bored of the danceFloor most of the 90s Alexis Petridis - and a whole generation - thought that dance music could change the world. But then came superclubs, superstar DJs and rampant commercialism. Now, as even the staid old Brit Awards turn their back on the genre, he laments the passing of the most exciting musical movement in decades.

The intro says

quote:

It's hard to believe you are taking part in a countercultural happening when it is sponsored by Paco Rabanne and broadcast live on the BBC

Yet the first paragraph says

quote:

"That [dance music] scene is returning to its underground roots. The award was no longer right for a mass television audience."

But the Brits announcement has not come in isolation; it follows the collapse in the last two years of three dance music magazines (Muzik, Ministry and Jockey Slut), the news that London superclub Ministry of Sound's revenues have fallen by more than a third since 2001, and, most recently, the commercial failure of the latest albums from Britain's two biggest dance acts, Fatboy Slim and the Prodigy. Fatboy Slim's 1998 album You've Come a Long Way Baby, sold a total of 5m copies around the world; his latest, Palookaville, dropped out of the top 75 after only three weeks. Dance music has been sickly and twitching for some years; the fact that even an institution as terminally unhip as the Brits thinks it's over, however, sounds like the final nail being banged into the coffin of what was once the most important and exciting musical genre-cum-youth movement in the world.


and i was not using these articals as baises for all fact poited to the death of dance, just playing.

Originally posted by smallSHEEP I see that people that live in council funded housing have now found their way onto the internet; well I can’t say I’m entirely surprised. However, I suggest you get a proxy (such as a 5 year old child) to proof read any posts you wish to make on this forum to save embarrassment. This one is on me:

Anyway, how does one this stupid survive to 30 years of age?
If you had said 12 we could have at least understood the (lacking) quality of your posts.
