yeah but hip hop nights are always full of wanna be gangsters...

thats why I like dnb... cos of its rave atmosphere and the added bonus of an MC spitting lyrics... best of both worlds in my opinion... and no FUBU wearing imitation Tupacs...

I like NRG, trance etc but can't do a whole night of it... just lacks personality after a while... whateva floats ya boat I guess

i agree with snowy that the late 90's scene was king. i used to listen to tiesto heaps back then and got a hold of all his sets that were recorded on radio o/s. tiesto is still good of course (being number 1 and all) but now im just not into it (although a set from him in 2002 or 2003 that went for 7hours recorded, 9 hours complete, did almost sway me again)

now my vinyl collection has been replaced with other round objects in the form of a drum kit

I'm confused, where's the hiphop? :)

hip hop has the beats AND lyrics

a guy i buy drum stuff off is in a hiphop group. Fizard. heard some songs, pretty cool, and im not even into it. cool guy to :) (discounts)

98,99,00 were the best dance music scenes when Ibiza really made a name for itself. I bought a lot of albums during that time and my all time favourites would be Ayla - Ayla and Energy 52 - Cafe Del Mar.

I was a big Rave fan back in the very early 90's so have a lot of Mp3's now from the likes of Force and Styles etc. All mine are from Europe where they seem to be cheaper and more readily available.

Reminising is fine but it can't get in the way of enjoying the current day

hahahaha... yeah I laugh at everyone going 'back in the day the music was sooo good etc, etc'

...but if you think really hard, maybe it was just the drugs that were really good...

Anyone used to go to Cage (right near HK)... you gotta have a heap of sugar in your diet to enjoy that place

Well you have to have sugar disoved in red cordial fed via a drip all washed down with a dozen red bulls to enjoy HK. Or alternately....

But thats beside the point. I still reckon the music from the late 90s was more enjoyable and could be appreciated in any state. I'll add some more classic's I'll have playing to refresh the memory (for those that know them)

Faithless - God is a DJ

Three Drives on Vinyl - Greece 2000

Robert Miles - Children (absolute classic still getting a bashing today)

Solar Stone - The Calling

DJ Shakin - Protect Your Mind (For the Love of a Princess)

Tilt - Invisible

Taylor - Calling Your Name

Push - Universal Nation

PVD - Forbidden Fruit

Karen Raminez - Looking For Love

BBE - Seven Days and One Week

Nalin and Kane - Beachball

Faithless - Insomina

For my stupid back in the dark ages mind - the difference between todays clubbing and back in the 90's is that back then is wasn't considered "un-cool" or "too mainsteam" to play the big anthems. Now if you were to go and see PVD and he was to play For and Angel or something he'd be uncool - even though EVERYONE loves it.

So dumb. Its would be like going to see U2 in concert and them only playing B side tracks cause they didnt want to be mainstream. If that happened you'd ask for your money back.

HAhahah I was such a n00b... I didn't even know people took drugs until some Danish guy asked me for some speed then wanted me to sniff his cigarette lighter.

I thought it was only in UK and Europe that they did that.

Personally I loved the music and the lasers. I just wondered why everyone else could keep dancing so long!

Anyone else listen to Tranzmission on RRR with Kate Bathgate?

I used to tape it every week :)

YES YES YES and another big HELL YES!!!!

Thats what got me started. I was 15 and after a few listens to Kate I was addicted and taping the show each week as well.

Finally, someone who knows what I blab on about whenever the conversation turns to "So how did you get into the scene?"

Rocking my world. :Party:

If you can enjoy trance, techno or whatever else you call those 100 beats per second noiseworks, without the aid of drugs, you have too much sugar in your diet.  

You must also love chaos.

:)

OI!

im powered by just the beers thankyou :)

Thought of some more today,:)

- Rollo Goes Mystic "I Do You" ,

- Tomski "10mins to save the earth"

Actually the best 5 songs from this genre of music for me would be (in no real order):

- Cafe Del Mar, Energy 52

- Footprint, Disco Citizens

- I Do You , Rollo Goes Mystic

- Xpander , Sasha

- Symphony , Hybrid

As i wasnt really into the scene, just loved the music, im sure there are countless tracks that you guys have listed that would i love, but dont recognise them. There is one track i actually bought on vinyl as it was the best track ever...gave it to a mate to copy and burn onto CD for me and guerss what, never saw the vinyl or burnt copy, cant even remember the track:(

Then there are all those Tony DeVit, Paul Van Dyk, Itchie & Scratchie etc etctracks. These days any Oakenfold compilation is worth a listening to...that probably means im one of the commercial guys buy hey, the style of music in those compilations is great. Also have a compilation CD of songs from the 90s by Hooj Tunes (Spelling) that is a fav:) It fits in nicely into my set between Pantera and Roy Orbison:)

I'd have to say Snowman is right on the money with his selection of tunes there, it seemed to have a pretty decent run between late 90's to about 2002 when it died in the arse...with respect to volume of decent tunes.

It is good though to see a resurgence of some decent trance though....even though BT has started to go too commercial with some of his stuff....what's he playing at!!!!

As long as MOS keeps bringing out some decent annuals, then I'll stay happy...otherwise it's back to trolling through www.inthemix.com.au to find good music

Saff_cossie was also bang-on with Ayla........Kevin a nd Perry go large hahaha

The Mystery - Feel 4 you ....another fav :)

Also for some strange reason....probably not falling into mainstream dance really but I have got a thing for Love Inc - Broken Bones

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
