Re: (313) Movies Filmed in Detroit
Gridlock'd. That movie with Tim Roth and Tupac where they're junkies trying to get clean was filmed entirely in Detroit. I can't think of the name right now. I've probably repressed it since watching it was truly a waste of two hours of my life.

Re: (313) Vinyl
I don't know about that... I've never played any vinyl (save maybe 3 or 4 of them) to the point where I considered them worn out. One thing I have heard is that picture discs don't have the same sound quality as traditional black vinyl, but that's just something I've heard... I've never gone out of the way to spend the extra $$$ for a picture disc. As far as my ears can tell, the sound quality for colored vinyl is as good as black vinyl and I've never seen anything to prove that it wears faster. I say buy without worry :) Matt E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://magicmattkelly.tripod.com Seeing that you might be a bit more knowledgeable about this, can you tell me what differences may be between coloured and plain black vinyl .I heard from someone that coloured vinyl doesn't last as long (wears quicker).

Re: (313) movies that were filmed in Tha D
Roger Me is filmed in Flint and Detroit. But a documentary... The new John Frankenheimer film, Reindeer Games is set in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Don't know where it was filmed... There was a gangsta/mafia flick with Nicholas Cage and Michael Rappaport (Dick Richey) that came out two or three years ago - really sucked. This was set in Detroit. Was The Equalizer set in New York or Detroit? I can't remember. Probably wasn't filmed there at any rate. Can't forget the Beverly Hills Cop series... Not sure if these were filmed in Detroit. An addendum: almost everything is filmed off site. Northern Exposure was shot in Washington, not Alaska, most of the X-Files were filmed in Vancouver. Most American movies and television are filmed in Hollywood, except for establishing shots. This doesn't include Scorcese and Woody Allen (and a few others). One thing I've noticed: Detroit seems to be a lot less prominent in the American national media in the 90s than it was in the 80s. Probably because decline is more newsworthy than reconstruction??? Don't really know enough about it to say, and I don't pay enough attention to the news anyway, so this may be completely off base.

Re: (313) Vinyl
I think it depends where the records are pressed. Some plants make picture discs that have worn out sound quality from the beginning. And some manufacture normal sounding picture records. Someone could enlight us what is it with the process of making a pictured disc that distorts the sound? And I've heard complaints too about how coloured vinyl crackles much more than black vinyl... Which seems strange since vinyl originally doesn't have any colour, it's clear. Black colour is added in the process of making. Maybe other colours have some (dis)qualities that do not produce the best sounding records...? But this went a bit to the chemistry side I'm afraid. Proffit From: Matthew L.

It's funny cause I both agree and disagree with peoples bitterness towards the 'mainstreaming' of such a culture. Can you honestly say that you didn't expect this shit to happen? And for most of us, the raves are not such a huge part of our lives that something like young kids at a party seriously puts a damper on our day.

Re: (313) movies that were filmed in Tha D
With a girlfriend in the Motion picture (ok so it's TV)industry I'm privy to some wierd info. For the most part very few movies are actually filmed on location. Detroit Rock City was filmed in Buffalo for Fuck's sake. The amount of shit that a production crew has to go through is pretty ridiculous as there are so many thing that they have to have and have accounted for. Nearly all of the equipment (ie. Steady Cam operators, Post Production, etc. etc.) is in LA as well as experienced people to handle all aspects of production and logistical issues. Smaller films can film on location but it's still a pain in the ass. Movies like the Bridge, Dertoit Rock City , and Bird on a Wire Contain stock footage of the city but it's somewhat irrational for a film company to actually shoot there. It's not so much an issue of authenticity but logistics. Remeber in Bird on a Wire Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn took a Ferry from the D to Racine Wisconsin in 2 hours (I think the Ontarians should be pissed about that). And besides why does location of where it was filmed matter if there are indoor shots. As a side note the reason that Detroit has produced such great art over the years (IMO) is that there ain't shit to do but focus on your art. They film shit in San Francisco and LA all the time (I've seen my old apartment in Flashback). But this is a place where artist come to die it's beautiful here but is there anything being produced musically worth a shit no. Any great art no. An artist friend of mine who went to CCC in the D but lives her now calls it the place where artist's come to die. If you want to see tha D go home and visit your folks. Be proud of what's been produced in tha D-even if it is some dorky white kid from Romeo that happens to be the most famous at the moment.

