90s Big Beat

[Moronik]

I've got mad love for Big Beat. I was pretty much strictly metal at the time & some friends dragged me to Turnmills for Heavenly Jukebox (or was it Social by then?). It was a complete cliche textbook musical epiphany moment.
As for it making a come back. I think it's already happened. To me, loads of that stuff that Fidgit stuff has a lot in common with Big Beat.

haha exactly what happened to me!! Yep definitely Big Beat is on its way back, so much new music is genre mashing, that you could definitely slip a few old BB classics in. I think there is a definite trend in certain clubs to play many different genres in one night, school disco style, and big beat fits so well into that!

Fidget House/Baltimore/Baile-Funk/Bassline all borrow heavily from the Big Beat aesthetic.
