It really has a ton of early nineties trance styles, it has cafe del mar feelings to it, which is probably the most remixed dance track in the 90s, and that boomtang remix feels like it occurred at a pivotal moment in the trance rave scene. It sounds like a solid connection between generations of electronic music, so I'm glad to have found it.

Parece ser que Kingsley estaba escuchando el sonido de una máquina de hacer palomitas cuando se le ocurrió componer una melodía que imitase ese ruido. Así nació el primer éxito electrónico de la historia.

Not only a chronological evolution, but also a quality de-evolution :-D

It’s interesting to hear how the trends in EDM shifted through the years just using the same melody. I especially like the transition from 80s to 90s.

Если бы этой мелодии не было - её следовало бы написать непременно!!!

According to the composer, the name was suggested as a mix of "pop" (meaning music) and "corn" (meaning kitsch). The idea to make it sound like popcorn the food came later.

I swear at the first contact with the aliens event we are gonna be playing this or the Beverly Hills cop’s theme...

[@ciderfan823]

Why not both? Also, I'm now picturing a scene where Axel Foley's movements are based off this song. Lol

[@TWBarb]

I am thrilled by how entertaining this is!!!!

There was a version in the UK around 1990 subtitled "a musical orgasm" - I only know because I bought it.

Hot butter: being the most famous version 1:39 Me, a late 90s kid: 13:33
