RE: influx....
the problem with "dance music" was that it....once again.....labelled itself.
it immediately suggested limits by definign it's function and purpose.
it's either dance or not dance.
the nice thing about good pop music is the way it builds on emotion and remains so very human.
if electronic music can bridge this gap and accept the fact that people who don't club are dancing around to franz ferdinand and the likes...in their cars and bedrooms....
i think electronic music will experience a new revival.
but it's so inwardly directed and focused and.....it needs to reach beyond.
plus....the dj-as-star thing seems to have run it's course.
dj as guy spinning cool discs for the masses' enlightenment and pleasure.....sure!!!.....but mega-star?
REALLY!?!?!
