Gen Z kid: “OMG I never heard this version before.” Me being a millennial boomer: “You mean…. The original version?”
Lol millenial boomer. I feel this mood
you read my mind!
You're probably a zoomer yourself, born in 99, pulls up the Z is after 2000 argument, bs.
And? Its still a version. Just like you yourself stated.
bro, you spoke my MIND
These songs define "Techno" roughly as well as the Beatles define punk rock.
I know exactly what you're trying to say but you could argue that Helter Skelter is a progenitor of punk rock...so really what I'm trying to say is you're being unfair on the Beatles here lol
@@jedsithor the best part of any Beetle song is when they finally shut thefuck up.
@@jedsithorthe funniest shit to me is when people like you claim songs that have no tie to Proto punk or punk are pregenitors of the genre. The stooges, MC5, the velvet underground and the kinks have way more of a claim to that title than the beatles.
Not a single Prodigy track, honestly Americans just don't know electronic music.... The fact that they had to put electronic Infront of Dance Music to state it's electronic is evidence of that, All Dance Music is electronic.
What is today called "Eurodance" was called techno in the 90s and not without justification. Many songs of that era like for example "Twilight Zone" by 2Unlimited (rap version) , are not far off.
Hello from Germany! None of it was techno, it was nineties dance music! Techno is something completely different! Such music would never be played at a techno party, any DJ like that If you played something, you would be cut up by the audience! But for Americans, it's all Euro dancing. Greetings Nephilim
Besides Sandstorm.. heard it in US raves back then... Autechre ~ "Lowride" The Prodigy ~ "Weather Experience" Lustral ~ Everytime (Red Jerry Mix) DJ Santana ~ Take Me Away Tony Allen - Take Me Higher Lustral ~ Everytime I close my eyes, I see your face (multiple remixes of this is good) DJ Laz ~ Red Alert
Auch als Deutscher, die einzigen beiden Nicht-Eurodance-Songs waren Zombie Nation and Cascada 😅
None of these are Techno either.@@KendrickJ2
@@justneil6885you're wrong. Ever heard of colloquialisms... maybe we should teach people in Europe about this.
Techno was awesome
Not really techno songs at all in it, but a nice playlist.😊 What i miss: - Gigi D'Agostino - Mauro Picotto - ATB - Tiësto - Bomfunk MC's - Music Instructor - Mr. Oizo - Captain Jack - Members of Mayday - Scooter/Ratty And a few more.^^ The 90s/early 00's were a great time to live.
Tiesto still has residency in Vegas too. I had just heard it the other day & I went "he's still doing that?" and some punk ass kid was like "what do you mean he's new" WTF lol
Should we tell Americans that Eurodance and Techno are Different Genres ... ?
Some of us know that.... just not the producers
Well they did say Techno,Electronic and Dance...
I tried in a recent comment but nvm I guess 😂
Don't get me started. That's gripe #2 after hat-dude talking bout memory lane. Maaaan don't even! Lol
It's pretty obvious.. lol 😂 most if us know. Those who don't know just don't know and that lack of knowledge and research.
Put Europeans of the same age at this, we know all of them from the first note
So true XDDD
Exactly 😂 i was shook they didn't knew
Especially German and Italian younger gen Z, i'm sure almost all of them would know !
congratulations
Not just Europeans, the entire Latinamerica as well.
As a nineties kid it hurts that they didn't explain that the discovery album (daftpunk) was a whole animated movie. Very big part of my childhood and taste in music!
...Netherlands, Germany, Italy and UK in the 90s were, and still are the main source of electronic music...
And Belgium
@@Qubie1and France too, but mostly for House / Techno / Electro... than Trance & all...
I will never understand why Gen Z people are so disconnected from the past. I am a late millenial early gen z person and I know music from the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, the 00s and I love music from the present.
They don't listen to radio so all they get is what's fed to them by algorithms.
hows that different than saying "fed to them by radio"? xd
As a (german) Gen Z, I would say it's only the ones from the US that are disconnected
@@m1chal20 Because algorithms create a bubble that ostracizes what's old and gives priority to what's new, whereas radios had more variety and usually gave more space to oldies.
