A coming of age of some sorts, a powerful adaptation to the music that was to set the tone till today… This new generation inspired by the ones before them, armed with better technology, new information and a collaborative spirit instilled by the original masters, drove the creation and maintenance of networks of events, record labels, local promoters, venues, technical solutions, absolutely everything required to spawn an entire industry that would eventually grow into a global phenomenon.
