Youtube suddenly recommended me some music I listen to some 14 years ago. Unlocked some memories that didn’t need unlocking

      I’m curious what old songs you might be thinking of? I was a wannabe raver in middle school and an actual one at the end of highschool lol. I may know what’s up

          Lol aw man I’m definitely getting old; I remember when Skrillex came out and kinda ruined the genre tbh, it was so totally different when it first emerged, it actually sounded like dub. So I’m not familiar with any of those guys, they were after my time.

          I think it probably depends on the listener but yeah, if I try to listen to most mid 80s hip hop, it’s so rudimentary that it’s really hard for me to a tuslly get into. Like Run DMC, or NWA. I can get into NWA but the novelty runs out quickly so I can only listen to them very rarely. But there are a lot of newer bands that I hear and say “I’ve already heard x y and z do this better” so it’s hard to get excited about new stuff too. If you are a really avid music listener I think it has to take something exceptional coming out to really get impressed by
