(313) Monolake Atlantic Waves
Anyone see this in action yet? Atlantic Waves is an improvised network music performance by monolake and deadbeat. A special application, the Atlantic Waves Interface III, makes it possible to create muisc together in realtime while being thousands of miles appart. The Atlantic Waves Interface utilises a beautiful graphical surface which is projected during the performance. This interface is simple enough to be controled in real time but allows for building up complex musical structures. It also allows the audience to follow all actions and to become part of the process. Every sound generated has a visual representation and all interaction with the software is displayed. The result is a unique and constantly evolving and changing piece of audio-visual art, created simultaniously in two different locations on this planet. This radical new concept of internet performance provides the bridge between club and fine arts, between computer graphics and music, between installation and improvisation. http://www.monolake.de/atlantic.html

Re: (313) Monolake Atlantic Waves
I didn't notice any audience interaction, but I wasn't in that room the whole time. I've always thought it'd be fun to make one's filter/cutoff/etc knobs community property, but in that scenario you'd have to accept the possibility that crowd could ruin your sound. :D [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: What about the audience interaction bit they describe?

Re: (313) Underated Producers
Tell you what. This got me thinking. (Yeah, yeah, I know that doesn't happen too often) Everyone bangs on about Tiesto etc. But bringing the conversation round a little, I noticed that the now famous Dj Mani in his top 10 list of labels name checked Intec (Carl Cox's label), and 2 of Billy Nasty's labels in his top 10. Now. This obviously proves DJ Mani is a total no-brainer, but also on another level too. If you ask me, at least with the likes of Tiesto etc you know where you stand. He's a popular trance dj, and does his thing to the masses. Carl Cox on the other hand, is a complete band-wagon jumper, who changes his micro style of music every few years or so to keep in with the kids. I forget how many times he's done it, but jesus. Billy Nasty is the same. Their current little thing is so called 'techno' (that's hard dance music to you and me) and f**kwits like Dj Mani are lapping it up and spending their money on it. There's 101 other worthy UK labels he could spend his money with, and has been for the last 15 years. Shame Dj Mani ignored all these and chose to spend his money with the jokers. He speaks of battles etc, and boycotts, but flippin 'eck, all us here in the UK have been battling against these jokers using the name techno from the year dot. It's nothing new. These clowns ruined that word 'techno' (and had done by about '92), such is which we can't use it anymore. I don't use it anyway, do you? Hmm, sorry, more ramblings. And if you guys from Renegade Rhythm come back with a story like "well, me and the advent were having tea and scones and they say Carl Cox is alright", I'm gonna scream.

Re: (313) Underated Producers
These clowns ruined that word 'techno' (and had done by about '92), such is which we can't use it anymore. I don't use it anyway, do you? well i don't either as people think of 'technotronic' ("techno techno techno techno") and people "dancing to car alarms" when you mention techno as the music you're into. shame, but what can u do? not sure nasty and cox are to blame for this really tho. if asked i say the music i'm into (or dj) is house and electro. easier that way :) robin...
Re: (313) Underated Producers
LOL. I used to know Carl when he lived with Maxine and sold rave tickets out of his place in Brighton. He was the same then. He'd take bookings for techno nights, raves, house nights, garage nights, jungle nights, death metal nights (well maybe not). Not that I especially have a problem with this, but its just that because he tried to span every genre he never got too deep into any one of them and so all his sets seem to represent the blandest of whatever particular genre hes playing. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 1:47 PM Subject: Re: (313) Underated Producers > Tell you what.

