The future ain't what it used to be

Once upon a time there was a blog called Future Vintage. Since its birth in the summer of 2009 it was spreading joy and good time among the numerous crowd of its readers... until it was crashed and smashed by an evil giant called Gugol. Even though Future Vintage did little or no harm to Gugol and his equally evil brethren, the sniffers, one sunny morning it was no more. The saddenned readers were looking here, there and everywhere, but all they have found was an empty screen where Future Vintage used to be. They went to ask Gugol but he claimed there never was such place as Future Vintage. Gugol was so evil that he had killed not only the blog, but attempted to erase any sign of its father, 70's Baby Early 80's Child.

Several weeks later the joy and good time returned - the Future Vintage was back again. Happy were the readers until they realized there was something different, something odd about this new blog. To trick and befool the vigilant and watchful Gugol, the Future Vintage was not as friendly and open as it used to be. Remembering how incredibly laborious was to raise from the dead, the reborn Future Vintage now had to choose new friends cautiously lest he let the sniffers in and let them wreak havoc again. Where there was wide open gate once, a tiny door was left for the readers to get inside. But that was not enough - every reader had to pass the test to prove his good will and commitment.

Not many of the 500.000 readers were willing or able to pass that test, but once they did, a whole new world opened in front of them. The new Future Vintage was now safer and better for that brave bunch. There were new posts showing up every couple of days, the links were appearing in their email miraculously and did not expire or vanish anymore. Since the sniffers were not able to find anything to report to Gugol, the blog was safe, and everyone was downloading and enjoying the music happily ever after. The end.

Yes, Future Vintage is finally back but it's not what it used to be. As you see, major changes have been made. The powers that be forced me to abandon the open house scheme and turn the Future Vintage into an exclusive club. For obvious reasons, there are no more links in the comments section. All you will find there is a documents that will give you answers to all your FAQs.

Read it carefully and consider the pluses and minuses of my offer. It's no secret to me that a massive majority of the original fan base were here just because there was free music up for grabs. But I firmly believe that at least 1% of you readers are not just takers, otherwise I wouldn't burn my precious time in attempt to put Future Vintage back on track. With you on my side, I'm sure the fairytale would eventually come true.

Today happens to be my birthday and the Future Vintage relaunch is the best present I could give myself. As a little push for you, here comes my special b-day offer: Every new BASIC member will get the REGULAR membership benefits. PLUS all BASIC memberships start with The Remix According To Peshay post. The offer is valid until September 30th.

Stay tuned!
