During undergrad, i invested a big chunk of my time listening to D&B and electronic music. i’ve since fallen off the music scene (yes, i was there) and am a complete stranger to what’s going on now. Recently I discovered Rinse FM London (first station to play Fourtet, Burial, and Thom Yorke’s Ego/Mirror 12”) and was definitely turned back onto what’s going on in electronic music right now.
Electronic music has been hard to ignore, since the US has slowly been adopting that hard, futuristic electronic sound into production, especially main stream hip-hop. If you want to hear what American hip-hop is going to sound like in 2 years, listen to what’s been going on in London for decades.