Re: (313) Funk Faker
as Marsel said a few months back, this is indeed an excellent release. can see why they didn't bother with vinyl, it's a cd kinda thing I reckon. but, yeah, there's deffo a couple on there you could play out, so hope there's a 12 or something! overall, it reminded me very much of a bluesey kind of version of St Germain. not sure if thats a good description though. _ - End of message text Is your business ready for the new era of accounting? http://www.ifrs.co.uk This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

(313) Is this the new Swayzak sound?
Weird - I just saw an advert on tv last night for a phone - there is a guy on a bullet type train and he's walking from car to car. He flips open his phone and it says 'SWAYZAK' on the screen. He then turns around and there is a full glam/garage rock band behind him. Drummer, guitarist, lead singer, etc. Very fuzzed out overdriven guitar rock style. The band was looking quite glam in purple suits and sh*t. Like a very bright version of the Hives. the music was nothing like I've heard from previous Swayzak releases. It sounded nothing like the great deep dub house/techno from "Snowbaording...", "Himawari", or even the last electrocash one. It was all heard-it-before garage glam rock crap. Can this be the same Swayzak?! MEK

(313) "I don't get no respect"
M Comic Rodney Dangerfield Dies at Age 82 Oct 5, 7:22 PM EST Rodney Dangerfield, the bug-eyed comic whose self-deprecating one-liners brought him stardom in clubs, television and movies and made his lament "I don't get no respect" a catchphrase, died Tuesday. He was 82. Dangerfield, who fell into a coma after undergoing heart surgery, died at 1:20 p.m., said publicist Kevin Sasaki. Dangerfield had a heart valve replaced Aug. 25 at the University of California, Los Angeles, Medical Center. Sasaki said in a statement that Dangerfield suffered a small stroke after the operation and developed infectious and abdominal complications. _ On the road to retirement?

Re: (313) Is this the new Swayzak sound?
It is. I went to Japan lately for work and hung out with those guys at a festival I covered. They're not selling out, they're very underground in ethos. They didn't do the ad without thinking and were worried about appearing in it but deemed it a worthwhile outlet since it's hard for them to get exposure elsewhere. They do have a live band type set up now and one of the guys doesn't tour. They have a singer. I think with the changes over the albums they just don't want to get in a stylistic box. They were bewildered with the electroclash tag for Dirty Dancing, saying they'd always done electro. I do remember them playing here years ago and it was very different to what they're doing now. The only small thing I have is if you want to do vocal music you need a good song - a hook - of some kind or the music is in limbo and they need to develop that. Jeff Mills once explained to me and a promoter here that even a techno producer has to have a hook, all music does, and that stuck with me. Hopefully I will post the Swayzak interview soon. > Weird - I just saw an advert on tv last night for a phone - there is a guy > on a bullet type train and he's walking from car to car.

Re: (313) Underated Producers
Carl Cox is a populist DJ, he doesn't pretend to be anything else. I heard his fifth anniversary InTec mix-CD and was surprised at the quality of the label, classic Detroit sounds. Incidentally he has just completed a volume in DMC's Back To Mine series which is very diverse. Surprised he has no 313 classics on there, but he has Diana Ross, Style Council, Loose Ends, 808 State and Leftfield. He's also bought a crib in Melbourne near old pal Eric Powell, and there have been rumours of a residency, but I digress! > LOL.

Re: (313) This IS the new Swayzak sound
I picked up the LP sampler at the weekend, I didn't listen to it completely but have been a fan for a while so assumed it would be okay. I have to say I think Bergerie is okay, it's fairly interesting. Another Way which I think they've released as the A-side is really quite poor. I didn't mind some of the vocals on dirty dancing (car crash was bad) and the vocals on himawari were excellent, but the vocals on this one are really not nice. I think they're sound has taken a real step back, I still think himawari and snowboarding sound fresher than Dirty Dancing and they're most recent efforts. I really think they made a mistake when they stopped the work with theorem, the thx stuff and slave to the hard drive were all excellent. I've listened to the rest of the album and it may just be me but it sounds to me like an underworld album from 5-6 years ago. I understand what they're saying about the electroclash comments but why does all their artwork/style come across in a very electroclash manner?

