Well, if you had to make the thread…
Sasha Global Underground San Francisco album.

I used to just buy random electronic music cd’s as a teen to find new music and the way the description read on the back and it was a 2 disc album at the same price as a single disc I went for it.

I wasn’t really impressed, at first. Then as the album progressed, and I couldn’t really discern when one track fully switched into another and then I was really surprised at how much I was getting into it the more I listened. By the end of the 2nd disc I was like, woah!

I was so hooked I eventually talked my parents into buying me a pair of turntables for my birthday one year. Sure many of you may know him, but for a teen in Ohio, I was into stuff that not to many knew of in the late 90’s in my school.
