The view from the windmill

From the Border Community Blog - what we are up to and what we are into, straight from the Border Community's mouth.

Our fans are nothing if they aren't dedicated, and at times I am truly amazed at the level of devotion to this cult of Border Community that we have unintentionally created.

Take Facebook for example: back in 2006, an eager fan stepped in to fill the void left by the lack of our own Facebook group and set up this fan-run Border Community group, which to date has amassed over 4700 members, entirely of its own accord. So I thought that it really was about time that we publicly acknowledged its existence and made the affiliation a bit more official: on the off-chance that you haven't joined already, you are invited to do so here. Lets top the 5000 mark together!

The group may now have our endorsement and the accompanying overlooking admins from BC HQ, but I would like to assure any concerned members that we want this to remain a fan-run group, created by the fans, for the fans. We might use the wall to pass on the odd newsworthy item (releases, parties, videos, mixes - the kind of goodness that everyone likes), but other than be sure that it remains your group, to carry on, as you were. Only now there may be yet more members in tow...

You've always had my support, even though there can be VERY long between updates (here or anywhere) that has to do with stuff that isn't UK live performances/gigs etc. (I live in Denmark). I have absolutely no clue about what James are doing (if he's doing anything at all?) - his homepage is never updated and stuff like charts, dj-sets and other inspiring stuff is practically impossible to find anywhere. Really frustrating, as James' music and (usually) the stuff he's inspired by is insiring me a lot as an artist. Anyway, I'm definitely a follower.
Here's another fan site of your fan-worthy label hehe :-)

Have a nice sunday, or a nice whatever-day-you-would-be-reading-this!

CHEERS!
5000 is a large brigade of geek beaters considering the bc started out as just a fire team. looking back, shit was volatile in the beginning. much like the formation of a planet, raids on the goo (global underground) or 4four were akin to pumping oxygen into a molten cauldron of scene. sparks flew. smoke cleared. grass started to grow and facebooks were created in honor of that which just said no to the status quo.
Thomas, be inspired by the moment he performes. Enough inspiration for at least a couple of weeks! That means, if you want to keep being inspired, you have to travel the world.. sounds good :)
