this would be an impossible for task for one person..313 relies upon the good 
will of the many..unfortunately it is filtered through people who have their 
own subjective tastes/whims whatever and definitely some people get far far too 
much play than they really deserve (imo) but in every art genre some people 
receive adoration more for their personality or because they have marketed 
themselves better and thus become more of an institution in popular culture..if 
you see a record on a list and want to know if someone's heard it or knows 
about it post a question...if you want to see an artist get more play _plug_ 
them here...you probably haven't noticed but many people here do this..posting 
positive comments to try to make others more aware, more interested and thereby 
more interested that next time around in purchasing that record or going to see 
that dj they heard about...

also if you see certain people that seem to have the same sort of taste as you 
and you respect what they say start making sure you read their posts and maybe 
stop reading others..i can tell you i started doing that like 4 years ago...i 
_can_ say that when 313 first started it was high high HIGH in 
content..virtually all reviews..but that was when just a handful of supergeeks 
were on the list..and seriously i think you should use the work clique or 
something instead of "elite" 'cause if you had met many of the people here 
you'd pretty much laugh at applying the word "elite" to them (i am so including 
myself here in case anyone's ego is starting to inflate and get defensive 
;)..awesome geeks imo but nonetheless :)...self-select and create your own 
tailored 313 list by whom you include

overall though reviews have gone way way down but it seems as though the older 
all of us get the less inclined people are to take the time to write really 
thorough reviews

my opinion