Re: (313) Is this the new Swayzak sound?
Music isn't selling as it used to, period. The market is in transition and no one knows where it's heading. I think it's some kind of technological revolution that we don't completely understand as of yet. There does seem to be a trend for underground acts to set themselves up as bands, get a singer, and make something more organic, perhaps less 'faceless'. I don't think it's necessarily cynical as after all most grew up with bands like Depeche Mode or whatever (many techno types here are old goths, weirdly, who are rediscovering their love of bands like The Cure) and that's a genuine avenue of exploration for a maturing producer. But at the same time I hear a lot of tracks with vocals, not songs, and when the music is like that it's not especially memorable, doesn't stand out, doesn't click. I'm not sure what I'm trying to say - I'm not a slave to pop structures, but... I think Technasia make brilliant techno 'songs' with hooks and the vocals and everything - superb. The songs with Charles Siegling and their instrumentals are first-rate. I am sure with a different marketing strategy (and some money for videos, ha ha) they could have become a techno Daft Punk without changing their music at all. -- >From: "/0" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Cyclone Wehner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "313 Detroit" <313@hyperreal.org> >Subject: Re: (313) Is this the new Swayzak sound? >Date: Thu, 7 Oct 2004 2:13 AM > > techno isnt selling how it used to.

Re: (313) techno isn't selling
I have heard this so often - and consistently - from such a cross section that it would be impossible to dispute. The facts speak for themselves. So many distributors have done under, for a start. I think most if not all labels have tracked sales so if you were really determined to verify it beyond hearsay then you would be overwhelmed with evidence. ;) You could chart sales of pop albums - where it's easier to ascertain and access info from Billboard - and work your way down to vinyl and specific genres. It would be interesting for someone to do, I guess, if they had the patience for stats! May be depressing though! > I keep hearing this from people - artists, record labels, record stores, > etc. but is there any source for stats?

re: (313) techno isn't selling
How about the fact that Nemesis distribution has gone out of business? How about the fact that there's never any more than two people in the dance room at the record stores? How about the fact that the wholesale price on an import is over 8 USD? The stores are only doing techno orders once every three weeks or so (at a lot of places, I know not *all* of them) and allocating their funds to things like hip-hop. I was in the shop the other day, and strangely enough, the whole rap/hip-hop/r&b section was booming with customers... something I haven't seen in the house/techno area of the store for QUITE some time. Techno definately isn't selling atm.

re: (313) techno isn't selling
yes, as I said, it's not that I don't believe it - I'm just curious to see if there are stats/charts/bar graphs/whatever in any trade magazines. from what I read recently - vinyl is actually becoming popular again, very very slowly, but still... by the way, there's many reasons distribution companies go out of business besides direct result of drop in sales at the retailers. Nemesis could have been managed poorly from within on all sorts of levels. They might have grown out of touch with the changes in the US dance music market. Not saying that's the reason they've closed but it's just an example of things that happen. It's not always 1+1=2. Same goes for record retailers. They open and close more often than distributors I would guess.

Re: (313) Underated Producers
> And if you guys from Renegade Rhythm come back with a story like "well, me > and the advent were having tea and scones and they say Carl Cox is > alright", I'm gonna scream. Alex, 1. What's your problem with Tea. I thought the British like Tea. I'm personally a coffee drinker, but I don't personally have any problem with Tea. What's yours? 2. So how many guys from Renegade Rhythms have you been speaking to on this subject? From my count , it was only 1 person. So where does the plurality come in? 3. Just curious, because your' statement above didn't make sense to me. Actually, I think it's a common Logical Fallacy that you are displaying. A+B=E C+D=E Therefore C+B=E Here's how it plays out: Mani + Carl Cox = Like RenegadeRhythms + Mani = Like therefore Renegade Rhythms + Carl Cox = Like This is called the Fallacy of "False Analogy". "In an analogy, two objects (or events), A and B are shown to be similar. Then it is argued that since A has property P, so also B must have property P. An analogy fails when the two objects, A and B, are different in a way which affects whether they both have property P." Unfortunately Logic doesn't work that way. And the resulting statement is FALSE. If Advent likes Carl Cox (not saying that he does, that was the Alex's words), that's his perogative. It's not going to stop my ears from hurting when I hear Carl's music and mixing. So go ahead and scream, but I've felt nothing from Carl Cox for over 10-12 years (as long as I've known about him). If continue with your logic, I might as well end, that you are British. The British likes the Spice Girls. Therefore you like the Spice Girls. Doesn't make sense does it? Cheers Dave

