This whole story just sums up how much worse the scene is now than it was even five years ago.

"This is largely how I consume new dance music – not in a warehouse in Manchester nor a club in Berlin, but in a nondescript building at the University of Toronto, drinking coffee in front of a Macbook, head-nodding in silence. "

Welp, that doesn't sound fucking depressing at all.

As always, its nice to be able to scream your head off and grovve/thrash around to a song that you love and travelled so far to find you.

very interesting.

this does make the track bigger than itself, but i'm wondering if that even matters. obviously it excites people most in the real world and not on the internet. i feel an anticipation to experience it in the real world, i understand that witnessing it on the boiler room youtube channel is not "real" ~ so it's still a sincere celebration. i'd just be worried about getting stuck in some situation where i am expected to replicate the internet experience in the real world.

Waiting for a 3-star RA review of the track.

I honestly don't care about the track. Sounds like one big joke to me. Almost as if Four Tet fell off his bed while making a loop and thought to himself erroneously that he did a wonderful job.

That's pointless, I just hope they copy and paste the original text that stemmed this post as it is of far superior quality than most of the reviews I've been reading here as of late.

Distracted driving has become one amongst the foremost common causes of automobile accidents within the United States. Distracted driving could be a serious and dangerous activity, and could be a contributing factor in more than one million car crashes within the u. s. each year that cause injuries and death.
