Cool, I luuuv MAW. They meant so much to me during my formative years , in every possible way. *deserves their own thread* ¨Love Guide'0 was the song I was thinkinh f when I thought of alternative Switch productions that sound a bit MI.A-esque but with better rapping. Aceness. I still withold...

I would like to give a more exhaustive answer at a later time, but anyway. We don’t have anything resembling the Ivy League in Sweden. Broadly speaking, the emphasis is on what you have studied rather than where you have studied. That’s a pretty steep generalisation, though: some universities...

I mean: how unsettling wouldn’t it be if they found someone to sing those (I’m sure) gruesome lyrics in English?

Has anyone been watching those freaky car bomb videos from Iraq? That music — now that’s some spooky guerrilla shit. I guess I’m suggesting that someone should compile and release them ASAP.

OMG, that’s a great name for a band.

I like ‘Bird Flu’ the most; ‘Boyz’ is a close second. The Switch productions are pretty good but sound exactly like his remixes, so if you have been into those you are basically getting more of the same + dodgy rapping. (‘Bird Flu’ and ‘Boyz’ sound like Diplo productions.) I cannot understand a...

I’m friends with a few city-bankers and, contrary to what Vimothy says, they argue that most any non-educated noob could do their work if given a month’s on-the-job training or so. Thus, I’m highly sceptical of anyone claiming that high wages are predominantly a function of ability. Such a claim...

Why do all the threads on economics always end up with tedious slugfests?

HELLO JANEK! Are you from Poland?

Maybe it keeps the crime levels down.

Ha ha, it sounds like DDR.

Are you sure? I read Diplo saying something to the effect of ‘We are all on the French’s dick now’ [meaning sebastiAn, Justice et al]. I guess I find that hard to believe.

Ok, here we go with Vimothy’s questionable links on the allegedly pitiful state of Sweden. The main problem with them is that they come from very unreliable sources, are very old, and are mostly very much beside the point. Like with the two year old comment from then Social Democrat PM Göran...

You mean this? Or this? Yeah, most people over here dance like shit = barely at all and mostly to pull.

I’m not saying that one of them is worse than the other — I would just like to keep the distinction, that’s all.

I only dance when I’m sober or thereabouts. When I’m drunk I seldom get the urge to dance. It mostly takes about ten minutes of dancing until I get that unselfconscious feeling that makes me unconcerned with anybody’s checking me out; it’s not like I’m shy or anything, but somehow it just feels...

I believe that their grip on the supply side of the market could be said to be similar, yes. My main point being that censorship need not necessarily be decreed from above by some governmental body, but can be imposed by powerful actors on the market. I’m not saying that censorship is a bad...

But you are just shying away from the term ‘censorship’ here. It’s not censorship as in ‘we are going to forbid you from making your voice heard’, but a promotor-led boycott — if successful — would still have that exact effect in practise. It’s like how Wal-Mart has effectively made American...
