A Regal Conversation with The Queen of House!

Bittles‘ Magazine | Interview with Screamin’ Rachael Rachael Cain, or Screamin’ Rachael as she is better known, is a bit of a legend in the house music scene. Labelled the »Queen of House« by those illustrious people at Billboard magazine, the name has stuck since it seems quite apt. Over the years Rachael has had a string of releases and been heavily involved with the legendary Trax Records. She has also invented her own musical genre (hip-house) together with Africa Bambaataa, and released some of the most sleazy, euphoric and downright funky music to be found. By JOHN BITTLES

Adore Life, Cause Life Adores You

Music | Bittles’ Magazine: The music column from the end of the world: January/February New Albums Reviewed. Music doesn’t change over time! The only variable that exists between music and the listener is you. The number of people I know who exclaim »Music isn’t as good as it was in the 70s, 80s, 90s«, etc is depressing. Somewhere down the line people will be saying the same about the noughties and now. But the thing is, we don’t listen to music in the same way as we get older. By JOHN BITTLES
