Comments on: Reynolds in contrarian wobble-embracing shock! http://blog.grievousangel.net/reynolds-in-contrarian-wobble-embracing-shock Shards, Fragments and Totems: Grievous Angel in liminal space Tue, 08 Feb 2011 23:09:51 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Kelcey http://blog.grievousangel.net/reynolds-in-contrarian-wobble-embracing-shock/comment-page-1#comment-3686 Kelcey Mon, 03 Aug 2009 16:44:23 +0000 http://blog.grievousangel.net/?p=747#comment-3686 Always all respect to Reynolds but I have the same problem with a lot of his opinions on BASS music as of late. His critique seems to come from some hypothetical dancefloor of the mind instead of the actual dancefloor. I witnessed the power Joy Orbison's tuens just a few weeks ago in a club probably only a few blocks from Reynold's home as Ramadanman blew the roof off of Dubwar with what I'm pretty certain was the NYC's first big system taste of UK Funky. Skankers of all ages were climbing the walls and banging on the booth ledge to get the reload. Simon, come down to Dubwar more often and witness an actual "crowd aving it apeshit" to new Funky sounds instead of basking in conjecture with your headphones on.

And that is simply NOT NUUM.
