The market is designed to give you exactly what you want, it is the true objective mirror of your desires. That's the poptimism credo. That's what Barty always says that's why he is passionate about New Labour,
 
I went to plenty of crustie nights and festivals that played gabba and breakcore etc when I was 16-19. I enjoyed the intensity sprinkled amidst other stuff but I have never played a gabba song myself. If you want to give me your best gabba song of all time I will play it the whole way through for you @thirdform because I value our friendship.

would be nice if those european gabba raves would involve more of this and less of replaying the same scooter anthems for kids on their first two pills, up to the point when you would hear someone trying to initiate a maria i like it loud group chanting session at least five times during each night

yeah thats why you need to go to speedcore parties. gabber proper has been commercialised since 96-97. But in the UK we call all hc techno gabba. Gabber and gabba are technically two different currents.

i was thinking today we should give you a review column. I will send you records to review and you will be forced to review them professionally with a strict word count.
I remember religiously reading German techno zine Frontpage in the 90s. Their reviews was often of the same type. 2 lines max, wildly subjective.

That's correct, there's a distinct UK thing there (perhaps the only real Gabber is Dutch)

But I have to chime and claim that commercial sounding silly gabber do exist, as this guy proves:


Everything ever this guy did was stellar (he did the best 2 Napalm releases as well)

was the argument of the thread that poptimism is a lie because it retains the usual snobberies while making exceptions for a chosen coeterie of strong female protagonists? eg taylor swift, lorde
