Nice. This soundtrack was my introduction to techno and electronica, back in the day.

ME TOO! (Although mine was actually Wipeout 64) Holy shit this takes me back. Now I wanna listen to some Propellerheads. Sad they only released one album, but every track is a fuckin choon.

Decksandrumsandrockandroll! Good call.

That, Dig Your Own Hole and The Fat of the Land were in my heavy listening rotation back in '97-98.

Yeah, it's all just a little bit of history repeating, ya know?

Excellent video!

I was probably 3 when I was first exposed to the first Wipeout game, and I have been a fan of it and its music ever since. Petrol from Orbital is a big influence on my childhood.

Then later we got a demo with 2097. I distinctly remember it had Body in Motion by Cold Storage. Probably the best track in the entire series.

And now I learn Cold Storage hated this kind of music when he started with Wipeout.

What a trip. I just watched this a couple of hours ago.

Such a great game. Just me in the dark with my NeGcon headphones and Piranha.

God. What a beast Piranha was.
