That's no reason not to remember great moments and what made them great, is it? Nostalgia's just part of the human experience.

It's never as good as it used to be. I think dubstep died about five years ago when it was first played on the radio, when it stopped being about being underground. I reckon the best dubstep tune was the first one ever written and everything since has just been getting worse and worse. blah, blah, blah. It was better when..? When you felt more important by just knowing about it. Now to feel important you need to known about before, when it when it was good and when nobody else knew. Get a grip. Nostaligia is for the dead and the insecure. Just shut up and dance. I think that’s the problem with music. It’s never as good as it used to be.

This new Tempa compilation <em>is</em> all of those records I was playing back then. Then again, if you got El-B, pierced his lip and strung a dog chain through it and led him through the streets, possibly with some black hair dye and maybe a t-shirt that said something like <a href="http://members.aol.com/Valdes379/EmoGame.html" rel="nofollow">The Get Up Scooter</a> you'd probably be feeling his lop-sided funkiness a whole lot more.
