hey, Ive got to second this. I am glad that I was not the only one who found it offensive that Derrick and Omar got a lukewarm reaction for DJ'ing, and an utterly confused look for the poetry(which basically nailed everything that is wrong with American society in 5 minutes) while Rich shows up with a 909 and a compressor and the crowd goes apeshit.
Not to hate on Rich, but Derrick May deserved alot more love from that crowd than he got. He was playing those great afro-cuban jazz records by the end, just so lush and deep. Hawtin was alright, it was cool to hear Vaporspace and Lyot on a system, but he was not coming with soul like Derrick May. I guess we are just getting old Phred. Still, the cool thing about being old is we can talk about Genesis PO and reference him outside of being "that guy for modulations who invented acidhouse" :) (inside DEMF joke) Take care, Mike NP Model 500 : Ocean to Ocean [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Yeah, it was hard to hear Omar Bin Hassan over the teenyboppers around > me screaming "Richie!
