    Simon reynolds must read story of rave, clubbing and dance music has been updated, well worth a read and a pretty good overview of how the scene started...perfect summer reading as well as pretty decent overview of who what why when and where, one for the beach in ibiza :p

    seconded! great book!

    although i hear the new chapters don't add too much and are a bit eccentrically chosen..

    a chapter on "microhouse" (remember that???) and nothing on grime?

    really odd considering he's one of the better writers on grime in the "blog-o-sphere" (i feeel dirty for using that word)

    ah well... as long as the tracklisting for it is in there then it shouldn't be too much of a chore to track them all down on youtube anyway...

    incidentally, the chapter on early 90's london pirate radio (which was left out of the USA edition) is available online - it's a really good read!

    i hear along the grapevine that someone's managed to coax you out of retirement for a one night comeback gig by the way - any truth in the matter?
