 I am glad someone has heard of them. ;)

rantNot only heard of them, but worship them. The Sea and Cake are the
best band in the world. Period. This is the truth and I am right. ;)

They share the same drummer with Tortoise. He is called John McIntyre. He is
the best drummer in the world. Period. If you watch him drum you will know
what being possessed by rhythm is. It is scary, intense, you fear for his
body, and you feel every movement he makes for days.

They also have a vocalist named Sam Prekop who is very cool and does weird
minimalist paintings, a bassist who I know nothing about and a guitarist
named Archer Prewitt, who is the best guitarist since Johnny Marr, and makes
some funny comic books on the side. There is also a funny looking keyboard
guy who tours with them, who does crazy sh*t with a pen on a ribbon
controller.

They got their name via some 'C' in Cake / Sea and Cake confusion. They
inspire me more than anyone./rant

That Carl Craig (let alone Stereolab) is remixing them should speak tombs.
The Stereolab remix is called Tea and Cake. LOL.

Unfortunately, 'Glass' is only available from the Thrill Jockey gal on the
US tour, not for distrobution at the moment. Europe got dicked.

ok, wildly off topic and genre, and i have no idea who this band is,

Interesting observation, I thought there may be a generational divide among
DJs on Final Scratch, but I don't think there is.
For instance, I know Kevin Saunderson uses it, and is a fan, but then Marco
Bailey is not interested.
A few months ago when Francois K was out I asked him about it and he made
the interesting point that FS actually isn't that innovative in that it
doesn't really bring anything radically new to the culture, conceptually,
when that is in fact what dance music needs to evolve. I have this on tape
somewhere and should be able to find it if anyone is interested, it was a
complex argument and I can't recall it totally.
A lot of DJs are worried about computer's crashing too! But that may be
beside the point. ;)

Ps. How good are Kevin Saunderson's KS O2 on Trust The DJ and Mike Grant's
Live At Villa Rouge Pt 1? Definitely file both under 'machine music with
lottsa soul'.

I've heard the KMS TTDJ mix and it's sweet. Starts out with deep jazz-tech
of 'Gloria Muse' by Blaze but still somehow takes in Moody Recordings cuts
and Mark Broom. Sensibly paced too. However, my critical question on mx cd's
at the mo is: Is it live? There's one instance of scratching, which
doesn't really prove anything. I dunno.

Caught In The Act by Hood I'd bet more strongly on being live: Minor
mistakes, low-end boom from nudging the table, and scratching - that's the
kind of evidence you need.

Something nice to look forward to (at last)

Artist:PITCH BLACK CITY FEAT. ROBERTA SWEED
Title:Runaway
Label:MAHOGANI MUSIC

Catalog #:MAHOG 003Executive Producer: Kenneth Dixon Jr. Second release
on Kenny (aka Moodymann)'s new post-KDJ imprint. The last one, by Amp Dog
Knight, sold out quickly and even got bootlegged by an ill-advised UK
contingent (too bad we can't tell 43 that the next regime target should be
all the pasty-white British scum who bootleg Detroit's musical underground
-- the ironies are just too much to take). Another great piece of deep
vocal
house, with handclaps  humming. One-sided, but you don't necessarily need
more.

he fancy saying that face to face?

would be cool... As I know a lot of places don't carry Redsound, I can do

Had a chance to listen to this at the weekend. It just couldn't be further
from their previous stuff. If anyone heard the two tracks that were released
as a single (Myon-Neutrino and Z-Boson), well, they are easily the most
listenable of the six on there. It's like Kraftwerk's 'Radioactivity' LP
(the sleeve artwork as well as the music) put through a noise blender, and
frankly it was making my ears bleed. I just can't imagine ever voluntarily
listening to it again.

So you're saying he has got no right to be pissed off at the bootleggers?

Yes, a possible explanation for bootlegging Moodymann can be the 
bootleggers' frustration/irritation with his release policy (but it could 
just as well be that they wanted to earn a quick buck), so in that sense he 
contributed to being bootlegged. But that does *NOT* make bootlegging 
ethical behavior.

 I can't explain it Otto, I just found it pretty offensive. I'm sorry. I'm
 not really sure why. Probably something to do with being bored at work and
 making throwaway comments again. For this I apologise to the list - I do
it
 quite reguarly I suppose. I appreciate the comments aren't aimed directly
 at me of course. I just don't see where 'pasty white' comes into it.
What's
 wrong with 'bootlegging scum'? Why bring anything else into it? it only
 leads me to believe something I don't particuarly want to bring up. Please
 someone tell me - why 'pasty-white'?

 'Pasty-White British Scum' used to refer to football hooligans would be
 just as narrow minded. Football hooligans come from a diverse mix of class
 and culture.
  Even the most famous UK football hooligan isn't white, and ever heard of
 Birmingham's 'Zulu's'? A rum bunch pal.

