who then get lost in the plethora of shite..

word to these last 2 posts, bang on, I suggest to anyone who came into this whole thing later on to spend a few weeks only listening to pre 1996 stuff, maybe then they would understand.. In the past each producer had their own sound.. I think what happened is each of those producers had 50 people copy them which is why we're in the situation we're in now.. I went record shopping yesterday, and didn't buy anything from after 1997, not because it was from 1997 and before, but because they were the only good records I seemed to be able to find in the shop....

There are a few good bits coming thru here and there but in your average dj's lust to get more gigs, more exposure, half baked stuff is getting releases which shouldn't even make it out of the studio (haha, there's a funny concept, studio..er, off the computer desk I should say) let alone onto vinyl.. where did that thought come from: make as many records as possible = more exposure = more gigs = i am now a big name ? doesn't work like that, quality over quantity is what counts

This is not a dig at anyone who came into this scene slightly later or people who make music with computers btw, just my observation from my viewpoint at what has happened.. there are some people who make very good music on computers, just as I say, it's lost in the fudge these days due to the amount of crap around..
