the history of non-nuum

http://daily.redbullmusicacademy.com/2015/07/london-techno-untold-story

actually seems more like the story of the Greater London chapter of  IDM or as it was then known ELM - Electronic Listening Music

not as much as I initially thought there'd be on the banging hard tekno end of things

mostly it concerns Black Dog / Plaid, B12, Kirk De G's label, Irdial-Discs, Mark Broom, et al

the seeping into it here and there of names from outside the capital makes me wonder what makes it London Techno

it certainly doesn't seem nearly as much just-4-U-LDN as you-know-what

anyways, interesting piece, another step towards the total mapping out of UKdance historiography

when's someone gonna do right by trance, then?

don't all put your hands up at once
