Brierly Hill 90210 presents... 2003

Brierly Hill 90210

I switched from Windows to Mac in 2003 and bought by first iPod. It was still the early days of online music and Apple had “New Music Tuesday” when they would give away a newly released track and would list all of the albums that had been made available in iTunes that week. It was a small enough number that I could scan through each Tuesday to see what was new. Looking back, it was probably the start of my rediscovered love of new music. There's a large list of music from 2003 in my library! In fact, there's too much for me to include in one episode, so creates a dilemma. Do I play the music I listened to at the time or music released in 2003 that I only discovered later? Do I include the music that I liked back then but not so much any more? That's a question that's come up for previous episodes but with the large selection available for 2003, there were some tough choices to make but I tried to mix up some things I've only recently discovered and kept in some originals I'm less keen on but that feel more representative of the time. I hope you like it. Welcome to 2003.
