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 "Eon" Loveday, Peter "Baby" Ford, and J. Saul Kane Vinyl Solution camp. 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 listening to Janet Jackson 12"s. *shudder* MACHINE SOUL: A History of Techno, by Jon Savage, is available at http://hyperreal.com/music/misc/machine_soul.html as part of the http://hyperreal.com:2000/1/music/misc section.
