Article featured in a local birmingham paper "The Night Times" which mainly focus' on birminghams nightlife and music/fashion etc.
I mean birmingham has only just recently started having some regular nights but its cause there was no one willing to push it and potentially lose money! Until the last 6-9 months or so anyway........ And thank you someone has finally chosen to take the risk imo.
Comments?

who gives a fuck though. all publicity is good publicity, etc
I have been told we can write a reply by one of the chaps who runs the paper and he might publish it, just dont know where to start. I have the tendency to waffle.

The best thing that can be said about that article is that you can almost see the writer frothing at the mouth as he bashes the keyboard keys one by one in true rant-frenzy.
I'm curious about the part about the "wonders of the jungle/drum and bass scene" I have listened to dnb for like 15 years... I guess I still haven't discovered the wonders. Maybe I should keep listening to it? Nah.
There is nothing in this " article " to justify the views expressed... Where is the meat ?
Not a single word on construction, " inter-generic playfulness ", the different aesthetics or approaches ( use of silence as an instrument, minimalism, maximalism, etc. ) at work in this genre... what we have here is a poorly-written rant disguised as a critique. The writer's obvious ignorance culminates in dogmatic, adjective-driven propositions.
