I'm onto this lovely little number now
youtu.be/ldOLD3a_vroSaw Aeroplane the Saturday before last. I say saw, I mean I was in the same room that he was DJing in and remember none of it.

For some reason this stupid thing will play Baz's links, but not yours.
Your assertion yesterday about this iPad being a quender was "on the money"

You should consider yourself lucky then.
And EVERYONE would get an iPad if they could afford one, myself included. It's the only reason everyone doesn't have one.

Are they quite good then?
I thought they just looked nice.

They serve no actual purpose whatsoever.
Which is why most (again myself included) are hesitant to fork out five hundred quid for one. My cousin's got one, they're class for pissing about with on the sofa whilst watching tele. Also good when on train journeys or whatever. If half a grand wasn't a lot of money to you you'd get one without thinking.

I was looking at net books the other day for that very reason.
At less than £250 they looked quite useful, if not as pretty.

At that price you'd be lucky if they're still in one piece by the time you get them home.

In my experience of cheap laptops, they work OK for a few months, then they basically become crippled and struggle to run any software more demanding than Notepad without crashing, turning themselves off or being subject to massive hardware failures.
In the worst cases, they literally fall to bits.

They're pretty nifty actually
I'm by no means a computer geek and pledge no allegiance to either camp in the whole Apple/PC quarrel, but I do like it switching on instantly and being ready to use immediately. Some effort has gone into making it quite slick.

I know little about them
But I thought they had next to no storage, so unless you write something and then e-mail it, you'd lose it.

Nice work.
What about Dr Octagon? Late 90s project, Kool Keith from the Ultramagnetic MCs and Dan the Automator.
Look up Bear Witness and Earth People.

Did you go to that? The line up was right up your street.

It was an odd one for me
I was much more of an indie kid then and there was a lot of hip hop, which I struggled to relate to (inc Public Enemy, El-P) having no real reference points. There was lots of nice electronica, Aphex Twin's DJ set was amazing and Sunn o))) just confused me at first, but I later learned to love them.

It's unusual for someone from that period to have a "best album"
But there are usually pretty comprehensive collections available.

It's rare for me to recommend a Best Of... Album
But for someone like that you can often get nearly everything they've done on one compilation.

El-P was the first live hip hop I ever experienced
And though I kind of enjoyed it, like I said - I had no real reference points. I'm a white, English, middle-class indie kid.
Monoliths and Dimensions was one of my favourite albums of 2010. I saw them play with Om in Birmingham and it was amazing.
