Mary Anne Hobbs is not without her critics. There are those who imagine that she must be a dilettante, a bandwagon jumper, having come from indie and rock journalism via the Radio 1 rock show (where, incidentally, she would cover some truly extreme metal) to a show dedicated to leftfield electronic music

Rob Gordon is the man who made Britain’s arse shake. He is the man who put the bass into bleep’n’bass – the Yorkshire sound circa 1989-1991 which was in turn the direct precursor of hardcore, jungle and so much of the most vital British music that has come since.
I’m Joe Muggs. I am a music writer and reviewer.
The purpose of this site is self indulgence. That is to say, it is dedicated to things and people that have played a big part in my life – and it is also an excuse to sit down with some of the people I admire most and get down to some serious talk about why they do what they do.