Unless it's on the radio or prominently featured on Spotify. I don't expect them to hear a lot of these songs play very often without the need for them to go out of their way to listen. Which is a shame, since one should always try to broaden their horizons when it comes to experiencing anything
None of these songs are techno. They're Eurodance, commercial house and some commercial trance. They're absolute bangers, but I'd expect a channel with the kinds of resources this one would have to at least do their homework and not get it so wildly wrong.
this
They should have played stuff like Jeff Mills and Laurent Garnier, but there's no way kids today would recognize any of that. To be fair though, techno is a very loosely defined genre.
I get ya but techno was used as a catchall outside the dance music world. And pre-internet, people just used the catchiest sounding name to describe this music. I somehow heard the term techno before anything else back in the days and would probably have used that term incorrectly to describe these. Not like anyone here will pick out a richie hawtin track. Think of it as a gateway term, those who will dig will find the real stuff... doesn't help that techno snobs are the most particular kinds of fans.
@@BrianGon89 It's cause previous generations thought if it was made with computers and electric gadgets it didn't count as 'proper music'. As of now it's way more accepted.
We just need to fill the comment section with actual links to techno songs or discerning different genres! I am surprised they are not using more resources to to be a little more accurate. It’s more on the producers of this show not the guests to be a just a “wee bit “more informed. These are easily classified as “not” techno. At least they didn’t put House music in the title! I grew up very poor without access to any resources until I was in my early 20’s(2000’s). I used to group music together into wrong genres. It made it harder to figure out how to find what I liked (especially in the age of cds 😂). Also, I was so embarrassed to talk about music in general. _(┐「ε:)_ ….halp……Now at 40, living in Chicago , surrounded by resident DJs….a DJ saved my life…..So my music education has finally leveled up! Lmao
For those interested: The video for 'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger' by Daft Punk is part of a feature length animated movie they released called: 'Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem'. The movie has no spoken dialog, instead the audio is all songs from the Daft Punk album 'Discovery' in order, making the movie basically a music video for an album. So if you liked the clip, give the movie a try, because it also has a fun story to tell.
The daft punk music video is actually a snip from an anime movie they produced for the rest of the album, Interstella 5555. The movie has the whole album Discovery set to anime
They were so ahead of the times.
Jaxon is still the champion. This is one of the best episodes ever. You need to do an entire Daft Punk episode, just showing people this many iconic Daft Punk songs
Bring Eurodance back, I had so much nostalgia listening to this song.
Eurodance is back but not in the mainstream. Check out Julian Muller, Narciss, Dj Heartstring, TDJ, PROXYMA, Grand V, Marlon Hoffstadt
As a german i gotta ask: WHERE IS SCOOTER?
and i must ask HOW MUCH IS THE FISH
Als deutsch auch 😅 wo sind ATB, Brooklyn Bounce, Sash!, DJ Quicksilver, Cosmic Gate, Master Blaster, Special D, Paul van Dyk, Members of Mayday, DJ Samy and Yanou
Wir wollen wissen wie viel der Fisch kostet 🤣
Als Schweizer: wo ist Dj Bobo 😂😅
@@goldenrain87 lustig 😁 du hast mich viel zum Lachen gebracht 🤣🤣🤣
It is universal. Not one person. Not one. Can resist dancing to Cascada’s “Everytime We Touch”
And now there is a even better techno version of this song by electric callboy
@@hannablackcat6096 The original song by Maggie Reilly we always be superior to any cover version.
As an older gen z (1998), ALL these songs were my childhood. If it was a try not to sing, I would’ve lost 😂
My best friend and i’s all time favorite songs to jam out to. Sooo good!
But your childhood begins in 2002, you have awesome parents who listen this oldies of the mid and late 90s and early 00s
I wouldn't call that losing. 😄I sang along to every single one of those songs.
@@slayercfv Depending the country, most of these songs were still popular/mainstream early 2000's, especially at parties/weddings !
@@slayercfvnah, early internet kept these songs alive for a while through memes and such. I’m a little younger than OP and knew pretty much all of these lol
As a Gen Z, I PROMISE we’re not all like this lmao
prove it
You mean you don't say "YAAASS" every 5 words?
Gott sei Dank!!! Thank God, it was painful to watch this
They were so zesty
Elder gen Zer?
For those who don't know, Daft Punk's music videos are a movie they had made. These animated videos/movie was created by the same people who made the cult classic anime Captain Harlock and movies like Galaxy Express 999. There were other animated series by them as well. I thought it was amazing that these animators were still creating and that Daft Punk got them to make their music video movie for them.
