Return of the 90's

Im sticking by my prediction of a 90's revival comback. 90's dance and hip hop and generally alot of things from the 90's are coming back again. The evidence keeps coming at me from all directions. Trust me, I am wired to notice these things. This is the direction things are heading now. Expect it. Intuitive hunches don't come much bigger than this.

Preview of things to come:
Air Max 90's
bondedorole

Clothes of the 90's

The 1990s in popular culture is typically referred to as the decade of "anti-fashion". In reality, anti-fashion was only one of many trends in fashion in the 1990s; however the fashion of the 1990s was characterized by a rejection of the fashion of the 1980s. The fashion of the 1990s was also characterized by many overlapping, often contradictory trends. The most significant event in 1990s fashion was the rise of grunge fashion in 1992. In the late 1990s there was a move away from grunge. Retro clothing inspired by the 1960s and 1970s was popular for much of the 1990s.

If you are into 90's dance and live in Adelaide, you can tune into Fresh FM - 92.7FM weekdays from 12-1 they have a show called "back in the day" which plays great 90's dance! <-- Thanks Steve



This 90's trend will start as all trends do and the sort of material we will see coming back will be the very early 90's material 90's dance sounds etc. To jump straight back into 94 with its f'd up undercuts and grunge would not be accepted, so it will start with early 90's then as people get more attuned and comfortable it will move to mid 90's.
At first it will be funny, people will sport 90's haircuts to be funny, then they will become accepted and then cool.

90's grooves are also gettin more play in hip hop, princes new album you can hear it. You can hear it in Tiga's rhyming.

Get up, get out, I am personally going to explore this prediction a lot more as I have to whenever I get such a strong hunch as this. Time to watch "Clueless" and other 90's dvds for a little rehashing cool spotting.

The dominant clothing fad at the beginning of the 1990s was fluorescent clothing. The five fluorescent colours were fluorescent blue, fluorescent green, fluorescent orange, fluorescent pink, and fluorescent yellow. Fluorescent clothing was especially popular with teenage and pre-teen girls, although some boys wore fluorescent t-shirts. Fluorescent clothing items included fluorescent t-shirts, fluorescent sweatshirts, fluorescent socks, fluorescent shoelaces, fluorescent hair scrunchies, and fluorescent fanny packs.

Fluro is so coming back soon, i assure you.

90's Songs to get:

SNAP - Rhythm is a Dancer
KWS - Please Don't Go
La Bouche - Mr Vain
KLF - 3AM Eternal
CC Music Factory - Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)
Charles and Eddie - Would I Lie to You



If you are on the lookout for the new/next trend get yourself a Hypercolour teeshirt before they are reissued and they will be reissued, the general population takes longer to catch on but get one now. Ok so this is kinda more late 80's than 90's but I want to stress that it will be early 90's that will reapper first.





Also Plaid flanel shirts. I don't mean to sound racist or generalise a race but Asians are so ahead of the crowd when it comes to fashion. I have noticed Asian youth doing the plaid flanel shirts and plaid and its looks so good. So yep plaid will also make an appearance. Following the grunge look.

Dude!, I am so right in this prediction. You will see.
Yeah Right! As If! Freak Out! Junk. Tight. Word. Deal.

You know that short Stabbing highly distorted guitar sound dshhzzz dshzzz this sound will be highly used. So will cow bells and up front bass lines. Also Deep voiced raps will doesnt have to be deep voiced but raps will definately get more play.

This is what I do daily, monitor the cool, new (rehashed). It may sound lame and shallow or whatever to be so interested in trends and fashion but If one is inclined to be energised via this avenue then it is not shallow as its not based on wanting other peoples approval but stems from ones own interest in this area. Haha. I hate mainstream fashion mostly, well the standard clubbing attire sported by pretty boys and a lot of guys with no brains. They have no idea about fashion and what looks cool.

So yes, lookout the 90's are coming back dude.

The Furlong Haircut - coming soon to a shopping mall near you


That is all for now, when I pinpoint another look or style from the 90's I shall blog it. Cya
