Re: (313) Actual Detroit techno

[wojciech]

Yep, his recent live/dj sets have been amazing by all accounts. 

He's also released a lesser known mini album, Niteroi, that was, and still 
might be available at the Axis web shop, bundled with a concept tshirt.  
Stylistically it's a nice blend between his more recent stuff and Every Dog Has 
His Day albums.

It's always great to hear that there are others on this list that

There's also a Japan-only Rob Hood 7" with a couple tracks that didn't make it 
onto the Nighttime World Vol. 3 album. 

Both sound jazzy and laid back, a la that limited Omega track he did years back

(313) Mills talking to the Detroit Free Press about his Wizard sets, influence of Motown, etc.

[wojciech]

...and Detroit peeps: he's playing at Necto in Ann Arbor this Sunday...

http://www.freep.com/article/20121011/ENT04/310110005

Producer and DJ Jeff Mills is celebrating the 20th anniversary of his
label Axis Records. The Detroit native first became prominent in the
mid-'80s, spinning now-legendary mixes as the Wizard on Detroit radio
station WJLB-FM (97.9). Then he became an international star in
electronic music circles by cofounding the Underground Resistance
techno collective and later starting Axis.

Now based in Chicago, Mills has become one of the world's most coveted
DJs and techno producers. Axis just released "Sequence: A
Retrospective of Axis Records," a 320-page photographic book complete
with a 30-track compilation on a USB card.

"It shows all the conceptual projects, design schemes, product and
merchandise and a lot of other information," Mills says. This weekend,
he'll revisit his roots and spin a Wizard set at the Necto in Ann
Arbor, where he used to be a resident DJ.

QUESTION: You used to spin at Necto (then known as Nectarine Ballroom)
three night a week in the late '80s. What are some of your memories
from those gigs?

ANSWER: There are many. Until then, I had managed many DJ residencies
in and around Detroit, but it wasn't until securing the Nectarine
Ballroom that I could really try new ideas and experiment with the
audience. With the help of my older brother Dennis, who oversaw the
production, I was able to incorporate various equipment setups and be
more conceptual with the music.

An important aspect was that I was positioned on the dance floor, in
and along with the people. I believe this made the relationship with
the audience much stronger. I remember rushing back from Detroit to
Ann Arbor, because I had to deliver my Wizard radio show to WJLB. I
remember routinely giving hand signals to the lighting engineer, Mad
Hatter, informing him how many minutes I wanted to play at the end of
the party. I remember things like certain people always dancing in the
same position for every party. I remember a Halloween party where I
dressed up as a prisoner and spun the whole night with handcuffs on.
We used to have a lot of fun.

Q: How much planning was required for Wizard sets?

A: There was a lot. Literally the entire day would be spent searching
the record shops and various places for music to play for the show
that evening. When the outlets in Detroit weren't enough, I would
drive to Chicago, Toronto and to other cities get new music.

At WDRQ 93 FM, in addition to my salary, I was given a music-spending
budget. This would allow me to find and grab anything I thought was
worthy of programming. I also had the rare ability to play anything I
wanted -- whenever. This way, there was not a pre-approval period,
which means, music was played on the radio as soon as possible.

All the shows at WDRQ were live. At WJLB, the first few years were
live, but the recording and music equipment technology was getting
better, which allowed me to create more complex shows and multi-track
mixes. With this, I could play more new music in a shorter time span.
Working with these recording machines gave me the idea to start making
the music earlier in the day and playing it live as if it were new
records that just came out.

Competitively, I was quite fierce. When new records would arrive at
record shops, I would go in and buy all the copies so that I would
have the only ones in the city.

Q: What defines a Wizard set for you?

A: A DJ set that encompasses various styles and forms of music. Not
always in a humorous or comical way, but with sincerity and passion.
Even though I was quite young then, I was old enough to know the power
of music. I was aware that if many people heard the right thing at the
right time, it could make a world's difference for the person who made
it.

A Wizard set for me is a DJ set that has the motive of enticing the
listener enough so that he or she would go out and buy the record.
While on the radio, I knew that I only had a small time frame to make
my point, so playing the entire song would have taken up too much
time. A way of quick mixing was something I developed. I would only
play the best parts of the song in order to convince the listener to
want to hear more. Most of the time, it worked.

Q: What elements or techniques have you added to your DJing style?

A: Ironically, I never lost my sense of what I'm doing. I still very
much believe that music is best served hot, so I go through much
effort to make this happen. My objective has not changed and I've
maintained the process, though it's more complex and involves a team
of people. I still hope to bring new things to the listener. ... I'm
still being paid to inform people of new music. For technique, I've
become wiser with my technical skill. I use hand speed and agility
only when it's called for -- not just doing it for the sake of showing
off or battling other DJs.

