    Futures

    i think i saw a similar documentary, well part of it. 'Super Volcanoes' Apparently, all of Yellowstone park is one big volcano. And the one in particular they were discussing (dont remember where...) was said to hold "20 Grand Canyons worth of magma". Freakish.

    Rave revival?

    in this sense... rave cant be 'revived' either. raving, here, never stopped. promoters never stopped throwing them and people never stopped going. it has, however, gone through several different phases of life. from illegal underground warehouses in the 80s to the massives in convention...

    Rave revival?

    I just picked up this record: http://www.deathbombarc.com/releases/dba033.htm And the description on it mentions this "ravesploitation" scene as well. Has anyone heard of this? the record is all booty. very simple, cheesey synth lines, old-school sounding rhythms and deeep bass lines, with...
