Before Spotify I would find new music from MTV. Though back then I didn't know I liked techno more than anything else and I would've never found out from watching MTV

How did you find out? I realized that I really like EDM when I started going to nightclubs.

When flying back home with my family from a trip. Airplanes didnt have individual screens and the movie that was on was terrible (on the shared tvs), so I kept checking every radio station available until I heard (not 100% sure on this) Heaven from DJ Sammy and suddenly I REALLY like music for the first time in my life.

It's so great when you accidentally find something that you really connect with.

Tbh its kind of scary. When I think about how I could've spent my entire life without knowing I like that I also think of all the things I absolutely love to do but havent discovered yet. Our lives are brief and we really need to try to experience as much as possible

So thankful someone took me to a Dirtybird show as a late-blooming electronic fan 🥰

I was a metal head in highschool, so it was weird to me how much I enjoyed the music at the nightclubs and raves. It was especially great when the dance floor was packed, and you could feel the music in your bones, and everyone was bouncing off each other. These days EDM is my go-to music for writing code.

MTV had the show called AMP that would play very late at night. Electronic music videos during the late 90s.
