The floor is moving with Shawn Reynaldo
🕑 Added 2023-06-27 09:08:23 +0000 UTCOver the past two decades Shawn Reynaldo has operated in every corner of electronic music. His substack "First Floor", recently anthologized into his debut book, offers a refreshingly candid account of his feelings about the turbulent state of a culture in transition.
We dive into some of the choice essays from his book, reflect on some major shifts of the last decade, and attempt a COVID post mortem.

Had this one on my list but then got tipped off to a reference to my article! I must submit a correction - the version of Cotton Eye Joe played at berghain by Marie malarie WAS a remix, not the original, the refrain is played just once after a long house build. There were several other points from Shawn that I would argue with on a subjective level, but that one is a straight fact check ;)
