1999 was a year of musical fireworks, a final, eclectic burst of creativity at the close of the millennium. It was a time when alternative rock reached a new level of maturity, pop music became a global phenomenon, and electronic artists crafted some of their most enduring work. Our 1999 collection is a celebration of this vibrant and transitional year.
