honestly though, late 90s compilation CDs were the absolute shit. Also, I remember saying “Big Shiny Tunes” in my dream but Now 3 was the one I listened to most by far, although if you were truly 9 years old in 2000 you’d know that the most kickass release that year was actually the Digimon Movie soundtrack.
My immediate takeaway here is that with a gun to your head, and a pile of mediocrity to choose from, you still have standards. I appreciate that.
On a related note. Discotek is coming out with Blu-Rays of the Digimon series. Remastered, and a new dub, I believe.
I remember feeling like a total badass when I got my own CD burner and could make my own, better versions of the Big Shiny Tunes compilations. That said, the first one was bangers front-to-back. I made myself a Big Shiny Tunes playlist on Apple Music, because the album proper doesn’t exist there, and I spin that mofo all the time. https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/big-shiny-tunes/pl.4e802643c681422ea6d65c5898862822
