Was big into S-Club 7 at the time.

Dimitri From Paris - A Night At The Playboy Mansion
DJ Heather - Tangerine
Soulstice - Illusion
and something different
Andrea Bocelli - Romanza

It's sad because I'm leaving and I have only listen to DJ Heather cd so far. When I come back, I will play the rest on my sony cd walkman.

If we're talking about the music I had in 2001, probably something like Audio Adrenaline or The Beatles' Lonely Hearts Club Band. Christian music and a small selection of classic rock was all my parents let me listen to at the time.

If we're basing it on current tastes though, probably something like My Bloody Valentine's Loveless or Orange Goblin's Time Travelling Blues.

Probably 10,000 Hz Legend (Air, the French band) but I never listened to it as much as Moon Safari.

Also Mutations and/or Midnite Vultures (Beck).

And I had an actual Sony Discman in those days too. I remember that it worked better than the player in a friend's car that skipped all the time.

A burned CD with a carefully selected mix of anime songs, alt rock, and folk punk. Not carefully selected because they went well together, but because IIRC the cheap CDs then didn’t hold a ton of songs.

I'm not, gave my discman to my younger brother brother because it skipped like a mother if you walked with it in your pocket, and I mainly listened to books on tape on my actual walkman well up until mp3 players were viable

I only owned CD-RW lots of Eminem, crazy train, trapt, SOAD, Metallica, linkin park, pantera, no doubt. Shit my mom probably still has all my music on our old W98 e-machine

INCredible Sounds of Drum and Bass Mixed by Goldie or Colours by Adam F, or some mp3 disk with all my Napster downloads because mine had mp3 support.

I know for a fact it was Spiritualized - Let It Come Down

[–] Pulptastic@midwest.social 1 points 7 months ago

I got a discman in 95ish and listened to STP - Core, Blind Melon, and RHCP - What Hits mostly. It took two AA batteries and only lasted for 4-5 hours.

In 2001 I had a Phillips portable CD player that used 1 AA and lasted for 12+ hours. I was listening to Lateralus, Guster - Lost and Gone Forever, Mer de Noms, and Pump Up the Valuum.
