    Remember "journalism"?

    I usually avoid Tabloids like the plague. Nevertheless I am using public transport a lot more these days, and there is this rag that's for free available at those boxes in railway/underground stations. So I took one recently. And, while tabloids never were hotbeds of information in the written...

    Trump

    I actually don't think anybody is factually pulling strings. In hindsight, it looked as if Bannon was trying. It's however a fact that Trump is indeed a "fake president" in so far as he isn't actually doing anything anymore that could be called "policy making". That guy after all appears to have...

    Trump

    So, the guy is now ten months in office. What has he actually achieved? Apart from some dubious "deals" (remember, he is the "deal maker" after all). The only thing he will get through, possibly, is the tax cut for the fat cats, err I mean tax "reform". Over here in continental Europe, he...

    You are a white heterosexual male, Craner - thus, you are basically Hitler.

    if New York can die so can London

    So with Brexit induced downsizing/leaving of several headquarters of companies/EU-related organisations etc leaving - will this have a noticeable effect on London? Maybe housing getting cheaper again and such?

    Electro

    electro was also a very important starting point for many people in so far that it was the first electronic (dance) music lots of peeps were enjoying. I remember reading / listening to many interviews with prime movers of the 1990s electronic music revolution who were referring to electro as an...

    The (semi-)public loves witchhunts, and this time the witches are old men. Old men, mostly part of the "hollywood elite"

    I think also Baile Funk was heavily inspired by electro/booty bass

    Electro

    IF is an uber-nerd regarding analog synths and old drum machines. He started in the early to mid 90s making hard-ish techno and acid on bunker records and then went further back historically speaking concentrating on electro. Here is his hit from 1997:

    Electro

    Not only in the south, we, the old grumps, remember that stuff called "Booty Bass" which was and is still being produced in places like Detroit, droid mentioned it already. Basically, sped up "classic" electro. There was a small hype in the late 90s in places like Germany for this kind of stuff...

    Electro

    One also has to state that electro (a lot bc of the breakdance craze) was very popular from 83-till 85/86, there were top ten hits like the following in '85: or (a bit chees'ed up) theme songs for TV shows or superbly successful movies like the following bits:

    Electro

    Lines were blurry in the early to mid80s. I have this collection of a German music mag that ran a "dance" column from 82 till 89, and the guys reviewed stuff like electro, new wave, italo-disco, hi-nrg up to early chicago house all under the umbrella "dance". also great that this mag had ads...
