...answer these following questions:

1) some dodgy geezer invites you into his timemachine :
which year in music history would you want to revisit and
why?

2)Name 3 records from your country that you defenitely have
to play to yer fellow xltronicers. Why are they worth
talking about?

3)If you'd do a mix in a xltronic meeting party, which 10
tracks would defenitely be on there?

4)What is your current top 5?

5)What 10 albums will you always buy again, regardless of
whatever new recording format the music industry comes up
with?

thank you

If I could only visit one, it would be 1966. The years
preceding it, rock was blossoming, but I think this is the
first year where a lot of great artists really hit their
creative potential. A lot of high points, and it wasn't
quite the silly Summer of Love yet. Somehow, pictures always
look leaner and meaner when they're dated '66. I'd like to
get my kicks down that route.

2
Sloan- One Chord to Another- these guys are the modern day
Scruffs, Badfinger and Big Star all rolled into one. My
favorite rock group going today.
Blue Rodeo-Casino- I don't know how many people would enjoy
pansy country-tinged pop, but these guys are criminally
underrated. They're not edgy enough or underground enough to
get recognized for their superior songwriting.
Leonard Cohen- Songs of Love and Hate- as extreme as the
title implies. His son is very charming, I listened to an
interview of his the other day. Must check him out.

1) I'd bring a synth and some batteries and shit back to
year 1000 and I'd make todays music then and all the shit we
get today would be more innovative.

2) Side Brok - Høge Brelle. Norwegian hip-hop in dialect..
worth it even if you don't get it.
Kim Hiortøy - Hei. Electronic stuff.. nice!
Jaga Jazzist - A Livingroom hush. Jazz + electronica, man!

3) Definately something from Zeus, Scheme88, Horsefactory,
Archrival, Plaidzebra and all the others that I enjoy, but
whose names aren't currently stored in my too small memory.

4) RJD2 - Since we last spoke
Blackalicious - Nia
Wu-Tang - 36 chambers
Kim Hiortøy - Melke
Prefuse 73 - OWE

5) I don't need duplicates.
