You use the pitch fader and notch it up and down. It takes a bit of
getting used to.  That said, I prefer touching the platter or using the
spindle, except when I'm playing tracks with strings.

 i just watched what dj pierre did and tried to do the same.
 
 so how are you meant to slow a record on the 1200s without touching the
 platter?

  I'm still undecided on whether the torque is better or worse. Although it
  seems logical to get as much as possible, when I tried mixing on Vestax I
  missed the ability to drop a record back into time by dragging my finger
  across the edge of the plate as I could with 1200s; although unexpectedly
  had no trouble moving back to technics again.
  I am pretty convinced that once I got out of this habit (bad for the motor
  in any case) I wouldn't mind. The only thing I am sure I would miss on
  technics is the +10 pitch control. I never had to use the +50's but I've
  often found that I was agonisingly just-out-of-range on the technics and had
  to piss about subtely speeding the other record up / down
  
  it's not the first time I've heard doubts about the build quality, but don't
  know anyone who's had them long enough for it to be an issue. their mixers
  have always been pretty nice mind.

  I got one pdx 2000 (as it was all I could afford at the time) and I
  really love it: -50% is actually really useful as use you can mix things
  at half tempo to do some weird x2s, having a reverse button is also very
  useful and yes they seem to have quite a lot more torque - which may not
  be a good thing if you play out a lot as after using vestax technics
  feel very light and you need to use a much gentler touch and yeah
  skipping is virtually non existent which I believe is due to the tonearm
  being designed to produce no lateral force perpendicular to the tonearm
  instead all the forces run parallel to the tonearm (or that's the theory
  anyway)
  Build quality wise I would say that echnics still have the edge insomuch
  as touching the deck with the needle on the record doesn't seem to make
  a noise thru the speakers whereas at high volumes if you tap the vestax
  you can hear the tapping.

Re:sounding Detroit: a comparative presentation and discussion of music
created in the Motor City
Presented by the Contemporary Art Institute of Detroit, and sponsored by
Wayne State University's Honors Program.

www.caidonline.org

Participants: Lars Bjorn, Ben Edmonds  Dan Sicko (information below)
Panel Moderator: Liz Copeland (WDET and CAID)
Saturday, November 23rd, 3-5 pm
Bernath Auditorium inside the David Adamany Undergraduate Library on the
campus of Wayne State University
Free and open to the public
Book signing to follow event

Synopsis of the idea behind Re:sounding Detroit:

Re:sounding Detroit is an attempt to discover the common points between the
various music forms to emerge out of Detroit. It's a city whose sounds have
reverberated from our own back yards to around the world: jazz, blues,
Motown, rock, electronic and beyond - earning Detroit the reputation of
being an acclaimed music city. What are the factors that have given Detroit
this common art form across generations, expressed in such varied and unique
ways?

With the aid of sound and visuals, each presenter will examine the
relationship between music and culture (and subculture) applicable to the
era. The forum will conclude with a comparative, mediated discussion between
all participants.

Participant Information:

Lars Bjorn. Lars Bjorn is a Professor of Sociology at the University of
Michigan-Dearborn campus, as well as author of Before Motown: A History of
Jazz in Detroit, 1920-60 (University of Michigan Press 2001). He has
published From Hastings Street to the Bluebird: The blues and jazz
traditions in Detroit (Michigan Quarterly Review 1986) and is the author of
numerous articles on jazz in Detroit. Joining Bjorn from the audience will
be his collaborator on Before Motown, Jim Gallert.

Ben Edmonds. Originally from the New England area, Ben Edmonds has been a
Detroiter since 1968. He's since become an accomplished music journalist, as
an editor for the legendary Creem magazine up until today's position of US
editor for the UK-based Mojo magazine - while contributing to several
publications in between including Rolling Stone, New Musical Express  The
Los Angeles Times. Edmonds has written liner notes for many, including the
relatively recent reissue of Love's Forever Changes and the Deluxe Edition
of Marvin Gaye's What's Going On, which will be acknowledged with the ASCAP
Deems Taylor Award presented at Lincoln Center in New York this December.
Edmonds is the author of What's Going On (Mojo Books/Canongate 2001), an
unauthorized biography of Marvin Gaye.

Dan Sicko. A Detroit native, Dan Sicko has been writing about techno music
for over ten years. In fact, techno music inspired him to write in the first
place, ultimately making him change his profession in 1996 and take on
copywriting and advertising full-time. But he never stopped writing about
music, his articles appearing in publications such as Wired, Rolling Stone,
Urb and his own online techno magazine Reverb. In 1997 Sicko proposed the
idea of a book about the history of techno - the first from an American (not
to mention Detroit) perspective. Publisher of Urb magazine Raymond Leon
Roker has said about Sicko's book Techno Rebels (Billboard Books) published
in 1999, Dan Sicko demonstrates an acute awareness of the racial, cultural,
and historical implications of the late twentieth century's digital
soundtrack, exploring it with a depth that few have captured in print.

