[313] J'acquaviva in LA tomorrow night / DetroitHouseinLA recap
Great news! Just heard that John Acquaviva is djing in LA on thursday night. I'll finally get to give this Finalscratch thing the "boogie n' bass" test (thats a technical term don't worry if you don't understand) here's the link: http://www.remedyent.com/ .Also Alton Miller at Deep on the 19th www.deep-la.com. The Terrence Parker/Rick Wade/Mike Huckaby night was better than I could have hoped for. Despite the competition of a mega-hyped house event the same night, there managed to gather an allright turnout. Rick Wade started the night's music, and did not disappoint my expectations with his set of deep dirty house. Terence Parker was next. At that point the crowd met it's maximum potential in size and energy. Terence Parker's set made me remember that house dj's can scratch and still keep a party hopping, unheard of in the house scene here AFAIK . I think alot of the more close minded heads were turned off by the amount of tricks TP pulls from his sleeves, but personally I was jammin along with every flick. And the trainspotter highlight of the night was a routine with double original copies of Capricorn's "I Need Love". Solid fun. Finally Mike Huckaby finished off the night with some solid pounding grooves to a smaller audience of thirsty dancers, eventually fading out the mix at 4 am. To be honest I was too lost in the chug to make any insightful remarks (chemically free you cynics) about the rest of the night except that it was "D"ope. For me, the hard deep style of those djs was a refreshing change of pace from the usual house parties here, and juding from the crowd's reaction I think most of those in attendence would agree, especially the many cats gettin funky on the floor. Last night, at the latest in a series of events called Black Palette Circuitry, Afronaught played a great selection of vinyl and cdrs. He played for about three hours, and despite some skip prone decks and a couple of spotty mixes it was some serious fun. Real good 2-step and what I guess is called broken-beat with a few deep house stompers like Blaze's "How Deep is Your Love". He played a couple of great mixes of the track with the "stop, stop and wonder why" vocal, maybe by Dego? Ok thats all.

[313] Karaoke Kalk RE: [313] Andrew Pekler
Actually, I have been curious about Karaoke Kalk. The only release I have from the label is Northern Classic by Donna Regina. Upon the first couple listens I liked it, but it was more background listening rather than serious critcal listening. When I really started paying attention to it I had problems with the really bad English-As-Second-Language lyrics. I would have enjoyed the album if the lyrics were not so trite. Does this represent the label as a whole, or are there other releases I should be looking out for instead? Where would you recommend I start? Take care, mt >...There is one decent track that would fit in with the first couple >Pan-American LP's. Speaking of which, their new LP "The River Made No Sound" on Kranky is *very* nice IMO. This label and Karaoke Kalk are both really doing it for me at the moment. Go the Ks...

[313] Harmonia Re: [313] Re: Scape One
Hello, The Harmonia stuff is not that hard to track down really. I know that Music Von is still in print in Japan. It is one of those things that comes down to tracking down specialist retailers. You might very well pay through the noise for bootlegs, but the audio can be obtained. A good retailer for this stuff in Detroit is Stormy Records. http://www.stormyrecords.com/ The Cluter material was good, but I have always had a soft spot for the Cluster and Eno records. After The Heat is an album of weird angular grooves. It is a very German, Tutonic rhythm if you know what I mean. There are echos of this album in a lot of the stiff German stuff that has been coming for the last few years. Very groovy, but not. ;) Cluster and Eno is more atmospheric. They are both good, but very different records. I still need to get my hands on Harmonia 76, which is Cluster, Michael Rother from Neu! and Brian Eno. My copy of After The Heat is a German LP on Skyy (sp Sky?) and I am not sure if it has been reissued or not. My copy of Cluster and Eno was reissued through Gyroscope on CD. One of the best musical experiences of the last couple years was seeing Roedelius play piano suites at the DIA. Very lovely soft piano music. If you ever get the chance to see him live, it is in your best interest to do so.