Hi Michael, I really don't think these statistics are available. In the US, these are kept by the RIAA (http://www.riaa.org) and internationally it is keptby International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (http://www.ifpi.org). But they don't break it down into Genre's. And I'm sure that you're average small "mom and pop" record store isn't reporting their sales to the RIAA. So you have a breakdown. The only people that really know in the Techno world are the artists, record labels, distributors, and record stores that are seeing that they aren't selling as much now as what they were. If I'm wrong, please point me to these statistics, as I and many other people would love to see the break down of Dance Music sales over the last 10 years. Cheers... Dave

(313) US record distribution
Alright this might seem daft, but I am having a hell of a time finding good techno right now, even online. I have been looking for a US distributor that sells to individuals that would have things like Dan Bell's recent work, Non stop djs, dj rush/pro jex, shake's stuff, new puzzlebox stuff, or other slightly eclectic (but not really)stuff. You all are makin me jealous of all the records that you keep writing about that I am just not seing out here in san franciscos shops. I find stuff used or from individaul online shops like submerge/big50, is there a one stop -that has some back stock and lets' you listen ? Thanks for any advice tom
(313) Claude's Laptop stolen
One or more unknown persons stole his Apple Notebook in the night between 1st and 2nd October and inflicted him a massive loss. During or after his gig in the "Prison Club" Straßkirchen/Germany somebody of the people in the club stole his Notebook. On the Apple Notebook are all tracks wich he requieres urgent to play on his next gigs, likewise all his private and business information, too. This is an unbelievable loss in financial and private respect. Maybe all following gigs have to be canceled, if the Notebook will not be recovered.

We seem to be having this discussion fairly regularly. It should be pointed out that not all stores/labels/distributors are suffering, in fact some are growing, and some of them at a fast rate. By all means these are the exceptions to the rule, but I think it can be too easy to focus on the majority in these discussions. If anything, I find it difficult to find a lot of new releases that I'm really after, and that to me spells a healthy underground market. It's unquestionable that most techno labels are not doing as well as they could be and that distribution choices have dwindled, but other genres don't suffer as much. I'd be really surprised if labels like Stones Throw, KDJ, Warp, Rephlex, Peacefrog, IIWII, JCR, Ghostly, the Goya camp, etc are hurting at the moment, and I'd say most of that health is attributed to their consistent quality alone. Stores like Piccadilly, Juno and Vinyl Junkies are growing fast because of their online presence and Rub-A-Dub is set to join them. Groovetech seems to be the counter-example to this, but you could argue they stretched themselves a little too thin from the moment they tried to run three stores and dominate the online listening markets. At least in Europe, it may be that you won't be able to compete without being online (which doesn't mean you can't have a shop as well, but you know what I mean). Still, I'd like to see the stats if they existed. Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

re: (313) techno isn't selling
[EMAIL PROTECTED] said in response to Matthew Mangold: yes, as I said, it's not that I don't believe it - I'm just curious to see if there are stats/charts/bar graphs/whatever in any trade magazines. from what I read recently - vinyl is actually becoming popular again, very very slowly, but still... by the way, there's many reasons distribution companies go out of business besides direct result of drop in sales at the retailers. Nemesis could have been managed poorly from within on all sorts of levels. They might have grown out of touch with the changes in the US dance music market. Not saying that's the reason they've closed but it's just an example of things that happen. It's not always 1+1=2. Same goes for record retailers. They open and close more often than distributors I would guess. MEK * Michael, I sense that your difficulty in accepting easily that what Matthew Mangold and others are reporting is a widespread thing, might have something to do with the fact that you've recently returned from travelling to Europe (and other regions) where 'techno' and all related styles of music (and 'dance music in general) is stubbornly selling quite well, if not exactly having a renaissance. To me, this underscores the notion that non-traditional forms of expression in general, seem able to make marked progress everywhere but in early 21st century America. Am I wrong about this? Seriously, it's not a rhetorical question. I'd like to know what people think. k

I witnessed the whole thing and was right on the guys tail but he was too fast for me. Now I just have a pulled hamstring.

