Re: (313) Re: On Topic: Movement
2005?
While Alex sleeps I'm posting like crazy... oh well I am really trying to
say on topic things.
I think Grovskopa is good too, I have some friends that are into that whole
circle of stuff, seems like the only good harder techno is coming from that
school of techno these days. Since the other stuff seems to have gotten
quite clubby and cheesy... Reeko is another that puts out pretty decent
tracks in that style, I think Martin Dust probably could inform us more on
records in this style.... maybe???
Also, on the harder tip, and 313 techno: when Regis came to Chicago, the
ATTACK PEOPLE from Detroit did a super hot hard techno live PA, I
definitely recommend checking them if anyone gets a chance.
I do think the list loses a certain flavor because Detroit peeps no longer
seem to participate. I'm considering hanging out on Detroitluv as a
substitute... Cus I really don't want to just talk ABOUT Detroit, I need
to stay up on what's going down there, as I live in Chicago which I
consider to be a sort of sister city. I'm hoping to take a trip to the D
over xmas too - anyone reading this from the D, it would be nice if you
could give me a holla holla.
And yeah, really CURIOUS about movement.

Heh. Actually, it's kinda funny - I had this proto-posting in
my head in response to the OT thread, and one of the things I
was going to mention was how *few* people in the Detroit metro area
were still on the list. (No more Rob Theakston, no more Bryan
Bickell - R.I.P., no more Steve Lammers, no more Dave Walker, ...)
Some of the others still here don't post anywhere near as often as
they used to (Jeff Klein, Dan Sicko, ...).
That's definitely colored things differently around here - part
of Detroit Techno Culture to me is the Culture part, and hearing
about goings-on in Detroit.
Mailing lists always have an ebb and flow to them, and are
defined by the characteristics of the posts of the members.
I can't really contribute to the list in terms of records
anymore, because I don't buy any records. (I do appreciate all
the references though, as I can find a few things on SoulSeek.)
A lot of stuff on this list is pretty obscure - I see artists
and labels fly by me a lot of the time that I've never even
heard of. (Garrett just turned me on to DJ Grovskopa, for
example - I'd never heard of him. Vaguely Surgeon/Regis-like
goodness - check http://www.psnz.net/grovskopa.com/mixes.html out.
I love it - just had never heard of it before.)
Part of what a mailing list does is act as a Commons -
if people post about that hot new 12" of Grybbnik by Mystipikl
but no one else has it, there won't be many responses, will there?
And the original poster will think "Sod it, no one wants to talk
about Mystipikl, I won't post anymore". Self-defeating, really ...
