This is the thing about a lot of exciting moments in dance music, isn't it. The thing that makes them exciting is the tension between basically incompatible elements, which also makes them inherently unstable. You think you're being clever by rejecting the bad one and then when you finally get just the pure good stuff you realize it's kind of uninspiring on its own.

As a wise music critic once said, maybe if the bits that suck didn't suck so much, the bits that rock wouldn't rock so much.

on the surface, yes, but not sure if I fully agree. There is nothing all that inspiring in a lot of 80s rock, accomplished music it may be, but not very inspiring. Yet it is lionised by the critics as guarantor of good taste.

I tend to notice a double standard.