Media sponsors for LINK include WDET-FM 101.9 Detroit Public Radio and Metro

(313) Fw: TERENCE FIXMER presents AKTION MEKANIK

2002-11-21 Thread Tom Robbins/Magic Feet
ARTIST: VARIOUS
COMPILED BY: TERENCE FIXMER
TITLE: AKTION MEKANIK
LABEL: MUSIC MAN
FORMAT: CD / 2 X 12
CAT NO: MMCD 021
RELEASE DATE: 17 JANUARY 2002

Featuring classic 'EBM' (electronic body music) and Nu-Beat tracks from
Nitzer Ebb, The Normal, Fad Gadget, Front 242, Crash Course In Science,
Skinny Puppy, DAF, Liaisons Dangereuses and a new exclusive track from
compiler (and Gigolo) Terence Fixmer, Aktion Mekanik brings together long
lost/forgotten classics from the 80's Belgian Nu-Beat scene, whilst
highlighting their influence on modern electronic composition.

With tracks such as The Normal's 'Warm Leatherette' being covered by Chicks
On Speed or bootlegged by Richard X and DJ Hell covering No More's 'Suicide
Commando' and making the second half of his recent
'Electronicbody-housemusic' mix CD a homage to old and new versions of
'EBM', 'Aktion Mekanik' is a timely reminder of how we used to play.

One such current producer who certainly used to play is Planete Rouge man,
Terence Fixmer who has been fusing EBM with modern techno ever since
'Electrostatic' launched his life as a Gigolo in the late 90s. Born in
Lille, on the Northern borders of Belgium it was at the tender age of 15
that Fixmer fell headfirst into the burgeoning EBM scene just across the
border, where himself and fellow friends at Ghent's Music Man label
fanatically followed bands such as Front 242, Klinik, DAF and Nitzer Ebb and
frequented Belgian clubs such as Boccaccio and Skyline.

I made this compilation as a personal journey and to remember the well
respected electronic artists which are in someway our modern techno
forefathers, states Fixmer. I made it just because this is the music of my
heart and nothing to do with any 80s trend.

With Fixmer having recently remixed Nitzer Ebb's classic 'Join In The Chant'
for Novamute and now currently working with their singer Douglas MacCarthy
on a new project, Aktion Mekanik neatly brings his EBM adventure full
circle. Furthermore, look out next year for Crash Course In Science's never
before released only album from the early 80's vaults set for a debut airing
on Music Man some 20 years later.!

Terence Fixmer plays live at ElectrooVoodoo, Liverpool on December 13th.
More info: www.terencefixmer.com

Nitzer Ebb - Warsaw Ghetto
Nitzer Ebb, (strongly influenced  by DAF) were, alongside  Front 242, at the
forefront of the EBM sound in the late 80s, with classics like Let Your
Body Learn  Join in The Chant. Warsaw Ghetto, taken from their second
twelve inch (1985) is a more obscure track by them.

Crash Course In Science - Cardboard Lamb
Hailing all the way from Philadelphia, CCIS, only released one twelve inch
from which this track is taken! Numerous covers have followed (check Pete
Tong's essential anthem BUCCIBAG), but here in it's original glory.

No More - Suicide Commando
Indie Classic from 1981, got remixed by DJ Hell  Echopark in 1998 as a
taster for Hell's Munich Machine album.

The Normal - Warm Leatherette
Daniel Miller's classic, Mute records first releaseIt was in l978, right
after Punk had started. The music at the time was quite unusual -- apart
from a few groups like Kraftwerk.

Fad Gadget - Coïtus Interruptus
Taken from Fad Gadget's first album Fireside Favourites, this sets a
benchmark for further Fad Gadget anthems like Ladyshave  Collapsing New
People!

The Klinik - Hours + Hours
Belgian electronic duo THE KLINIK started out in 1984, focusing  their early
efforts on the international home-taping circuit.But through their releases
and remarkable live-gigs, which blend their haunting music with splendid and
intriguing video footage, the twosome (Dirk IVENS - Voices and Marc
VERHAEGHEN - Electronics) gradually built up a steady following and a
reputation that stretched beyond the confinement of the Living room
studio. Hours + Hours is taken from their first album Sabotage (1985).

