Re: [313] The epistemology of techno
Well, duh. Re: what is the definition of techno? One has to ask first, what is a definition? A definition is a label attached to a phenomena and it does not convey any attributes other than those relevant for the phenomenon under examination to have discriminative validity (I choose not to engage in the raging parsimony debate of definitions and axioms here). In order for a definition to have meaning, it has to be universally agreed upon by the relevant actors. For these actors, such a definition has utilitarian value. This value consists for instance of reduced communicational ambiguities by creating a body of knowledge that can subsequently be used for further advancements and refinements of the original concept (see also note 1). Note that a definition cannot be true or false, for any potential falsification process would consist entirely of (non-)acceptance by the relevant actors and thus cannot be considered a falsification process in the strict Popperian sense, since for all practical purposes, the definition acceptance process makes definitions more akin to axioms, which by definition cannot be falsified. The acceptance process by the relevant actors is rarely explicit and can be best understood as an implicitly socially constructed process between the relevant actors. However, quite often it is not *all* relevant actors whose actions are consequential in this process, but only a nucleolus of actors with a high network centrality whose actions constitute milestones in the definitional acceptance process. Yet rarely are such actions effective immediately, given their dependency on the receiving parties' attitude and reaction, thus rendering any decision process by the nucleolic actors regarding their intended actions in this process boundedly rational. The highly amorphous nature of this definitional acceptance process makes tracing and explicitizing it a problem of an intractible nature. Hence, the social constructivist paradigm argues that there does not exist a universal definition of any phenomenon, since the social circumstances are not constant, yet they are crucial to the definition acceptance process. This implies that definitions are potentially subject to variations over time, thus contradicting the single most essential aspect of a definition: its universal consistency through time and space. When taken to the extreme, this paradigm implies that as many definitions can exist as there are actors and even the staunchest social constructivists have realized that this is an untenable position from a realistic point of view. To avoid this, they have utilized the concept of the Anthropic Principle, which in its original form can be stated as: A phenomenon is the way it is, because we are there to observe it in that way. This establishes an explicit, irrevocable causal link between the phenomenon, the observer and the observation method, a link that is an anathema to the positivistic paradigm (note the interesting parallel with the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and the controversy that arose when it was first proposed). An important corollary of the Anthropic Principle is that, because observer and observation method matter, once an observer starts to describe the phenomenon under observation, there is inherently a loss of information about the phenomenon because a different observer, using a different observation method, would describe the phenomenon differently. Note that this does not render any such descriptive definition invalid from a practical standpoint, given the socially constructed process of defining. However, it does mean that no single observer (and by consequence, any finite number of observers) can theoretically arrive at a complete definition, since the process of defining inherently involves a descriptive reduction, thus rendering any definition inexorably incomplete. If we apply this to the definition of 'techno', it means that although a common understanding of 'techno' has emerged (in other words: the definition acceptance process has converged), articulating that definition would immediately destroy the richness of the implicit definition of 'techno', thus invalidating the question What is techno?. QED Otto PS: Note 1) A more malicious view would be that definitions are often used to obfuscate reality, thus creating a halo of perceived expertise around those who use those definitions, even though their expertise is based solely on linguistical dexterity and not on a conceptual understanding of the phenomenon under investigation. Obviously I do not subscribe to such a view.

