Re: Love vs. Hate or New Rave vs. Old Rave.
the funniest thing about nu-rave was it was a pisstake of klaxons fans taking glowsticks to their gigs, then the nme got bored one day looking for a pigeonhole in an attempt to fabricate a scene which didn't exist in order to sell more mags

Re: Love vs. Hate or New Rave vs. Old Rave.
sorry guys, i thought it was a given that nu-rave was complete BS so i didnt even adress it.

obviously seeing "bloc party" and "nu rave" in the same boat only compounds the absurdity.

the best light any of this could be seen in is the matter of appropriation. to some people, rave was so long ago that it may have seemed okay to just take it and apply it to something completely different in the tradition of giving a new definition to "old" terms, but it's just a little to really too recent for that shit to make ANY sense.

Re: Love vs. Hate or New Rave vs. Old Rave.
here's my question: Would your reaction to disc 2 be different if it were called "Pop Dance" or "Indie-Dance" or something besides the dreadful Nu-Rave?

nope its the fact that its being coupled with 'old' rave in some kind of comparisson... they are not similar at all...

its not really even the name - call it 'shit pop' for all i care its just not in anyway whatsoever related to what rave of the early 1990's was...

you might as well make a compilation entitled classical vs electronica, with Beethoven, Mozart, et al. on disc one and orbital, underworld et al., on disc two... its just intrumentational music after all...

its a crap cheesey cash in that isn't even worthy for either the old rave or 'nu-rave' fans...

well - I could honestly give a care one way or another about "nu rave"

but I will say that at least nine tracks on the second disc are quite good...

Re: Love vs. Hate or New Rave vs. Old Rave.
yeah joe, i agree. i can't really make my point properly but you're on the right track. i guess it's the pairing of the 2 and the horrible genre name that is the immediate turn off on this mix. disc 2 is full of great music regardless of what it's called. it's just poppy dance music that is acceptable for both dance fans and indie fans. it reminds me of the Creation Dance comp from 90 or 91 in that respect.
