doesn't matter where, its not like i take into consideration
where a group is from... but i generally find the music i
like comes from everywhere but mainly the UK.

ummm, Dozier, The Beatles are from England...

but, I go with Britain... goodness, most of my cds are fro
bands or artists from there... it just seems like all the
best music comes out of there... even the pop music is
better then the pop music over in North America...

Uk. Our hip hop isn't as good, but all other genres I like
have much better examples here than the USA in my opinion.

I'd hazard a guess that 95% of my records are by British
artists.

How can you say our hip hop isn't as good? Just how much UK
hip hop have you actually listened to?

Personally I listen to more British stuff than US in all
genre's, even when it comes to rap I am starting to listen
to more British stuff, mostly because I can relate to it
more.

...and what about Italian or Finnish electronic musicians?

The italian scene is growing like hell!

I like the Italian scene a lot, it seems to come and go in
cycles, but there is always a lot of quality coming out of
Italy.

there seems to be some confusion amongst some of you
american readers...

for your information, ONCE AND FOR ALL, the United Kingdom
(or Great Britain if you like) is made up of FOUR nations;
Northern Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England.

People from any of these places are correctly referred to as
BRITISH (not english - england is that little bit attached
to the right of wales and underneath scotland)

Correct- refering to British people as English is the same
as us collectively refering to Americans as Texans.

Loads actually- I went to see dozens of acts while I was in
Bristol last year. There are a few standout acts such as
Fingathing, Roots Manuva, Big Dada, Cold Cut, etc. but for
the most part (especially concerning rappers), the overall
standard isn't as high as the USA in my opinion.
