Uhm.. no. "Punk" was used by people MAKING the music FIRST, especially in reference to EACH OTHER. So... no, it wasn't a media construct, my friend. Sorry. In fact, the first mass use of the term was by Ed Sanders, who used it to market a tour and to describe an album.
Unlike NuRave, which was created by media and is hardly ever used by the people making so-called NuRave, save ironically or with reluctant contempt.
You gotta know, but fact is that the style of music that is practiced by Punks Jump Up is commonly known as NuRave, whether they like this appellation or not... I mean there needs to be kind of signification for a certain kind of music, Disco Punk would maybe match for PJU, but definitely not for other bands with a more or less same style as PJU (for example TV On The Radio or Junior Boys)
Who gives a crap if it describes a certain style of music? If other people know what it is when you say it then the name has done it's job, pure to the scene or not
yeah I think so - is it taken from a song or was it made for the song and if its another song whats the name - I need to look up the lyrics its awesome =)

But NuRave is a media construct that no one takes seriously, least of all those bands supposedly associated with it. Disco Punk or Dance Punk.

New rave is indie kids thinking they've "rediscovered" the rave movement. Any other description is bullshit.

and man...this sounds like early Gang of Four so badly...especially the bass

derivative...but in the best way possible...
