Dunno, I think it's a bit of an attitude-thing, in similar vein as Jeff Mills doesn't play that much in Detroit. And the music scene in Helsinki, where Mr Delay currently resides, is focused on hardhouse, trance and other fast, uplifting and ravedly rave stuff, which IMO differs quite a lot from the music he's producing.
Music scene?? That´s the kiddie rave scene. There are also nice deep house, garage and more downtempo oriented clubs in Helsinki. Unfortunately techno seems to fall somewhere inbetween. There´s occasionally interesting events though, last month´s Turbo with Tikiman and Scion was pretty excellent.
Sorry ´bout getting a bit OT, just had to defend my hometown a little.
Also, there was recently an attempt to book him to play in Oulu which didn't happen, but we got Daniel Bell instead so I'm not complaining. :)
Not bad... Ville _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
