I was thinking about buying the entire Theo's Ugly Edits series.  
Anyone here has a hint or a good source to buy from?

Bangface was doing it a couple of years ago but seems to be more about
the breakcore these days - they do keep up the spirit of rave though,
with smileys and inflatable toys everywhere - I gather young Americans
have gone for that kind of rave aesthetic in a big way or am I wrong?

I think a couple years ago the Rephlex crew were throwing parties where
they played all sorts of early rave music.  Trying to bring back the
feeling of that first E, or something.  Forget it guys, those receptors
are blown.

I do an abbreviated version of that when I drop Bomb Scare and Mr Kirk's
nightmare, but it just seems to piss people off.

What I'm waiting for is for people to start dressing and styling their
hairs like they do in those super early UK rave videos I've seen.  As
someone who got into it a little later, seeing bad 80's hair and
ridiculous bulky jumpers combined with dance music is hilarious...

What is it with kids and dub? Someone on this list was talking about
how his one-year-old really liked to fall asleep listening to
Scientist or something. (or was it not this list?)

The Drum & Bass scene has already revisited the old school rave techno
sounds back in the early 2000's.
I guess depending in the circles you hang out it also helps determine
which retro styles are to be in vogue.

I kept feeling the early 90's Manchester biz would make a come back,
but I haven't seen its arrival yet.
Perhaps it's next right after the Disco/Punk/80s/Electro Rock outfits
have had their moment.

well, yeah, of course it's about 20 years - if you think that most of the
people were maybe between the ages of 2 and 10 - they are now 22 and 30

too young at the time but of age now

yep, that's partly what my own ungrounded theory includes
I just add the thing about people tending to revive the music they weren't
quite old enough to fully participate in
like 80s new wave synth/post-punk revival done by people who were just wee
tots in the early 80s - they heard the music, maybe second hand, via an
older friend or sibling
but they weren't old enough to be buying the records, going to the shows,
reading the rags, etc.

(313) the circle of trends

2008-07-02 Thread kent williams
This is an interesting topic. Interesting enought that I feel
compelled to pull some completely ungrounded theorizing out of my
tuchis.

I think what drives these cycles at it's root is that people are like
ducks -- they form their deepest emotional attachment to the music
they hear when they're young.  This applies to people who actually
make music every bit as much as it does to punters.  So when it comes
their turn to provide the soundtrack for the zeitgeist, they turn
naturally to the music of their youth.  They update it with influences
of everything that has happened in the meantime, changes in music
technology, etc. And this trolling through the wonder years is also
reactionary -- they use elements of what they liked about music past
to counter what they dislike about music present.

So if House music is the current vogue, it's soul and gospel roots are
an antidote to the blandness of minimal techno, combined with
nostalgia for the raw sounds of early House music.  This will be
replaced in due time with something else again.  And not so much
amongst us out in flyover country, but in New York, London, Berlin,
Paris, Barcelona, there's the element of fashion involved.  Once
something becomes too popular amongs the hoi  polloi, the in crowd
needs to find something different.

Here's hoping that there's no big resurgence of Happy Hardcore, which
by the generational clock, is due for a revival