  And - more to the point, maybe some of us British scumbags could have
 helped him out finding his bootleggers if he'd have asked - we all have an
 ear to the ground Because, I for one think it's disgusting that people
 can profit from other peoples music just via a bootleg, especially in this
 industry where money is tight and people have families to feed.

  Pasty-White British Scum? I ain't no bootlegger, but that offends.

Why?

If Pasty-White British Scum would be referring to football hooligans, 
would you be equally offended and defensive?

He's obviously not referring to all British people, so why not put on 
your

Teflon suit and let it silde. No need to take it personal.

I can't explain it Otto, I just found it pretty offensive. I'm sorry. I'm
not really sure why. Probably something to do with being bored at work and
making throwaway comments again. For this I apologise to the list - I do it
quite reguarly I suppose. I appreciate the comments aren't aimed directly at
me of course. I just don't see where 'pasty white' comes into it. What's
wrong with 'bootlegging scum'? Why bring anything else into it? it only
leads me to believe something I don't particuarly want to bring up. Please
someone tell me - why 'pasty-white'?

'Pasty-White British Scum' used to refer to football hooligans would be just
as narrow minded. Football hooligans come from a diverse mix of class and
culture.  Even the most famous UK football hooligan isn't white, and ever
heard of Birmingham's 'Zulu's'? A rum bunch pal.

 And - more to the point, maybe some of us British scumbags could have
helped him out finding his bootleggers if he'd have asked - we all have an
ear to the ground Because, I for one think it's disgusting that people
can profit from other peoples music just via a bootleg, especially in this
industry where money is tight and people have families to feed.

Okay, let's nip this one in the bud before it escalates:

Yes, music *itself* has no colour, BUT: the producers *do* have colour. As 
I think anyone will agree, skin colour and race -no matter what it is- 
influences (no, not determine, just influence) a whole host of social and 
economic factors. For quite a few producers, especially from Detroit, these 
factors are tightly connected to their music and their philosophy behind it.


Of course, from an ethics point of view skin colour and race should not 
matter, but the fact is that they do. To deny that race is an issue is a 
slap in the face for the people for whom it is a daily fact of life. The 
only solution is to acknowledge that there are differences and then move 
beyond them. Just don't deny it.


That is what KJ in his, ahem, eloquent, post was getting at.

obtusely unaware of his audience (whether he likes it or not, most of his
records are sold to white Europeans) and rather troubled that he isn't
playing records and selling records to people he feels his music is made for
-  but this is what is interesting in this whole debacle - you guys should
be investigating why Mr Dixon feels so strongly about the way he sees white
culture appropriating and exploiting black culture, rather than wasting your

RE: (313) handbags

2003-03-24 Thread Odeluga, Ken
We've all got our handbags in a twist again over this issue haven't we? We
all said we wouldn't but we've all fallen for the same ruse as last year -
someone says something controversial (to me it seems quite deliberate) and
then the bad feeling ricochets around before exhausting itself.

We all agree that the senseless bootlegging of artists whose music we love
(even if we can't really love the producers of the same!) is wrong  - so no
disagreeing with KDJ on that - but ...

We all also agree that the statements out of Mahogini go too far. I feel
though that they're pure theatre - cynical use of theatre though  - I fully
agree, and it doesn't matter what one *really* thinks once you've dared to
use such ruses, because the offence you've caused is the same. The way we
feel about politicians who choose to play the 'race card' is similar. Ask
Bill Clinton about Sistah Souljah - those who know. Those who don't, I hope
you get my drift. There's no justification. I'd have hoped someone like KDJ
would be wiser than that, no matter how embittered he might feel because of
history - personal as well as collective. But I can't expect that everyone
will try to  be as enmlightened. When you come out of Detroit, that's pretty
embittered.

All I know is that he makes great music. He's aware how dependent he is on
pasty whites for his success - example: never forget the St Albans
connection! St Albans is a small sleepy town in the south of England. You
can't get more pasty and white than that! (Hint: Peacefrog!) But he's not
prepared to pull his punches when he doesn't like something. Don't take it
personally. Maybe don't buy the music. I'd say having a damaging argument on
the list isn't going to be much use either. What we need more of are the
things which bring us together. (Good music?) It's a better way to
eventually try to sort out the things which can potentially keep as apart.

Precisely. Whoever said it, it's not fair. It wasn't wise. Unless he
actually knows that the people are white (a possibility, and even more of a
likelihood if this was a distributor, as they would be more likely to know
where the boots are coming from), it's a poorly invoked stereotype - but
it's really not worth getting upset about it. What is the impact of
black-on-white stereotyping? It's certainly nothing compared to the daily
reality of economic and political inequality that many black Americans face
every day (and yes, it is a much different thing in the states than in the
UK, although racism here is *beginning* to resemble the American variety
more with each day that black English youth look to African Americans for a
cultural model, as the assimilate-to-white-cultural-values-or-else element
of racism emerges from a recent history of nonracialised identity) - but

I never even contemplated race and techno before I joined
this damn list.  its all music, who cares what color the
artist is. I can't tell the difference by listening to it,
so who cares.  

of course, I don't think detroit was the birthing place of
techno either, but thats just flamebait here (no replies
please :P)

 I'm sorry you feel this way KJ. Music is a sound and
can't 
 been seen, so
 hence has no colour you can like it or not.
 
