RE: What are you listening to right now? (The Music Thread)
Don't normally listen to it, but on the Chris Evans show on Radio 2, they were interviewing Steve Lamaq (sp) about it being 20years since Kurt Cobain died and it being the start of the britpop era.

Used to love the music around that period, not only the dance stuff, but the britpop and indie stuff too.
They summed it up, by saying around that time and over the next 4/5 years, everything seemed to be on the up and there was a sense of freedom around then, including the music.

Looking back, it was a good time. The tories were on their way to being voted out, everyone seemed to have a few quid in their pocket, the recession of a few years previous had ended, the music scene was full of proper bands, proper musicians, there was the Euro 96 tournament and Newcastle were storming up the Premier League.
There was some cracking stuff on the telly too.

The music was great though, from the acid rave dance stuff in the early 90s, to the indie britpop stuff in the middle and then the trance of the late 90s.
