    Syria

    well, you might educate yourself about Assad, his dear daddy and the "baathist way" in general at the same time. Trust me, a "Assad" is perfectly capable of gassing his own people.

    Worst Post-Peak Declines/ Falls From Greatness

    According to the discogs entry to this EP, Dillinja was involved in this late '93 track. I stumbled across this only recently via some tracklist, apparently this track wasn't cained by the usual suspects back at the time. However, I think it's marvellous:

    Cambridge Analytica + Psyops + The Beast

    March 2018 wasn't a great month for the IT-behemoths. FB-Datascandal, the "autonomous" Uber car killing a person.

    Russia Surrounded

    A thing that everyone seems to have forgotten - the French glorious attempt to resurrect their colonial empire was the root of the Vietnam debacle.

    Worst Post-Peak Declines/ Falls From Greatness

    Diplo, however I was never much of a fan and I dont't think he was "great" really, but I noticed the guy in the mid2000s as a dj/producer searching for interesting stuff in other places, like Baile Funk and such. Then, a couple years later the guy reappears as a prime mover in the aural terror...

    R.E.M.

    REM - the somewhat bearable U2. Gotta admit I like some songs, and connect teenage memories with them, since they had a great run in '91 and '92, when I was starting to get interested in (pop)music. However I couldn't name or remember any of their songs past '92, Apparently they kept on making...

    Blandness is evil, or why Dissensus is shit

    Russia Surrounded

    Yeah, his paranoia is "understandable" in so far that he is career KGB, was an eye-witness to Honecker's downfall and the end of the GDR, and has been surrounded by the soviet/then russian military industrial complex most of his adult life. Those people's main business is being paranoid...

    Blandness is evil, or why Dissensus is shit

    I actually like this forum. It's one of the last survivers of the 2000's internet forum golden era - the web's tassle flosser. May live it long and prosper.

    That's exactly what these "culture wars" are about.

    Cambridge Analytica + Psyops + The Beast

    On the topic: Methinks, the only thing that will stick is the data-theft. Whether they successfully influenced the election in Trumps favor we will never know. With the narrow outcome, it seems plausible. That said, FB sucks by itself on so many levels without CA already. They censor and delete...

    Hardcore Continuum Autopsy

    @owengriffiths, I am referring to the situation in Germany (and austria) of course, there the "serious" media definitley totally ignored Trance. There was a little bit of coverage in the early 1990s with the success of the Frankfurt label "Harthouse" (run by still-jet-setting DJ Sven Väth). But...

    Hardcore Continuum Autopsy

    You are correct, I was referring to the "tasteful" hip circles (The "Bergheim" fraternity if you will). But then, Trance never was being covered by "serious" dance/music media. Which is kinda interesting bc it seems to be successful for 25 years now, even jumped on the "EDM" bandwagon. It's a...

    Hardcore Continuum Autopsy

    The forums worked very well for roughly a decade as a centre of attraction - from ca 2003 - 2013, when people got on the net via broadband on their PCs/Laptops. Then you had a quick decline bc people moved over to social media on their smartphones. And you simply can't interact that well in such...

    Hardcore Continuum Autopsy

    As a "European" I gotta say that's an interesting take. In Europe however the - semi hip - dance people (those who still run clubs, throw parties, run labels etc) , or to be precise Germany, are still pushing minimal techno for over 20 years now. It's the stuff that clutters the dj-charts. So...
