re: Jam & Spoon, Stella -
There's a tune from 'about that era' that I can't quite remember, but would do so the second I heard it - I loved it as a kid, having heard it on a mix that a friend's brother had made, as he was a DJ/producer around that time*.
Now, I know this is totally vague, so there's no easy way to find it - but I would like to hear it again before I die, so. How would I go about finding it?
I'm thinking I need some sort of resource that catalogues 'rave'/dance tunes from that era, so I could simply and stupidly progressively search for each one in YouTube, etc and spend a few days, weeks, months gradually trying to find it... but I know of no such resource.
Any thoughts?

- Something like this maybe?https://www.di...yuekit

- Possibly, yeah.
Although "1 – 50 of 10,881".
I should've expected that, shouldn't I?
"a few days, weeks, months.. .years".Nairn - That's gonna give you a huge number of results though. If it's a fairly well known track, maybe better off searching best of lists from that era or something.yuekit
- I have no idea how well-known it was - I only ever heard it on this one mix. Perhaps I should just try and contact my old friend and see if he kept any tapes :)Nairn
- ok, if I assume itw as a UK release, I can get it down to 2348 releases. A *little* more manageable :\Nairn
- Not sure if it will help your search but just realized filtering by "Most Wanted" on that site along w/ genre and year is a nice way to find stuff :)yuekit

I cannot cannot CANNOT stop playing this song on repeat for the past week. I'm sure the album is equally good but this song and the vocals are just phenomenal. I always judge an album by whether or not the opening track would make a good opening song at a show. This song is that x 100, IMO.
- I noticed you were listening to this a lot on Spotify :) Good track for sure!Bennn
- that flanger guitar sound is like crack.thumb_screws
- Classic Cure influence, it's cool to hear a fresh take.robotron3k
- agree about the opening song statement.. can totally see thatdee-dubs
