Traci Lords broke electronica into the mainstream

[Paragon]

Poll question: Traci Lords broke electronica into the mainstream

Let me kiss it and make it better
After tonight, you will forget her

1. Robert Moog

Inventor of the synthesiser in 1960

:hippie:

[dave29]

2. Tangerine Dream

and Kraftwork.

Germany brought us electronica

[Paragon]

3. I said the MAINSTREAM

[TXlib]

4. Isn't she a porn star?

[Paragon]

6. Was

And with the help of the birth of VHS, probably broke porn into the mainstream, too (Deep Throat was limited to theaters in bigger cities when it came out).

She's a "regular" actress now, and recently penned her autobiography.

15. She wasn't in that flick n/t

Also, none of the stuff she was in is on VHS because she was proved to be underage for her entire career in adult films. It'd be illegal to have it.

[Paragon]

16. Duh

It's illegal now - before it was pulled, she was legend.

[khashka]

19. She's still a legend

in my own mind :)

Khash.

[frylock]

5. chemical brothers - block rockin beats

[Paragon]

8. Maybe for the MTV crowd

Curiousity about Traci got it into the record stores and clubs first.

7. I'm not even gonna START

on the many, many things wrong with this thread...:scared:

Just wanted to say that was one HELL of a scare that X gave Duke last night, and had Myles not fouled out so early (:grr:) I daresay there would have likely been and entirely different outcome. :hi:

[Paragon]

9. X wuz robbed

And I don't think there's anything wrong with this thread.

10. Traci Lords is a fucking genius.

Literally. She is a genius at fucking.

[sendero]

12. Well....

.... she apparently got an early start :)

[DS1]

14. Yeah, 26 movies later the whole industry was fucked

:evilgrin:

[bigwillq]

11. I think NOT!

But can't tell you who did. Anyone know?

[0rganism]

13. When does electronica become mainstream?

Jeez. I can probably find a half-dozen FM stations in any given radio market playing the same crappy "classic" and RIAA-approved "alternative" rock, but I have to tune in to some obscure community or college radio station after midnight to find decent trance or industrial.

[gyopsy]

17. It's mainstream and yet it's not

Very unusual setup. Almost everyone at my university listens to electronica music and raves but at the same time you're right: they're aren't any radio stations that play the music.

It's very odd. I don't get it either.

18. FALSE FALSE FALSE

And I even have that Traci Lords album!