Cluster were the oddly named Moebius and Roedelius - and often Michael Rother of Neu! and, once upon a time, Kraftwerk. That trio were also Harmonia. Check out Harmonia's "Musik Von...", "Harmonia Deluxe". They're both effin' ace but far too tough to track down. I've heard a fair bit of really good Cluster stuff (though the fluctuating line ups of so many interconnected bands is quite confusing) and '74 was a bit of a "kosmische" creative peak. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

>Does this represent the label as a whole, or are there other releases I >should be looking out for instead? Where would you recommend I start? The music isn't completely representative, no. Although I do think the "feel" of the album is. I would say to start by checking out Jans Massel aka Kandis, Senking, Fumble, who has been the main contributer to the label. There is a Kandis CD called 1996 - 1999 that compiles the early 12"s which would be a good place to start I guess. Then there is Jorg Follert aka Wechsel Garland, Wunder, Saucer. The latest Wechsel Garland LP Liberation von... is really nice, as is the earlier Wunder CD. I'd also check Donna Regina's earlier works as well, especially the Star Ferry track and its remixes. I think the latest KK release is an album by Maerz, which I've had a quick listen to and initially found it to be almost a straight-up pop album, guitars and all - but more listening is required. There is more which I haven't mentioned, check out http://www.karaoke-kalk.net/news/news_01.htm - although its in desperate need of an update.

Re: [313] demf website
I was thinking... Detroit could capitalise on that Eminem song if they wanted to. Someone should do a techno answer record calling the shots on that Moby diss, which turns into a techno diss by default, clarifying that stuff, just knock it out, put it on the Internet, circulate some vinyls. A simple techno/electro record, catchy, with a rhyme. It would create a buzz and everybody would say, 'Hey, what's this underground techno thing?' Also people should send some CDs to Vibe, The Source, etc with a sticker "Detroit techno - too cool, too underground, for that muthaf*cker Eminem" or buy some pillows from the mall, some black silk pillow slips for them, tie a lovely CD like, say Stacey's Tomorrow, Derrick's Innovator, whatever, with a black ribbon and a red rose or something and attach a note, "If y'all gonna sleep on Detroit techno, do it in style." Bombard them with that stuff so they cannot ignore it. I think Mike Banks was onto something with the way he handled the Jaguar affair, basically creating all this press by subverting the media machine... You could take that further.

[313] Scion::: arrange and process basic channel tracks
Artist: Scion Title: arrange and process basic channel tracks Label: Tresor 200 Productinfo Scion (Pete Kuschnereit aka Substance and Rene Löwe aka Vainqueur) have arranged and reworked backcatalog tracks from basic channel (Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus) with the help of Ableton's "LIVE" audio software. The selection is focused on the more clubby tracks of the bc-projects Cyrus (Enforcement, Recall, Inversion), Phylyps (Trak I, Trak II), Quadrant (Q 1.1, Infinition), Octagon/Octaedre, is including The Climax - basic reshape and also applying atmospheric tracks as found on the Basic Channel CD (EFA CD 0-2, 1996). Most of the tracks were previously only available on (import) 12-inches. The result is not a simple mix-CD or compilation, but the connection of new software possibilities combined with Scion's experience as DJs and live act. So each individual part (= track id on CD) includes two to four tracks out of the bc catalogue. about the project: It is perhaps fitting then that Tresoris releasing a mix album in 2002-nearly a decade after Ernestus and Von Oswald debuted as Basic Channel-that features nearly the entire back catalog. In the grand techno spirit of experimentation and innovation, Chain Reaction recording duo Scion-Pete Kuschnereit (aka Substance) and Rene Löwe (aka Vainqueur)-mixed the records with Ableton's Live audio software. The resulting mix showcases just how timeless the Basic Channel records truly are, sounding just as definitive today as a decade ago. peace Garo - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[313] Metropolis @ Royal Festival Hall
Just a quick report on Jeff Mills / Metropolis at the Festival Hall in London last night Although Si Begg was orignally on the line-up it looks like he was replaced by Matthew Herbert, giving it some crazy Radioboy stylings... this was fairly quality as matthew herbert proceeded to sample/loop crazy sounds from tearing up gap boxer shorts to chucking cornfalkes around to throwing McD's burgers in a wheelie-bin ! This was followed by a healthy yet equally crazy set from super-collider. Never seen them live before but it was quite cool to seem them pulling off some cool visual effects using projectors and a variety of props while knocking out quality beats :) Jeff Mills came on after super collider to introduce the metropolis screening, and then played a quality set when the film finished. The festival hall was going fairly mental at this point - loads of people dancing on seats / rushing the stage / generally going for it :) overall a top event - tho will be interesting if the RFH agree to do something like this again ;) MaRc -- This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipient(s) named above.

