in 1993 (i was eleven) i saw a lifeforms promo video in tv - and suddenly everything turned from black&white to color!

I can't help but to throw Raymond Scott in there - i guess his stuff from the mid 50's would qualify as the earliest 100% electronic music.

And my fellow countryman(woman) Else Marie Pade did electronic music from ca. 1956!

WOW! That was a masterpiece, too... Can't remember how often I played that.

Underground Sound of Lisbon - So Get Up (1994)

Pretty much changed my life, from an alternative music fan to an electronic music listening, pill munching, robot dancing freak!

Man, that was some good times back in the day eheh.

Pearls Girls by Underworld.

I first heard it in 1996 and I've been inspired to make electronic music since then.

The Advent - Signum

I've heard lots of trance and breaks before this, but nothing really inspires me like this one (to this day I still feel like shaking my ass to it).

I can't remember where I got it, but its like a promo for Ecko clothing or something.

I skipped through the tracks quickly when I got it home, but the opening drumline on this one just grabbed me.

Dylan - "It's alright ma, I'm only bleeding" and Dylan - "Housecarpenter"

Made me realize that I needed to flush all of the phasers, wah-pedals, fuzzboxes down the toilet - and "relearn" how to actually play the guitar.

Those two tunes also reminded me that the greatest instrument ever invented is the human voice. There is a haunting emotion in those two songs that are provided by a very sparse mix - one man's voice and his acoustic guitar...yet the emotion of those songs is greater than/ transcends the elements that make it up.

Anyways, I've only really discovered a lot of Dylan's stuff in the last few years. Wish I would have listened to him sooner - coulda bypassed the whole Van Halen, Scorps, JP, Metallica shit and just got to the real mccoy a decade or two earlier....

Skinny puppy all through my teens, now still listening. Wouldn't it be fitting to have a lesson or two by them now that the development of music is being created by my own hands.

Is there a tune that changed everything for you?

hehe, FSOL again
