The Turntable Club Turns Its Camera Onnew
A few years ago, the big novelty in the touring industry was instant live albums, CD recordings of a concert that were available almost immediately after the show was over. And it would make sense that instant concert DVDs would follow.

The Oscillatornew
In the absence of new material, Craig's remixes have probably done more to enhance his legendary status than if he'd gone ahead and released a classic album. Getting a Carl Craig remix guarantees a receptive techno audience the same way a Lil Wayne guest verse does with hip-hop fans.

Mr. Wrong: Missile Attacknew
Wowee, I sure am glad they (as in Us) shot down that top-secret military spy satellite. I kept driving around town all last week waiting for chunks of hot satellite to bonk me on the head, or to get rained on with some nuclear-atomic carcinogenic-chemical Death-Plus satellite-juice or whatever that "hydrazine" shit was inside the thing that made it so Bad.
