As far as I'm concerned Jockey Slut's just a bunch of pill-dropping freaks
who sometimes get lucky. Buy one of those mags and try not to spot ten
different articles or reviews that includes propaganda for a narcotic
preparate of some kind. They're just sad. And I don't give much for their
journalistst either (I don't think that I've read one single article
without letting out a sigh or two). Betcha Lance or Aaron S Gregory could
make a ten times better mag all by themselves.

Although I must admit that I buy it sometimes, just because there's nothing
better to pick up. Immerse is the shit but it doesn't really come out on a
regular basis.

BTW In the latest Jockey Slut they rank the 100 best "dance" compilations.
Coldcut's JDJ was on no 1. Artificial Intelligence nr.2 or 3. "We Are
Reasonable People" on 9 or something! Believe that. Well they don't know
what they're talking about. Again.

That's a pretty naive argument. As I up in the very north of north Sweden
could get ahold of a copy, I think you could expect one of the biggest
magazines that cover the genre to be able to as well. That's just not the
truth, ruth. Do you think they would've made a 4 page (or whatever) article
about Squarepusher after his Spymania discs? Nah.
