YEK Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) I had a tape titled Junior Jug Band which was a compilation of kids songs that someone copied for me. Used to play the hell out of it and still remember the songs but it's not on YouTube. I found it on discogs and was by these guys but it wasn't any of these specific albums, just a mix of this and that: https://www.discogs.com/artist/8153012-Junior-Jug-Band Edit Just so I have something to share, it had this song on it Oh snap I can buy it https://www.kenwhiteley.com/product-category/junior-jug-band/ Edited October 25, 2021 by yekker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxus Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 My mom would play Bob Marley and Elton John all the time, the first song I remember loving at a really young age was probably this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumbass Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) My parents used to have this CD and I remember listening to it and being a little scared of it lol. Good times. I was like 6 when I listened to it and I only recently found the name of it again after looking for it FOR YEARS. I only remembered the sunflowers on the cover and that's how I ended up finding it again lol. Edited October 25, 2021 by thumbass 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Jan Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I mean loads of pop songs from what was popular back in the day, I used to record tapes from the radio. Kaoma - Lambada, The Sunclub - Fiesta, Daft Punk - Around the World, Moby, Lil Louis - French Kiss, but also Destiny's Child, first Korn things, Ozzy / Black Sabbath, and all the top 40 stuff, bad trance things, Eminem, whatever else. The first 10 TMF Hitzone CD compilations. Specifically to this forum though, one of the first music things I remember, earliest memories. I was two / three when these came out but my brothers who were already teenagers had them on all the time: My mum also had this compilation which I loved: Also Peer Gynt Suite, Vangelis - 1492. There was always gabber around the house too, Speedy J, Prodigy, Chemical Brothers as well. Then my brother showed me Beastie Boys - Hello Nasty, Nirvana - Nevermind, Steve Rachmad - Emerging mix CD and some Aphex classics while I was playing with lego (the Classics comp with On at the end) in 1998. Mr. Oizo - Flat Beat CD single being the first music I ever bought soon after that. Also one of the most precious things to me is I somehow ended up with this tape when I was 10 ish: https://www.discogs.com/release/1569460-Company-Flow-DJ-Spinna-Company-Flow-Presents-Little-Johnny-From-The-Hospital-Breaks-Instrumentals-Ra Still have no memory of how I got it, probably through a mate of a brother? But it was life changing, both Company Flow and DJ Spinna, took it everywhere on my walkman. Even more awesome when I met DJ Spinna in 2019 at Dekmantel and he signed that tape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soloman Tump Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 My parents used to listen to Rod Stewart ON FUCKING REPEAT and I will be glad if I never have to hear any of his songs ever again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAP! My dad had pretty good taste (Tangerine Dream and Ennio Morricone) so my mum was the guilty party with Rod Stewart. If my dad wanted to listen to his music he had to lock himself in the spare room with his stereo because my mum hated it Edited October 25, 2021 by beerwolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister and I would blast this music for days on end so that was my childhood music more or less. As corny as these artists might get, it's still quality music compared to any of today's autotune pop music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely. I have plenty of Stones, Beatles and Springsteen albums in my collection. They’ve gathered some dust in the last 15 years though.

There is this dive bar (more of a dank dark club actually) in my town that books a dj once in a blue moon to play some old tunes like that and it always turns into a party.

Brisbot Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) The Godzilla OST. The American one from the late 90s. I used to dance to it with my cousins when I was... 5 or 6? Haven't heard this in 20 years. It's crazy how I can remember lyrics and instrumentals from when I was 5 Edited October 26, 2021 by Brisbot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scaramouche Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 My folks had a good selection of rock and soul, managed to 'save' a lot of their records, so they're now part of my collection. The Rocky single was the first record I ever owned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colunga Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Earliest memories - Age 4-5?. First interaction w cassettes was blanks and some disney christmas carol tape. but Records - My dad was super strict about me not touching his stereo system, but my grandmother didn't care if I used hers as long as I was gentle. She only had spanish records and sinatra type stuff, except for this Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer LP . I would always come over and want to put it on even though wasn't Christmas. I think part of the novelty was that I was allowed to use the record player. My parents played a lot of music growing up that reminds me of being a kid, but that Rudolph record was the first one that felt like it was my mine.
