Re: SV: [313] Mark Ambrose
Thanx to all for helping me fill in the gaps with Mark Ambrose. He is coming out with Hardware Corp for dates in Sydney and Melbourne this fortnight, so I was able to talk to him. Here, then, is some info direct from the source. Mark has new records out through Canada's Free Funk and Chicago's Euphoria labels and he is working with San Francisco's Primal Records. He now runs two labels, Crayon and the off-shoot Lifeforms. Just one release has come out through Lifeforms so far and he has put the label on hold for now as he is too busy DJing and looking after Crayon. Lifeforms was conceived for deeper and darker material to that of Crayon. He admitted that the comparison to Red Planet in Musik magazine perplexed and pleased him in equal measures - though his favourite Detroit artists/labels are UR and Red Planet. As a DJ, he says he spins music firmly on the tech-house tip - from Red Planet type sounds through to funky house in the Derrick Carter vein. He is toying with the idea of doing a mix-CD with all Crayon releases as so far nothing of his has come out on CD. That's about it. Mark is a brilliant producer, that does a wide range of tracks. His work is NOT AT ALL, like Steve O'Sullivans (though he has released on Steve's Mosaic label). he has a usually complex sound, with rich soundstructure. He has just released a new one on Crayon, which is tuff, jackin' tech-house. It even samples abit of old dancemania. As a DJ, he is very good. Tuff, but not too hard. Go and hear him if you have the chance.
Re: [313] Oliver Ho (and Blueprint and Surface...)
I saw Surgeon and Ruskin last night. I think the assessments thrown up on this list were very accurate. Now I know why the Surgeon is called that - he is very clinical. His technique was OK, it just lacked the funk or any feeling. Ruskin was great - very funky. He is very versatile technically and had a good selection of tracks. He played Mills, Ho, etc. I was very impressed. Catch this guy if he comes to a town near you.
From Our Minds To Yours - October 28th, 2000, Detroit, Michigan
(I can't believe no one's mentioned this on the list yet?) Fixer and I went to see Richie John do the Plus 8 Classics tour thing at Giant in LA last night. While I'm not much of a fan of superclubs, it's a nice big venue, and the DJ area is low (2 feet above the main floor) and one could get a great view of Richie spinning (and sliding ... and tapping) his magic behind the decks/efx/909. He tore it up as usual (and a Join In The Chant remix encore! Long time no hear), and a good time was had by all. (I'll have a couple of pictures up in the next day or so.) At the show there were flyers for the Plus 8 Classics tour (practically non-stop until December 2nd in Singapore). The big news on it: FROM OUR MINDS TO YOURS, celebrating the 10th anniversary of Plus 8 Records, featuring Richie Hawtin (decks/efx/909+) John Acquaviva Speedy J (live) DBX (live) Kenny Larkin The Kooky Scientist (live) Theorem (live) Matthew Hawtin Clark Warner Call our info line line at +1 519 259 4322 It's time for me to go back to Detroit. - Greg (Technotourist, West Coast chapter)

After listening to the set on Groovetech, and then popping on my Recloose single, I would be willing to put down money that it's some sort of remix that hasn't been released.

313 and Broadcast Media
How does the following post relate to 313? Well it shows that the future (and not too distant past) of Detroit techno belongs on the true community radio shows of the world, as well as the World Wide Web. What did that old 'has-been' say about pocket calculators and tv sets, remote controls and micro-cassettes...? Ms Cyclone wrote: And radio has a lot to do with it, too. Urban music is only just breaking in Australia now due to a latent racism that held it back for years. Universal has tried for years and years to break Mary J Blige but radio will not support her because she is too them too Black- which is a hideous situation. Radio only reluctantly got behind Lauryn Hill - after months of Sony campiagns and then the Grammy coup. I don't really think 'latent racism' is holding back Urban music on commercial radio in Australia... it's more a case of the target marketing of a specific audience, with a specific format/sound. Commercial radio is a very stagnant medium in Australia and it works to a very limited playlist... which is pretty much Classic Rock, M-O-R and a handful of crossover-pop tunes. Sure Hip-Hop, RB and Soul hardly get a look in... but neither does most Alternative Rock, Heavy Metal, Electronic music, Country Music etc.etc.etc. This is why community radio is so important and why its supportbase is building in momentun... Amen to that! because it responds to the community and young people (and young at heart) and ethnic people and working class demograhics and gay audiences, not monied young Anglo-Australian conservatives and suburban sheep who don't know that they are being programmed. I don't know about your demographic categorisations... conservative sheep come in ALL shapes and colours.

