    The press release hall of shame thread

    Oh man, I'm not sure if it's the right place, but Factmag's review of Drake's new album is the worst thing I've read in a while. "Who thought rap could be introspective?!?!?"

    Dubstep

    It's not the breakbeat that sucks, it's the fact that if there wasn't a break there it'd just sound like bad trance that's the problem.

    A bunch of tracks floating between garage, dub techno and dubstep. Hope y'all enjoy.

    It really doesn't matter, it's all about what you both decide to be easier.

    Calling Everyone with House Party Know-How

    Yeah, it mostly just gets 'confiscated', and then the cops tell you to be more clever about where you're smoking it next time. I also just realized it's 4/20 tomorrow, I'm in Vancouver and the Art Gallery is going to be really crazy/hazy.

    It's not so much believing in the specific theory that all uk bass music is connected, just I guess the approach to the music as a product.

    It's sad that his personal artistic development is being so disregarded. He's just being eaten up by the "nuum" philosophy as opposed to being seen as someone who writes brilliant melodies. I'll bet you anything he'd get pissed if you told him hes just been coasting lately.

    house and techno are bad

    Your opinions are pretty terrible. I don't understand how a staple of all dance music like a 4x4 kick can anger someone this much. Sure there's lots of dry stuff coming out when it comes to deep house or minimal techno, but there's no reason they can't be recontextualized by good producers to...

    Hey! It sounds like you're describing all music ever!

    Where were you when vinyl died?

    Yeah, I never make my way to Red Cat & Zulu much, mostly because my vinyl spending are usually restricted to dance music so I got downtown (plus Gastown's not out of the way for me). Beat Street only last week took off their 50% sales, I managed to pick up a bunch of nice techno/house stuff on...

    Where were you when vinyl died?

    Really not worth getting worked up over, at all.
