 Paul Johnson is played to death in holland also..(well his track that
is..) it
 seems that mr. Johnson is earning some big money with this major Ibiza
hit,
 it's a cheesy track but it still is Paul Johnson indeed



i have to tell you all, that i don't really think this is a cheesy track,
and i truly don't see it out of line with any of paul johnson's work in the
past... he ranges from disco to booty, but always with a sense of humor...
most of his tracks tend to be loopy with little variation (though the loops
may be long), and even the disco ones maintain a stark, tracky deep
basis

having been a serious pau ljohnson fan since welcome to the warehouse i
see this track as being perfectly paul...

and i love his voice... i always picture him sitting in his studio saying
all the silly shit in his songs eg you're so silly, uncle paul make me
laugh, etc.

peace out,
holly

 For the 313: What do you think a *stereotypical* Detroit techno release
 consists of in terms of cover art and song names.

in my mind a stereo typical detoirt release has NO cover art... just label
art, and should be in  a black jacket... and i don't give a shit what the
song is named... cause i'll never remember anyway i 'lll only remember
if its a1 or b2 or whatever.

the less information, the more i'm left to feel and interpret the music
myself...

 For the 313: What do you think a *stereotypical* Detroit techno release
 consists of in terms of cover art and song names.

 My answer:  It usually has blue metallic or electronic looking things
on
 the cover (why do I think BLUE when I think Detroit?), and the songs
are
 two words or less, like Monument or Code Error -- something like
 that.


I'll give you two possible responses:

Cover art?  Hell, there are often as many white labels in
circulation as there are legitimate releases for a lot of this
stuff.  Predominant color?   Detroit is flat out BW...
Titles?  Either introspective (My Soul) or inter-stellar
(Last Transport to Alpha Centauri)

IMHO, 313 music is ideally packaged in graphic design that
recalls comic book adaptations of Sci-Fi movies, or is so minimal
that it replicates simplified machine design.  And titles for me
serve little function unless they support an overall theme for an
LP, a la X-102...

Cheers:

This is a blatant self promotion. I've done a new mix tape entitled The 
Tektite Sessions, representing Merrick Brown's Tektite Label, taken from their 
first five releases. The sound ranges from tech house to deep techno. For all 
who are interested in a free promo copy, please e-mail me back to this address 
with your name and address. I'm going to give away up to 40 copies.

A fair warning to all you hardened ravers out there, there is no hard house, 
progressive trance, or 2 step drums n bass on this tape:)

This tape will also be up on real audio sometime in the next week or so, I'll 
post the info when we get it up.

respect to mr. sicko for his well crafted book, Techno Rebels. I know
many people around the planet are reading it and it is creating a buzz. I
just finished it and for the last week or so ive been totally immersed in
the world of detroit. i did not get exposed to 'troit techno until a bit
after its beginnings, and dan's history lesson filled in many blanks for
me, as well as even inspired a new wave of detroit music enjoyment in
my interests and lifestyle... 
the book really supports an intimate relation between detroit music and
the listener.

Perhaps but Dan would've had to devote most of the book to answering it. 
Different
people get different things from techno. 

What do we

Personally, I listen for human qualities in electronic sounds, qualities that
would be harder to pick out from music that didn't use electronics.

I guess i listen to 'techno' because it's interesting music.
to me techno music can be forward thinking or a nostalgia representation of
the future like electro.
today the true definition of techno is vague because technology enables
people to use a wide variety of tools at their disposal to create futuristic
electronic dance music.
thus you have many interpretations of techno and a more eclectic use of
sounds,
thats why you have so many dance music genres, has nothing to do with a
mysterious detroit techno virus but more to do with the advancement of
technology.
the instrument that revolutionized techno music was not the Roland XOX box
or synthesizer but the sampler.
It was the old analogue medium evolving to a new digital/computer based
medium creating new possibilities, making techno music more accessible and
affordable for dj/producers.
what really started techno was the creation of dance music on drum machines
and synths/ keyboards.This had a mechanical-electronic result, so dance
producers took a more futuristic/ sci fi approach to their music because
high resolution sequincers and samplers were not available at the time so
they could not reproduce the feal of a live band or disco orchestra.
techno had more to do with visionary dance producers utilizing technology in
a studio  then live musicians playing interments.
The TR 808 Rhythm Composer and Kraftwerk started it all.

that was brilliant.

later,
spw

PS. NO! I haven't read Techno Rebels yet.

(313) back from paris

1999-09-28 Thread Kent williams
I have survived Paris, and the flight home!

Highlights of the trip:

1. Working. A lot. You don't want to know. On the bright side, they fed me
at the Dassault Systemes cafeteria very well...French cooking really is all 
that,
once you get used to chewing tougher beef that's raw in the middle ;-)

2. Wine. Omigod.  The 20 franc bottle of french wine kicks major ass over the
$10 bottles you get here.  They don't export the REALLY good stuff.

3. Merguez Frite. Take a nice crusty french bun, add Merguez (kind of like a
Slim Jim, only really spicy and good), a bunch of french fries, mayonnaise and
mustard, and you have the premiere gutbomb a la Francais.  Extra points if they
deep fry the sausage and the fries together.

4. Pure Science live at the Rex. Used to wimpy 40 minute sets from a laptop in
the US? This brit went mental for 2.5 hours with very catchy tech house. At one
point he was rolling a joint and switching patterns on his MPC at the same time.
I would love to find out more information about Pure Science.

5. Jeff Mills/Carl Cox/Sven Vath/Richie Hawtin at the Zenith.  An opportunity to
see Mills spin was a dream come true.  And the boy delivers!  Lots of ink has
been spilled on Jeff as a DJ, and he is all that. What really impressed me is
the steady booty dance he does when he's spinning. The top half of him is a blur
of motion, and the bottom half is jacking full time, seemingly independent.

6. Meeting and hanging out briefly with Elodie Cousin, who is a very nice young
woman, and her friend the other Elodie (DJ Laura Palmer).  It is so nice to be
in a foreign city and having at least a few folks willing to show you the ropes 
...
Merci plus bien Elodie! I tried to explain the english expression twist your 
arm
to her and didn't get very far, but maybe it will catch on in Paris ;-)

7.  Meeting and hanging with Chris O'Grady, who was a Motor DJ before moving to
Paris a few weeks ago. I sorted him out for music software, so the boy is on 
the case
making tracks.  He and Emmanuelle gave me the grand tour of the Bastille and 
beyond...

8. The courtyard of the Louvre at night when it's lit up and the chamber groups 
are
playing.  Magnificent.

9. Meeting some label folks -- Goodlife Records from Grenoble have some very 
tasty
tracks.  I met some others but don't have all my business cards here to list 
them all.

 This is an interesting question [snip].  Especially because I
 have always tried to explain with great detail how techno

for Techno
 Rebels and stick to a more practical style.

Ah, avoiding the question Mr. Sicko?  :-)

I've always wondered what it is about current generations that
have shown a tendency away from linear narrative, and more
towards repetition.

Song forms with strong structure, lyric, and melody were
especially useful when music technology (fidelity) was
much lower.  Does the mere presence of bass-bins
allow us to enjoy bass-heavy forms of music?

Aside from the purely social function that the
Electronic Music scene provides, why are we drawn
to repetitive music?  Are our minds evolving to accept
these are valid artistic statements?  Is it a reaction/
reflection of the way we understand our world (bytes)?

Is it still rebellious to listen to non-narrative machine
music, the way rock was a rebellion against 40s and 50s pop?

One good question spawns a host of others...
