Well I am sorry but I disagree and as I have just got in the last few minutes I am upset to see a post like this having experienced the D for the first time...
I thought Jeff was wicked, ok he train wrecked so bloody what?? crickey he had a packed schedule this weekend but who else would you hear play The Message, a Rush track, kings of tomorrow, the Wizard of Oz etc etc in the same set? and as fast as he did? "at one point he started playing hip hop not even mixing tracks, just cutting back and forth to new tracks." I think you weren't listening hard cos most were double copies plus he was giving everyone a taste of everything, could you do better? the Wizard was true in Wizard style and we tasted what most listened too all those years ago, so I am very happy. It just grates me that most listen to the mistakes and not what he actually played really well. So me it was a wicked ending to a superb time in the D...So Thanks Dennis and Madga for your superb hopsitality, I will repay the favour one day )))) Other people you know who you are but a post will come later as I am off to bed to re-inact it all :) -----Original Message----- From: Jim Bishop [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 May 2003 03:59 To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: (313) Jeff mills and richie at movement I will say it cause many of you are thinking it. He sucked....seen mills 4 times and this was the worst. Gains always up to high, he trainwrecked numerous times, his own records even. Played the same damn techno tracks he always does (buy the liquid room disc and you heard the same set), at one point he started playing hip hop not even mixing tracks, just cutting back and forth to new tracks. Mills had a few good spots, started to get great on the 909 then he stopped completely bowed and played rap. I enjoy good hip hop tracks like he played but he didn¹t even mix them. Many of you could have done just as good. Richie played the same stuff he always does. Snare rolls and high hats. Must say I think he is getting worse. Seen him 30 times now and most recently the last two times I have seen him his mixing has been terrible. What happened to richie the perfectionist now he always looks messed up. they must have took a thousand pictures that night of him posing for the camera, get of your horse rich and get back to innovating like you used to. I have never heard so many complaints at a richie show, MAGDA kicked his arse that for sure. What happened to the cutting edge things we are used to? Overall the festival was great, but the big boys didn¹t hold it up that¹s for sure. Best parts: Thomas fehlman Akufen Speedy J Mathew Dear Flame away but I have talked to many of you over the weekend and I know what you think to. Don¹t you ever wonder why no one talks about a show when people ask how was the richie show and few answer, you know what happened. When someone is on this list is flooded with reviews in hours this time its seems to be quiet around here My .03 cents Flame Away but this is not a troll, longtime list member honest opinion --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
