Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

Slavery in all its forms should be ended, that's why I brought it up! We need to develop sustainable technology that doesn't rely on rare minerals because of the human and environmental cost. Have we really reached the point that if I don't explicitly reject slavery in a public discussion, the

It’s weird to me that you’re justifying slavery because it occurs. This conversation is taking a fascinating turn. > On Oct 18, 2018, at 14:27, David A. Powers wrote: > > 1. Stealing by RA is terrible. Remember that along with the fact of black > innovators not getting credit, there is an

Nice. Must say I'm intrigued. Guess there's no way to attend remotely or transcripts, though if that's possible would like to see more. Seems very interesting. On Thu, 18 Oct 2018, at 8:09 PM, Andrew Duke wrote: > https://fhi.duke.edu/events/drexicya-mars-interplanetary-water-mission> > > On

Not to add more fire to this discussion but what RA credits isn't even correct. The image is not from RBMA. Secondly, I don't consider RA real journalism. It's a blog for all intents and purposes...this does not mean they shouldn't cite, credit, their sources properly. On Thu, Oct 18, 2018 at

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

What a fantastic discussion. I am inspired to spin some Drexciya later when I get to sit down. Maybe I’ll try to think more deeply about the context of the music. Cheers, Shaun (England) On Thu, 18 Oct 2018 at 19:28, David A. Powers wrote: > 1. Stealing by RA is terrible. Remember that along

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

The exploitation thing is certainly something, and that's probably the reason for the animosity. It's not this isolated thing, but stealing from the cultural heritage - I think I can appreciate that. 100% agree on the slavery thing. Very well put. Also, with respect to art. Top marks. No further

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

1. Stealing by RA is terrible. Remember that along with the fact of black innovators not getting credit, there is an even more common story of exploitation in the music industry: musicians and creators who get ripped off, whether it's theft by a manager, record labels stealing, or this current

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

I'm all for positive discrimination. In order to achieve any sense of equality, it has to be done. It's the way to correct things. RA is a London-based website so far as I know. London is an international city whose residents are less racist than average. It seems that the most racist parts of the

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

Ronnie: Tuesday afternoon FB feeds showed me RA had published a YouTube video titled same as this thread topic. As a HUGE Drexciya fan, I saved the link to check when I got home from work. Didn't check the torrent of emails and messages and notifications that turned out to be related. Tuesday

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

We should hear the voice of a Black Detroiter narrating about Detroit music. How often does that happen. That doesn’t communicate that the music is only for people of color. White people are never excluded from anything. And in 2018, unintentional? Please. Luis Manuel Garcia writes amazing

Newish Sean Deason: Life EP

This is a great release, that I did the mastering for. Given the year I've had I actually forgot that I did the digital mastering for it. Jwan Allen posted about it on Facebook and reminded me of it. "Life" is based around a Strings of Life sample/recreation which is pretty cheeky, but it's a

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

As a white person who grew up in Scotland, listening to Public Enemy, and Paris, and reading the biography of Malcolm X, I don't exactly feel comfortable making comment here. I think here there's clearly a lack of sensitivity. It is likely to be unintentional, and in the case of the unattributed

Re: Why Drexciya Took Detroit Electro Underwater

Sigh. I am absolutely disgusted by RA's handling of this at time of publishing and since. Denise makes great points. Liz Copeland's interview with James Stinson is also used. I am tired and cranky and thus this post ain't eloquent. Someone just sent me this link (below) re RA that was published

I love Drexciya. And it's really cool to be able to hear from James Stinson still in 2018, thanks to Andrew Duke. And it's pretty amazing that Andrew Duke did that interview. It's a priceless artifact. I could go on! Resident Advisor didn't credit Andrew Duke when they first posted the video, and