RE: (313) techno isn't selling
To me, this underscores the notion that non-traditional forms of expression in general, seem able to make marked progress everywhere but in early 21st century America. Am I wrong about this? Seriously, it's not a rhetorical question. I'd like to know what people think. K A-side I think the music industry in general is hurting in america. And to me it deserves it. Not the Artist, but those that really control the business aspect of it. Although Electronic music in general is everywhere; advertising adds, movies, games, etc, there is noone brave enough to market it. The reason it shows up in these other forms of art is because the people that are in control of the creative aspects of these markets are a part of a very creative generation. The selling, releasing, and marketing of music is still controlled by non creative "bandwagon jumping" business men. Marketing and promoting is everything and the powers that be, could care less to market non-traditional forms of art, unless of course it somehow makes it's way into america's vernacular on it's own. Which is what I think happened in Europe. B-side What kind of marketing or promotion does True techno music have here in america??? The answer is ,,,CLUBS , small indiscreet record stores and guess what more clubs. How can a record or a c.d. from a "techno d.j." get sold if NO ONE knows about them. I'm in an office of about 40 people, 30 of them are 35 and under. Of those 30 I would say only 5 knows any electronic artist and only one (ME) knows about true techno artist.What's wrong with this picture. I know a lot of people who enjoy this music when they hear it, but the only place they can hear it, is in a smokey nightclub that's open between 10:00 and 4:00 a.m. O.k I'm generalizing here but I think most of you get my point. This has been techno music's major problem, especially hear in america. It's so tied to the dance club industry that it's alienated itself from a large buying market. And we are definitely NOT going to get any help from a MAJOR. -Original Message- From: Ken Odeluga [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 3:42 PM To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: re: (313) techno isn't selling [EMAIL PROTECTED] said in response to Matthew Mangold: yes, as I said, it's not that I don't believe it - I'm just curious to see if there are stats/charts/bar graphs/whatever in any trade magazines. from what I read recently - vinyl is actually becoming popular again, very very slowly, but still... by the way, there's many reasons distribution companies go out of business besides direct result of drop in sales at the retailers. Nemesis could have been managed poorly from within on all sorts of levels. They might have grown out of touch with the changes in the US dance music market.

They open and close more often than distributors I would guess. MEK * Michael, I sense that your difficulty in accepting easily that what Matthew Mangold and others are reporting is a widespread thing, might have something to do with the fact that you've recently returned from travelling to Europe (and other regions) where 'techno' and all related styles of music (and 'dance music in general) is stubbornly selling quite well, if not exactly having a renaissance.

(313) Electronic music culture in America
All the North Americans I know who have been over to Europe in the last year keep saying the same thing over and over, that electronic music culture in America is dying. No clubs, all the smaller cities are non-existent for a DJ/live performance, etc. how true is this? I have seen some evidence via some of the labels I work with having trouble setting up tours that get outside of New York, Chicago, San Fran/LA. Is it really that bad? What would some of the reasons be? How would this be connected to the previous discussion about techno not selling? Tosh -- McIntosh Cooey - Twelve Hundred Group LLC - http://www.1200group.com/
Re: (313) Underated Producers
I've got some great Bryan Zentz records on both Intec and Tortured. Is that not techno? :-P -- Tim Moore On Oct 6, 2004, at 8:47 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tell you what. This got me thinking. (Yeah, yeah, I know that doesn't happen too often) Everyone bangs on about Tiesto etc. But bringing the conversation round a little, I noticed that the now famous Dj Mani in his top 10 list of labels name checked Intec (Carl Cox's label), and 2 of Billy Nasty's labels in his top 10. Now. This obviously proves DJ Mani is a total no-brainer, but also on another level too. If you ask me, at least with the likes of Tiesto etc you know where you stand. He's a popular trance dj, and does his thing to the masses. Carl Cox on the other hand, is a complete band-wagon jumper, who changes his micro style of music every few years or so to keep in with the kids. I forget how many times he's done it, but jesus. Billy Nasty is the same. Their current little thing is so called 'techno' (that's hard dance music to you and me) and f**kwits like Dj Mani are lapping it up and spending their money on it. There's 101 other worthy UK labels he could spend his money with, and has been for the last 15 years. Shame Dj Mani ignored all these and chose to spend his money with the jokers. He speaks of battles etc, and boycotts, but flippin 'eck, all us here in the UK have been battling against these jokers using the name techno from the year dot. It's nothing new. These clowns ruined that word 'techno' (and had done by about '92), such is which we can't use it anymore. I don't use it anyway, do you? Hmm, sorry, more ramblings. And if you guys from Renegade Rhythm come back with a story like "well, me and the advent were having tea and scones and they say Carl Cox is alright", I'm gonna scream. Alex

