Tim is the man!!
He is the real player behind the scenes of D_MF 1 and 2, helped me with
my carreer many times.
Cheers to Tim Price and if you have a chance to go see him on the panel
do so, he is great.
Good post Rob!

Hi there.
Usually I don't post unless I'm being extremely sarcastic, cynical,
bitter
or all of the above. But for a refreshing change of pace, I'd like to
send
out this promotion.
While he's really not known to many around the world as a prominent
techno
figure, Tim Price has been the central nervous system of countless
important
events that have been thrown in Detroit, and was crucial to the
success of
the first D_MF. I'm sure if you've been around long enough in the scene
you've heard his name uttered once or twice, but Tim likes to stay in
the
background about things and just do what he does best: throw killer
events
and make a difference. He's a figurehead in the Detroit electronic
music
community, but like the best of them...he's rarely seen or heard.
He's worked with several record labels in the area. Plus 8, M_nus, KMS,
Planet E, and many others all have benefitted by Tim's hard work ethic,
unrivaled spirit and tireless dedication to the music scene. He's also
thrown events for a multitude of charitable causes; dedicating his
time and
efforts when he could be producing something that could turn him a
quick
profit. And on a more personal note, he's one of three people I
consider a
true mentor, and I'm sure a few other people on here can testify to his
influence.
Well, to sum this all up nicely... Tim is going to be participating in
a
panel workshop/lecture this Saturday in conjunction with the Detroit
Historical Museum's Techno exhibit. The topics will be a broad range of
things involving the record industry. I don't know much more specifics
than
this, but it's a good chance and a rare opportunity to see Tim talk
about
what he does best.
The Detroit Historical Museum is located in Detroit’s Cultural Center,
on
Woodward Avenue at Kirby, two blocks North of Warren.