Yeah Ian, there was myself, Rob, Anya, Ken and a few others. I really enjoyed Radioboy's set, very dynamic and all, but I think one would get a bit tired of him destroying stuff all the time. Thankfully he's no one-trick pony. Missed most of Super_Collider, but I didn't really dig what I heard at the end. The screening of "Metropolis" was v.good. In order to appreciate the CD, I think you have to watch the film with the music. I enjoyed it thoroughly, and it posed the question of how tough it must have been to create a soundtrack that didn't get too "Vangelis-like", i.e just lots of atmospherics.

[313] Re [313]: Metropolis @ Royal Festival Hall
Hi, got to agree it was a brilliant night. It was great to hear the Metropolis soundtrack in context, and just to see the film for the first time - very impressive for a 1926 vintage film, definitely ahead of it's time. It was good to see all of the usual UK 313 suspects (hi Nick, Alice, Anya ) and a lot of the familiar UK techno faces getting down to Jeff's set at the end of the night. If you get the chance to see Metropolis I'd recommend it. It was a very strange experience seeing it all go off at the Royal Festival Hall - the only other time I've been there was when I went to see Placido Domingo with my Mum (don't laugh ;-), I don't remember there being any stage diving and people jumping off of balconies on that occasion - and there was definitely no funk. In fact I don't even remember anyone dancing either.

Re: [313] Metropolis @ Royal Festival Hall
I made it along as well. Herbert was definatly fun. he did a similar thing at the Big Chill Festival, but also had a female vocalist and was playing live keyboards over the top of his on the fly sampling shinanigans. The best thing for me though was the man himself, jerking around like some mad Tefal scientist. Its always heartening to see someone in the flesh whose music you've been listening to for so long and to discover that they are a clearly insane :) Super Collider were pretty cool, though not really my thing. Jamie Lidell had a fairly good stage presence though and visually they were cool. I definatly agree that Mills' music sat really well with thew film, especially the parts with the workers working and then destroying the machines. Unfortunatly there were a couple of idiots a few rows in front who ignored most of the film and disrespectfully talked fairly loudly throughout it, then had the nerve to jump up and start bowing in Jeff's presence as soon as he appeared behind the decks. Shameful. I left when he started spinning and everyone stormed the stage, it was fairly comical for a while, but as a musician Mills is top notch, as a DJ i'm not really into his style. Good night though. [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [313] Metropolis @ Royal Festival Hall
My tuppeny worth: As I suggested to Toby Frith earlier, Metropolis is a film which worked intriguingly on many levels and I agree 200% that "In order to appreciate >>the CD, I think you have to watch the film with the music." You know, I don't think I appreciated *just* how true that was until it started rolling ... I rank my music by order of merit at home (anorak & proud!) and Metropolis has to go to the front of 2000 after last night ... Something else which I found striking is that you've got to see the thing re-dubbed with the Jeff Mills's Metropolis 'score' to appreciate what happens when you dub a primarily digitally-produced track to analogue format. The sound quality changes somewhat - but I don't mean interms of 'worse/better': I eman that the usual analogue effect of 'warming' sounds up, applies. It gives the whole thing a much more cinematic feel, moods and textures are enhanced and the sharp sort of 'cd' quality edge is distilled. Overall, to me, Jeff Mills is a hero for reviving a film which is so classic it's almost archetypal -especially the underlying theme - it's always shocking to remember that millions of Americans (in a different America, true) espoused the ideas which that film encapsulates, less than a century ago. That Jeff Mills did it with such panache ... it's commendable I think. Maybe one day, it will be commended. >-Original Message- >From: rob webb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 10:17 AM >To: 313@hyperreal.org >Subject: Re: [313] Metropolis @ Royal Festival Hall > > >Toby wrote: > >>I really enjoyed Radioboy's set, very dynamic and all, but I think one >>would >>get a bit tired of him >>destroying stuff all the time.

RE: [313] Metropolis @ Royal Festival Hall
Yeah the "come on Jeff" was surreal! But it did display a capacity for irony! It highlights the fact that for many of us, there's still a sort of incongruousness in listening to that kind of music, en masse, when it's not being immeadiately 'played' (djed I mean) or live. ... I'd like to see more events like that, which was effectively a different way (more contemplative? OK, just a little bit!) of appreciating the music.

