Funky in the Uni Rave, ACS era. Maybe not as commercially popular but the impact is there.
@CAdofo wrote a great chapter about in his book.

Too broken to fix but too functional to be in pieces.
I loved this anthology collected by @iggyldn. I was particularly touched by @CAdofo piece on Kele. I see this image of him everyday I go to campus. I’ve heard Bloc Party for years. A new way to see London for me as foreigner.
