Hello, I took my own advice, and started a gear mailing list dedicated to Detroit related electronic music. IF you would be interested in joining, click on this link:
http://www.egroups.com/group/tech-gear It is fun, it is easy, and if you want to talk about Rich Hawtin with a devilfish 303, or Dan Bell running up and down Gratiot Ave. with a fully loaded RZ-1, you can do that cuz it will be 100% on topic. If you want to talk about Lawrence Burden sweating behind a W-30 during a Octave One live set, you can do that too, it is all good. On what other list can you learn fun facts like the main board played during the Tikiman/CR DEMF set was a Prophet 5.
