I just spent the better part of two days typing in this article. Albeit
old, it is one of the better features of its type, in spite of a ridiculous
overabundance of colons and its shameful oversight of the important Ian

If it weren't for LFO, 808 State, and "Spice" in 1989-90, I'd still be
listening to Janet Jackson 12"s right now. Wait a minute. I *am* still
