Chill out man, I suspect he is pointing out the ridiculousness of
this argument by proclaiming is love for an obselete sound format i.e.
shellac. PS this is a ridiculous argument, so stop it.
OK lets change the subject - Heres a recommendation for a
summer's almost over but lets try to hang on to that vibe for just a
little longer type record. The disc in question is by Dmitri from Paris,
and its called Sacre Bleu. Its got House, Hip Hop, EZ listening,
loungy jazz and an allround chill summery Parisian feel. So got out and buy
it kids.
OK lets change the subject again. Let me put forward my heartfelt
condolences to the Global Headz crew (i.e. the Big Chill) who
were left after the Gala with 60,000 pounds of debt and have now ceased
trading. This is a terrible shame. Glabal Headz were pioneers
of a forward looking ambient/experimental/eclectic London music scene,
and just as it semmed they were getting the message across this happens.
Blame the postal strikes for poor sales of Gala Tickets, blame the people
of Diss for being tossers about the first site for the Gala.
Pete Lawrence and co have put on more excellent events than I can
remember and last years Gala will go down in history as the best festival
I have ever been to, and most likely ever will. Thanks a lot guys,
and good luck for the future, I'm sure you'll get it together again.
Cheers
