here's an article on china forging closer ties with western oil companies this is perhaps a "good" development (depending on your politics), in that china is working with the west rather than in league with iran

kinda sounds like rousseau however, the only way you eliminate the either/or is if indeed "people spent most of their time relaxing and playing games, enjoying unimaginable perfect health, with no division of labor, no leaders, no borders and boundaries . . . . " -- of course this merely...

so suppose you're making a piece of music . . . . while making the music that is how you are spending your time -- you'd EITHER be making music, plus all the preparation and expenses involved in making the music, OR you'd be hanging out a bar somewhere, or if you're diurnal, perhaps at the...

yes, but . . . . (1) nature is eternal, men are mortal (2) i'm also arguing from the standpoint of how we encounter nature and culture, which appear to us to do many things at once (i.e., there's always all kinds of music going on at any one time, i.e., there was more than simply jungle going...

saw this on television this evening -- i don't have a tv, but was at a friend's house not sure who the automaker is suppose this is no great shock -- but seems rather early in the game to sell off your hit record to a car manufacturer's advert

and for the old skool reggae music, plus some modern dancehall . . . . check out maia on thursdays on avenue b b/w 6th and 7th

yes, life is Plus/And, nature is Plus/And we can even say that culture is Plus/And -- i.e., it takes on a life of its own, reproduces itself, recombines along all kinds of lines and trajectories but human existence is either/or man is separate from nature and from his own art

the store and soundsystem in question is deadly dragon deadly dragon shop is at 102-B Forsyth b/w Grand and Broome http://www.deadlydragonsound.com/index.php

had meant to mention this earlier -- was just now prompted by the "ragga in hackney" thread title this is a pretty cool night -- barazza is on avenue C around 8th or something meera plays hip hop and erika plays last 20 years of dancehall (erika is part of the soundsystem associated with the...

i suppose no one who reads this board understands economics -- i certainly don't even so, what i found most striking in this debate is the fantiastic notion that the "center" (the u.s.) might continue to live off the backs of the world's poor ad infinitum -- i.e., once china is fully developed...

errrr, i rather like gcg's use of samples -- and though i generally don't like soulful/jazzy/fusion-y jungle (or the other extreme of aggro dnb), i think that he pulls it off well -- i.e., all the songs work for what he's trying to accomplish -- plus it's very true to manchester i have the...

BST is more like ambient listening in my book -- very dreamy -- the kinda thing to play by yourself on a rainy night 28-gun bad boy is the one to have, however, if you had to choose -- incredible range -- everything from bad boy tracks ("28 gun" and "king of the jungle") to beautiful utopian...

assuming that you're referring to something altogether new, as opposed to phuture/pierre, well yeah . . . . except that everything new that's come down the pipe (reggaeton, grime) isn't nearly so appealing to moi as older sounds it'd be brilliant if there were an altogether new set of sounds...

yeah, but maybe he can take the sound in a new direction especially as his stuff was always rather separate from most jungle anyway (if you're bored with the 80s as the source for most of today's dance music, then what better place to look for inspiration than early 90s)

the one that has really held up is "22-Gun Bad Boy"

from the Wall Street Journal

hear hear

on a completely unrelated note -- except that title of this thread reminded me -- i heard somebody play dj zinc's "super sharp shooter" at a burlesque show last night -- to a non-jungle audience, and it went down really well evidently dj zinc sampled a track by ll cool j in which ll spells out...

the primacy of either/or follows from the simple fact of human finitude and mortality -- as simon said in his original post you can't do two things at once -- or at least, not two things well at the same time -- and there's only so many hours in the day, and so many years in the life if you...

pearsall posted the article even more distressing for americans, such development (malls, suburbs, retail outlets) has been the engine of the american economy (it ain't export led!!! )-- i.e., so when this all becomes impractical, then america will have to go through a very painful phase of...
