My 2 hour interview with Spin was edited down to these 2 crappy quotes. This article is not really a great representation of the Hardcore scene, but it was in Spin, so I put it in here anyway. They totally mangled my quotes out of context. -sigh- ...Buda
SPIN MAGAZINE August 1999 Volume 15 / Number 8
After years of intellectual electronica artists preaching “good vibes” and fans talking about “unity,” some ravers are acting their age: Despite their Elmo backpacks, they, too, want to get stoopid and wreck things. Full of slam-dancing, satanic imagery, and the occasional tear-gas attack, hardcore techno parties like H-Bomb, Los Angeles area’s Twilight, and Milwaukee’s Afternoon Delight look like ass-up inversions of the utopian club-kid credo of P.L.U.R. (Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect). Instead of emitting cool, the linebacker-shaped moshers and candy ravers who inhabit the scene embrace wretchedness in rituals that recall the moshing of straight-edge punk shows, the headbanging at speed-metal concerts, and the gloomy Lugosi boogie of a good Nitzer Ebb gig. “Most of the places where this music happens sort of suck,” says Deadly Buda, a hardcore DJ, producer, and zine editor in Boulder, Colorado, with a laugh. “Usually there’s glass on the floors.”
