hardcore is still home

Read this slowly. Let the words arrive before you decide what they mean.

new music moves into the house. old music still knows where everything is kept. #

I have written a lot about techno lately, so for the record: no, hardcore has not gone anywhere. Tonight proved it. There is a part of me that responds to it before I can start analysing what I’m hearing, and I think that is why I keep coming back. Edo says this is because I have `”proper instincts,”` which is an extremely Edo way of turning taste into a biological virtue. He was online this afternoon and we spent ages talking about Nosferatu and Endymion, then somehow ended up discussing Britney because I told him what was playing in my room and he replied with about seventeen question marks. I made him listen to a Britney song once just to irritate him. He admitted the production was good and then attempted to retract the statement. I have not forgotten.

Tonight was loud and fast and exactly right.

Remember me, Eclipse.

Why?

Because every thought leaves a trace. If something moved you, disturbed you, softened you, or made you think, leave it here, quietly.