When > Metropolis was showed in Amsterdam the Fritz Lang Erbe demanded that it > would be free for everybody. When Grammenos and I saw Metropolis here in NYC last summer I seem to recall Jeff saying that he intended to do a DVD release, and that he had permission to do so. Of course this all may very well have changed since last summer. The plan is/was to place both his first edit of the film (more of a Mega-mix kind of thing) along with the final one and the sountrack all on the same disc. As to the film, I have been a fan of Lang's film ever since I first saw it in my pre-teen years. When I first picked up the Metropolis "12 on Axis, while I kind of dug it, I knew I wouldn't fully appreciate it until seeing Mills' edit of the film...and I was right too;-) The NY screening wasn't quite as mad as the London one sounds, the crowd here was definitely skewed towards the filmista set as opposed to a techno crowd. We also got a question/answer session with Jeff after the film, which doesn't sound as it would have quite come off at the London screening.

This is 1930s America, happy endings and easily-comprehensible plots were virtually compulsory. Think studio system and remember political interfence/patronage (hmmm... that sounds very contemporary, 'Black Hawk Down' anyone?) Also, do you remember Frank Capra's "It's A Wonderful Life"? Remember the part when he tries out being dead and suddenly, in an ostensibly quite treakly, not to say twee film, we get 5 minutes of [EMAIL PROTECTED] near actualite: Gangsters, prohibition, McCarthyism, prostitution and hints of more international warefare ... then it all goes back to normal. Phew! Jimmy Stewart decides against it and all's well that ends well ... But, for me, the juxtuposition jarred so much that I wasn't really convinced that the ending depicted what Capra was essentially trying to say.

No, Vogel was working working what looked like some fairly ancient equipment and even did a bit of singing at one point to add some bass to Lidells vocals.

Was thinking on checking him in Manchester, but if he's going to go through the old routine I'll keep my money in my pocket I think.

er and me... :And mine too: : :> My tuppeny worth : :I thought the film was almost awful. I'm glad they cut it down. God only :knows why such a lumbering primary school plot originally required over two :and half hours. i guess its due to the fact that this was pretty early in the history of films and so there is quite a lot of 'dead air' so the film could be considerably shortened b y simply editing it a lot tighter to be more like modern films. :The feeble grasp of Marxism (in the 1920s for God's sake!) :is bad enough, never mind the saccharine "love conquers all" resolution. i would agree the ending is a little naive but why should lang have to make a marxist film simply because it is the 20s? while the film is about workers it does not mean it has to be a marxist film (in fact the fact the workers uprising was essentially a failure would suggest this was not langs intent.) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I asked Brett Dancer a few weeks ago, he said it was tickets at the door only. This was when it was still at the old venue though, I don't know if the venue change implies a ticket policy change? I presume not, since it's $20 at the start and $30 during peak, which is already a sort of 'presale' thing.

[313] Fw: Jeff Mills Peel Session
John Peel and Radio One present 10.30pm, Wednesday May 22nd Jeff Mills Exclusive Mix On the 5th of May, 1998 at the BBC's Maida Vale studios in London, John Peel hosted one of his legendary Peel Sessions. His guest on this occasion was Jeff Mills - DJ, Producer, Conceptual Artist - one of electronic music's most innovative and influential figures. >From the mid 80s, Mills carved a musical path that quickly established him as a true pioneer. From early experiences DJing on Detroit radio station WJLB as The Wizard, his mesmerising deck skills brought inspiration to a generation of musicians and performers who are themselves seen today as key figures in the birth of techno music. Later, as a founding member of seminal techno outfit Underground Resistance, his talent manifested itself through musical production. When he and fellow UR founder, 'Mad' Mike Banks, parted company, Mills' solo production career took flight and it was here that his artistic agenda became clear. There aren't many artists who you can credit as inventing the genre of minimal techno - a style so commonplace and copied these days that it's difficult to imagine a time when there it wasn't the loop-based norm. Flashback to May 1998. After Mills rocks three decks before the small gathered crowd, John Peel once again takes control of the airwaves and is virtually speechless - struggling to find words to articulate not only the sonic qualities of the last 45 minutes, but the visual spectacle not witnessed by the listeners at home. On Wednesday May 22nd, 2002, Jeff Mills returns to John Peel's show for his second ever Peel Session. Playing before a small crowd of fans and the listening public at home, this will be a very special occasion. Look out for Jeff's full-length CD, 'Actual' - released on June 3rd. This album contains new and unreleased material - forthcoming as continuing parts of the Axis-009 series, which will eventually be released as AX-009C and AX-009D vinyl instalments. Jeff mills plays the following UK dates: May 24 Tribal Sessions @ Sankeys Soap - Manchester May 25 Shine @ QBSU - Belfast May 31 Pressure @ The Arches - Glasgow June 1 Homelands @ Winchester Bowl - Winchester June 2 Redbox - Dublin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When Grammenos and I saw Metropolis here in NYC last summer I seem to recall Jeff saying that he intended to do a DVD release, and that he had permission to do so. Of course this all may very well have changed since last summer.

