Mardy Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 Look at that photo. Look at the depths of despair in all of their eyes. Beaten. Defeated. Like a Labrador on a daytime telly RSPCA advert. How do you think yer man from the Levellers would have reacted to being called Britpop in 1994? That shows all you all you need to know about their integrity. A medium sized back of cash and he'll willingly sh*t on his past. There's only one way of life, and that's your mortgage company's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardy Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 I'm going to try and keep relatively restrained here on my views on the inherent classism in taking something life changing and beautiful and astounding and culturally vital, which those dance tracks were/are, and then playing them on 'proper' instruments in an attempt to give it some form of faux legitimacy and meaning. It is genuinely barbaric in the true sense of the word - It's absolutely artistically bankrupt and anti-creativity. I tell you had bad it is, and this is some f**king statement, but I'd rather listen to an hour of Liam Gallagher's witless bellowing than one minute of Hacienda classical. Now look what you've made me do there. I'm off to scrub my brain clean. Hope you're happy now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm entirely in their demographic too, which makes me push back against it even more, I think - and I tell you what, I bet those Hacienda Classical c**ts use words like 'demographic' in their marketing plan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 Enjoyed the original "Classical House" thingy - Pete Tong's shindig. But this Britpop thing looks turgid. Tong's choice of tracks (at least on the original one which I saw live) on his house vehicle was ace and the performances made people grin from ear to ear - me most of all. An' I don't smile that much innit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