Re: [313] 313 and Broadcast Media
And radio has a lot to do with it, too. Urban music is only just breaking in Australia now due to a latent racism that held it back for years. Universal has tried for years and years to break Mary J Blige but radio will not support her because she is too them too Black- which is a hideous situation. Radio only reluctantly got behind Lauryn Hill - after months of Sony campiagns and then the Grammy coup. I don't really think 'latent racism' is holding back Urban music on commercial radio in Australia... First off, I link this back to 313 towards the end. Oh I think it is and I have had first-hand experience of it, as have others of my friends in various media, most of them of non-Anglo Australian backgrounds and some very high profile. I could tell you stories! When Janet Jackson's Gots 'Til It Gone came out, someone from a mainstream radio station called Virgin every day to say how much they hated that song because it was too urban. They played it grudgingly and it was a hit regardless, so what is their problem? I have heard very overt racist comments made by record company and radio people and I have heard things repeated to me by friends. Eg When Kelis came out someone at her label told me something like oh we should be able to break her as she isn't that dark. What's worse is that this person had no sense of how racist that was and said it to me openly in spite of my involvement with that scene! There is one community station here in Melbourne that is just itching to dump its urban show because it feels that it is too commercial (unlikely!) and replace it with a show devoted to techno/house/whatever. I have put it to the show's personnel that they should not be afraid to really put forward the politics of this situation to save what is the station's most highly rated show - and that is that the government funded ABC TV and Triple J radio network does nothing to appeal to the Indigenous and ethnic demographic (Indigenous Australian/Pacific IslanderAfrican/African-American/South East Asian/Asian/Middle Eastern/East European/etc) that makes up the core RB audience. And when Rage (Friday/Saturday night video show) does hash together a hip-hop special, they drag out all the old Ice Cube/Ice-T videos - like, they have nothing recent? It's true - mainstream radio will play Boyz II Men but never Jodeci/K-Ci JoJo. The people on the community show have to make that distinction between watered down urban pop and the real thing and argue that what they play (ie the latter) is not supported for cultural reasons. The only reason K-Ci and JoJo broke out in Australia with that song All My Life is that it featured JoJo Hailey's vocals only and he has a nice light tenor. K-Ci's vocals are more bluesy and even gospel-driven and more Bobby Womack-like. If he had sung on All My Life Australian radio wouldn't have played it because it would be too Black for them. Silly, isn't it? Australian radio programmers love Backstreet Boys, 'NSync, et al - here is RB made by white (mostly white as Backstreet has one or two Latino members) people - perfect for them. What an ugly situation. I think fundamentally Australian mainstream types are scared of anything that is ghetto-centric - that is anything that either glamourises/celebrates the ghetto (ie Puff Daddy) or exposes the hardships/realities of inner-city America (The Roots through to DMX, etc, etc). They say, this is not relevant to us. Now how does this relate to 313? Well it means that Australians probably feel more comfortable with a Tricky or a Jeff Mills as they articulate something very different to urban music - and ironically this is why those same artists do not fit into the US mainstream's idea of Black music. So in some ways the Australian mainstream is very accepting, in others it's not. I am just lucky to know of a new generation coming up in labels and the media who are more enlightened. Changes are afoot and it's good.
Re: [313] 313 and Broadcast Media
it's funny because here in the U.S. lots of people do feel that Jeff Mills or May are not Black music. But then these other places try to erase their ethnicity because techno artists lack the same kind of image as other urban Black music. But Detroit techno is Black. I tell people who are afraid of these records that if they like P-Funk they will like 313 music. It's funny because a nice person on this list sent me an article on Jeff where he talked about the race issue. For them it's like a double-edged sword. And I can understand their frustration because it appears that they are able to succeed outside the U.S. because they are not really Black. but within the U.S. they are not Black enough. Stupid stereotypes and their racist insititutions never go away. I guess that's why hip-hop is so fascinating because even in some very racist countries it is still a desired cultural commodity. So that even though some Asian countries still wonder where Black people hide their tails they still buy Busta Rhymes CDs. disgusted, Five

And in my post I wasn't specifically trying to focus upon Urban music... I was making generalisations to the bigger picture (313 included). I don't doubt that racism exists within Australian mainstream music media. In the big picture racism is basically ignorance and fear, and mainstream media is ignorant and afraid of many genres (not just Urban music). Mainstream media doesn't cater to my music needs, so I have very little to do with it. Music is relative. I'd rather read reviews on Forcefield, read articles in Straight No Chaser, listen to interviews on Andrew Duke's Cognition, and listen to Ron Hardy DJ-sets on the Deephouse site. People have always had to try that little bit harder to get exposure to underground music (like Detroit techno), and underground music has always had a pretty steep learning curve. And no matter how underground you think the music you like is... more often than not, there's always a bunch of people out there who like it too (hello 313-list). A genre like Jazz has a huge following thanks to dedicated media outlets and grassroots support... and despite the lack of mainstream media coverage. peace ~Askew _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Re: [313] 313 and Broadcast Media
We all know you're a good guy who can see the wider picture, Mr Askew! I was talking generally. I 100 % agree the mainstream media is weird with many underground styles - techno and house included. I used to think it was just urban music that was marginalised but I find that quality music - house and techno - gets as bad a go, trance and big beat gets the push. Even some of those reviewing Madonna's new record don't have a clue about what it is she is doing and it is her most adventurous work in some time. Talking of the mainstream media and 313, anyone seen the DJ Rolando interview in NME? It's just out. I think there was another in Seven too. Seven is Mixmag's more clued in little sister/brother 'zine. This thread was started by a comment on how major-labels have screwed-over alot of 'underground' artists. And in my post I wasn't specifically trying to focus upon Urban music... I was making generalisations to the bigger picture (313 included). I don't doubt that racism exists within Australian mainstream music media.
Re: Discography Webspace
Almost finished up this KDJ discography anybody out there want to put it on their website? Figure it's a valuable resource, considering there is next to no information about this man on the Internet and his records barely exist. Also, can anyone supply the tracklisting for KDJ001 (Moody Trax)? Also, anyone who has scans of the labels of the 12s/discs (I have no scanner) is welcome to send them my way. Thanks, Matt
track ID??
i saw shufflemaster throw down a very tight 3 turntable set last nite in chicago. he played this track that had male vocals saying are you ready dance? repeated four times, followed by let's go four times. another distinguishing feature was that the track had a kick drum roll. oh yeah, i think the label on the record said 'run stop.' anyone know what this is. thanks in advance. kyle
