Various Artists


I hope somebody from the dance music industry is listening. Please and pretty please would it be okay to temper down your fascination for

Various Artists

Let's look at my reference guide for all music charts ... yes the BBC charts list of course I selected the dance tab (as I do every day) and I've calculated the following statistic for the top 40

16 Various Artist Albums
9 Classic but totally ancient albums (e.g. Prodigy Experience)
14 Moderately New albums (e.g. Deadmau5 - Random Album Title)

1 deliciously new album (Prodigy - Invaders must die)

So BBC or perhaps Dance Music record buying public: If you want quality remixed multi-artist dance music try listening free to podcasts like GrooveElectric instead and leave the charts for Branded and not Various Artists - please!
