“An attempt to figure out who the most important players and innovators are in the evolution of journalism — and to provide a centralized source for background, context, and the latest news about them.”

“If you face facts, vinyl still sounds a lot better than CD or digital. If you listen to a lot of modern music like dubstep many times on CD – a lot of the UK funky stuff, a lot of harsh, very bottom-heavy, very percussive, very dynamic music – it sounds quite brittle and two-dimensional. You cut the same thing on to vinyl and, when you listen to it in a club, the bass has real depth to it. It’s not like a flat wall of sound that’s beating you down, it’s almost like you can “get inside” the music a lot better. There is something magical about vinyl. I love the way music sounds on it. Part of the reason I love it is that I don’t quite know why it sounds that way. There’s alchemy to the process of putting sound on vinyl that engineers still don’t understand to this day, but somehow it works. I’ve been DJing and collecting music for about 25 years now, and it’s still my favourite way of listening to music.”
