"This book is really awesome. It's contains the history of so many of the musical genre's we as ravers enjoy today, and some surprising facts about the birth of hip hop and disco too! It's a little slow at first, but I have to say this book changed my opinions on Disco, and mad me love hip hop and punk even more. A must read for any DJ wanna be, Raver who's been at it for more than the usual 6 months and really any other person who's even enjoyed a night on the dance floor losing themselves with a big grin on."
"This book is a must if you are at all interested in modern music and its roots. Packed with amazing facts and characters who shaped what we listen to and how we listen to it."
"actually i did start this book & was kind of getting into it before i stopped seeing the DJ & kind of lost interest. it's really well-written & rather fun & real. but i'm not gonna read it i'm pretty sure, not when i have piles of current-events books & history books & graphic novels & a paul auster book from the library."
