Classic EDM Music Videos
Purpose: This thread serves as a forum for documenting, informing, sharing and reminiscing about classic EDM music videos.
What: Classic EDM music videos (pre-2000 EDM - not to include hip-hop, R&B nor rap or it's related forms)
Why:
EDM music videos did not receive significant airplay in the 1990s. Even with specialty channels like BPMtv - many of the older videos still do not get played.
For people who listened to EDM in the 1990s - rediscovering the music that influenced your tastes, preferences and for many your (current/past) social group.
For those who did NOT listen to EDM in the 1990s - share some of the classic EDM that your peers enjoyed, that you may also enjoy and (possibly/likely) influenced the artists popular today.
How: Search the now immense catalog of video content via Google Video, YouTube and similar video repositories (or even upload your own) and post the name of the artist, the name of the song and the URL to view the video in this thread. Commentary is nice but not required.

I'll start off to demonstrate what exactly is to be accomplished within this thread:
Many of the videos from the early/mid-90s are "euro" videos because the genre was commercially popular enough (mostly in Europe/Canada) to justify the expense of having a music video made. Examples:
BUT not everything was Euro (albeit some was pretty close). Some of the more popular or commercial sounding non-Euro EDM (trance, house, acid, techno, etc.) found their way into videos - usually via a wealthy label or a group whom had industry connections (or a buddy with an Amiga capable of adding effects to camcorder recordings). Videos to note:
