    The music journalism hall of shame thread

    The live event review thing is something that happens regularly in Kerrang and the like, which makes it even weirder that DANCE MUSIC doesn't have the same sort of coverage of live events. As stated by rrrivero, it would be useful, particularly for nights that occur semi regularly like Butterz /...

    The music journalism hall of shame thread

    It was partially a Hyperspecific feature that I was referencing to in my head when I wrote out that big ol' post on page one. One of the earlier ones from this year was posted on the "Future Garage" subreddit and was getting a lot of love. I couldn't stand it. I see he's now putting up links...

    The music journalism hall of shame thread

    My main gripes with the current state of music journalism is how impersonal most of it is and the lack of preparation or effort put into reviews and interviews. Also it seems that the barrier to entry / the quality of writing for glorified tumblr blogs or online magazines is at rock bottom...

    It looks like it was photo day at a mental home and they took 10 minutes to get you to sit right. The other one is nice though.

    ergh. "every second drips with tropical pinks and oranges" The hype around this tune was sickening. I honestly preferred the use of "steel drums" in this:

    The music journalism hall of shame thread

    Obviously this might be a sensitive topic as many of you have your own blogs / contribute your own articles but I feel that as a whole, good / decent music journalism is practically non-existent. I've seen it been discussed to a degree in individual genre topics but I feel it needs its own...

    Classic House

    Just copped this aswell. The flip is sick! Bang Diddley, you are costing me money. This whole thread might have been a bad idea. Big up student finance though.

    Classic House

    Thank you to everyone posting in this thread, I usually click play and go straight to discogs to find out how much the track is, and then quickly hit pause and move onto the next one as soon as I see the price. Pattycakes post on page 2 was the most expensive with the first 3 classic house...

    channel u classics

    Wasn't watching Channel U back in the day but these are some favourites that judging by YouTube comments were on there. No Idea if this was. Is brilliant anyway. Get's better the more times you listen.

    "Bok Bok - Midnight Stop" is the best track on the mix by a long way. Waiting for someone to get it on youtube. He plays if for a lot longer on the latest Night Slugs show though.

    It sagged a bit in the middle. My only real complaint is that he didn't play Dark Hearts.
