not necessarily, there is good new stuff coming out EVERY DAY that doesn't get mentioned on the 313 list. 313 is a mere window to a sub-set of information, not some divine fountain or ultimate source of it. Maybe you have unrealistic expectations... no one source will ever give you an objective picture of what it reports on anyway. > But perhaps this is too much of a task > to expect from one person although there are people > here who seem to be obsessed with 313 music so they would > be ideal candidates. Why not you? Can you be a candidate? I think you assume that one person runs the content of 313. It's collective. The list content is only as weak or as strong as you and all other collective contributors make it. So vote with your keyboard and if you want to read more reviews of new 313 labels, start writing them yourself... listen to samples online, share your thoughts... instead of waiting for "someone" to provide you with what you subscribed for. I hope you can see my point here, if not I'm sorry I just can't help yaw... I also second whoever said that "if a record is just average or bad I don't write a review of it". This is a personal choice but I happen to agree. Why waste your time or keystrokes giving something a "C" when there are so many "A" releases and labels worth getting excited and writing about? cheers, Matt MacQueen
