Thank you!! I was unsulted when he said this to me!!

Is oldskool any music from that time period or is it a genre? I think of oldskool as Chavvie qfx sounding tracks

old school for me is anything from the mid-90:s and back.

I've always thought old skool was anything from early piano house, through to full on Altern8 style hardcore.

But not Underworld !!!

I wouldn't say its old skool either, but it could be one day?

 

[dfunky]

I'd say its an anthem but not old skool
old skool stuff is like b4 1992/3
jj tribute, k klass, love decade e.t.c that kind of piano stuff maybe a few older acid tracks.
How did you manage to get into the argument about it anyway

old skool

Yes dfunky you are correct! Old skool is not a genre, it is a term used to describe mid 90's or before music that had that "feel good" quality, yeah w/ the piano riffs and such.....they don't make music like that anymore imo. That's not a bad thing! Just different!

 

[funky]

thank you!

Not in the true sense of the word. Old skool refers to all the old late 80s/early 90s acid house style tracks.

Whilst Born Slippy is a classic, it's not of this genre.

 

[GazDaBomb]

its not old school, but id put it down to be a classic

 

[macdonsj]

i wouldn't class it as old skool

 

[Digger]

If Born Slippy's oldskool then I'm old. And do I not like that.