Hm. I don't think this is exactly right. It depends how you measure it. People now have more access to create electronic music spaces than they EVER had even five yeears ago. What? Garage band and a hip-hop jam pack for only 150.00? Traktor's DJ Suite running only a few hundred bucks? Access to literally hundreds of hours of helluva DJ sets over the net? But there is growing reason to suspect that this doesn't translate into strong LOCAL cultures. > I have seen some evidence via some of the labels I work with having trouble > setting up tours that get outside of New York, Chicago, San Fran/LA. > > Is it really that bad? What would some of the reasons be? How would this be > connected to the previous discussion about techno not selling? I missed that discussion--popping in and out you know. But i think that in order to really deal with this in some depth we have to understand the movement of capital and people across time and space and how that impacts listening preferences, purchasing preferences, and local club dynamics. and on top of that we have to grapple with the fundamental fact that we are growing older. when i first got on this list i was in my mid twenties with the world in front of me. now i'm in my mid thirties with a growing family that keeps on growing. much harder to go clubbing. as far as moving capital and people, here's one way to think about it. i'm a house/techno head. i'm in saint louis. i've got an opportunity to go to the dc area because i have skills (not in house/techno, but in some other area). do i stay in saint louis? or do i go to dc? if most heads have these types of options...if most djs have these types of options...then over time what will happen is that there will be a few STRONG areas (detroit, chicago, etc.), and other much weaker areas. and as the people with the skills are able to travel farther and farther (and the comparison is now between london and dc rather than between saint louis and dc), the number of cities grows smaller, and the local culture becomes more and more intimate. lks
Re: (313) Electronic music culture in America
Well, things in Minneapolis are looking up. I would consider Minneapolis a smaller city. Within the last year we've had Stacey Pullen, Claude Young, Ghostly artists numerous times, Merck has a presence here, Derrick May is scheduled as is Dan Bell, Bunker artists were here not too long ago, Green Velvet has been back and forth, Common Factor was here as well. I'm sure I'm forgetting... We now have a regular techno night in a major night club - big room I might add. In addition there are several smaller clubs that regularly book techno artists. Many of them quite experimental. I'd say that less than a handful of promoters have been responsible for this boost in techno sounds. There is a lack of diversity though amongst the available clubs willing to open their doors to this sound. Too many are doing the usual meat-market top 40 club. Either that or playing very safe house music. Problem with Minneapolis is Chicago. Many artists overlook our city for that much larger one. These events are not an every day of the week occurrence and there are some slow weeks but it's looking much healthier here than it has in a number of years. Still, compared to Europe... well it just doesn't compare. Generally, people's awareness of artists has to be elevated and get out of the conservative mindset. Generally don't find that in smaller cities. Who's responsibility is that though? Record stores? Other DJs? Promoters?

I should amend this - >Problem with Minneapolis is Chicago. Many artists overlook our city for >that much larger one. at the same time, the proximity to Chicago has allowed Minneapolis to have a healthy house music 'scene' when the techno hasn't been it's starting to balance out now MEK

Listenin' to this now. 'Techno Blues' (or whatever people have called it) seems an apt description I think. So any word on vinyl availability dates? I think that's expected to be released in November.
