Theresa Hill, to my knowledge, is one of the most significant radio personalities on the air in Detroit as far as supporting house and techno. Though the most important issue (the corporate jacking of local media) is not touched below, I think it is still important to support the heads when we can.
peace lks p.s. i wasn't able to make the demf this year for a number of reasons. but i've been thinking about the politics and economics of techno as it relates to detroit. i'll write something longer later. maybe MUCH later. >Subject: Support for Theresa Hill of 90.9FM >Date: Sun, 20 Jun 2004 20:11:07 EDT > >Everyone, > >It saddens me to write this E Mail. >I know that you love and support 90.9FM WDTR >as much as we the producers love providing you with >great music the whole family can listen to. > >It appears as of July 1st, 90.9 WDTR will no longer >exists as you know it.
