Who TF is Lenny Dee?
Lenny Dee (or "D") was (is?) a D.J. who used to be quite big on the "Happy Hardcore" scene (which was HUGE in Scotland in the mid-90s). You used to be able to get loads of mix tapes of his from dodgy dance music shops (the same shops that are now, presumably, selling skatepunk bootlegs). By that time (1994) he tastes were all 200 bpm and "I'm getting high/ In the sky/ Let me fly/ Into your eye" lyrics (no, not Oasis). Oh, and he is not in any way related to Wanda Dee, Liasons D, Tenacious D, or even Dundee. His last name was probably "Dick" or something, and he changed it. John PS - Is "Space" unlistenable? I've never thought so - although the first five minutes can cause twitching, if not in the right mood. I also know people who love "Chill Out" and can't stand "Space" - too much like Tangerine Dream, apparently.
I have to say that I'm one of the latter I'm afraid. I've got Space on LP but have only listened to it a few times, while my German "Chill Out" CD is getting so thin I'm seriously considering running off a couple of CD-Rs... It's not that I don't like "Space", it's just a bit too raw for my liking. While you can forgive "Chill Out" for the couple of badly-disguised cuts, I find I can't drift away with "Space" as I'm always on edge waiting for the next unexpected jump. Maybe I'm too young for Tangerine Dream? <g>