While Americans were hearing only country, pop, hip hop and R&B, the Europeans were dancing on heavy electronic house/techno sounds. For us ravers, this kind of music was way to commercial. Although it started in the 80s, in the 90s those little Belgians, together with the Germans, pumped so many crazy hard techno and trance records in to the world that roofs of clubs flying off. Not to mention the countless legendary clubs that Belgium had in those days, Dutch, German, French and uk folks came over to dance here. In the 2000 whe had a lot of Belgian Euro dance bands, like Silver, Milk Ink, Mackenzie ft. Jessy , Lasgo, Zipora, Astroline... To many to mention.
We had raves that started at 3am in abandoned warehouses (that would get raided by police at times)... you just aren't aware of life here in the US back then... the songs in the video were more dance club music(maybe with rave influence)... To get an idea of what we heard, if you're interested: Autechre ~ "Lowride" Moby ~ Porcelain The Prodigy ~ "Weather Experience" Lustral ~ Everytime (Red Jerry Mix) DJ Santana ~ Take Me Away Tony Allen - Take Me Higher Lustral ~ Everytime I close my eyes, I see your face (multiple remixes of this is good) DJ Laz ~ Red Alert We had a lot of trip-hop, jungle, ambient, et cetera.. DJ's in local scenes (not international scenes).
Jaxon is truly a man of culture lol I love this kid.
Jaxon was about 10 the first time we met him.
these kids are great. "all these songs start the same" I just want to clarify for anyone who doesn't know: that's for DJing. the similarity at the end and beginning of the track is so you can match beats easier between songs and is often a courtesy by electronic music creators (producers) for the dance floor
More than a courtesy, but by design. You're not meant to listen to this stuff sat at home, but in a club with it all mixed together. Of course, there would be more variety if they'd chosen a wider range of music than just eurodance.
@gnu_andrew Me listening to same 90's EDM playlist over and over again at my home and in my car : 😶
BPM also plays a part. "All these songs start the same" is beyond false and irritating. They don't, there's differences, it's just that these kids seem to only hear what they want to. Sad.
Since this has been eurodance and not techno, I miss Gala, Gigi D'Agostino, Mr Ozio...
So many missed opportunities, I hope you do a part 2 (or 3, etc.). I loved Techno/Electronica in the 90s and early 2000s. Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Fatboy Slim, Moby, Orbital, Future Sound of London, Fluke, Photek. Good Times.
We mustn't forget Scooter 🤣
THIS!!!!! So many were left out because they weren't associated to certain life-styles and or genres.
They had no idea of good music so they can 't miss 'em.
Someday will come a generation when the question "what is love?" is asked, won't imediatly respond "baby don't hurt me". And that is distressing to me
"Vlad a slav"
… no more
3:42 "it's like an anime" it actually is! it's a whole film set to daft punk's discovery album, animated by toei. it's called interstella 5555 if anyone's interested. it purposefully uses leiji matsumoto's (captain harlock, galaxy express 999, etc.) art style
Most people in this comments section need to take their heads out their asses for real, the music is great, the kids are just having fun listening to it, and yes none of it is techno, most in just dance electronic (like you know, the title also says) they enjoy something, is bad, they dont like something, is bad. You all just want an excuse to hate on anything really.
Great comment.
It's almost constantly in each of these vids from React.
As a European I know literally every single song played 😭🤣
Also as AN European I know that this is not techno and such, this is almost all Eurodance (and two house tracks) and nothing to do with good electronic music.
As a Brazilian I know all of them, just the other day I was shocked seeing a Korean guy not knowing even one, I've thought they're famous all around but guess not so much 😅
At the raves in US, we did here Sandstorm though... the rest of the songs were played at regular dance clubs. Many local scenes and DJ's... lots of trip-hop, jungle, Ambient, et cetera.... many raves that started at 3am in abandoned warehouses that sometimes got raided by police. Tony Allen - Take Me Higher The Prodigy ~ "Weather Experience" Lustral ~ Everytime (Red Jerry Mix) DJ Santana ~ Take Me Away Lustral ~ Everytime I close my eyes, I see your face (multiple remixes of this is good) DJ Laz ~ Red Alert
Jaxon knows so many different genres, and I honestly gotta say that boy has good taste!
Wunderbar taste. Ja.
Dragostea Din Tei not being here is a crime bro
I was just thinking that
MIA HEEE MIA WHO MIA HA HA !!!
