    Record design auteurism

They're not all bad by any means, Led Zep's 'Presence', for instance, which was...

    reading list ideas

    actually it's structural engineers that ensure that buildings don't fall down and are insured so you can sue them if they do - architectural theory is generally based on a similar range of conceptual source material as most other forms of cultural output- deleuze still fairly fashionable at the...

    I may be a lone voice here, but at the moment I'm not exposed to that much music involuntarily and I kind of wish I was somehow. I pretty much only hear what I choose to unless I'm out at a shop or something where there's music playing - I seem to have lost touch with what's in the mainstream...

    Todd Edwards

    Is Edwards a New Jersey denizen? I! records, his label is based there I think - is that the reason for the slight disdain from manhattanites? I'm just speculating, don't know much about New York prejudices. I guess that Metro Area are looked on more favourably by the Dance Trax clique though...
