same old boring suspects as in 'aren't we bored of seeing the same names over and over and over in all these magazines?'. i wasn't suggesting that the music these artists make is boring or devoid of merit . . . that would be another issue/can of worms altogether. ;-)

two separate situations here. i'm talking about reviews and features in this sentence, NOT the electronica feature. would they let me review _Feed Me Weird Things_? no. _Drum & Bass for Papa_? no. how about little pieces on Vibert or Jenkinson? uh ... no. no. no. no. the revolutionaries don't warrant page space. oh, but watch the Plug/D&B4P coverage flood those pages once the Nothing reissue hits the streets and promo stacks. . .