Despre tine.
O shit yea real crime have wacht te en but this hurts so bad
Old music more fun than today music... Fact
100% true
@@bernardodibrum it's not a circle of life, it's how everything going worse and worse till end.
100%
me as a millenial who grew up on literally all of these songs watching this reaction: they are a little confused, but they got the spirit.
exactly
Every time Jaxon breaks out his impressions I lose it 😂 Dale!
Man loves him some Mr. Worldwide! lol
When the guy says "I really like this version" ...and its the original song 💀💀💀
🤣🤣🤣
My blood started to boil a bit 😭 Especially bc Daft Punk is so unique and one of its kind
I love when they say "They all sound the same in the start." and i've known ever song in the first 2 seconds lol
This is commercial dance music… bless their lil tik tok socks..😂🤣
😂😂😂 ah we are old if we know what rave techno were
I know I'm very repetitive, at this point, but JAXON is, pretty much, a music encyclopedia.
these are so mainstream tho
The VENGABOYS has multiple hit songs in other countries. They were big in South Africa, "We Like to Party," was one I remember from back in the day.
Kiss when the sun don’t shine was my tube when I was like 7.
Imagine how mind blowing it would be for that kid to learn the lore of the Vengabus
No Rhythm is a Dancer or Mr Vain on this was TRAGIC.
Now I understand why go to the club in America sucks but in Europe and Latin America is the best
OF COURSE WE DO, WE GREW UP IN THE DANG 2000s, WE DID NOT SPAWN MAGICALLY IN 2018 WITH AN IPHONE IN HAND
Jaxon could have a rather prominent career as a voice actor if he really wanted to. His accents are pretty spot on
Funny, the reason they all recognize the songs, is just because all of them have been sampled in new songs.
or gone viral in Tik Tok clips.....😅
They're learning the originals to most of the remixes they listen to 😂
For the people that don't know, that Daft Punk album was a movie and also a video for ALL the songs. The movie is called "Interstella 5555".
Thankkkkkk you. Was looking for this comment! I remember watching Interstella 5555 and the Gorillaz MVs on Toonami growing up. And the 5555 stands for Story of a Secret Star System, right?
@@laurabuzali6711 Correct!!
As a fan of 90's Eurodance & EDM, I approve of this.
Yes, finally some music that I'm able to enjoy. Although the selection of songs included in the video is only of the most popular/well-known ones and the term "Techno" is inaccurate, it's still refreshing to see this kind of music get represented in a reaction video. And this is pretty much the closest it's gonna get to what I actually listen to on a regular basis (for specific examples, you can take a look at the music playist that I have on my KZhead channel).
@@evolt7553 TBF they do mention Trance & Eurodance throughout the video
It was so cool with me being 49 years old watching these Gen Z youngsters getting down to music I loved since those songs came out.
4:15 knowing the kanye west version and not the original it's like only knowing US vomit chocolate and not real chocolate.
It because more popular than the original, so can you really blame them? Blame the ones that streamed Kanye’s version
Having been a teen in Europe in the 90s, the thought of not knowing ALL Vengaboys songs is sacrilegious!😂
Jaxon is so charismatic in these videos, he needs to host his own show
Sandstorm...man...I'm a 3rd grade Special Ed teacher, and if my students have been really good all day, right before it's time to get on the bus, we turn the lights out, turn on Sandstorm with a cool psychedelic light show youtube screensaver, and each kid gets a laser pointer and we just go HAM.
You are the best Special Ed teacher
I'm picturing this now..yep, that's maybe the most wholesome thing I've ever imagined.
Sounds like a great time with the kids 😂
Techno & Eurodance paved the way for modern EDM.
NONE of these tracks is techno. It's trance, dance, house, electro and eurodance, but not techno.
All Eurodance... Darude - Finland Alice Deejay - Netherlands (the DJ from that song DJ Jurgen is actually from my hometown of Delft). Daft Punk - France Vengaboys - Netherlands Benny Benassi - Italy Cascada - Germany Eiffel 65 - Italy Zombie Nation - Germany ATC - Germany DHT - Belgium Corona - Italy Haddaway - Trinidad/Germany Nightcrawlers - Scotland Europe rockin the dancescene back then, and still rockin it now.
Nightcrawlers - Push the Feeling on was more of a Clubhouse song though imo, bit like DJ Jean at the time.
