1989 to mid 90's was the time I got into arcade machines, going to Whitley Bay every Sunday.
When I was in uni in 1998, I started buying up all my favourite game boards from that era (to the point I had to stop myself around 2001 after spending £180 on a PCB and feeling guilty
).
I loved the music around 1989/90, but I lost interest as the 90's went on.. I've always preferred the 80's (particularly the first half) , but I think in hindsight there was a lot of great 90's stuff, it was the extremely cheesey dance all over the charts and the radio that did my head in. Well, that and Oasis 😐.
1989/1990 was good years for music, depends what sort your listening too but dance, house, rap, hip house etc I recorded loads of Astra Satellite in 89/90 onto Hifi VHS and transfered to 16 Audio Tapes, Since start of the Internet I've been trying to identify it all, still got one track i cannot find and a couple of mixes
