    Sad news regarding DnB - Spirit aka Duncan Busto died on 26th of August Spirit who has been releasing tunes for over two decades (on labels like Timeless, CIA or his own imprint Inneractive) died on 26th of August due to complications after a cardiac arrest. RIP. One of my fav tracks of his.

    With Putin being high ranking KGB and and looking at what's going on during the last few years in Europe (russian money for right wing parties etc) or with Trump all of this makes a lot of sense.

    In defence of post dubstep

    I blame social media for this. The swarm intelligence of the early to mid 2000s have became the total opposite in the 2010s - swarm idiocy - when "discourse" is done via emojis you get a definite Spenglerian moment.

    In defence of post dubstep

    Best pop music, at least in my view, always came from people with a working class background. Music used to be a way to escape the drudgery of crappy shit-jobs.

    1990s hypes revisited - loose series installment 05 - "French House"

    I don't know if this was actually a "thing" in the UK at all, on the continent it was - "French House". There weren't many French pop-music acts getting international recognition before the electornic (dance) music revolution of the 1990s. Jean Michelle Jarre, some dicso outfits. I think that...

    Trump

    That the Democrats don't have anyone high profile enough to be considered a contender today isn't that much of a problem imo. In history it was repeatedly the case that some formerly unknowns got nominated and won. Bill Clinton for instance was considerd to have zero chances against "Desert...

    If the republicans get smashed to pieces in the mid term elections, Trump is finished. Simple as that.

    The fact that this clown is actually demanding a hard brexit is rather breath-taking.

    Trump

    So is that actually really a thing? I mean are there people, wearing a MAGA hat, eating a bloody steak and while doing so posting pix on their instagram saying: "there, take that, u cultural vegan marxist, I am stuffing myself with a dead cow just to stick it to you"

    Trump

    There is at least a connection between soy farmers of the mid-west who voted for Trump and are now being fucked over by Trump's trade-war with China. So talking about plants and farming makes some sense also in a Trump thread.

    Trump

    Meat eating on a mass-basis is a relatively young development. The vast majority of people in the past didn't have that luxury anyways. The ultimate crux, at least imo, in this question isn't so much meat or vegetarian/vegan. It's basically the fact industrialized agriculture definitley hasd...

    World Cup 2018

    This has to be won by the French. I mean let's imagine some guy was in a coma for five years or so, wakes up and realizes: Trump is POTUS, Great Britian is out of the EU and friggin Croatia is world champion!
