there are still a few of us African-American types working in dance
music...most of us are not caring about being 'accepted' by our brothers
and sisters who are in the mainstream. However, it's even harder to get
people on this very list to have a discussion about 313 or 313 related
music unless there is a bit of sensationalism involved, like mentioning
skrilldx.
I joined the list years ago because I hoped that I would find like
minded people here. and I have. But I really wish that there could be a
tad bit more interaction without mentioning richie, sonny, boyz, or
mnml...or for pete's sake...e d m.
The posts that I have seen that have generated the most response seem
to be along the lines of this one...and maybe I'm not posting enough
either...considering that I have many wonderful things going on at the
moment.
I am not admonishing anyone, just noticing a trend and speaking on
it...I'm going back to my room.
cheers,
