you with such a small sample but some surface-level highlights include…

Obvious for sure… but also the starting point for all modern rock music imo.

Again obvious, but tell me that doesn’t rock your world. Tight as my missus chuff ❤️

Obvious again cos it speaks for itself… as it speaks for multitudes ❤️

Sticking still to the obvious, doesn’t get more classic or influential than that 💜

Slightly less obvious but still deeply emblematic. The ambient house/dub crossover was all over the 90s… and long may it continue 💜

https://youtu.be/AsiScbpfOqk?si=3y9rHRSqT8pfKL1g

Perhaps not the obvious choice from that album, but perhaps my personal favourite 💜

So that’s my first six. I have many, many more lined up. Bring it on, 70s 😎

EDIT: can’t seem to get video previews for whatever reason. So clicky on the linky, oldskool stylee… I guess 8o

In NL was befor legalisation also suvhcha guy .
Who kinda solley provided the whole NL with quality MDMA.

To bad it was atm bit something i didn t so never had one of that batch.
They were called Salmies, because making a good binder for a pill.
Was unsuccessful, so he ordered kilos Salmiak candy powder,
and used that as binder.

So if you ever hear early MDMA tasting like Liquorice/ Salmiak,
now you know there might be some truth in that.
