That song was on the album by Radio Free Vestibule. They became known as The Vestibules. With that name they produced a follow up album that sucked. No, don't know the Worms.
Well, you should try changing the thread title. Maybe the name Igor conjures up nightmarish flashbacks from people's childhoodsi wonder if anyone's found anything the like from this thread ..

Disco Volante is the only one i recognize , i got into electronic music around 95-96 myself, mainly psy/goa , stuff likelets move on
Again in the early 90s i heavily got into techno. I have to explain that i .. well. Let me start again. Italy was one of the cradles of early electronic dance music. I'm not talking about Kraftwerk, but proper club-only, dance-oriented electronic music. Amsterdam, Detroit and Italy. What a weird combo.
Having had the luck to go to a very posh high school for rich kids, we had means beyond what most kids had in the 80s, and we were among the first of our generation to be exposed to this music; while i was not into it in any meaningful way (hard rock for me back then), my classmates were, and when we met again in the US for college, i swiftly picked it up.
And, we referred to everything as techno. "Techno" is the umbrella term that includes ALL of the italo dance scene, and anything that isn't stylistically italo dance, but follows the same musical rules. While then they would all have their own subgenre - and believe me, we looooved trying to classify everything - the word techno can sum them all up.
I am aware that "techno" was later meant to represent a particular style, but to us it's just a shortening of "technology", i.e. done with a roland 303 at its core.
Now .. i should be albe to easily state that heavy metal and techno are at the very polar opposites of each other and if you listen to one, you cannot listen to the other. Well, i do.
Techno meant to me as much as Breaking All The Rules or Where Is My Mind did. Like punk and metal, i find that techno - being made by people who had mostly zero education in music, was *wrong* and broke rules, thus contributing to that randomness-based creativity i was after. Many of the music that i loved is atrocious, and i loved it *because* it was atrocious - new, unpredictable, surprising.
Before i go and list a whole ton of songs, i need to explain two more things.
1. in the world of techno, you rarely if ever make an album; you cut a single, sometimes even ONE side of a record, with the other being blank. Thta's how music is made and how it's sold. Also, "remixing" - taking some elements (sounds, programming) of a song and re-issuing it as a completely different version - is acceptable, while in rock you try to create the "artistically perfect" version of a song.
2. i also love a ton of the cheesy commercial songs you already know about, so, C&C Music Factory, Rhythm Is A Dancer, What Is Love, etc. Consider those ought to be on this list, but they won't be. You don't need me to help you discover those.
One final thing.
Repetitive music will have an effect on you. This was already discovered in medieval times, it's where "ostinato" comes from. When your brain has detected a pattern, it will then stop trying to listen to it (because it can assume it will repeat), and focus on other things instead, even imagining new patterns that could match. Loud, repetitive music in a situation where you are deprived of other stimuli, will absolutely have a psychotropic effect on you - you won't be seeing dancing elephants, but you will have an altered state of mind, if slight. Add the drugs and the drinks and being surrounded by weird people and hot women, and the club becomes an experience which is almost completely removed from the music itself. Note that a lot of these songs are *long*. This is meant to be, and the reason why in a club songs are mixed to be seamless. They need to get your brain out of the normal state of mind - you know, where you look for food & predators - which is reached by fucking breaking it.
Ok, here are some examples of songs that i have found memorable.
I wish! At least then girls would want me so I could protect themAs for kavinski, I only think is a thickly built Russian with no photogenic features.![]()
One time, I was seriously going to get into REAL TROUBLE in the office, coz this girl gets really close to me, telling me something and her huge (compared to her body size) covered boobs are staring me right in my face and I'm looking at them with my eyes popping out and I had to make a REALLY serious effort to not blurt out, "How come your boobs are so big????" and she is totally oblivious to where my eyes are stuck at and just yapping and yapping.yapping like crazy

YSK women generally do notice when you're staring at their boobs. Just because she didn't say something about it doesn't mean she didn't notice.One time, I was seriously going to get into REAL TROUBLE in the office, coz this girl gets really close to me, telling me something and her huge (compared to her body size) covered boobs are staring me right in my face and I'm looking at them with my eyes popping out and I had to make a REALLY serious effort to not blurt out, "How come your boobs are so big????" and she is totally oblivious to where my eyes are stuck at and just yapping and yapping.
I know when a woman notices me staring at her boobs. I have a pretty piercing gaze. Then they attempt to cover up their cleavage (yeah for some reason I end up interacting with women like that). The only women who don't mind me looking are the ones who have their boobs literally falling out of their dress. That's not as enticing since I know what 50% of their boobs look like. Kinda spoils the fun.YSK women generally do notice when you're staring at their boobs. Just because she didn't say something about it doesn't mean she didn't notice.
