Everybody knows that Mondays are fucked… so I’m giving you music that is fucked…
Love it or hate it, it is still fucked…

Nothing screams F**KED MONDAY more than this next track. It was released in 1996 when I was 9 years old. I didn’t know what it was about then…and I still don’t know now. But not knowing what something is about doesn’t mean that you don’t remember it, and I do remember this song.
Born out of the loco producer minds of a husband and wife team out of England, the pair released many songs under no less than 11 pseudonyms to varying degrees of success. Believe it or not, this was their most successful reaching number 1 in 12 different countries…yes, 12 different countries including Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland…the mind boggles just thinking about it, and it says a lot about the youth of the ‘90’s, and their collective state of mind, especially in Europe.
Unless you are familiar with dance music, this is the kind of song that you hear that turns you off anything with a dance beat or synth sound. For many years to come I would wake up in cold sweats screaming at the thought of dance music, with this song burnt into my psyche (you gotta remember I was nine and this track was kinda scary…who am I kidding, it still is).
Anywho, the pair that released the track were TECHNOHEAD, the genre was HAPPY HARDCORE, and the song was, of course, I WANNA BE A HIPPY clocking in at just under 180bpm…Welcome to F**KED MONDAY
