You use the pitch fader and notch it up and down. It takes a bit of getting used to.

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.

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.

(313) Fw: TERENCE FIXMER presents AKTION MEKANIK
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
RE: (313) vinyl burn (was re: best decks)
Another thing you have to take into consideration is what type of stylii you're using, spherical or elliptical ones.

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.

RE: (313) re: best decks
that makes a lot of sense ! It will be interesting to see how modern decks such as vestax are faring in 6+ years time for reliability and construction. -Original Message- From: Fred Heutte [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 November 2002 20:34 To: 313@hyperreal.org 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. Fred -- This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipient(s) named above.

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)
| 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! Brendan

(313) interesting stuff - KDJ, Red Planet, UR, Footwork, RjD2
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. rob _ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

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. http://www.lipsons.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/escher/ascending.html And don't try to tell me it can't be done without cheating!!! ;)

Re: (313) Random question about platter dots (was re: best decks)
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). --Mike Neil Wallace wrote: 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 45rpm :-Original Message- :From: Langsman, Marc [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] :Sent: Thursday, November 21, 2002 2:10 PM :To: 'Michael Lees'; seth redmond :Cc: 313@hyperreal.org :Subject: RE: (313) Random question about platter dots (was re: best decks) : : : The only problem with touching the plate edge is the little dimples : :super tangential random question here - but the dots on technics are meant :to indictae what pitch things are going at by which row is stationary :(because of the strobe effect of the red light) ... has anyone actually :ever :used this functionality or is there any other useful purpose ? :would be handy to know as Ive thought they were a bit redundant (although :it :looks quite cool! ) : :peace, :Marc : :--- :--- :This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the :designated recipient(s) named above.

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.
