    Old vs new

    I started going out at the very beginning of the 90s, to "normal" provincial nightclubs, then london clubs playing rave, hardcore, techno, and some underground raves. Since then I've been playing and attending clubs and festivals where techno, house, electro, jungle etc were played. I will...

Sometimes they only last a few hours, sometimes several weeks but never more than a couple of months, then the internet goes really slow.

    Politician with some principles?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7450728.stm Or am I missing something? Seems to be talking sense in a non-points-scoring way. I expect he will lose any bye-eection because it seems the majority of voters believe that they will be protected from terrorism by giving the govt. the right...

    UR Back on form!

    I just got the Electronic Warfare V2.0 triple pack. I had just about given up on UR, the music getting worse and the hypocrisy of going on about sticking it to the man whilst screwing their fans with alternate B-sides over different formats, CD-only tracks, etc etc. But this is a real return...

    Other tunings

    Class

    OK I suppose this is a UK thing. And it's 50% a joke and 50% serious. What class do you think you are? As a child I can remember my mother sitting me down and telling me we were "lower middle class". We had a detached house in a village and i went to a private school on a scholarship place cos...

    Charts?

    I was reading some comments near the beginning of the Pazz & Jop thread about how the charts are more indie-dominated or rock-dominated these days and I started looking for some statistics. Basically I thought it would be instructive to look at (say) the top 10 singles of each year from 1985 to...
