Re: (313) 8-Mile - Detroit music history

2002-11-09 Thread techno
I would like to see a comprehensive Detroit techno and Chicago house
chronology of the music year by year.
It may be more practical and cost effective to do something like this on a
digital medium like CD-ROM or DVD since you
would be covering a lot of ground with artist and record label
discography's.
Actually DVD would be ideal for this since you have the options of audio and
video and it can store a vast amount of
information.
Techno Rebels is a good book going over the history and origins of the music
but it really doesn't delve into the more
obscure Detroit techno records and labels that should not be excluded from
history.
Of coure the elitist will disagree with me on this.

(313) Legendary UK radio DJ signs to Fabric

2002-11-09 Thread Cyclone Wehner
Hmmm, when is Fabric gonna do a 313 related mix, I wonder? One from Stacey
or Mr Saunderson would be nice...

 Subject:  Legendary UK radio DJ signs to Fabric


  The December issue of the genre-defying Fabric Live release will be
 compiled by UK DJ icon John Peel. His Radio One show has been a mainstay of
 the stations roster for 30 years and John has been responsible for breaking
 more new talent than arguably anyone else in the UK. From his early days of
 his `Perfumed Garden' show on pirate station Radio Caroline (which
 broadcast from a converted fishing trawler moored in international waters
 off the coast of the UK) to his current late-night slot on the national
 broadcaster John's show has been a mish-mash of styles with one constant
 theme. Find the newest and best of any genre and give it some airplay. His
 laconic style was in direct contrast to the dire poptastic delivery of
 daytime radio (it still is, come to think of it) and millions of schoolkids
 smuggled their transistor radios under their bedsheets to drift off to
 sleep each night listening to his varied playlist of punk, psychedelia,
 mod, indie and dub reggae. For many white kids his show was their first
 taste of `Black' music in the UK circa 1970's and switched on many
 future artists (Gary Clail for one, who was to feature heavily in Peel's
 later playlists) to the raw vibe of Dub. His influence in the UK's music
 scene cannot be overstated. Daytime radio was toss, Peel's show was a
 glimpse of the underground and continues to be to this day. His track
 selection is, as expected, as eclectic a bag as you are ever likely to
 encounter this side of a back to mine session with The Avalanches. Spanning
 50 years of music it includes tracks from Don Carlos, Trouble Funk, The
 Fall, The Datsuns, MC Det, Smith  Selway, Joy Division and winds up with a
 stirring rendition of `You'll never walk alone' by the Kop Choir (He's a
 lifetime Liverpool F.C fan) and last but not least the Undertone's seminal
 `Teenage Kicks' . This is his first and last mix CD and is fitting
 testamant to a man who according to his lifelong friend and producer John
 Walters is `the single most important figure in popular music in the last
 25 years'. File under `Educational'  FABRICLIVE vol 7 Release date :

so. I went to see 8Mile yesterday (okay. first showing on opening day. I
know. I'm a geek :^). It's actually a much better movie than I expected it
to be, and it doesnt end with the typical Hollywood ending I was expecting
either. It actually breaks away from the Purple Rain formula hinted at by
the trailers. From the trailers for the movie, 8Mile looked like it would be
a rags to riches slash boy meets girls story, but instead delivers an
artist coming out of his shell and into his own story. Whatever your
feelings about Marshall are, this movie has its moments of brilliance only
when he's on screen doing what he does best: rhyming. I dare anyone not the
cheer him on at the movies finale.

that's an excellent thing to read, sean --

the media coverage of 8 Mile, even well beyond Detroit, has been 
really outrageous.  Witness the appearance of Eminem on the cover of 
last Sunday's New York Times Magazine.  The studios couldn't *pay* to 
get that kind of treatment.  And I have to say, the Times article not 
only made me want to see the movie, but my wife, who's not usually 
real interested in **anything** from the hip-hop side of the world, 
wants to go, too.


So it's good to hear a positive review here.  And it's great that the 
plot doesn't get all Hollywood.

 Steve Silk Hurley and a 90 min set from Stacey Pullen + short interviews
 with both

 The Hurley mix is ok. Dunno what happened to the skills and the records he
 had when he was part of the Hotmix 5but he drops a few chi classics and
 nice disco stuff amongst his newer club soulful palava.

 His interview is cool  talks a little about djs not having the same sort
 of skills they did back in the day and also a lil about his fallout with
 Farley Jackmaster over Love Can't Turn Around - cool dude

 The Pullen mix is 90mins taken live from a Melb gig - his usual apparently
 diverse eurotechno/house mix.

 neither are detroit really.kinda peripheral though and worthy of a
 listen

It's nice to see you can couple a good, fresh insight to a troll. 
Because you're right -- the old-school elitism of the NW side GQ 
cliques was very palpable, and has been documented well in interview 
sources.


Your reminder even makes the self-justifying marginalization of 
disagreement implicit in your original post much more bearable.


But doesn't this also mean it would be more Detroit techno of us 
not only to disagree, but also to withhold more information?


If so, I will continue to do so, and shut up now.

The funny thing is, I've never noticed any elitism in
the Detroit techno music business until I joined this
list.  It's interesting how the internet helps shape
the world...

Can we move this discussion to the 313-elite mailing list please?

I believe the server forwards messages on a wireless network inside 
Lafayette Coney Island.

(313) Elitism

2002-11-09 Thread Jason Hogans
Its good to hear that someone hasn't encountered any elitism or snobbery. I
must say that I've had my share of awkward experiences (ain't sayin' no
names!). Some people swear that everyone should know  appreciate who they
are, what they've done,  what they stand for. I came from a background of
mostly hip hop when I began mingling with tech types, hardly knew anything
about C2 when he signed me. It was cool 'cause he didn't take it all weird
or anything. I was just a dude experimenting with whatever sounds he felt
like. 

People need to make up their minds: either you love something and want to
foster an environment where other folks can discover  learn to love it
also, or you're an a**hole who wants to decrease the size of the pond in
order to be a bigger fish. I graduated high school  I like it that way!

 I also realize that for someone relatively new to this milieu, I came with
my own set of insecurities that amplified any ill vibes, and occasionally I
created or imagined them when there were originally none to be found. But
anyway, a person should never have to endure being chuckled or snarled @ for
inquiring who someone is, or what their contributions are to the tiny little
electronic music universe, sheesh!

given one piece of anecdotal information (mathers was spotted at the
