Given the profound number of hits released during the decade, it's less a definitive list and more a celebration of some key classics, with 'rave' intended as a catch-all for the artists who came up during the initial late '80s and early '90s movementw.
By the late 1980s, the influence of various DJ-driven music scenes -- from disco and house, to hip-hop and electro, to techno and industrial -- were converging into what would become known as "rave." Developing across the globe at clubs and underground events, rave was in full swing by the early '90s, subject to controversy and heading in myriad sonic directions.
By decade's end, the scene would give rise to sub-genres from drum & bass to IDM to happy hardcore, with the commercially successful tracks often garnering the "electronica" label. In time, the first superstar DJs like Paul Oakenfold and Sasha and Digweed toured the world, while electronic acts played major festivals and an underground phenomenon became part of mainstream culture.

Given the profound number of hits released during the decade, it's less a definitive list and more a celebration of some key classics, with "rave" intended as a catch-all for the artists who came up during the initial late '80s and early '90s movement, and whose work in the '90s captured the essence of the decade.
