I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

EMF - The Best Of...
16 June 2001 | 0:00:00 GMT/UTC

EMF The best tracks from EMF, Empsom Mad Funkers/Ecstacy Mother F*ckers - they never made up their mind.

The band came about in 1989, they released their debut - and most memorable - single in 1990. Unbelievable, with its Andrew Dice Clay sample, the track was huge, on both sides of the Atlantic.

However, that was the only track they will be remembered for. This album, fortunately, does contain the aforementioned track (three times actually, two remixes). Would it sell if it didn't?

It also contains their cover of The Monkees' I'm A Believer, which they did with Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer. I Believe is also featured.

The album has got some good stuff on it. There are a couple of new tracks on the album, Incredible and Let's Go, but they are unlikely to bring EMF back up to the level of fame they had in the early nineties.

You also get a bonus disc, featuring remixes. The remixes aren't bad. A good album, featuring some good tracks.


4/5