Daf - Verschwende Deine Junged
The core of DAF are Gabi Delgado-Lopez and Robert Gorl. They met in
Dusseldorf during the punk movement in 1977 whilst  Gabi was singing in
local punk bands and Robert finishing his formal musical training. They went
on to release seminal tracks like Der Mussolini  Brothers... This track is
taken from the 1981 album Gold Und Liebe.

The Invincible Limit - Push!
First there was Invisible Limits as a band, Thomas Lüdke being a member,
programming the sequences to such classics as Love is a Kind of  Mystery
and Devil Dance. Thomas then left, chose Invincible Limit as his new solo
project,  and made Push in 1986 (Last Chance Records).

Crash Course In Science - Flying Turns
Hailing all the way from Philadelphia, CCIS, only released one twelve inch
from which this track is taken! The flip from the one previously  mentioned.

Liaisons Dangereuses - Mystere Dans Le Brouillard
Founded by Beate Bartel  Chris Haas in 1981, releasing  onlycassettes ...
this track was taken from a 7inch single released on Mute records in 1982 as
a b-side from the also seminal Los Ninos Del

Another thing you have to take into consideration is what type
of stylii you're using, spherical or elliptical ones. I really love
my vinyl so I don't scratch, I try not to touch it, I use a carbon
fibre brush and elliptical stylii which I replace regularly.

 I've found that you always get this with certain qualities of vinyl,
 except with Shure's wonderful M447s, which I can't praise enough. The
 villains of the piece are definitely the Stanton 500als, which
 basically cane vinyl in a horrifying way - though there's always
 those little battery powered bus/car things that drive round your
 record with a little speaker on their back, don't ever use these if
 you want to listen to the record again.
 
 Through collecting old vinyl I've noticed that the quality of the
 vinyl varies a lot with economic circumstances. e.g. during the 70's
 and the oil crisis pressings became a lot thinner and peeps came up
 with silly ideas like RCA's shonky 'Dynaflex' pressings. These thin
 pressings, or worse still the ones pressed on adulterated vinyl, seem
 to be particularly prone to needle burn.
 
 A bit OT I'm afraid (especially for a first posting - please be
 gentle) but Richard started it.

12's are my faves too bu to be honest thats becoming less the case nowadays
- many places are having the vestax fitted - in london alone loads of the
major places have all had vestax refits - cargo, ministry, fabric, home

 Subject: RE: (313) re: best decks
 
 
 I know, I've given this speech before.
 
 It's more or less an accident of history that the Technics 
 1200 founded
 the modern DJ age and continues to be the standard turntable.  It's
 certainly been put to far more different kinds of uses than 
 the designers
 could ever have imagined.
 
 The real reason is that, overall, it is a marvel of 
 mechanical engineering.
 There's a lot of talk about torque and how the Vestax design meets or
 exceeds the Technics, but what you don't hear about is that delicate
 balance between torque, starting speed and platter weight 
 that distinguishes
 the 1200 from all other turntables.  This is what makes the 
 1200 a musical
 instrument, at least in a secondary way, as compared to a mere audio
 reproduction device.
 
 The 1200 has its share of faults -- everyone hates the 
 placement of the
 on-off switch, and the little pop-up light, which requires something
 approaching knee surgery to fix, is useful but the lights are 
 difficult
 and expensive to replace.  I've found almost universally 
 that, when pitched
 off the 0% locked pitch position, they spin just a little faster after
 being stopped and restarted.  And rotation speeds are very consistent
 over most of the pitch range but vary noticeably once you get 
 above +/- 6%.
 
 And don't even get me started about how they rip off customers on
 replacement parts like covers.  Last I checked, it was $45 
 per HINGE on
 those covers!
 
 The 1200 has a number of clever design features that go 
 almost unnoticed.
 And there is a consistency of materials and construction that's always
 evident.  Even beat-up club 1200s are pretty reliable.  
 
 The 1200 was first marketed to some degree as an audiophile turntable,
 since it evolved out of the high-end Technics line of the day.  It was
 hardly then and certainly not now a true audiophile unit.  Just the
 rumble figures alone would scare the average reader of Absolute Sound.
 But we're not here to talk about playing 180 gram virgin 
 vinyl on $6,000
 turntables.  You laugh!  But take a look:
 
 http://www.audiocircuit.com/9150-turntable-circuit/Commercial/
Nottingham%20Analogue-
NOT/9150CMNOT.htm

Besides, the 1200 rumble adds the distinctive je-ne-sais-quoi to a
really good bassline playing on a Really Big Sound System.

