the final blurb..

With horrifyingly generic teen-pop acts blaring out from mtv day in and day out, it's a wonder more kids haven't turned to drugs to escape the awful racket. Sure, a fair amount of electronica is wordless wallpaper, but slip on Moby's soulful, cerebral Play, and you won't need any substances to get high. The music will take you there all by itself.

YES !!

For me it was always about the music. The drugs just enhance the fun :P

its mainstream but they are letting him deal with the music side of things, change it up.
John B interview will be in the next issue we will let you know. Soon to follow, Skool of Thought interview, Im gonna work on some articles with my boy, we are gonna show van city that 'raves' have changed.
