I'm reading 'Energy Flash' by Simon Reynolds published by Picador (1998). In
this book and more specific in chapter eight entitled 'The Future Sound Of
Detroit' I read some 'interesting' viewpoints for discussion. Here's the entire

We have discussed his insights at numerous points over the
years. Basically, any music that doesn't fit his definition of
hardcore (a somewhat malleable concept) is only fit for
excision and derision.
All I can say about his dis on Jeff Mills is, every time I drop
a Mills track in a set, the

Anyone ever buy from them? I saw they had a record simply called 1 listed

Really helpful lads there.

Really helpful lads there. No Sarcasm this time.