I've seen 1200s that ran daily for 10 years without a hitch, although
you can tell the pitch controls are ral loose!  I've seen them
indoors in all kinds of situations including on stages that bounced
like trampolines, outdoors on the beach and in the hills, and they are 
almost if not quite indestructible.  

I've seen DJs do all kinds of crazy things with 1200s, not just
backspins, platter twists and what have you.  Not even Rotator plumbed
the depths of what a 1200 can do.  If you watch enough DJs over the years, 
you'll be surprised at how many different ways there are to play.  There 
is great versatility built into its somewhat simple and otherwise 
nondescript design.  

I'm not always a believer in the standard equipment in a given field.  
I use the Opera browser instead of Internet Explorer, and have never worn 
a pair of Nike shoes even though Portland where I live is Niketown.

But the 1200 deserves its place as *the* standard DJ turntable.

OK, not learning my lesson the first time; the Mac Vs PC of the DJ world...

for those people who mix using a combination of pitch and mere digits (but 
touch their records enough to make pitch-only near impossible), and who have 
used them for an extended period of time; do the vestax cause any 
significant problems due to the fact that they don't slow down much when 
touched (i.e. 'cause you can't use the edge of the plate / spindle)?

(313) interesting stuff? (was RE: (313) re: best decks)

2002-11-21 Thread Brendan Nelson
| So, anyone got any interesting stuff to tell us or what?!

Err... 

The Artcyclopedia (http://www.artcyclopedia.com) describes minimalism
as 'a style of art in which objects are stripped down to their
elemental, geometric form, and presented in an impersonal manner'.
Robert Hood's Minimal Nation EP (Axis, 1994) is as pure as it gets,
discharging solidly 3-dimensional shapes into the sonicsphere. Listening
to Rhythm, you meditate on its building blocks of melody and rhythm, and
find in them sonic paradoxes worthy of Escher's drawings. 

From the underlying premise that music exists independently of
humankind, minimalism attempts to strip away subjectivity and assume
natural forms, thus attaining ultimate truth and ultimate beauty. This
naked, quantum truth turns out to be more complex than the higher-order,
multi-layered introspections fashioned by the ultra-conscious mind. A
(hastily concocted but purpose-serving) existential riddle for you: what
is a more complex concept - a piece of wood or a house built of pieces
of the same wood?

(from http://www.sagant.freeserve.co.uk/jukebox302.htm )

Maybe not interesting, but hopefully a bit of a diversion!

(313) Amsterdam 2nd hand shops

2002-11-21 Thread alex . bond
Memo from Alex Bond of PricewaterhouseCoopers

 Start of message text 

I'm in Amsterdam at the end of the month and was wondering if any 313ers
knew of any good second hand record shops there?

I've been to that Concerto, the one in the Leidesplein on 2 floors (can't
remember the name), a couple of tiny little ones in the Jordaan.

Anyone know of anymore that are worth a visit? I'm prepared to get on the
train if it's a good one. A while ago someone was telling me of a shop in
Utrecht that loads and loads of 12s that were all 3 guilders, but that was
a while ago. Anyone know if it exists? Also has anyone been to Black Rhythm
Records? Is that worth a visit?

Looking for old 12's. (Disco/Soul/Funk/Italo/Electronic etc) or
house/techno stuff. Junk shops etc would be good..

Many Thanks,

Alex

(313) interesting stuff - KDJ, Red Planet, UR, Footwork, RjD2

2002-11-21 Thread rob webb

Alex:


So, anyone got any interesting stuff to tell us or what?!


non-313:

the RjD2 album, Deadringer, is worth investigating if you're remotely into 
hiphop.  picked it up on Saturday on a whim, and mighty fine it is too!


313:

the new Moodyman 12 is quite nice.  i can take-or-leave much of KDJ's 
stuff, but i heard some samples of I'm Doing Fine online this week and i 
think it's a definite maybe. ;)


some interesting goings-on at Submerge.  looks like there's a new Red Planet 
on it's way - #11 Revenge of the Wolf - plus a Red Planet associated book 
Understanding the Connection between Black and Aboriginal Peoples.  
there's also something which looks suspiciously like another 
reissue/replacement release on UR - Dark Energy Dark Paradise 12 (listed 
as UR-031, which used to be the Dark Energy doublepack!).


if you're into wicked Detroit-style (electro and techno-tinged) house then 
keep your eyes peeled for a label called Footwork Records.  the label's 
London-based, but the guys who run it are closely affiliated with Detroit's 
IS12 collective.  due out sometime around now is an ep from Detroit's 
AudioMatriX, House Ballads Part Two (Part One was produced by Mark Flash 
and was the 2nd ep on Footwork), and an ep by Louis Digital, The Crack-Up. 
 i think Groovetech have some samples, so head down there and have a listen 
if you're interested.


