ok... i really have to disagree with this one... i think carl craig has broken a lot of boundries both with landcruising and more songs about food and revolutionary art. those albums and even the more accessible secret tapes of dr. eich have provoked years of thought in me. the music makes me think and feel and move and groove. if that is the purpose, it has been acheived with me . what exactly is your 'cause'?
and for how long do you have to dwell on the old masters before the new masters can receive credit for their own work? if you continually throw back to the originators, you are never moving forward. we all know how great juan's contribution has been. i don't think that means that no one who has been influenced by him can be called an innovator. i am not sure what your 'cause' is, but to me it definitely seems contrary to moving toward a positive musical future. peace, h mee-thod <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ialix.com> cc: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: [313] Let's Talk Techno 09/16/00 12:51 AM On Fri, 15 Sep 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > And yes, I do know Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson, > Black Dog, and some others are not on here, and I think Ok, your time starts now :) I'd really like to know how you can contemplate omitting Juan Atkins from your list. I don't think people like Carl Craig, Theo Parrish, or KDJ would get the props for innovation without Juan Atkins laying the foundation. And he's still doing it. In fact, I was talking abut this the other day. And it was decided that as marvellous as Carl Craig is , his music is not truly innovative. That's if we decide innovative is music that breaks boundaires, provokes thought and advances the 'cause'. :) emma mee-thod -it's in the way that you groove it- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