Technology can only take the DJ so far. It's helpful mater

There's a 4+ hour long mix floating around Soundcloud that proves the man still

Re: (313) New interviews

it's not a surprise to me, since he calls things as he sees them, and
that approach is bound to get at least a few negative responses from
the forum responses on ra.

that, and the forum-reading crowd always loves to pick a side (i'm for
digital-he's for vinyl!), instead of addressing valid--if directly

i didn't get a vinyl vs. digital vibe from his answers either.  more a

(313) New interviews

[wojciech]

-With Rick Wilhite:

"...The whole entertainment industry has created people that really
have no passion doing what we do, as a producer, as a remixer, as a
DJ. All these new websites and everything have totally annihilated the
industry. Nowadays anybody can just do overnight what took somebody
else ten years to really become sufficient enough or experienced
enough to do. The industry is in total shambles—from the pressing
plant to the mastering plant, the people that make the labels and the
jackets, to the actual artists themselves. All of that is totally gone
because most people don't believe music is worth more than a dollar.
If that."

http://www.residentadvisor.net/feature.aspx?1245


-With Jeff Mills:

"...In my generation we learned differently from the way most DJs are
learning now. Most of us came into DJing from being musicians, so when
we thought about tracks to play, we were thinking about song structure
– we had musical structure to refer to. I’m just trying to create a
much more balanced view of what DJing is all about."

Re: (313) Sound Signature white labels

thanks, frank.  i guess we're in the same boat - i saw SS 040 at
submerge for a steep price and decided to pass on it as well.

has anyone else seen these white labels with spraypainted coverwork
sold anywhere outside of submerge or melodies @ memories?

Then again, NYT was never known to be the well of ug electronic music
knowledge.  It's also refreshing to see the myth of detroit=lowbrow
rave culture, mutek=highbrow electronic music bastion perpetuated in
mainstream press.  /sarcasm

On a positive note, NYT did a decent piece on Model 500 live and the
Detroit history behind techno (iirc) not too long ago, for anyone that
cares to search for it.

Re: (313) Music advice (online)

[wojciech]

Many 313ers write off Mills for being either a has been or little more  
than a hard techno jock, while his more recent productions are a clear  
example that none of these categories are the case, not to mention his  
spectacular recent dj sets.


One Man Spaceship was an excellent album indeed, with moods ranging  
from abstract space jazz (on Final Night of Ambient Light) to near  
peaktime intensity on Life Timed Device, to the classical workout on  
The Great Chase, or the ambient Above the Waiting Worlds.  He keeps  
churning out good product with just about every new release.  Speaking  
of his new releases, have you heard The Sleeper Wakes?

Apparently a sole fan, I also really enjoyed Jeff Mills - One Man

me is the peak of
Jeff-Mills-as-crazy-ambient-non-techno-techno-producer, and the studio
work is breath-freaking-taking.

Dear 313,

So, I was looking for something interesting to listen to a few days  
ago and was

really stuck. I needed advice which is why I turn to you.

I was actually on the list many years ago (around 2002-05, I  
think), I do

recognize some names who are still here.

Anyway, since my departure I've swapped the rainy days in the UK  
for the

constant 30 degree heat of Singapore.
Unfortunately while the weather here is much better, the music  
scene... well,

there is no (good) music scene. It's really very depressing.

I realized the best way for me to locate some good music was to  
come back here

and ask the friendly people of 313.

I've been downloading the bleep podcasts, which are great. I've got  
a few beats

in space ones also.
Any important albums from the past 5 years I might have missed :)

I haven't been digging much of Stewart's Walker's recent stuff, but he
has put out some killer records back in the day.  It should be
interesting to catch his live show, as the last one I've seen about 5
years ago was excellent, in spite of the venue and sound sucking (old
RX gallery in SF).

Re: (313) new release - Endless Days ep feat DJ 3000 remix

[wojciech kawalek]

speaking of frank, he has a new twelve on motech which is a
collaboration between him and esteban adame from ican productions  the
record isn't half bad in the least.

(313) discogs?

[Wojciech]

Has anyone else had trouble accessing discogs in the last couple of 
days?

Re: (313) Hello 313, I am....

[Wojciech]

name:  Wojtek K. (pronounced Voy-tec)

age: 28

I live in: (now) san fran  (before) sterling heights, MI

I was born in: Poland

Into Detroit since:  about 1999, thanks to a friend who was parting 
with his vinyl and was kind enough to pass on to me such gems as the 
first frictional record, some UR and a Jeff Mills record, that together 
with a trip to a record store some time before then and picking up a 
copy of Phylyps trak2 and I was hooked


Into electronic music since:   the early to mid-80's, hearing Italo and 
other synth music on the radio while at preschool (in Poland)


Starting point on the techno map: Basic Channel


Favorite Live act:  Kraftwerk, after seeing them perform in Detroit, 
and enjoying their presence at the afterparty at oslo.  (who was the dj 
who played last that night btw? he was nixing without headphones, 
played some electro and ghetto-tech, lots of doubles, scratching.  He 
was wearing an aux 88 t-shirt if that's any help)

Re: (313) Buzz Goree mix/what is the "abandoned building in mono"?

[Wojciech]

Buzz is playing the acapella over the b-side of windchime, a song 
called "abandoned building in mono" .   Speaking of that record, isn't 
it the picture of the Michigan Grand Central  Station, the old train 
station close to downtown detroit that has been abandoned since '88 
that's printed on the label has "abandoned building" on it?

cheers for that.

Well there's an acapella version of Transition in there? (laid over the
top of another track?? or is it just a different version?)

Re: (313) Buzz Goree mix

[Wojciech]

During his set in the necto tent at last year's movement, buzz played 
that acapella by itself and the effect was amazing, to say the least
