I miss the music scene I grew up with (the mid to late '90s, basically). There are records from that period that I can't even look at with any kind of critical assessment because they're so much a part of my life and formative experience the music is inseparable from the memory. Actually I think it's that I miss more than the music itself--being so fully steeped and soaked in it.

It's like falling in love. Your first love always sticks with you as a unique and kind of untouchable experience, no matter how much and truly you can love someone else later in life.
That analogy at the end is so untrue for me. At least, with the ''being In love'' feeling, which is different from just loving. I've never actually loved a girl yet. I do love my family though.

I do know what you mean, nostalgia plays a huge role for some albums I like, but I can still think rationally about them. I know some of them suck balls and that some of them are good for what they do.

I love plenty of modern music, but I don't like any electronic music at all :c.
