Much respect to Matthew Herbert, he's an excellent producer and entertaining DJ... but you should look a little closer at his live performance. He played a solo set (clunky Radio Boy style including 'Take me Back') by himself, and an 'Around the House' set with Dani and Phil in Melbourne. During the solo set he was 'playing' objects (plastic bags, Coke cans etc.) into the microphnes (and playing with the FX on the mics), but the actual tracks were running off DAT. During the 'Around the House' set, there was live vocals by Dani, and live keys by Matthew and Phil... but the rest of the tracks were playing stright from DAT. There was a sampler on stage, but I didn't see/hear any actual sampling. Still a great show though! peace ~Askew _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Would you consider someone sitting/standing onstage behind, say, a laptop and hitting certain keys in order to get the sounds out to not constitute a live act? Maybe the laptop/MPC has to be understood as a newer type of instrument which demands different sort of expectations when viewed in a live context. Let's face it: the majority of instruments behind 313 type music don't lend themselves to real dynamic visual displays of technique. Remember the days of the guitar-style synth...; ) Carl started with 'For my peepz', pushed the play button, raised his hand into to air, making a v-sign and started talking through the mic. for 5 minutes, that's a show and not really a live act.

Live In Detroit 1999 Tracklisting.
A few people wanted to know about the track listing for Theo Parrish's Live In Detroit 1999 tape. I've just listened to it again (after trying last week only to find the tape was swapped by my girlfriend for the Little Prince, in french, which was nice, but not much of a groove). I haven't done all the house tracks, cause I don't know them all. I know all the disco/boogie except the one that Discocaine sampled on Back to back, if anyone can ID this, let me know. If anyone, out of gratitude, wants to reward me for this, I don't have either Overyohead or the one sided Summertime 12 thing. If anybody should find a spare copy of either, let me know, and I'll sort out reimbursment by way of cash or exchange. Here's the patchy listing: 1. Theo Parrish 2. Theo Parrish 3. Herbie Hancock - Stars In Your Eyes From the Monsters LP, which is crap, also available on a 12. 4. Players Association - Hustlin' From their first LP. 5. Larry Heard? 6. ??* 7. Old Trax thing, sounds like a dub of something well known? 8. Five Special - Why Leave Us Alone Fairly easily found 12 9. Cameo - It's Serious Very easy to find 12 10. Fingers Inc. - Washing Machine 11. Theo Parrish 12. Body Soul type thing.* 13. Theo Parrish - the best he's done, IMO, is this Overyohead? 14. Apparently on a Salsoul subsidary, I know Discocaine sampled it for Back to Back. If anyone knows what this is, let me know. 15. Theo Parrish. 16. Theo Parrish. 17. Whatnauts - Help Is On The Way Quite hard to find, though try www.raregrooves.co.uk , they had a special on it a while back. 18. Made In The USA - Shake Your Body On De-Lite. The 12 is quite sought after, the LP's middlingly easy to find. I've got a spare 7, if anyone is desperately after it. 19. Marvin Gaye - Heavy Love Affair From the In Our Lifetime LP, which is good. 20. Bumblebee Unlimited - Lovebug Reissued on Unidisc, also on rare Red Greg 12 and album. It's Leroy Burgess, Patrick Adams etc. 21. Roy Ayers - Can't You See Me On 12, also available on some comp, apparently. One of the tracks marked with an asterisk is by Kings Of Tomorrow under a pseudonym that I cannot remember off the top of my head, but they used the same name for the Rude Movements EP on Yoshitoshi- I can't remember which track it is, either. Sorry. Similarly I haven't written what tracks are which for the Theo Parrish ones, partly because I am lazy and can't be bothered to check when I get home and partly because I don't have all the Sound Signature twelves to know. (hint hint). Enjoy, Jonny.

