Bournemouth has finally hosted a night where the DJs actually know what they are doing. The music was listened to and appreciated by the crowd, quite possibly because the beats per minute matched up, something that seems to be almost non-existent in clubs these days. It’s normally a case of a set playlist triggered by button to boom songs that have been played at least 30 times in the last week alone, but the Old Firestation's Born in the 90s night was different. The songs played were a wide selection of 90s classics, and this was the period in which the majority of current students grew up, so the crowd could sing along and lose themselves in nostagia.

The DJs played a variety of music; from head banging rock songs like Rage Against The Machine, Killing In The Name Of, to sing along pop tunes, like the Pulp’s, Common People and of course timeless hits like Will Smith’s Prince of Bel Air made an appearance!

The only flaw of the evening; why was it so empty? The place was so deserted that there was plenty of space for enthusiastic dancing. I’m not complaining about the fact it wasn’t a cramped sweatbox, but I just don’t understand why no one came. It had music from every genre and songs that everyone knew, but that weren’t overplayed and featured DJs who were really doing their job.

Tickets are now on sale for the next Born in the 90s event. I hope more people attend and show some support for this fantastic night. We need to support real DJs instead of going to clubs where the magic happens at the click of a button.
