DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince- Summertime
This may be a contender if you’re wanting that token rap song
I loved this one
It can replace Dave Matthew’s
But in all seriousness Beastie Boys should be included
So Whatcha Want?

Pretty good list. But with no hip hop, no pop and no country (we all forget how big Garth Brooks et al were during that decade), I wouldn't call it 90's per se, but more 90's Alt rock. But for those of us that lived thru them, most of it was Alt rock..
Keep the Bosstones, but switch I suppose for Impression that I get.
Same for Sheryl Crow, switch All I wanna do for If it makes you happy.
Nirvana should be the second song.
Soundgarden should kick it off and the track should be Spoonman. (Was fortunate so see them more than once...)
For AIC, it's a really hard pick between Man in the Box, Rooster or Would? I might consider Would as opposed to Man in the box because it's more brooding and there are a couple other songs on the list that already have the same feel as Man in the box. But it's a close call. As I said you can't go wrong with any of the 3 mentioned.
I really have no strong argument against STP - Plush. However, with it's long building intro, Vaseline would be a great song to kick off the whole mixtape if you don't take my Soundgarden suggestion earlier.
No rain is a banger and underrated by most.
I'd aslo switch RHCP. Give it Away would be a great track to start side two (I think that's where it was on the original album release (first song of side 2))...
One that seems missing is anything by RATM and Primus' - Wynona's Big Brown Beaver, but I don't know where you'd squeeze them in. Maybe on Volume II....

And it’s so much better visually when the band name is first.

This should definitely be on there, but I'm not replacing Ants Marching with it. Find another one to replace it with.

I'm looking for the representative sound of the 90's. That's why Dr. Dre [isn't] making my list
You're fricking high.
Deep Cover or Nothing But A G Thang should be candidates, and perhaps Keep Their Heads Ringin'.

I already answered this.

It's because let me ride is a rip of Parliament's Mothership connection. It's not a 90's song, it's a 70's with new lyrics...
Parliament's Mothership connection
But as close as that one is to Mothership, it's nothing compared to G-Thang. He just didn't take a bite of I Want'a Do Something Freaky To You, he ate the whole dang sandwich..(Which makes the scene in Straight outta Compton where he's trying to work the melody out on the organ even funnier...)

Rap samples music from other times and genres. You can't treat it the same as genres where bands play their own music.

Why not? Part of the brilliance of hip-hop is how they mix music from these difference eras and genres into something new. Isn't that part of the appeal of hip-hop?
In this day and age can't the turntable and sampler be consider an instrument? They're sold a guitars center (and many other places) as "instruments". Cutting and scratching are unique sounds produced by records and turntable (or a controller) are one of the corner stones of hip-hop music. I mean, fundamentally, playing a tone or a phrase off a record/sampler and combining it with other sounds is no different than playing a tone off a drum, guitar, organ or any other instrument that you want to play. The only difference is what tool you're using to vibrate the air molecules so that we can hear them.

I adore early 90's gangsta rap, but I'm not going to include it on this list because it is its own thing and representative of its own sound, not "the 90's" sound. Same as I won't include Ace of Base or Nine Inch Nails.
Regarding sampling equipment, of course it takes skill and talent to use it all, but it's still not a musical instrument. Guitar Center sells drum stools and guitar straps, those are not musical instruments. They are tools used in creating music but they are not instruments. I say this as someone who bought a sampler from Guitar Center (Rhythm City) in the 90's, and also played in a band with a drum machine instead of a drummer. A Drum machine is an instrument if you are Futureman, but if you only have to play the drum beat once on the machine, and the machine is then programmed to play it out for the rest of the bars, that's not an instrument. It's a programmable recording and replay device. Technology has killed music. Get off my lawn.

Fair enough assessment, but by that logic, a 70-80 synthesizer is not an instrument either.
