"Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore" made me high






The Guardian about Mark Leckey's video work, Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore (1999): "Fragments of 'found' video footage from British nightclubs are spliced together, repeated and slowed down, while a perfectly edited collage of ambient sounds – snatches of rave tracks, crowd noise, men bellowing across provincial shopping precincts – filters in and out. There's a loose chronology – northern soul, soul weekenders, casuals, acid house – but the two defining themes of the film are timeless."