@@ElMariachi1337 True, but in the end it's all EDM.
I wish they also reacted to Basshunter, even tho he’s swedish His songs were no.1 hits here in italy
@@suenky1991 Boten Anna (2006) was a hit, but not as big as these numbers all over the world. I know a lot more i would choose to show but time is limited so they had to make a selection.
No Chemical Brothers? No Crystal Method? Fatboy Slim? Hell, even Moby at this point. Was TikTok your only research source?
The fact that Crazy frog was not featured is a travesty
Funny story about The Vengaboys. The Vengaboys is a Dutch act that was put together by two Dutch music producers, one of them who at the time was also a Veejay on the Dutch music channel TMF (The Music Factory) and yet no one in The Netherlands knew that for years until 1998 when they released their biggest hit We Like to Party. Before that Dutch people thought they were from Brazil because that's what the two producers wanted the audience to think and why members of the group whenever they were interviewed by Dutch media never spoke Dutch until it was finally revealed in 1998 that most of the members could speak Dutch, including Kim Sasabone who is the lead singer of the group. They're literally the most successful Dutch group of all time, beating 2Unlimited and yet for years people thought the group was Brazilian
legend has it, they are still waiting for techno tunes
They play them today because the late 90's/00's was lilterally the pinnacle of UK/Euro Dance Culture, practically everything I hear today is sampled from back in the day. Unfortunately you can listen to the music but you will never experience the rave scene like we had it, The music, the lights, the atmosphere. When the rave ended, everyone would meet up at the service station on the motorway and we would just carry on the party. Fast cars, loud music, everyone loved up and having a great time, really miss those days!
there are still enough "underground" techno/rave parties with authentic new music, like a lot of them. Not sure about western world but in Ukraine there are a number of those taking place even during current circumstances
@@viktorsoltis Germany, Netherlands and Belgium still have so many underground clubs and festivals, and i mean true raveres exactly as back in days 😎
@@mandibiedermann2246 I love to hear that! it means the culture is still alive around the world and gets some young blood into it!
@@viktorsoltis Yes fortunately ☺
Where are Scooter and Prodigy? Can't believe that you didn't put them on the list 😮
or ATB, Cosmic Gate, Tiesto, Faithles, Master Blaster, Brooklyn Bounce, Dj Quicksilver, Dj Bobo, U96, Mark'Oh, Dune, Members of Mayday, Sash!
I'm Gen Z (unfortunately I must say), but I grew up with those songs since I was a little kid, especially 90s italodance/eurodance. My family had tons of CDs and we listened to them everyday in the car.
Still waiting for a techno track
Early 2000s kid here. I knew every single one 😂. Wish I could go back to these times to be honest.
These songs always made us feel connected with a strong sense of community. Millennials are the last lucky batch that will ever feel connected through music when internet wasn't a thing and songs were only played in the radio or the pubs. And we'd borrow tapes and CDs just to dance! Now with everything so readily available the younger generation will never know what it felt like to be born in the 70s 80s 90s.
Ahaha 90 baby here, and I laughed so hard when they said "These all start the same" when I knew every single song and artist by the FIRST second bc they sound so unique lmao
Samesies! I was 20 in 2000, so these jams are my entire identity, basically. I'm in my 40s and will always be that kid when I hear these songs
I'm a true Gen Xer. And this type(s) of music is part of my lifeblood, as well as 80s power ballads, 80s rock & pop, Europop, etc.
15 years old, from the Netherlands and I know them all and I still think they are so good songs
I remember when Sandstorm was almost overplayed on the radio XD
As one of the oldest of Gen Z....I'm gonna cry. I knew all of them. I feel old when I'm literally part of the demographic in the video 😭
I love how Daniel was having so much fun. Jaxon is pretty good with voices
Gonna go listen to each of these now! So nostalgic.
Los 90 y 2000 son la época más épica de musica, cuándo nos dirigíamos al futuro pero luego llego el regeton y le dimos reverse al futuro.
