Adventures in Europe
If some of you are on other lists with me, most of this will be redundant, so I apologize. This is a chronology of my last two and a half weeks in Europe. Record reviews are forthcoming. Saturday November 11: I Love Techno in Ghent, Belgium. I was so excited to see Jeff Mills having backed out of the opportunity to see him @ Black Nation the last time I had a chance. I have to admit I was a bit (just a bit) underwhelmed by him though. Of course I had absurdly high standards, but I came away with a similar feeling to what I had when I saw Hawtin. After more than an hour of Hawtin or Mills I need a break. Or more precisely, I wish they'd give me a break. Unfortunately, when either Hawtin or Mills gives you a break it only lasts a minute or two, then they're right back up to speed where they were before. I prefer more variety from a DJ. This is all IMHO of course, and may reflect his performance for that event. Anyway, Mills, Monica Crusie, Miss Djax, DJ Hell all rocked there. Despite what may sound like a negative review, Mills was at the top of his game - 3 Decks and 909 and flawless as far as I could tell. Technasia live was a bit normal. Their live set didn't sound much like their tracks. That was kind of dissapointing. I didn't mess with trying to see Dave Clark - it was just too packed, and the music wasn't really doing it for me. Monica Cruise was much more my speed. Carl Cox did his thing and I didn't bother with Sven Vath. With five rooms going at once, you sort of have to resign yourself to chosing one thing and doing it. I think Dennis Mentioned some of the continental 313ers aversion to this event, which I can undestand. It was a huge somewhat commercialised affair - although nothing like a big rave in the US (much better). I was happy to see lots of DJs that don't usually make it stateside, so it suited my purposes. Thursday November 16: DJ Hype, Pascal, and residents @ Barumba: This was a Thursday night gig and we only found out about it when we arrived in the UK from Paris. Because I'm not a huge dnb head, I can't say a whole lot about this, but it was a great event and the crowd was very good. Probably the purest turn-out for any of the events I attended. I felt like I was seeing something with regulars who knew why they were there. I got to meet Shy FX who was just hanging out there, which was great since he was the first DJ to ever pull me through my initial resistance to dnb. Friday November 17: Tom Churchill and others @ the Institue for Contemporary Arts in London: This was a chill night. I love events in artsy environments, like when I saw Mark Ambrose and Stacey Pullen @ the San Francisco MOMA. Very classy. Tom's set was very diverse, with some new school jazz breaks (I think that's what he calls them) and other good downtempo stuff. This event ended @ midnight, so it was a short good beginning to the evening - as it was intended I'm sure. Later that night I tried to see Kevin Yost @ The End but he canceled and I saw some pretty good local house DJs spin in the Lounge. It's pretty bad when the door people don't know (or won't say) that the headliner has canceled though. Saturday November 18: Felix tha Housecat in the lounge @ The End in London: I have *no* idea why he was in the Lounge, but I'm very glad he was. It was such an intimate experience seeing him spin for three hours. He threw some crazy stuff in there, including Isolee. That was a trip. Londoners by and large are not ready for that yet. There were two girls from Boston chilling by the booth all night, sort of chatting with him, sort of bugging him. When he said he was out of records they made all sorts of requests and he said I've only got techno records left. I screamed play the techno records! He leaned over to me and said you may deserve the techno records, but this club doesn't. That was towards the beginning of my trip and I didn't really agree with him then, but I think I do now. Most of the people (not all) in London that are die-hard about music are into drum'n'bass or garage. They don't really even respond as well to deep house. Underground house DJs may play there, but they probably won't play the same records they play in the states. Sister Bliss and Mr. C also played this night. Sister Bliss was sort of Carl Coxish for you to take or leave. I was pooped by the time Felix finished so I headed over for a bit of Mr. C. It was very good but it was also 5:00. I had to go. Sunday November 19: Carl Craig @ The Space in Leeds: I only caught the last two hours of his set because the event went from 6PM-11PM on a Sunday. Most of the clubs in Leeds have to close early on Sunday - thus the weird hours. That's how it was explained to me anyway... Carl Craig is not known as a great DJ, but he's as close to an idol as I've got (since I'm not really into idolatry), so I was as excited about seeing him as I was Mills - maybe moreso. The Space is a nice small venue adequate to the task. Sort of reminds me of an American

Tom Lawton wrote: By the way Carl Craig K1 at Space in Leeds on Sunday were excellent. Keith laying down a barrage of slammin electro, along with Sharevari DJ Hell/Richard Bartz Trax, Carl playing everything from french house to Talking Heads (not so sure if it was a remix, bootleg or vocals dropped on top of another track), mike's jaguar mix mixed into the good men give it up, Yazz (so tristan told me) and something with a killer reese bassline. Unfortunately, had to leave before closing to get my train home. Congrats to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for getting these two into leeds on a cold sunday night. SNIP Carl also played a mad latin drum track that went on for ages ages ages, occasionally cut out to just an 8 beat drum kick, before doing the same again only slightly faster in tempo. Can anyone ID that for me? That was from Carl Craig's Designer Music Volume 1, although it sounded differently organized to the version I have. I could have been imagining it, or I think he may have doubled up on that track. I can't entirely remember. I do remember him doubling up on something though - or it seemed that way at least. He may have had a sample running on top of it too, perhaps that crazy multi-octave heavilly effected scream he was using.

Re: [313] reviews + more hotties
Tom Churchill wrote: Luomo - Vocalcity (Force Tracks) The Luomo stuff has quietly been causing a stir on the underground for a while now and it's easy to see why - six long tracks of impeccable electronic house falling somewhere between Maurizio/Main Street, Herbert, and the Playhouse camp. Beautiful vocal treatments, warm atmospheres, quirky but tracky beats and great arrangements. I have to second this recommendation, I have been playing Luomo heavily, this is a must for fans of Main Street Records or you early Chez and Trent fans -- who are wondering where you can scratch that itch with newer artists (besides the Playhouse and Perlon catalogs). I love the vocals that creep in and out of the murky dubbed-and-dialed-out deep house. And it's a triple-pack so you can mix and match this stuff forever, each track is like 12 minutes long... Also I am way into the other stuff Tom C. Marsel have been reviewing, the Bitasweet, IG Culture and Mainsqueeze/Bugz in the Attic tip, but I skew towards the more electronics-infused stuff than the real way out pure fusion afrobeat stuff... which gets too wanked out for me, personally. People in Detroit looking for the west london / broken beat stuff (i.e. - 2000 Black and various Dego abstract projects of late, like what he was spinning at DEMF) should check out DJ Supply in (yes, Warren!?). Brian go-go Gillespie is doing the buying and the selection is not gigantic but what's there is QUALITY... all the stuff Goya distributes. And there are surprises in the bins like old Roy Ayers reissues for the headz who want to go back that far... Other stuff I can't put down right now: -- CiM - reference LP (DeFocus) -- V/A - Laws of Motion compilation -- V/A sampler and Sonar Lodge 12's on Music for Speakers -- Cheateau Flight - Puzzle (Versatile) - beautiful thoughtful music -- Nubian Mindz - New World Chaos (Archive) so UR insipred! Brillaint -- Soul Circut - Don't Spoil the Tension, soundtrack -- Mafia Sound System (Dialog? / Sonar Kollektiv) weird spooky brokenbeat also heard a wicked 10 on Plug Research but forgot the title...
