  1. In my lowest moments, music has always kept me going. I would ever go as far as to say that it has helped me though every single bad moment in my life! :)

    One of things that fascinates me is how a specific track will trigger a memory. I once won on the horses and came back and fell asleep to Revelation - King of Clubs in my headphones. Now, years later, whenever I hear that track, it take me straight back to that time of that horse win, and I love that.

    Music is so powerful. Let it help you - for it is the medicine of the mind. :)

  2. I like Roy too. He is at that perfect age where he commands respect with all his experience, and doesn't strike me as a panicker; rather, measured and collected.

    Losing in the QFs is probably about right for England at this stage. If they make the Semis of the World Cup now that would be a great effort. Just need to work on retaining the ball better.

    Rooney clearly wasn't fit and I would have picked Defoe ahead of him yesterday.

  3. Good points by milkybar above.

    It was a difficult time for DJs - I remember the fierce CD vs Vinyl debate and Jules pounced early on the CDJs, although I don't think his tracks changed too much in 2002 as he would still have been sent some vinyl through the post. I know this because he used to rip a lot of vinyl for his sets.

    But you are right that something changed. I'm not sure he always had a "filterer" because he used to pride himself in taking 2 whole days to sift through all the vinyl.... but I think with the volume of mp3s coming in it became impossible to continue that - although I would hasten to add that the explosion in digital choice did dilute the quality available for other DJs too.

    As a beast, DJs have to be flexible and Jules has certainly been willing to do that over the last 25 years. Whilst we're all here bemoaning his abandonment of his 1998-2001 sounds, I know that those who loved his early 1990s House sets were also up in arms when Jules jumped fully on the Trance wagon in late 90s... :) It depends on what you experienced at the time.
