i'm connell, 24 from belfast. a friend directed me to this site. he is too afraid to register as he finds some of the topics in the 'thoughts' section a bit heavy going. i had to join to express my delight at the 'african'music thread in the music forum and then i thought i'd pop in here and say hey.

hey there dissensus crew! just randomly stumbled on this place after seeing a mention on Ben UFO's Blogariddims mix. Some great thoughtful posts in here. thought I'd say hello and stick around for a while.

Well, I suppose I should try and do one of these. Oh hai, and so forth.
Story of how I got here - recently read a couple of books by Simon Reynolds, which I thought were great and which re-ignited me caring about popular music at a more than casual level. So I started checking his blissblog quite regularly, then took a look at some of the other blogs that were linked or referenced - K-punk, woebot and so forth, then started to see mentions of this place in various places and decided to take a look.
Very impressed so far by the level of intelligence, knowledge and wit on display, it's a little intimidating tbh. I must say, the vibe here feels different from other forums I've posted on in the past. My guess is that either a lot of people here know each other beyond the board, and/or this site existed at another url/in a different form in the past. Is this right?

Welcome to all new posters.

Hi Andy - Dissensus has been at this url for as long as its been going.

But a few of us knew each other beforehand from blogs / comments boxes / other forums / real life, etc.

Plus there have been the odd Dissensus meet ups now and again.

Anyway, don't be intimdated :)

Cool, that's sort of the impression I was getting.
Feeling intimidated is in my nature (hence the screenname I guess), but I usually get over it pretty quickly.

Hi, I'm 16 and have been enjoying a continued infatuation with uk dance music and this seems to be the place with the most insightful discussion.
