-LOL
see you there matt!!
actually i wanted to reply to JT but that was last week and i didnt want to
open what appeared to be a dead thread, but now since kent gone and
resuscitated it i think i will......
first of all i totally disagree with the "sub-sub genre" thing.....for me
the only real discriminator for music is whether i like it or not. its
either good or bad. period.
JT was talking about how a 2 hour set of non.stop minimal clicky house
(whatever, call it what you want) would be boring.....well, i agree! a 2
hour set of non.stop whatever would be boring, be it pure 313 techno or pure
Chi.house!! that to me is called a crap dj, whether i like the music he
"represents" or not.
So it's either good or bad music and it's either good or bad djing.
Genres and pidgeholing are created by the press and spin doctors, as we have
often stated on this list.
i also find it quite amusing (i often find hypocrisy amusing) that Daniel
Bell gets the thumbs up while Richie Hawtin or "trendy minimalists" get
totally shatted on. Where is the line folks? Why isn't Daniel Bell called a
(gasp!) "trendy minimalist"? Have you heard his sets? there more german
stuff on there than there is on the Kompakt distribution list!
Have most of you even heard a set by Villalobos or Zip? There's more detroit
stuff in there than i have heard at a derrick may gig and i'm talking out of
personal experience.
And last thing, where the hell do you think most of these "trendy
minimalists" got their insipiration from? Yes that's right, Detroit and
Chicago!!
Ok, sorry for the rant, but the elitist attitude really gets under my skin
and im tired of reading total BS. And please, do not consider me a champion
of the "trendy minimalist" sound. I would find that somewhat limiting and
insulting.
I hate it when the "deadhead-factor" rears its ugly head on this list.
(personal jab: Tom, i bet you would still complain even if they had Theo,
Kenny, Carl Craig and Norm Tally playing for 48hrs non.stop)
fab.

Subject: Re: (313) complaining about the fuse-in line-up
am i the only one who would actually love to see a good chunk of the
people in the lineup?
i feel like i don't follow the correct sub sub genre of music for this
list anymore.