You could be right about the first track, it just sounds like him to me. I'm not at home to check the ones I *know* are by Theo, either, but the First Floor double pack sounds right for that track. It's a bit of a rough and ready listing, as I say.
Plus 8 article on Sonicnet
Thought this was pretty cool. The news itself is not new, but it was nice to see some nice quotes from Richie, articulating his thoughts on the retrospective CD. Here's the link: http://www.sonicnet.com/news/story.jhtml?genreNameForDisplay=Dance%2FElectro nicgenreDirectoryName=danceid=1123320 Jason Birchmeier Editor All Music Guide http://allmusic.com 734-887-5600x186 Techno Luminaries Richie Hawtin And John Acquaviva's Label Turns 10 Plus 8 Records plans series of classic tracks, U.S. tour. Contributing Editor Corey Moss reports: Richie Hawtin and John Acquaviva's Plus 8 Records, one of the most respected techno labels of the last decade, will honor the past with a compilation series, tour and concert event celebrating the imprint's 10-year anniversary. Plus 8 Classics, a three-CD series that will be released separately in October and November, will feature pioneering techno artists such as Holland's Speedy J (born Jochem Paap), Japan's Ken Ishii, Boston's Fred Gianelli (a.k.a. the Kooky Scientist) and Detroit's Kenny Larkin and Dan Bell, along with tracks by Hawtin and Acquaviva. I spend a lot of time working on new ideas and trying to push forward artistically, which was also the main driving force behind Plus 8, Hawtin said. So when I started thinking of releasing a classics album set, I felt a little apprehensive. But I realized that to work on new ideas and to push forward artistically, you need to understand, or at least be aware of, the building blocks and history of what you are involved in. Hawtin and Acquaviva started Plus 8 in early 1990 out of the Detroit basement where Acquaviva's father made fresh mozzarella cheese. Their goal was to release their own singles with Hawtin producing under the alias Plastikman and expand the boundaries of the relatively young music called techno. When we started recording we thought we had already missed the boat and that techno was just a fad to many people, Hawtin said. Luckily this didn't faze us, and we just went ahead with our plans, racked up [record-] pressing charges and bills on John's credit card, and the rest is history. Minimalistic Style Throughout the decade, Plus 8 became known for its minimal aesthetic in music and design. Its From Our Minds to Yours compilations, the first of which was released in 1991, were revered worldwide. Plus 8 defined, for a lot of us, not only what the sound was, but a whole set of experiences growing up, said Johnny O, manager of Detroit's seminal Motor nightclub. For those before us, there was the Music Institute, but for us it was the Plus 8 parties, the Hard, Harder and Hardest parties. All of the events they did were like the gateway for the next generation of this scene. Johnny O also said that staying influential for a decade was no small feat. Ten years is huge. It's a reference point to figure out how much this music has been a part of people's lives. Plus 8 Classics collects many of the label's classic tracks, along with a number of rare and out-of-print singles, including Cybersonik's Technarchy, an early collaboration between Hawtin, Acquaviva and Bell; Larkin's Colony; several cuts by Hawtin alias F.U.S.E., including Substance Abuse and Slac; and a few Plastikman tracks, including Spastik and Krakpot. I thought it was the right time to document the first phase of Plus 8, not only for the past or present-day techno supporters, but for the future supporters and producers who didn't have the luxury of being around during such an incredible time in techno history, Hawtin said. Techno's Memory Lane Hawtin and Acquaviva began compiling music for the series in 1998. It has been a daunting task from the outset, Hawtin said. [I remember] sitting in my living room with all the original vinyl and just going back down memory lane, he said. It took another year of relistening, thinking, talking to the artists, to friends and to peers in the techno community about their favorites to really come up with a list of songs that everyone was happy with. To coincide with Plus 8 Classics, Hawtin and Acquaviva will launch a U.S. tour Sept. 9 in Denver. Five dates have been confirmed, and several more will be added. I don't think people really ever knew what to expect from the next Plus 8 release. Was it hard, soft, ambient, experimental? Was it music at all? A T-shirt perhaps, a condom? Or even a print? We always wanted to keep people guessing, to keep the anticipation there, Hawtin said. I believe that's what you can expect from the tour. It's been a long time since John and I have done such a focused tour together, so who knows where that will take us all musically. Along with the Plus 8 tour, the label also will host the From Our Minds to Yours party Oct. 28 in Detroit. Speedy J, the Kooky Scientist, Theorem (born Dale Lawrence), Larkin, Bell, Richie's brother Matthew Hawtin and Clark Warner will be among the performers, according to Hawtin's

