'90s music for me was hard-core alternative all the way, but one song that always gets me dancing is Groove Is In The Heart by Deelite. Still love it, on the rare occasion that I am reliving my disco past on the dance floor.

I just picked up that Dee-Lite album (World Clique) with Groove Is In The Heart on it. I got it at a Pawn shop for $1, hehe.
I really like the song, but it took me a few years to disassociate my ex-wife from it as she was the one who bought the album when it came out.
That was back when most people here in the states were calling anything electronic and dance "techno" while those in the U.K. seemed to have a hundred different names for electronic dance music (Jungle, Tribal, House, Drum and Bass, Acid House, House, High NRG, TripHop, etc...).
Then, right around the time The Prodigy's "Firestarter" hit in the states this new term "Electronica" came up and completely replaced the term "Techno."
It's all very confusing.

that mention of 'firestarter' reminded me of this study that i heard about on the radio.

Classical More Dangerous On Roads Than Metal
Head-banging heavy metal music may be OK to listen to while driving -- but stay away from some of the older classical stuff.
Britain's RAC Foundation has named Richard Wagner's fast-paced "Ride of the Valkyries" as the top tune not to listen to while behind the wheel. The group says Canadian research shows loud music can cause accidents by delaying reaction times up to 20 percent.
The RAC found that drivers who were listening to music with a fast beat were twice as likely to go through a red light and have twice as many accidents.
Three modern songs also made the top five most-dangerous list: Wagner, "The Ride of the Valkyries" Prodigy, "Firestarter" Basement Jaxx, "Red Alert" Faithless, "Insomnia" Verdi, "Dies Irae (Requiem)"
The foundation also provided a top-five list of songs that can be played safely while driving, though it cautions the volume should be kept down.
That list includes the Norah Jones hit "Come Away with Me."
The rest of the recommended easy-listening songs: Gary Jules, "Mad World" Lemar, "Another Day" Sugababes, "Too Lost in You" Blue, "Breathe Easy"
for me ..FIRESTARTER will always remind me of playing WIPEOUT 2097 on my playstation...nothing beats that instrumental version while tearing round the track!!and even tho tho were games i loved listening to the dance track from the wipeout games. some of the tunes that i recall from the teens and i loved were SL2-on a ragga tip Adamski-killer Tony Di Bart-real thing Xpansions-move ur body(played that way loud when i used to cum from school with the windows opeb trying to impress the girls..lol) Livin' joy-dreamer Sonz of a loop da loop era-far out
