Instead of doing the editing I should be, I'm reading about 70s, 80s and 90s electronic music, particularly from Europe. One of the bands I came across was the Belgian New Beat band Confettis, who have this ridiculous and might I say, rather offensive, single, "C in China." wtf. Minus one for the Europeans. From working with a Dutch and an Eastern German all day every day, I'm beginning to get the impression that many of the movements and ideas that I feel are central to my personal belief system as an (Asian) American (feminist) etc. really didn't have much of an impact on the other side of the Atlantic.

(and keep up the good writing, i enjoy)
:) didn't know anybody was actually reading this--good to hear from you!
On behalf of the Europeans, I would like to apologize for this song. 1990s were kind of the dark ages for our understanding of China and its development.
