Today I nearly cried. I was up to my usual Sunday afternoon music pirating, typed in my favourite URL and this is what I saw:
Shock and horror swept over me. It's still sweeping now and I don't have a fucking dustpan. I was a slave to the blog http://electro-premium.blogspot.com for over a year, and now it's all over. My late nights of waiting for the 'free user, only 99seconds left' messages are gone. I could easily follow some of the other ones out there - I'm sure they have better design and more frequent posts, but seriously, the blogosphere is a watered down shithole when it comes to music. So much garbage out there I can barely keep up my sarcastic disco dance moves. And the gay hook lyrics that would make for great background on a TV show for babies? c'mon.
Electro Premium Choice was EPIC to say the least and I can EASILY credit all of my coolness to it's mysterious french webmaster. I hope and pray that somehow it will surface again to post more full albums and EPs. I really should have given them some money...

I'm really sad
I feel your pain. I had been following the Electro Premium Choice blog for over a year & was really turned on to some great music there. It was always such a cool & fun place to stop & visit & always so consistent in its impeccable taste in electronica. It will be missed. Au revoir, mon amour! <3
