Favourite, not best. 80's I'd say is by far the best era for music. My favourite era is without a doubt the 1990's. The KLF, Radiohead, BV3000, Blur, Happy Mondays, 808 State and so many more.

I have good memories of early 00's music, but I guess that's because it reminds me of all the times I had then. I can't imagine too many people calling this decade an all time great for music

I would bet my house that almost every contributors favourite period coincides with their youth. Not seen anyone punt the 1920's or the 2000's.

There's always other factors in a question like this.
I already said I have very fond memories of music from the 2000's (not 2010's). I wasn't alive for 90's music, but it's by far my favourite era for both music and cars.

90s, obviously. More specifically 91-96 with hardcore, jungle, bouncy techno and gabber being at their peaks pretty much in progression. Throw in some Belgian techno and finish the decade with the big room trance of Tiesto, Ferry Corsten etc, who started out a few years earlier making gabber.

The dance scene now afaik is pretty much on its arse, certainly in the UK re harder stuff. Holland still going strong as ever. RedBull just did a decent documentary on Bonzai if anyone knows wtf I'm talking about.

And to think some weirdos spent the 90s listening to fking Britpop.
Alot of that 90's trance music still popular round here. Pretty sure the Orbit night club round here was well known for it.
