It's the #triplej #hottest100 in #Australia this weekend which is an amazing celebration of music (the world's biggest musical democracy!) but in recent years I've personally been captivated by the retro 100 countdown, where they replay the list from 20 years ago on their sister radio station #DoubleJ the day after the main event.

I won't spoil the #2002 winners (you can easily look it up online) but it was definitely the year of Dave Grohl, getting 10 entries between #QueensOfTheStoneAge, #FooFighters and #Nirvana.

Aside from that, it was a fairly eclectic year of music. The top 10 was mostly rock but there was some hip-hop and rap in there, and a fair bit of #house, #dance and #techno further down the list.

A lot of people remember those landmark years where Powderfinger, Gotye or Kings of Leon won but this year looks like it's got a heap of underrated tracks instead. It all starts Sunday 10am local time (in Australia) on Double J and I can't wait!