Fwd:Shake Benefit
- Forwarded Message: Subj: Shake Benefit Date: Friday, August 25, 2000 1:55:47 AM From: DJT1000 To: Glyph1001 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: ALAN OLDHAM AND TERRENCE PARKER, FIRST TIME ON THE SAME BILL, HELM BENEFIT FOR ANTHONY SHAKIR: SATURDAY, SEPT 16TH AT MOTOR DETROIT DETROIT-- Anthony Shakir just may be the Detroit Techno legend that you've never heard of. Although his profile and eclectic releases for the German International Deejay Gigolos label and his own Frictional imprint may be low key, make no mistake, the man has been around since the beginning. He had a track on the compilation that started it all: 1988's seminal Techno: The New Dance Sound of Detroit, the album that defined a movement and launched the international careers of many Detroit legends. Recently, as reported by New York City-based magazine Mixer, Mr. Shakir was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Medication for the condition is incredibly costly, and like most musicians, Shakir, affectionately known to us as Shake, doesn't have any insurance. In his capacity as part-time Techno reviewer for Mixer, Alan Oldham (known amongst the cognoscenti as DJ T-1000) saw the write-up in Mixer (mentioned as part of its DEMF coverage) almost before anybody and decided to do something to help his longtime friend; a benefit party. I immediately had the idea to use whatever influence or audience I had to help Shake. I'm not insured yet either and I'd hope that if anything happened to me, God forbid, someone would do the same for me one day. The folk music guys do this kind of thing all the time, why not us ? Oldham then enlisted the help of two key friends: Motor booking director Jon Ozias and another longtime peer, Detroit House Music legend Terrence Parker. Jonnie was incredibly helpful in giving us a night at the club, and (Motor owner) Dan Sorbyl in turn was very generous in pledging all door profits to Shake's medical fund, Oldham says. As for TP, I've always counted him as a true friend and respected him as an incredible DJ and even though we've shared airplane rides to Germany and Miami together and crossed each other on the DJ circuit, it dawned on me that we've never played the same bill ! So it's a first. House and Techno together. The two foundations of electronic music. It all comes together on Saturday, September 16th, 2000 at Motor in an event that Parker named Can You Handle The Truth ? (referring to the true, steadfast nature and outsider status of these Detroit underground legends). DJ T-1000 (in a rare Detroit club appearance) and TP rock it Detroit-style in the main room all night long. In the lounge is house music veteran Buzz Bangin Goree. Needless to say, there will be no guest-list for this event; the admission price is for a good cause. The nature of the music business demands that it be about us, us, us, all the time; our self-interests, our semi-celebrity status, comments Oldham. I get sick of myself ! My own motive for doing this night, besides helping an old friend, is using the power me and TP have as DJs and producers to help someone else for a change.

Re: [313] Re: anyone know? - urb dont know
I have to disagree. I think URB has done a pretty admirable job of covering the trendy and the not-so-trendy, (Black, White, japanese or Drexciyan ;) ) with equal attention. Check out last year's Innovators issue. I have yet to see another Future Music magazine -- XLR8R included -- put out an issue like that one, where the great choice of innovators selected was matched by some high quality writing. If I have one - uh - issue with URB it's that they can be a tad Left-Coastcentric, and that I rarely read a negative or even highly critical review of new music. peace, Jorge From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: [313] Re: anyone know? - urb dont know Date: Tue, 29 Aug 2000 16:29:36 EDT Hi all, I USED to be a reader of URB magazine.

ues @ dally in the alley 09/09/00
DALLY IN THE ALLEY + UES UES AFTER-PARTY (II) PAUSE FOR THE CAUSE () PLAY FOR THE DAY The 23rd Annual Dally in the Alley (Detroit, MI USA) Sat. Sept. 9th 2000 11am-11pm *rain date: Sun.

Artists
I'm new to Detroit Techno, but I really REALLY like it. I've often heard mixes in the radio with Detroit Techno, but they never mention the artists' names! Could someone tell about a good artist resource, or perhaps mention some names? I would be really grateful! Regards Mads -- NB- Ny e-mail adresse: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
