1990-2000: The Decade That Was House Music
A memoir of records, rooms and 90s house culture

1990-2000: The Decade That Was House Music is a memoir-led journey through the records, rooms and rituals that shaped one person's relationship with 90s house culture.House music did not begin in the 1990s, but for a generation of British teenagers, bedroom DJs, record buyers and clubbers, the decade was when it became impossible to ignore. Through taped Radio 1 broadcasts, Mixmag, DJ Mag, Muzik, Soundlab belt-drive decks, 1210s, Saturday record-shopping trips, local residencies, superclubs, Ibiza memories, white labels, compilation culture and the rise of the superstar DJ, James Bleakman traces the decade that turned a sound into an identity.This is not a definitive history. It is a personal account of how house music moved from underground culture to global club language while still holding onto the feeling that mattered most: discovery, belonging, identity and the belief that the right record, in the right room, could change everything.Whether you remember the era first hand, wish you'd experienced it, or still believe records can carry whole chapters of a life, this audiobook is a love letter to the decade that gave house music its defining voice.Listeners who want to explore even further can also discover the premium illustrated Collector's Edition Hardback, featuring photographs, flyers, record sleeves and memorabilia that bring the story to life visually. The Collector's Edition takes the story beyond the millennium and explores how house music moved from superclub scale back towards a new underground.For details visit www.letsgodisco.net
