ARDKORE



(ABOVE: The only two people in the world qualified to talk about the "Ardkore Continuum" - 80s Japanese sound artist PHEW and legendary electronic music boffin JON APPLETON, who once invented a Synclavier. I know, I know, reader, don't spit out your dummy- I haven't got a fucking clue what the 'Ardkore Continuum' is either. I suspect it's one of these things like 'the punk wars' or 'rockism' or the sodding 'NWW List' or the 'trancecore spaz index' that someone invents because they're 20,000 words short on their PhD with just two days to go, and they know their lecturers are just aching to get down with 'the kids' and pretend they're hip to the NEXT BIG MEME. But all the other hacks are furrowing their brows and having some sort of inter-blog symposium on it, and I don't want to be left out. Actually, I couldn't give a fuck - but, all the same, I emailed Appleton, the man behind the legendary Turnabout electronic compilations of the '60s and '70s - "Bleedin' seminal", MATT WOEBOT once described them, so he did, hugging his Guinness and sighing wistfully. Anyway, Appleton sent me the following bizarre equation to explain exactly how the 'Ardkore Continuum' was formed - make of it what you will:

[2unlimited] over [lambda]x[renegade soundwave] squared to the power of 12rpm - [4 hero] x [spiral tribe] over [jeff mills] x [shy fx] with square root of [mc hammer]= BLUBSTEP

Well, there you go, straight from the horse's mouth. Incidentally, you should check these blogs -