15:51 his pitbull impression was so good😂
Ikr, honestly idk why more people aren't talking about that 😂
There should be a disclaimer at the end: No techno was heard in making this video
I think it’s encouraging that they immediately knew Sandstorm and late 90s/early ‘00s Daft Punk within like two bars and it made them want to move. Remember that most people we ask from Millennial and GenX can’t name the tracks either. 😊 Before we elder Millennials get super cranky and weep for the future, remember that this was us like 20 years ago. We just didn’t have KZhead. Or really the internet. And when we were their age we had to wait 20 hours to download a track on Napster. They seem like good kids and they respect their “EDM” roots - even if they can’t name them. The one dude also *correctly* identified the classic 4 on the floor beat as quintessential techno. And one of them knew Eiffel 65 was Italian! I didn’t even know that until like 2 years ago. I enjoyed this. Rock on, children!
We don't have the same definition of Techno clearly
as an elder millennial, it was such a vibe to experience these songs in real time
Wow Elder Millenial, nice term hahaha I'm from 85 and I think it suits perfectly. Listening to all these songs made me tear up a bit with nostalgia, how can time pass so quickly? 😂
2:55 Since they didn't mention it, if you play all the music videos for Daft Punk's Discovery album in track order, you see a whole anime movie named Interstella 5555(The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem).
I was about to comment the same. That movie and the album are a wonderful master piece
Am I the only Gen Z who has a broad taste of music from Classical to Trance and EDM?
Me also
I miss those days so much!
genz is a really broad term. There are people in genz that know what VHS is and people who don’t
Knowing what something is and actually using them is something else. I'm a late millennial and they were only really a thing when i was a kid
The 90s were a different world, and the 90s will always be 10 years ago.
For people interested in the anime from Daft Punk , it's called Interstella 5555 The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem. And it's really good as the story is told completely trough visuals and music. 👍
By techno I thought it will be Avicii, Oakenfold, Armin van Buuren, etc
1:04 "it's so crazy how people get down to this and there's NO lyrics [cut]" that's not crazy at all. you don't need lyrics to feel the vibe. it's about letting your body loose, completely succumbing to the rhythm, the groove, just feel it!
Jaxon continues to be a man of culture
Not a single one of these tracks was techno music.
Give me back anabolic frolic!
Zombie Nation the only one Techno music 😅
15:51 That impression though!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a proud Scott, I must say that Jaxon's Scottish accent was pretty good! I asked react to do 90s an early 2000s dance last Friday. I know that's probably not the reason, but I'm just going to think it anyway 😜 Loved this episode! There's so many great dance tunes, the best from 98-2000 imo. Different genres eg, 70s, 80s+ tock, glam rock, new romantic, blues, Motown, funk etc would be fun to watch. Maybe even have a competition people can enter to be included in one of your episodes. Maybe the best episode suggestion? Just like everyone that watches, I have so many ideas for episodes! I'm more than happy to share them, if you reach out! I know that won't likely happen, but a girl can dream! 😜
But madame, as a Scott, do you agree with this change of spell of a such English name ''Jackson'', that becomes ''Jaxon'' !! ? Jack or Jacques become Jax ? !! That is not acceptable for Classic English Lovers, ! Thank You Madame ! And Greetings to the Monster of Loch Ness :) :) :)
Whether I agree or not it's the way he spells it. And thank you! I've not been called madame before! You made my day 😊 When I read your comment it was Scottish legend Billy Connolly's voice that came to mind! Haha Hope you have a lovely day 😊
Jaxon is the pop culture king! You can always count on him to know all the throwbacks AND the references AND enjoy it. Dude even threw in Sprockets at the end 😂
Omg I was a 80”/90 kids .. it was magical .. and safe . You would not understand
They can't tell that was Daft Punk.... my heart T_T
As a european who's also gen z it's so weird for them not to know these songs ahahah
Fr same
As a German, everytime I listen to Eiffel65 I hear: "I'm blue, I believe I will die"
I call this a good attempt to reintroduce classic from yesteryear to a generation where music doesn't have the same spark it used to.
Patiently waiting for Techno to be played...............
3:20 "I've never heard this version". I'm sorry, WHAT?
my reaction 😵🔫
WTF, but everyone knows that classic song, including me who i'm from 2004, I even know even more classic technno and electronic music lol
I was waiting for "9 P.M." by "ATB" that's also one of the legends
Where is Faithless insomnia 😪
i'm 23, so I'm Gen Z and had MASSIVE Techno / Trance parents. I'm actually disappointed others my age don't recognise a lot of these songs right away and there's so many classics missing!
i mean, no need to be disappointed tho. not everyone in your age (well, my age too lmao) have techno or trance parents, right?
Were they high most of your childhood
