It was also on the Hackers soundtrack. That movie is what got me into electronic music. Awesome soundtrack even if the movie was a bit out there.

I grew up on that album as well as MTV's Amp, Fatboy Slim, Paul Oakenfold and the like. If you like that type of music, check me out: www.thassodar.com

I just put out a chill album over the weekend, my normal stuff slides between Prodigy and Aphex Twin at times.

First heard this in Hackers as a kid. I discovered Orbital much later. The OST also had The Prodigy, Underworld, Carl Cox and Massive Attack.

This is probably mostly nostalgia, but I think it's an all right movie. Not great, but moderately entertaining.

It's also a great window into 90s youth culture and mainstream perceptions of internet/technology before it really got big.
