WordAll #754 completed in 2m 01s (threw me a little because a word I thought was plural with an 's' was plural with 'es' and the 'y' adjective form isn't in the scrabble dictionary. A handy thing to know but threw me for 1m20s. Should have been an easy one)

Framed #760 (nope. I watched Masterchef (BBC One) and The Cleaner. ‡The choice of song is from 1992, from Crowborough*, a small, scenic, but also quite boring town in part of England called East Sussex. There is a bronze statue of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and a surprising number of notable people live or have lived there. The song represents the relative explosion of rave music in the early 1990s, most of which has been forgotten, because most of it was forgettable, or so voluminous it's hard to find the interesting stuff. In the late eighties onwards there was an explosion of DIY music in the UK driven by relatives cheap equipment and production available through things like cheap DX synthesizers, the MIDI capabilities of the Atari ST (the Amiga played a smaller role) and cheap DAT recorders. Notably kicked off, in part, by Orbital, KLF, and the musical importation of things that were happening globally with electronic music. And it was happening everywhere in the UK all at once. In 1994 a law was passed the UK effectively banning unlicensed parties. "Under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act of 1994, the definition of music played at a rave was given as: "music includes sounds wholly or predominantly characterised by the emission of a succession of repetitive beats". Sections 63, 64 & 65 of the Act targeted electronic dance music played at raves." So it's‡ an example of a track, local to me (although it was happening everywhere**), driving mostly by ordinary-ish young people. In 2007 the iPhone came out and everything changed. Widespread use of the Internet driven by social media, made easy by smartphones is the societal equivalent of cheap electronic music equipment and globally***. The internet was important before the smartphone. The smartphone turned it up and with a far broader audience. All of 'those people' existed before****. I haven't got time to check this for errors or typos. London (Hackney Hardcore and XL)/Manchester (numerous - but A Guy Called Gerald)/Glasgow (numerous) were as interesting or more interesting than everywhere else but for reasons of time I've avoided that.)
