The synth strings on "Do You Know Who You Are" sound classically "Detroit" to me, with that brittle emotion and the combination of warmth and coldness that is characteristic of the feel of early 313 techno. What other old Chicago tracks can people think of that bridge the Detroit/Chicago gap as effectively as this Virgo track does? well there's tons of old ones i guess, with virgo and k-alexi being consistently that style, and of course mr fingers. sendex has recently been making tracks that hark back to this sound too, reallly nice. he posted one on the c-b-s forum http://www.smeyer.cistron.nl/~smeyer/music/sendex_temp01.mp3 ..wait what year is it? he'll be on a usa tour in early april, in detroit saturday the 10th jt _ Fast.

the 727 and the rz1 are both big faves of mine...(then again i just love any kinda drum machine) i guess we're kinda heading off topic now :) robin...

Not as far as I know - I managed to get hold of it a few months ago though, and have been giving it some heavy listens lately. I've got to hunt down this Farm Boy record that Alex mentioned - never come across that one before!

The synth strings on "Do You Know Who You Are" sound classically "Detroit" to me, with that brittle emotion and the combination of warmth and coldness that is characteristic of the feel of early 313 techno. What other old Chicago tracks can people think of that bridge the Detroit/Chicago gap as effectively as this Virgo track does? very obvious but "Can U Feel It", Mr. Fingers. so has "Do You Know Who You Are" been repressed recently or summink? robin...

Ron trent - Altered states Timeless p -Original Message- From: Brendan Nelson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 09 March 2004 12:34 To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: (313) Do You Know Who You Are (was RE: (313) what's your favorite track/album right now?) Here's another track that I love right now - Virgo, "Do You Know Who You Are". It's not from Detroit so I get a slap for mentioning it; however, to me it's a very good example of late-80s Chicago music that almost could have been made in Detroit during that period. I remember a discussion on here some time ago about exactly what differentiated the electronic dance music output of Detroit and Chicago (essentially, what differentiated techno from house) and this track definitely backs up the opinion that there was a lot of music being made in Chicago then that could have been mistaken for Detroit techno, just as some producers in Detroit were being heavily influenced by Chicago house. The synth strings on "Do You Know Who You Are" sound classically "Detroit" to me, with that brittle emotion and the combination of warmth and coldness that is characteristic of the feel of early 313 techno. What other old Chicago tracks can people think of that bridge the Detroit/Chicago gap as effectively as this Virgo track does? Brendan
