Energy Flash: A Journey Through Rave Music and Dance Culture
by Simon Reynolds
Even when you don't like the music his descriptions are brilliant.
In fact...one of the issues with reading pop journalism in the Spotify age is that often music sounds better in words than in life. This is so true of the rave that Reynolds describes. But good on 'im for trying to describe the "feel" of the sound rather than always the words/songwriter biography.
I'm with him that songwriting credits need to change, Jagger Richards are credited with the Stones classics, but the song wouldn't be the song if not for each contribution: the drums, the studio sound. NOT just the lyrics/riff
