Falsetto Prophet

Forgotten" series which currently spans the 1960s through the 1990s. There's a lot of songs on here I did not recognize by name, but totally knew them when they came on. Sure New Jack Swing, Lite R&B, the Teen Pop Revival, the 1920's Swing revival, and Eurodance also happened, but I intentionally missed out on those.

If you're looking for a definitive time capsule of the decade in music, you're in the wrong place. Decades on, I kind of reduced the 1990s down to three genres I loved: grunge, Brit Pop, and KROQ style mainstream alt rock (Foo Fighters, Bush, RH Chili Peppers, etc. Must have heard them in movies, TV commercials, or suburban discotheques (the only dance clubs I went to in the early 1990s).

And now, all these years later, discovering and rediscovering these lost hits is a pure delight. These sets lean heavily on songs that were hits in the UK, which for an American like me, is a wonderful rabbit hole deep dive into genres and subgenres I had little exposure to in the actual 1990s, save for some similar import compilations that I bought in the discount bin at the Virgin Megastore back in the day.

Well, those are the genres that dominate here. ). If you simply love pop culture in all of its glorious, triumphant, odd, quirky, puzzling, kitschy, sparkly, maddening, oh yeah, and WTF glory, then you're likely to have a lot of fun with this set, and/or any of the "Now!
