A couple articles of interest

Happy new year to everyone, this is just a short post to give a heads up on a couple of interesting pieces that have cropped up online this week.

First up RA have just published an excellent interview with Chez Damier, one which I think many will appreciate for the honesty he shows, and how he’s not bothered too much with much of the myth building that went on in Detroit, amongst other topics. Read the rest here

Secondly, Kirk Degiorgio has posted an interesting piece on the state of play in electronic music as we enter a new decade. It’s a balanced and interesting take on how he sees the dance music world at the moment and is again open and honest. There is quite a bit in it, so I’ll just leave it to you peeps to read yerselves.

That’s all for now!
