Ah, de jaren 90! Een tijdperk waarin we onze Tamagotchi’s in leven probeerden te houden, Flippo’s verzamelden uit zakken chips, en onze eerste stappen in de digitale wereld zetten met Windows 95. Het was een decennium vol iconische momenten en trends die ons nog steeds een warm gevoel van nostalgie geven.
In de muziekwereld was de jaren 90 een gouden tijdperk voor alternatieve rock. Bands zoals Nirvana, met hun rauwe grunge geluid, en Pearl Jam, die de wereld veroverden met hun intense live optredens, bepaalden de toon. Oasis bracht de Britpop naar de voorgrond met hun anthems zoals “Wonderwall” en “Champagne Supernova”. Andere bands zoals Radiohead, Soundgarden, en Alice in Chains droegen bij aan een divers muzikaal landschap dat de jaren 90 zo uniek maakte.
Sinds 2019 heeft KINK ons jaarlijks getrakteerd op de beste alternatieve tracks uit de jaren 90 met hun KINK 90s Top 100. Deze lijst, samengesteld op basis van luisteraarsstemmen werd een vaste waarde voor liefhebbers van 90s muziek. In 2024 werd besloten om de lijst uit te breiden naar een Top 500.
Dus, of je nu een oude favoriet herontdekt of een nieuwe klassieker leert kennen, de KINK 90's Top 500 biedt een uitgebreide reis door een van de meest invloedrijke decennia in de muziekgeschiedenis. Zet je radio aan, haal je Tamagotchi tevoorschijn, en geniet van de ultieme 90s ervaring!
Dit jaar, in 2024, heeft het themakanaal KINK 90's voor het eerst een eigen KINK 90's Top 500 uitgezonden. Vijf dagen lang konden luisteraars genieten van de 500 beste alternatieve rocktracks uit de jaren 90. Deze werden geselecteerd uit de meest recente KINK 1500. Van maandag 10 juni tot en met vrijdag 14 juni klonken de grootste hits en verborgen parels uit de jaren 90 door de speakers, een waar feest van nostalgie en muzikale kwaliteit.
