Damn, that show sounds dope! You guys are lucky over there. I can't imagine seeing anything that in depth on American TV these days. The closest thing I've seen to something like that was a program on PBS one time a few years ago. It was a documentary, that I think was of Canadian origin anyway, about Hip-Hop and Electronic music. In addition to De La and Grandmaster Flash, they had a brief segment with Derrick May talking about the Detroit sound. Anyone ever see that? (I apologize if this has already been discussed to death on this list)
-J > Just watching tonights episode, pretty mad. > > Hearing Joey Beltram talk about how he couldn't understand how he got labeled as a techno producer after making Energy Flash and that to him it was just a house tune. I think it really says a lot for the New York sound of the time. When I interviewed Frankie Bones he said that none of the music from Detroit really began to filter into NY until the early 90s and that all the early Nu Groove stuff that they all did really was concieved in isolation from techno. > > I have to say, its a pretty good programme and has been telling it pretty much how it was, even if Derrick May did slate England for labelling music too much :) > > Stewart > > > _________________________________________________________ ______________ > Never pay another Internet phone bill! > Freeserve AnyTime, for all the Internet access you want, day and night, only £12.99 per month. > Sign-up at http://www.freeserve.com/time/anytime > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------- This message was sent via the BiznessOnline.com webmail system. http://www.biznessonline.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