 As for Race is always an issue... I don't know what
colour 
 you are? It
 makes no difference to me either it's what you've got
to 
 say and do that
 interests me, not the colour of your skin.
 
 If you have a problem with colour then I can understand
why 
 race is always
 an issue to you in your world, however, please don't
accuse 
 the rest of us
 of being the same as you!
 
 It is however your right to voice your own opinion, I
will 
 choose not to
 listen to it next time, as I feel you have been misguided
in life.
 
 I hope you have a nice day though :O)
 
 Peace.

I wasn't aware that all british were pasty white or scum...I'm a kind of
pastel beige british floater, but I haven't pressed a bootleg yet, maybe
michael jackson should have tried that instead of forking out for plastic

this guy is ignorant.

he sells a record out, its bootlegged, then he makes a blanket racist
statement while commenting on the fact that the record was bootlegged?

REPRESS IT OR SHUT THE FUNK UP.

 Something nice to look forward to (at last)

 Artist:PITCH BLACK CITY FEAT. ROBERTA SWEED
 Title:Runaway
 Label:MAHOGANI MUSIC

 Catalog #:MAHOG 003Executive Producer: Kenneth Dixon Jr. Second
release
 on Kenny (aka Moodymann)'s new post-KDJ imprint. The last one, by Amp Dog
 Knight, sold out quickly and even got bootlegged by an ill-advised UK
 contingent (too bad we can't tell 43 that the next regime target should be
 all the pasty-white British scum who bootleg Detroit's musical underground
 -- the ironies are just too much to take). Another great piece of deep
 vocal
 house, with handclaps  humming. One-sided, but you don't necessarily need
 more.

 Pasty-White British Scum? I ain't no bootlegger, but that offends. Does
 he fancy saying that face to face?

(313) techno_logy

2003-03-24 Thread philip

Anyone see the newest issue of Remix magazine (Massive Attack cover)?
There are a few reactions to Chris Cowie's statements about doing away with
vinyl in favor of mp3s and Final Scratch. Not sure what issue his
statements were in - however - one letter writer was from the Detroit area
and mentioned how the philosophy behind techno music was less about blindly
embracing technological advances and more about the humanity behind the
machine. I still have the issue with the letter but not the issue that the
writer was responding to. If anyone does have it could they pass it along
as it seems Remix's website doesn't have it available.

what kind of issues do you have with this letter and these ideas ? back in
'88 derrick may says the same thing in an interview in UK mag music
technology, specifically that he and other first wave producers used mostly
fairly simple technology that was in no way the latest or state of the art
at the time, and that the ideas behind the music were more important. i
guess the name itself is problematic, but it never meant that the music was
just about using the newest technology. 

cripes that classics not classics 2 acid mix 2 is excellent - thanks so
much ! ! ! that has made my day so far ! ! !

2003-03-24 Thread Anya Stang

Before chucking mud at Dixon, and at each other,
perhaps we could have some clarification as to where
and who the statement originates from?!
The tone of the discussion on here is in part almost as
disgraceful as the statement itself - which I do consider in
fact racist.
But I don't want to jump to conclusions and judge someone
by a text snippet he may or may not have written himself.
I don't have the connections but before slagging him off
in public it might help to actually talk to him about it.

Damn, I so wish Laura were here, she'd set y'all straight
on this issue. Bless her memory.
Respect,

Anya

My thoughts exactly... can everyone chill out.  You know how the internet is.  
Unless I heard someone say something or it was a direct quote, it's all 
assumptions stacked on assumptions and false conclusions.  All subject to each 
layer of editorialization along the way.  This could all be moot if he didn't 
say/write the slur.  It's all too easy to judge people falsely and that works 
both ways.

Just because you read it on a mailing list doesn't mean someone said it/wrote 
it...  Racial slurs are horrible but ones that get falsely attributed to people 
who didn't even say them are far worse. 

I'd love it if a piece of music generated this much conversation, jee.  I'm 
more interested that there isn't an instrumental or a dub version of it... 
1-sided records have to be absolute knockouts to pull that off.  We shall see.  

If it kick it kick, period

(313) handbags vs. the animals

2003-03-24 Thread Phonopsia
So was the handbag leather ? ;)

Just got some fresh records in the mail today:

Headman : It Rough - Chicken Lips Remix - 12. Have y'all heard this? Sounds
like a lost Traxx record updated. Nice!

Joshua : Hustlin' EP - Select. This is the first release on his new label. I
know there are some fans out there. He takes great liberties with repition
as he's prone to do, but this will definitely move some arses.

Walter Jones: All God's Children - Westbound. Sweet Maurice Fulton mix. Saw
him DJ last night as well. Was somefin' else I tell ya...