As to the film, I have been a fan of Lang's film ever since I first saw it in my pre-teen years. When I first picked up the Metropolis "12 on Axis, while I kind of dug it, I knew I wouldn't fully appreciate it until seeing Mills' edit of the film...and I was right too;-) The NY screening wasn't quite as mad as the London one sounds, the crowd here was definitely skewed towards the filmista set as opposed to a techno crowd. We also got a question/answer session with Jeff after the film, which doesn't sound as it would have quite come off at the London screening.

It's as much a fairy tale as Snow White; it's as far from naturalistic as one can get. You can see that as corny, or you can see it as the armature that Lang hangs his amazing visual ideas on. The editing style and visual vocabulary of silent movies is completely different from what came after; you need to get your rhythm in sync with the odd pacing to really enjoy it. I think Mills' fascination with Metropolis came out of it's futurism; Mills own preoccupation with futurism meshes nicely with it... And this is verging even MORE off topic, but most movies from the 20s and 30s seem really strangely edited to modern ideas. Last Xmas I got sucked into watching 'It's a Wonderful Life' and it dawned on me that Frank Capra was one of the very first directors to find a really fluid, brisk, editing style. Even Charlie Chaplin's silent features seem alternately slow and choppy by comparison - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Think > studio system and remember political interfence/patronage (hmmm... that > sounds very contemporary, 'Black Hawk Down' anyone?) Well, actually... When _Metropolis_ was made, Lang was still a part of the _German_ studio system, and if you've seen any of his other Weimar-era movies (_M_, _Dr Mabuse_, _Frau im Mond_), you know that there's more happening in his movies than is immediately apparent. In _Metropolis_, for instance, isn't it striking the way that the supposedly cool, rational leaders of the City of Science that is the Metropolis rely so heavily upon the occultist Rottwang? And aren't the workers _purposefully_ portrayed as easily-duped sheep? It seems to me that the ending is a lot more ambiguous than it portrays itself. The Expressionists loved to use broad strokes to hide all sorts of disturbing stuff under the surface. It's hard to see some of the themes in edited versions -- I saw a "full" cut of _Metropolis_ once, a long time ago, and was struck by how much more the movie is about than its surface story. It's a different rhythm, sure, but there's a lot to reward your time if you can adapt to it. Something that can be said about Mills' music as well. I think it's great that he chose a movie that so perfectly captures the ambiguities implicit in Detroit's history, as well as techno itself, for his first score project. I really really want to see it myself.

Even Charlie Chaplin's silent features seem alternately > slow and choppy by comparison Getting even more off-topic, I'm fairly certain that the filimic ideas born in Russia following D.W. Griffith weren't widely available/accepted by the rest of the world at that point, especially as America and Germany were very much doing their own things. The editing advancements of Lev Kuloshov and Sergei Eisenstein from the teens and twenties were the really revolutionary moments in the history of editing, and I'm fairly certain it took until at least the '30s for the rest of the world to catch up (possibly to even see these movies for the first time???), especially as the advent of sound and then color overshadowed their accomplishments. Forgive if any details are wrong - I haven't studied this stuff in a while... One of my film professors used to rant about how we don't really know what film editing could've become if it weren't for sound. So much experimentation with pacing was going on back then. I had to sit through a completely silent version of Potempkin (ie, no accompanying soundtrack at all). It was amazing how difficult it was to focus despite the innovative editing. *Any* music would have helped. :) Anything pre-1930 really takes some effort to get into, especially when we're bombarded with MTV-style editing all the time now. Think of it like trying to listen to someone's early works as they just start to fiddle with techno. :) Tristan --- http://www.mp313.com <- Music http://www.metrotechno.net <- DC techno + more http://www.metatrackstudios.com <- DC DJ/Production studios http://phonopsia.tripod.com <- Hub [EMAIL PROTECTED] <- email - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
