i feel like i'll be able to begin sifting through the roots of the present (or perhaps the dawn of time, Jyoti? :-o JK!!)

I can't be the oldest on here...

...can I?

Ah, arse it! I actually enjoy being a grumpy old bloke. There's so much to grumble about:

"Call these pots? In my day the pots were made out of BAKELITE and COAL!"

"Where's the wooden end cheeks? I'm not buying a bloody synth with no wood on it!"

"Oooh, me lumbago!"

And so on and so forth...
:-D

LOL!

what was the world like before LEDS, grampa jyoti?

:-o

Skinny Puppy - "Rabies"

We're probably tied. I was a freshman in high school when "Purple Rain" was released.

Me too. But if Jyoti was buying Gary Numan records in1979, he probably beats us.

Hey - GET OFFA MAAH LAWN! Dang kids... why, I oughtta...

Sorry, I've committed the webinal sin of hijacking your thread onto oldness rather than 'first electronic memories.' For folks guessing, I'm 39.

Now... back on track:

I got some of the Streetsounds Electro comps when they came out too. My god, they sounded sooo insane! I remember getting the CrewCuts comp, the one with Keith LeBlanc's 'Malcolm X' on it. Bloody hell, that track still sounds awesome now.

Ahhh... even the NME was good back then, gave away a 7" with Steinski's 'The Motorcade Sped On' on it. Ace! :-D
