Great post. Making me think twice about Wonky
Got another wonky bootleg here if anyone's interested?
Fulgeance vs Brandy - Absolute Belta

do you know what's so shockingly refreshing about that amazing post: it talks, at the highest level, about the music.
as music crit gets up to the highest levels, i'm often left with the nagging feeling that the actual music - structures, tones, arrangements, developments - is getting left behind, such that the only currency of value is the cultural one.
an example of this is at the nuum conference when Luton's Exodus collective were held up as the pinnacle of jungle in the context of Thatcher's Britain. now fair play to them but you'd only put them at the absolute pinnacle of the jungle movement if you were looking for socio-political movements within musical cultures, not the musical cultures themselves.
Wicked -- more please!

If people are ok with it i'll post a wav for anyone wants to play it out?
