Yup, yup, when "Switched-On
Bach" was released, he was Walter, later he became she, Wendy. I don't know
how much that sort of thing costs. I never thought about how much pain it might
cause my bankbook.
You're right, The Chemical Brothers!
They're incredibly popular in trance/jungle/tekno/industrial music circles.
They're not my cup of tea, but it's easy to find tens of thousands of kids who
go nuts over them.
Should I open a can of worms and point
out that there seems to be a high correlation between people who love
trance/jungle/tekno/industrial music, and people who love to take the drug
ecstacy (MDMA)? Can a raver enjoy the same love of The Chemical Brothers without
The Chemical?
My beef with
trance/jungle/tekno/industrial is that it's what happened when Disco met
Electronic Music and had a baby. There's still an awful lot of unmistakable
Disco in trance/jungle/tekno/industrial. Oh ... and Disco sux.