Only when I passed a film crew wheeling some lights around did it hit me, fuck, I'm 250 miles from Detroit. I later found out I was driving through the set for Detroit Rock City. It was lovely, I shed a tear.
beam me up
At 13-4-00 -0400 15:54, you wrote: together with a friend i was actually beamed up! really cool, we had to bounce some crystals. (really, i'm not talking shit here) it was the nicest part of the exposition, together with old suits being exposed. the rest was somewhat childish BTW Marsel, how were you beamed up? Details? well, you had to stand in a cabine seeing yourself projected on a large film screen across, with a different background surrounding. then the bodies felt apart/fade away, and were gone. another background appeared, and we suddenly popped up again.. and then do some other video tricks. personal happening of the year so far ;) ___ forcefield | mindless entertainment http://www.forcefield.org _ __ ___
Re: (313) Rave betty Barbie and DJ Ken
I wear baggy pants and baseball caps and I listen to/spin techno. I have only been spinning records for a year and a half. Does that mean I'm not down with YOUR undergorund? Sorry I couldn't make it to parties in the early 90's. Ya see, I would have been about 13 and I didn't quite have a driver's liscence yet. Damn, I guess that's just another reason why I'm not down. If I would have realized that how you dress and how long you have been partying and where you buy your tables was all that mattered I would have just stayed home. See, I was under the impression that it was LOVE FOR THE MUSIC that counted. I always thought that even if you're wearing butterfly wings and ponytails it was cool. You would look stupid as hell but it's cool, so long as you LOVE THE MUSIC God damn, I am so glad someone finally opened my eyes. I am never going to another party ever, ever again. - Original Message - From: stephen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 313@hyperreal.org Sent: Friday, April 14, 2000 3:16 AM Subject: Re: (313) Rave betty Barbie and DJ Ken Go to a rave nowdayz and its just a bunch of kids with their baggy pants and baseball caps that are into trance-disco loops-progressive house-drumnbass, you dont see people that were into the scene in the early to mid 90's.

Our man's point was that it's not about how you look or how long you've been around, it's how you present yourself. Too many up-and-coming DJ's/producers/promoters/partygoers walk around like they're the shit/god's gift to technohousedrumnbasstrancewhatever when they really have no clue as to what the hell they are talking about or listening/dancing to.

Re: (313) Rave betty Barbie and DJ Ken
Jesus do we always have to have this whiny ass discussion. Let's make the distinction please as to the difference between the Rave scene and this mystical Utopian non-existant past that seems to fit so fondly in everyones mind. Raves and the trendy (it's a fashion and drug culture not a music culture stop deluding yourself-who the hell doesn't listen to music on drugs!)have, do, and will suck (opinions-assholes you know the cliche). The phenomena of the 80's in England where the Drug and Fashion culture that later becam raving wasn't based on the music from this list until several years after the Acid Houses Incantation. The Rave merely became a vehicle for Techno. Futuristic beats sound pretty cool on drugs no. As Dan Sicko pointed out most of the Artist you guys idolize on this list (jesus! they just make music) couldn't get heard anywhere and the rave was the only place to play the music of their lives. I'm personally glad that ferngully and re-disco are the only thing you can hear at a rave, I don't have to go to be annoyed with anyone. I can get my friends together throw an intimate 300 person party with great artist who ain't gettin booked at a rave cause they have talent and then I can have a genuine good time (not to mentioned we dress well). Every other week someone in New York, LA, or San Fran is posting about quality small techno events. It can be hard because of the fees that must be paid to the Detroit Artists who have been getting way more fame/respect/money in Europe and recently australia are so high. It would be nice if some of the artist would do some favors and come play for less than their Euro Cost. To build and maintain a lasting you have to maintain the core audience that will stick around. So if anyone knows any cool ass artist (the Burdens have offered) want to come out here hang out with some deprived Tech-heads and rock a small house party let me know. God I remember only 4 years ago seeing Claude Young Tag for 4 Hours with Mike Clark in a Basement in Lansing. Fuckin Quality. The kids are all wrong big deal but unless we snag a few of em an educate em about the history and tradition then there will be no more music being made (in case you havn't noticed some of the artists are like ballplayers gettin over the hill) and all you'll have are achives of this list.

Re: (313) Rave betty Barbie and DJ Ken
I personally am less troubled by the presence of turntables in a barbie playset than by their presence in the band limp bizkit where they are used almost solely for the pop appeal of the urban image to market to mall children and to add a few needless and poorly placed scratches over a distorted guitar (btw that motherfucker hooks his rig up through a marshall stack which is just wrong...ugh). This is the commoditization of DJ culture. This is what will lead to more shit djs, increasing demand and prices for vinyl, more concern with style than music etc etc. that we all associate with commercialization. A DJ doll which probably won't sell because it's marketed to little girls who could give a fuck less is only a reflection of this larger problem (not that it isn't just sickenning, and thanks for posting that, it was quite amusing). The question is: Does the commoditization of DJ culture bother us because of the afforementioned reasons or because we are elitist jack offs who can't stand to see more people getting into in our music? I think most on this list would go with the former but we may give many people the wrong impression. Maybe if we act more elitist people will get turned off to the scene and we can have it all to ourselves! Just a thought, _joe (ps - before anyone flames me this is an attempt at humor. No sore feelings okay? peace)