Re: [313] what is techno
Look, I am gonna humbly try to answer Dustin's question in the name of closure and moving on. Dustin, I am hoping that by posting this you will stick with your agreement and let us do this. The reason why people have trouble defining 'techno' is that, while it has become universal, it exists simultaneously in a specific cultural context. Also it is not merely a form of music but rather one driven by an intellectual, philosophical and spiritual impulse. What's more, somewhat paradoxically, Detroit's techno auteurs - Juan, Derrick and Kevin - were consciously making a music that resisted definition. This is why the (American) mainstream cannot cope with it as the music is so radical that it disrupts its rigid social codes. It is a truly underground music form. Counter-cultural. A lot of this music's power is intuitive; you feel it. Listen to your heart; listen to your soul. Once you understand the cultural context and circumstances that gave birth to this wonderful music you will understand the distinction between 'techno' and what we recognise as 'trance' and the aversion that many within this music scene have to 'trance'. There is nothing wrong with liking trance but at least then you will understand why discussing it isn't appropriate here. It's a respect value more than about taste. It's deep and complex, and that is how it is meant to be, and I would feel presumptuous in trying to explain it myself here but I will guide you to where you can readily find this knowledge: (1) Dan Sicko's book Techno Rebels explains the cultural context. (2) Any interviews with techno's auteurs - especially Derrick May. Derrick is a very articulate and intelligent and passionate individual and not afraid to voice an opinion. If there is anyone who can really sum up the impulse behind this music, it's him. Likewise Juan, he's the Godfather, also Jeff Mills, and there are others. There are plenty of interviews on line and there have been some good ones over the years in the international press, too. (3) Carefully read the posts of those from Detroit, those who went to the Music Institute, etc - they are/were there, they know about the roots. They are the source. The teachers. Finally, some wise words from Jeff Mills: Why some people think Techno should be definite is a mystery. Perhaps they categorise for convenience. One thing that Techno has brought, is that there is nothing wrong with not understanding something. This I think is the origin of many of mankind's problems. This is not an answer, it's a guide.

Re: Zägezahn
Hi AFAIK Sägezahn refers to first of course the waveform secondly a revival of a certain german(?) sound from 94(?); since the first Strass record (by MikeInk) on FIM in 98 it has kind of exploded, at least in germany, and has become a sub-genre, exploited especially by Heckmann and FIM but also by MikeInk himself (Auftrieb). Once there came out a FIM labelsampler mixed by Rush consisting entirely of sägezahn. Altough initially intendet as tongue-in-cheek by MInk (watch out for his jokes!) the whole thing was taken quiet/too seriously after a while and IMHO became an escape-route out of a creativity-standstill for some. MInk (last time i mention him) offered in his late Freiland releases a more demanding (and funky) and less trancey approach to this concept of body-music. Nowadays it has already faded away on the whole, but it also has spread in some ways. For example you may hear some reminisences of zägezahn coming out of Bristol or in various electro-trax (Antarctica... anyone wants to drop a comment on this one?) Porter Ricks was sägezahn avant la lettre. one could say that Dusty Cabinets by Th Parrish (hellova track!!) is in some ways sägezahnish, but thats a bit far out and afterall i dont want to start it all over again, i shed no tears over this bugger dustin.

Re: [313] Monetary value of record
Fred (and 313): I just went through a similar thing with my insurance rep. Initially they were able to give me a bulk guess-ta-mate rate..i.e. i told them how much i thought my collection was worth..i valued every record i had at 5 bucks a pop... meaning i put a value of 20K. then i added 5K for rarity selections... to put the total value at 25K. they were comfortable with this until their higher ups made them look into it... now it gets nasty... i am technicallyy still covered for 25K worth of records..(acutally i pay for 35K so that over the next year..as my collection grows...i will still be covered...cost: extra 10 bucks a year). so their higher ups are forcing me to create a database of ALL of my records. including estimated cost. for now.. they took pictures of my studio and my crates/shelves/boxes/piles but i have 4 months to create the database for them. (and it will be online soon too!..) other people ive spoken to have different tales of insurance reps... some require the database upfront...some dont require it at all... mine would not have required it..except 1/2 my policy is based on the vinyl collection...*shrug* good luck. these people suck. -mike Does anybody know the value of an original pressing of Techno!

Re: [313] urban tribe...
Hi, I have to agree with the comments about the Urban Tribe album (prior to the recent mailstorm). I have to confess that I never gave it the full attention it deserved when I first bought it (hangs head in shame), but the more I've listened to it over time, the more I've come to appreciate it and feel quite how deep it really goes. Definitely one of my favourite purchases last year that's never far from the stereo. Also I recently bought a compilation (Freezone 3) that features Claude Young's Multiplicity Of Zeros and Ones. I am completely in awe of this track, and feel that I must have been hiding under a stone some place to have overlooked it ! I was already impressed at what an impressive DJ, and really personable guy he is, but the fact he can he can make electronic soul like this is breathtaking. Any hints as to what else I should be looking out for from Claude would be really appreciated. I'm still learning, thanks 313. :-) sImon Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

