electric relaxation

I just finished this excellent book recommended to me by my friend/co-worker/officemate, Matt. It’s a thoroughly researched chronicle of the history of the DJ throughout the 20th century. I thought there wasn’t much more that I could learn about the history of hip-hop, and that there wasn’t much I would care to learn about the history of disco and house music; the book thoroughly debunked both of these misconceptions.

My reading experience was significantly enhanced by means of a browser with tabs opened to YouTube and Wikipedia. Aside: if the sound quality on YouTube were better and they had queueing/playlists and the ability to populate an iPod, I’d never have to run iTunes - the selection is amazingly vast.
