    Is "Miscellaneous" now "dumping ground"?

    Misc used to be a great catagory - some really good, odd threads in here that evolved (dental care!) - it was sort of an insight to people beyond their ruminating on music, books etc. But now all the events are landing in here. Why? Just kind of feel that this is going to get overloaded with...

    Robbie Williams at Madame Tussauds?

    Haha - I would never have guessed from seeing it! Yeah, that is meant to be RW I think. When you say it is meant to be Robbie Williams, you more see where it has gone wrong! The hair is probably about right, but the face is just... wrong! Has some poor person really got that as a tattoo...

    Wiley's eski-œuvre

    Surely I am not the only one who loves the brevity and teasing nature of Logan's responses? Surely knowing who it is who did them, but simply answering the question!

    Clipped audio levels.

    Yeah - Matt, if you are using an M-Audio quattro, there should be a button on it to switch the level in which it comes in. I have found with it open that either playing out (to mixing desk) or in (to soundforge) that there is a noticable amount of clipping. If you switch it, you get none, but...

    french rejection of EU constitution

    The rejection will just result in a rethink. I think many people voted no on the basis of inflation from the Euro, and many just to make a point that they aren't so keen on Europe compared to the politicians, and this was their first chance to express it. the idea that this will lead to the...

    xlr8r mag this month

    I still cannot find a copy of this anywhere mms - which branches? I tried Borders Oxford St to no avail. I get the feeling I may have to take the punt and subscribe. How much does it work out at?

    Wiley's eski-œuvre

    Logan would be best placed to answer this! To be honest I no longer know how many Wiley whites I have - labelling is always so obscure, and folk tell you things aren't really what you thought they were, etc etc...

    Killing Joke

    Yeah - one of few things I know on there is that Alex NYC is a killing Joke obsessive. I think he drew most of the album covers in that microsoft draw contest.

    Killing Joke

    The wrong site, surely? I think a certain somebody on ILM/ILX would be best suited to solve this, Matt!

    fugari djs every sunday at nublu

    given the enormity of the Northern Soul scene around Manchester (my Dad was a long-time Twisted Wheel member) I don't find it particularly surprising if anyone called these comparisons, as they were also pretty much perfectly one generation appart. Whitworth street (one of the Wheel's homes) is...

    top piece from Blackdown on Pitchfork

    logan is On the Money I like the point he is presenting. Kano and Roll Deep can't go balls out Grime - the label would throw it back at them. They need to bring it in for the others, or for their future albums. No band has ever really put out the sound they want to on a major until their...

    Grime sampling Eric Clapton's Layla...

    It is pretty great, innit?! I like the way these guys don't see anything as a no-go area. {pedant} It was actually Derek and the Domino's {/pedant}

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    Vice find the time for the article after his death. When was it written? Was the main thing that promoted the publication the handiness of tapping an epitaph on the end, in the classic last line hit that Vice so enjoys? For me Vice has always tried too hard. It starts off as being close to...

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    Exactly Dom. It truly shows they have no idea of a line which shouldn't be passed. I found it quite sickening that they did it, especially with the postscript note in the style they did.

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    I would like to think that the current issue of vibe would promote many here to admit that it is culturally and morally bankrupt. To hear that a certain article has been published, and in the style it has, would offend many here. Those who have seen it will know what I mean.

    The 90s Canon

    A lot will be about Creation, some about the Spice Girls - women take control of pop, a Radiohead "the band that changed a decade" piece, Spiritualized "Ladies and Gentlemen...", The Verve. Every reason you wouldn't want to read a magazine, really.

    Susumu Yokota

    Sorry - I have never got the Susumu Yokata thing. Everyone hypes him in electronica (Grinning Cat especially) and I just don't get it.
