By the way Tom, with what you said about Detroit "i mean if i wanted to hear drum and bass, id go to london. if i wanted to hear ubercoolische minimal, id go to berlin. if i wanted to hear bad club music, id go to any random club in the world. i wanna hear detroit music. thus, i should go to detroit."
shows how apparent it is that you grew up listening to only one aspect of the Detroit culture and that you very possibly have a limited knowledge of the full scope of Detroits music scene. I know of at least one Detroit DnB producer that is better than any London DnB I've ever heard. His names Ojibiwa, and he combines Motown and Jazz influences over the DnB. It's amazing. There's also amazing genres of Industrial by Blazaebla, minimal by N. Khotari, plus hundreds of hidden gems that have never gotten global coverage but are still a huge part of the culture... Stop trying to think that you know what Detroit should sound like. There's a lot more to the city than one type of sound. Thats what makes it Detroit. Pigeonholing it into one sound doesn't represent the city accurately. ________________________________ From: dbooker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wed 19/04/2006 17:14 To: 'fab.'; 'Thomas D.
