URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT
It is with regret that I have to announce that the WHITE_LINE review site is going to wind down as of the end of March. It is a decision that I have not taken lightly, as the last three years have seen the popularity of the site growing steadily, with hit stats currently exceeding 300 hits per week. However, in order for me to successfully continue with WHITE_LINE EDITIONS, and my own recording projects, Level and FOURM, it has been neccessary to jettison the review activities in order for me to focus on the recording projects.Over the last year particularly, the amount of material coming in has greatly exceeded my abilities to do justice to the fruits of your creativity. I also feel that my reviews have suffered in quality as a result of trying to keep up with the many CD’s that come my way, and that I cannot physically give releases a fair listen, and therefore a fair and accurate review. PLEASE NOTE: Any material reaching me AFTER March 29th is not guaranteed to get a review on WHITE_LINE, but worthy material may get a mention until the site closes.
On the flip side of that news, I have just agreed to do some writing and occasional reviews on an ad hoc basis for the wonderful TOKAFI online magazine [www.tokafi.com], where I will be writing and commenting on releases, with my continuing passion for all things minimal. This will be something that I hope to do on a regular, or semi-regular basis, and I still look forward to hearing news and interesting releases from the labels that WHITE_LINE has worked with, so please do keep the CD’s coming, but don’t expect reviews, as I wish to start writing features and essays relating to the scene, it’s labels and personalities
.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support and enthusiastic responses to my reviews, and I hope that we can continue to work together to help the electronic/minimalist scene survive and thrive.
