Well in Joe's defence I'd say a hefty proportion of the stuff on the
list isn't directly about Detroit these days- Robert Henke's music is
certainly a hell of a lot closer (in my mind) to the "spirit" of
adventurous electronic music that Detroit helped to foster/inspire-
there's a shed load of Detroit releases which have been out recently
which haven't even raised a single comment on the list so a wee
conversation about Monolake doesn't seem to out of place in the meantime

And I thought tommmm was a hater :). Plus, aren't you the one always
whining about how if it's not on topic it shouldn't be here? Let's see
monolake? Max/msp? Doesn't sound Detroit to me...Dumba$$...
On another note. And maybe barely more topical.
BETH ORTON: The British singer-songwriter combines a traditional

Now I'm not too familiar with beth orton's voice except in passing,
but
has she been doing the folk over electronica thing for long? Anyone
hear
anything about this show? Anyone going? I'm really interested in this
kind of thing as I'm currently doing some collabo work with someone
along the same lines. Anyone here have any recommendations for this
type
of thing if not exactly beth-Orton-goes-electro? Thanks.