Re: [313] The epistemology of techno
The first bit seems to be in English Otto, but did you lapse into Dutch as you went on? A less discursive explication would be this: Words are signs to which we consensually attach meaning, as Roland Barthes was on about for so long. Barthes' contention was that control of the language is power, in that the controller of language can take a symbol/word and pour whatever meaning they want into it. He was talking about government propaganda, but in the brave capitalist future, the power of marketing and advertising overwhelms traditional nationalism completely -- people pledge allegiance to Tommy Hilfiger and Budweiser, not to the flag. For that matter Tommy Hilfiger has appropriated the American Flag and turned it into his marketing standard. 'Techno' as a term had a very specific association to the people who first used it to describe their music; for 313 initiates the term has broadened to include a lot of music that bears little resemblance to the original music. That's OK by me -- Jay Denham and Surgeons bangin stuff is at least influenced by and respectful of the originators. More disturbing to me is the way 'techno' has been appropriated as a marketing label that encompasses a lot of really revolting stuff, and THAT stuff is what the uninitiated think of when you say techno. I can't imagine a wider contrast than that between 2Unlimited and Ace of Base and I Believe and No UFOs. A similar thing happened in the 90s with the term 'alternative' which was a tag that was used to indicate a lot of really creative DIY music and record labels, before it became a marketing term after Nirvana blew up. The term 'alternative' now makes me cringe, and we've never really came up with a new term to tag that music that hasn't yet been co-opted. Oh well... kent williams -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [313] The epistemology of techno
Even broader, communication is the art and language is one of many media available. However, communication happens only on the part of the recipient, thus meaning is only assigned by the listener (or viewer or taster etc.) guided by genetics, social interaction, weather, mood, time of day, etc. The beauty of music is how it is so undefinable what the definition or rather meaning of it is, however the effect it has on us. This list is direct evidence that we share that. I think BMG put it in perspective best when we were talking about Aphex Twin's Picture Disk (HMNE/Joyrex J9ii, I think... HP can help me out w/that one ;). The conclusion was that it was so incredibly aggressive and unrestrained that it invoked so many emotions that it became frustrating. Not that the emotions were frustrating, but rather that there was nothing that could quite top it (musically), nothing that would surpass that particular degree of provocation. Bringing the point that the effect of music is some thing in tune with (bad pun) language, but by way of a different media and thus a different type of cognitive thought. Language is interesting, but music is seductive, provocative, aggressive, etc. more to the point emotionally inciting. A picture is worth a thousand words. A song must be worth at least 1,000 times that. Scott Sorry about the rambling, but I'm listening to Autechre (ep7)...

Re: [313] Mixed Up in the Hague Vol. 1
ps, shortly after this came out, clone had a new white label stocked w/ numberofnames:sharevari and charlie:spacerwoman- both of which were in the i-f mix. Fascinating. Does the white label you mention have the vocal version of Sharevari or the instrumental? I finally got a hold of my own copy of Mixed Up in the Hague and think it's brilliantly put together. I just got my copy of this white label in the mail yesterday. Its the vocal version of sharevari- totally bootleg, you can even hear a couple little pops from the vinyl- but overall decent quality. In addition to that and spacerwoman, theres two other 80's trax on the 12 that are decent but I have no idea what they are. maybe i'll put them in a mix so you all can id them for me :] one of them has an almost hot butter:popcorn 'esqe keyboard thing going on but in a more 80's disco vain. hmm.. ps- i agree on the i-f mix, have been listening to it regularly for the past two weeks. very nice :] p

Not the same mag, but in a recent Jockey Slut, they had DB dj's (LTJ Bukem, Jumpin' Jack Frost and some other guy) review 12's and they ripped on 'Revenge of the Jaguar', saying it was 'trying to re-create something that's long gone' (read Detroit) but also made sure to name drop lots of old tracks so we readers would know they were down back in the day. They also dissed Anthony Rother's excellent Little Computer People 12, citing it as a 'tired' and 'not progressive', which is a laugh coming from a guy who has made a career out of playing a Korg MS-1 pad over top of an uncut amen break ad nauseam. -jason http://www.genmod.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] Speaking of the whole Sony/UR thing, its all showed up in the latest issue of Mixmag!
