You'll notice a frightening lack of hip-hop, dance-oriented pop and R'n'B. Feel free to chime in with those genres.

A friend of mine is feeling unduly nostalgic for the music of the very early-to-mid 90's, and is compiling tracks for a massive compilation.

Does that mean that if I mention something that he's not nostalgic for, it gets thrown out? Or could be be nostalgic for something he's never heard much before. The guessing is all too much.

Souls of Mischief - "Live and Let Live"
Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - "Afro"
Meat Beat Manifesto - "Circles"
808 State - "Lift"
