    Gorillaz

    I think the real difference you are identifying can only be down to the move from Dan the Automator as producer to Dangermouse. I had always found that the idea and reputation of Dan was hugely better than anything he ever delivered - I can remember picking up records to check and being hugely...

    DJ Top 100 2005

    Blackdown - I think you misread the thread, and seem to have just copied the back of last month's DMZ flier! :)

    hip-hop, where to begin?

    confucius - I am guessing that people are recommending things, and then they are being downloaded and listened to by our learning party. The favourites are the ones liked, so to help with selection going forward.

    Forum Leaders - We Are The Mods

    Can we have some new forums with individual mods? I would like an MPC / Stelfox forum for amusement, and a Logan Sama forum (where all posts must be as minimal in content as possible).

    The Wire's Covers Thing

    Their version of Soul Limbo is pretty great too.

    Noone told me we're meeting. :(

    "Working for The Yankee Dollar"

    Oh man! How frustrating! That is so obvious once dHarry said, and now that tune is wedged in my head!

    Moments you think you're losing your mind.

    Motorway service stations - there is a really scary one around Preston with a look-out tower. One thing that has always really unknerved me about motorway service stations. As they are designed for a break from driving, why are the arcade machines nearly always driving simulators?

    heads up londoners!

    This really doesn't suggest you are coming from the best angle on this, other than to oppose, does it Melchior?! I can understand people not liking what happened - the initial action of enquiring I support, but the whole idioticy that followed is worrying. Stopping people they see as suspects...

    MIA's Honda Advert!

    Freudian slip, Dave?!

    Before you post yet another, ask yourself

    Personally I can't understand the reason why people would come straight to the music forum - it isn't exactly complicated, and a lot of the other forums are regularly a lot more interesting than the content can be in the music (and I was drawn here originally by the music section). As for the...

    Spider Plants

    They are a bit of a penance, spider plants. My ex-girlfriend had several, and they were huge. She kept on palming off the "child" plants that form to other people. They must be one of the most hardy plants on the face of the earth, as even I can't kill em.

    Goldfrapp's change in style

    Tricky question, Simon. Kompakt, as the forefathers of the scene, have pretty much turned their back on it. I think the feeling was they were becoming known as a Schaffel label and they never were that. There are still labels doing Schaffel tunes every now and then, but as for being a...

    Dissensus Anniversary

    Good work all involved. And a good opportunity to put this back where it belongs - on the index page instead of the porn thread.

    rachel stevens

    Well, it was quite questionable whether they had the rights to record it, isn't it? The original version of the song is so much better than theirs (and their version is pretty good).

    Unilever Series - Rachel Whiteread

    They have mentioned the sugar cube theme, but noone has seen the pun. The story is that they are ten different forms of boxes. The piece is called "Embankment" (must have spent *AGES* working on that one). Other comments are about her having been looking at polar ice cap melting and things...

    Unilever Series - Rachel Whiteread

    There has been so much press solely speculating on this work (most probably generated as a result of Whiteread's reputation combined with Olafur Eliasson's coup-de-gras last year), I thought a thread here would be good for opinion. I was along yesterday, and it looked - quite frankly - like...

    interesting bloc party interview

    No - and I thought that interview made it pretty clear that they refused to discuss sexuality, which in turn has promoted the speculation about that very topic. A poor man's effort to stir up some interest in a pretty banal band. The irony of the wannabe journalist in a band appearing -...

    interesting bloc party interview

    I think it is a big mistake between saying what they listen to, and what they see as an influence. It is surreal to think that they are influenced by grime. I would almost argue that, as grime is in itself a fresh and developing genre, the suggestion you are influenced by it is laughable.
