on about "the difference" between digital and analogue
okay now you are all just winding me up .. to me it's all about the system .. aka . the sound system at the end of the day ' dance music is about the PA . the actual "speakers" that the sound is coming out of. Techno is about dance floor reinforcement, so if you are not thinking about the final product. ie: the sound system on the floor .,. then just forget it .. you could spend a thousand hours in the studio, but if you play in a club where the cross over is set wrong . then . its all a waste of time .. please, please, please .. if you make, or play dance floor music, you should be worrying about your FOH sound like a guitar player worries about the tuning of their guitar! if you really want to push the future, if you really want to push sound, to break the curve, set the dimension .... think about the sound system .. this is your instrument! imagine a chef that did not care what plates his food was served on .. imagine a painter who did not care to understand his canvas .. dance music, TECHNO is all about the sound, its about the physical presence of the sound waves .. so all the talk & mutter about computers means nothing to me .. if you do not understand the the fundamental basics of sound reinforcement .. what we are dealing with is the the presentation of sound through large sound systems .. thats what techno was built for! It's electronic sound .. which is the evolution of the electricity ... with out electricity .. we would not have modern sound systems . the speaker is your instrument .. like a guitar players instrument is the interaction of the strings with the body of the guitar .. with out a "speaker" we have no TECHNO ! the future of music ' is within the establishment of sound as a space Theo is onto the right tangent . the boy understands what is important, and has been trying to represent this through cut ups, mash downs and spatial social representation. if anyone is truly listening to TECHNO .. and following the relationship to space, dimension & cultural architecture, then you will begin to see sound as space, as dimensional communication. why the muck is everyone getting stuck inside the wires .. when everything about TECHNO is what is going on in real space, in the environments that surround us .. I am inspired by vision, by honesty .. I am moved by Artists who define reality, who decide what is important and use sound as a medium to realize their own truth. Stop messing around on the inside ' and start looking at sound around you. Forget about the internal, and look at what is happening in front of the speakers, look at what is important on the floor, in the dance. This is about communication, this is about presenting sound ideas. All I want to listen to is honesty. .simon
