    I know it's foolish to do so but....

    im sure you dont care if it was a big pop track or not, but that was its point, and of course you dont have to like it, but it resonated for lots of people and when so many tracks are pushed why did this hit the spot for so many people? admittedly it does sound like that blueboy track from a...

    I know it's foolish to do so but....

    well im not someone who is that aware of pop or r'n'b but the gnarls barkley track is in my conciousness cos it was everywhere and day to day people connected and referenced it as i went about my boring life, so petridish is right in that it was the standout track it hit a resonant point who...

    Rock 'n' roll: more harm than good?

    New to you in 2006

    "But where are the Eurotrance records to match 'Spacerwoman' or 'Robot is Systematic'? Maybe they exist, but Italo-disco is remembered I feel more for its post-Moroder experiments than its cheesiness." Discomagic - S.Y.D featuring Nancy Fortune definitely has a dose of cheesiness thing that...

    c-tune pretty much does it for me, if you can go for the whole 60min one track thing, starts off droning and then starts to change with the guitar flicks, pretty spectacular especially if you think you know and are bored by the drone thing talking of 60 min tracks anyone know consume red -...
