1994... I moved cities, walked around in the rain with Digable Planets' "Blow Out Comb" on the headphones lots, Autechre was reality, west coast crust punks started doing deep house parties, Britpop was a thing, I spent even more time in record stores, Swedish, Gothenburg melodic death metal via In Flames, At The Gates, etc, was being played on local hardcore punk radio shows, contrasting pop punk now playlisted on commercial radio, dj Premier was it, I heard ragga jungle for the first time..
diversion: can we talk fashion here?
You can blame skateboarders for birthing phat pants into the mainstream world in 1992 (I lived in a city where we made our own phat pants in the local skate scene...guilty ), and by 1994, street fashion was entirely confused as you'd see phat pants at raves (of course), metal and punk shows, hip hop gigs. 1994 was confusing in the pantleg width department. Some are still confused to this day.
I saw a ufo in 1994 too... true story.