...and that's about it for now.

for those people who mix using a combination of pitch and mere digits

who have used them for an extended period of time; do the vestax cause 
any significant problems due to the fact that they don't slow down much 
when touched (i.e. 'cause you can't use the edge of the plate / spindle)?


Again I don't know exactly how the new decks feel but I have no problem 
with the old vestax, I use spindle and plate edge *and* pitch. All works 
fine. Pitch controlling with vesax is easier, pitch fader is quite 
resistant and has a real fluid motion.


The only problem with touching the plate edge is the little dimples

http://www.vestax.co.uk/flash/2002/turntablesPDX2000.htm

You touch it and the record slows down with a 'wobbly' sound, technics 
have the little circles which makes for a much smoother slow down.


Hope this helps

Re: (313) Random question about platter dots (was re: best decks)

2002-11-21 Thread Michael Lees
On my old decks (sound lab) the red light and dots were a godsend. The 
O% point could be adjusted with the turn of a screw. The 0% seemed to 
move a lot by itself so to 're-zero' the pitch I'd set the pitch to 
zero, turn the screw and watch the dots until they stayed still, if the 
dots moved one way too fast, other way too slow.


I think the big dots should stay still at 45 and the small at 33 1/3 
(but it may be the other way round, it's been a while since I've had to 
worry about that).

There is a method of using the dots to match your 2 decks.  Essentially, +/-

RE: (313) Random question about platter dots (was re: best decks)

2002-11-21 Thread Gary . Girard

Its just because the speed of the turntable varies slightly and so the
dots are used to tell when it is going at exactly 33 1/3rm or 45rp

How do you tell though? Do the dots become stationary when the turntable is
exact?

Thanks for the two links Alex/Steve.

Soon as it arrives, I'll throw a few snippets of the tracks up, so you can
see what you've let me in for.

Thanks again. :)

 Here's a spotters challenge...

 Cabaret Voltaire : Body and Soul (CD or LP)  TWI 944  (Les Disques du
 Crepuscule, 1991)

 Used to have a copy on tape, but you can guess the rest. If
 anyone knows of
 a shop that's got a copy in, can they mail me URL or a mail addie
 to get in
 touch with them. Having problems getting hold of it, although I
 didn't think
 it was as rare as rocking horse sh*t.

 Not to mention fixing 1200s which have been damaged when +16'd...


I found a use! I pitched my tables back 'n forth from +8 to +16 a number of
times over the years, but never really knew if I could trust my suspicions
of drift on the tables or not - it just seemed like it only happened rarely,
which didn't make a lot of sense - more likely my ears were off. I've played
on tables that dip and dive severely, and that was not the case on mine - I
just wanted to know for sure if I could always trust my tables and couldn't
figure out how I could determine this. But then I remembered the strobes
[lightbulb]!

I figured, if I plopped the slider at 3.33 and 6.66 and the strobes actually
matched up with the dots as they were supposed to, and there was no
noticeable drift, it must mean that the speed of the tables are not
slipping. I think it very unlikely that the strobes would flash at an exact
same 'wrong' rate as the dip in speed on the tables. So... if you wanna know
if your tables still work right or if you're just crazy, check the strobes.
Also, you can measure how faithful they are to +/-8 by seeing how far off
they are from 0, 3.33 and 6.66. I was happy to find mine were perfect after
8 years of (ab)use.

This is also good for proving the durability of your Technics should you
ever need to sell them.

(313) samplespotter

2002-11-21 Thread Neil Wallace

Samplespotter.com seems to have dissapeared. Have I got the wrong url or
alternatively does anyone know of an alternative database where you can
search for an artist/song and see who has sampled it or vice versa

RE: (313) interesting stuff - Footwork, Stuff

 ...the first ep is a various artists ep full of totally crazy chit, 
 from drexciyan electro to wigged out japanese hiphop-idm, 
 straight-up rb remixes(!?) 

YES!

..they clearly dont care about making genre records 

GOOD. As many smart labels have figured out the deepest headz are brave enough 
to handle the switch-ups in tempos and styles within a single label (Planet E, 
also to some degree also Rush Hour, Archive, Kindrid Spirits, Delsin, etc. to 
name a few.  Also other Glasgow labels are on a roll, how about their other 
great genre-bending labels like Iridide and Emoticon too?)

this is awesome production... do they have a US distributor?

peace,

i dunno, it's only 500 copies (and 5 different metallic shades of 
vinyl..o), and they suggest getting it from rub-a-dub or boomkat...


maybe try emailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] for more..
