I dunno man. I am as lost as you are. I am pretty new to the electronica scene though. I started listening to Electronic music like just a year and a half ago.

A trainspotter is someone who can name songs being played during the night... (I know thats one definition)

When the scottish bloke is kicking the habit of heroin he is locked in his room, he has trains-wallpaper and he kinda goes mad n there

errr...from i've heard trainspotting is "looking for the next big hit" in regards to a herion/drug hit i think

...dunno if this is the same in regards to music scene, but it makes a lot of sense with the movie
