dancing is funny. I am a complete and total spaz: i try to poplock, but i have poorly articulated shoulder muscles and no hip control, so its like my body stutters in an embarrasing, not-smooth manner. i try to groove but i lose my balance and wobble a lot. i try to goth-shimmy but i have short...

For a neat little thing being planned for the upcoming 4th of July weekend, we're looking for a venue capable of hosting 2 decent-sounded rooms, a bar, and lots of dirty smelly noisey people. Anyone with a possible lead PM me and we can continue the discussion. p.s. - the music will not suck...

Duel to the Death is pretty wicked stuff (in the wuxia style, which is like old school chinese opera and dungeons and dragons mixed together and is nigh the best thing ever); greatest swordsman of china and greatest swordsman of japan are brought together to fight a centennial ritual fight...

berzerker is triply awesome because a) los angles hardcore loves him b) aussie hardcore loves him and c) los angeles skaters who don't know hardcore but seem to like it anyways loves him. that is in a funny way the total victory for me- when someone who has totally no cool agenda at all loves...

this is sexy. i don't know what i'm listening to, i can't find a 'now playing' thing on the resonance site. i hope it's this good all night.

well it was one of the humors, right? it means 'black bile', and I know Chaucer mentioned it. but maybe there's a specific reference i'm not catching.

oh neat, xanopticon's pretty decent. http://www.freetekno.fr/ is back up! OMG THE UNDERGROUND IS BACK these guys are damn inspirational. parties in morgues, cellars, hospitals... anyone up for a trip to france? it's less commitment for you brits but i'll do it if we can all cram into a 'bus'...

last i heard about the teknival stuff was they threw a couple of big profile parties that really didn't end up as planned and it soured a lot of peeps. that could all be nonsense for what i know, but it seems likely as anything - esp. with reports i'd heard about their parties getting busted, or...

Mark N hated playing in Los Angeles. He was at the 3rd rave I ever went to, one of them big sellout massives, I think it was Oracle 2, and people -his fans, ostensibly- threw beer bottles at him. ...first time i ever heard music live that scared, thrilled and made me want to do anything other...

that is why every where sucks. standers should be shocked with stun batons until they get the point or have a seizure. for instance, i am personally ashamed for those people who did not get they whatever on to r.i.p. that is blatant ball-dropping of the fourth order. likewise, from what i...

yeah deathchant included - hellfish and producer were on the first cd of electronic music i ever bought, ron d core's medical mayhem. they used to do a lot of stuff out here in l.a., i'd see them flyered up for the big events back in the day when they had hardcore rooms.

I'm a big big fan of what i think of as hardcore of the techno/rave strain but it's different from a lot of non-americans think of as hardcore (esp. Brits)...dumb speedcore and cheesy deathcore (stuff like tron or delta nine or australia's mark n or los angeles' own ron d core). stuff really...

well, take this with a grain of salt*, but a lot of the producers who were doing interesting things (or about to) have turned from what was really exciting and full of potential (wizzy noise, koxbox, midi miliz, x-dream, all those weird frenchies...even infected mushroom's bp empire was kind of...

oh man, remarc + mushrooms sounds interesting. i wonder if it would help me through the (physical and psychological) wobblies i always get. i think there are two classes of tranq users...the nice, fun, kind of loud but usually sweet, red wine + benzo people (often found listening to mum or...

lots to think about: i guess the phenom that i'm seeing here isn't really limited to here, which is in some sense good news. I have no sense of perspective when it comes to LA :) that meth is spreading again doesn't totally catch me by surprise, but egah that drug has wickedness in it and if...

[I almost called this Drugs In Music,] I know its been a thing, especially in some threads of music journalism/appreciation but especially , as regards things coming out of rave, to study the history of drugs alongside the history of music as a means of gauging the general psyche of music qua...

mmm yes please on the vote for a set of this stuff. it's delicious! i first heard anything remotely i n this genre when i picked up the Warp 10+1 Influences cd when it first came out, and it blew me away! I was in high school and mostly listened to gimpy breakbeat trance...

hahahah true story: we knew a snitch who'd give party information to fox news and the los angeles desert rave task force sent them bunk directions plenty of times it was real cute to see a couple of sheriff's vans heading out to a town called weed patch to bust a party at an defunct oil rig...

It's certainly not limited to African-Americans; I'm thoroughly white-bread (white-bred? there's mexican in there some where but it's neither apparent nor in the way I was raised, except coincidentally or subconsciously) and I do it frequently, particularly with race. What's odd is that I find...

heard galvanize, sounds good for the poppier side of things: could play it at anything with young people and feel ok. haven't heard the other one, but i just wanted to say that repeated listenings to exit planet dust and their electronic battle weapon series continue to intrigue both the crunchy...
