It was actually this interest in letting people access different kinds of quality, non-mainstream music that led me to be a DJ for a few years around the turn of the century.



Hi Retro,

Being a DJ must have been a lot of fun !

Metta,

Aloka :)

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)

'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo

A bit of variation here from the predominantly indie and synth stylings of much of the countdown... it's my favourite reggae singer, Johnny Clarke.

So far the list has been great..... but Morrissey and the Smiths did nothing for me. I always thought that they tried to be too much like Joy Division. Morrissey was too whiny for me. Great music so far though.
But if this neutral feeling that has arisen is conditioned by the body which is impermanent, compounded and dependently arisen, how could such a neutral feeling be permanent? - SN 36.7
