(313) fuse-in detroit - please help calm me down, or something...

2005-04-15 Thread MTAURIELLO
hey so i've been trying to buy an airline ticket for 
fuse-in in detroit and i'm feeling totally neurotic 
about it, since it appears, from my reading of 
various mailing lists, that we won't even know if the 
festival is in hart plaza or not depending on 
whether or not the organizers can charge for it 
there.  

anyway, i'm just not sure if i should wait for next 
week after the detroit city council meeting, or just 
go ahead and get a ticket and risk having to cancel 
it and lose $.  money's pretty tight this year or i 
wouldn't sweat it.  i know, i know, i should've gotten 
a ticket weeks ago/months ago so it wouldn't be so 
much of a loss if i had to cancel.  anyway, the 
prices just keep going up rapidly, guess it's the oil 
prices, too. ugh.  

i'm already stoked about the electric avenue party 
w/ rob hood, t-1000, etc., but i just can't see jetting 
across the country for something in a football 
stadium, if that's where it winds up.  if if if maybe 
i should've just decided to go to mutek this year 
instead, but detroit just keeps calling

(313) marvin gaye 45

2005-04-15 Thread Guilherme Menegon Arantes

What is the business with these Marvin Gaye 45 RPMs Disco 12 Motown
represses? Catalog numbers are TMGLTD??.
The sleeve reads Made from masters of Motown and Marked by RCA 
limited, London.

The sound quality is pretty good with original label and sleeve design.
But, the edit of the start and end of each track was badly done, with
deliberate cuts (going to the extreme of inserting a silence/inter-track
gap right when Marvin is vibeing in What's Happening Brother -
TMGLTD35). 

So, do you have more info on these 45s??
Are they really authorized? Which tapes/recordings did these come from?

I have to say I bought them two weeks ago in that B'ham Hard To Find 
bootleg temple, so it makes me a bit concerned about its authenticity
;-)

Cheers,

Guilherme

PS (is Motown actually on-topic here?)

Re: (313) Festival goes for $5 fee

2005-04-15 Thread Cyclone Wehner

Yes I understand - hence it being a dilemma. But the point is the media has
been negative for some time. Like since after the first festival. I think
they have been looking for things to go wrong.
And I would say the media has a lot of clout indirectly with sponsorship.
With press like that no one is going to get sponsorship, whoever does it.
Also the market is v bad - that is not stressed at all. Moby scrappped his
travelling fest - and he had sponsors and a major label. It's easier for
other cultural/musical events to get sponsorship because there's a defined
market (I'm speaking in terms of the US). Electronic music is very nebulous.
I mean Basement Jaxx don't have a US record deal anymore but won a Grammy!
They don't mention either that a lot of people - professionals - voluntarily
worked on the festival knowing the financial constraints and that May poured
a lot of his own capital and resources into it. I think the city expected
too much. You can say there is an element of naivity but even the most
experienced event organiser would find it a challenge in those
circumstances. They probably would have  given up altogether. So, yeah,
dilemma.


 considering that it has gotten down to the public issue of the city decide
 how to monitarily manage a public space then the business dealing around
 the festival are open to public debate.

 if the article was simply 'movement doesn't pay people' or somthing
 equally sensationalistic, i would agree. but it's a matter of public
 policy now, so total disclosure time.

Every time I have seen a DJ with Final Scratch they look at the screen the
whole set and never the crowd, and then the crowd gathers around and if they
can they look at it as well. It's created a barrier. The next challenge is
to find a way around that.  It's very disengaged...

mp3's, using only encoded vinyl and stuff I've ripped from CD's I own.  I
think avoiding mp3's really improves the sound quality.  So I'm a bit

Yeah, but 'tis merely the novelty of it all I imagine. Most big DJs who are 
playing out on Final Scratch probably haven't really had the gear for long, 
especially when you express the time they've had it as a percentage of their 
total time on the 1s and 2s.

Or maybe they're checking their email/watching the latest episode of Battlestar

Right we've had this discussion so many times before and I wasn't going to
chip in.

BUT

I have to say this one thing!

That it bugs me that each time the subject comes up anyone on who dares
question whether attention to a computer screen rather than the dancefloor
in a DJ can be a bit off putting gets hit with huh! you should just dance
when you go to clubs you know

P**s off!!!  No one (well not many people) dances more than I do in a club.
And I've been doing it for MANY years.  Call me wrong headed (and if you
remember the last time we had this discussion even I concluded I'm wrong
headed about PC vs. vinyl and am working on over coming my problems) if you
like but don't patronise me like you're some club master and I'm some
jerk-johhny-come-lately who doesn't know any better than to stare in
fascination at the DJ.

The DJ is an integral and important part of what's going on in a club -
otherwise we could just dance to a CD.  Or maybe according to you that would
be cool - after all you never go to a club because of the DJ right?

are you f**king kidding me? there are people who aren't into music to go to

so the dj has to 'entertain' these people by doing a funny jig as well as

Interesting concept. Would you apply the same thinking to a turntabalist?
Does a live band need to put on a show if the music in itself is wholly
sufficient. If you take it one step further then why bother with DJs at all?

I think the pleasure to be had is knowing that someone is there controlling the 
floor with their music. Knowing that they aren't there would spoil it somehow - 
like when they used to do ISDN sets from Fuse in Belgium at The End in London - 
even though it was 'live' it just didn't quite work somehow. But strangely I 
can have the best night out ever with my back turned from the DJ, though it is 
also great  to see the DJ bopping away enjoying himself.

Re: (313) iPod DJ

2005-04-15 Thread robin


all i'm gonna say here is that i was saying about a month ago on here 
that a good dj connects with the audience (whether you call that a 
performance i don't know) and most people disagreed. you don't need to 
see the dj to get this connection. so alex's point of a visual 
performance i think is a good point. it's more than just one tune then 
the next tho, a dj responds to an audience.


313 goes around in circles a lot of the time doesn't it?

RE: (313) iPod DJ

2005-04-15 Thread Jari Tolkkinen


Regarding performind dj vs. just-ol-record-spinning-dj.

I played a set at my home club after a long break and I had the best time 
behind the turntables. Dunno whether it was the break or what, but hearing the 
crowd cheering when playing a good BOOM BOOM BOOM ubercoolische just made me 
smile whilst browsing my records. That's the connection. Audience giving me 
feedback whether I should keep this track for another 32/64 on or whether to 
change the atmosphere all together. I don't concider me being a performing 
dj, just a lucky guy who gets a chance to play his favourite tunes at a club 
now and then and liking the fact that there are small amount of people liking 
the same kind of music. Sharing the music?


To sum up, there must be a connection between the audience and the dj, but 
whether the connection is being made by dj punching through the air or just 
casually smiling or what ever, it doesn't really matter (at least to me). I 
like to see now and then dj smiling, because then I know he is having a good 
time and that can only mean positive vibes towards the dancefloor.


Ok, pretty useless rant, everybody knows these things now that I proof read my 
post :)

i think the dj should be a part of the party, same as the dancers etc.
the scenario described by cyclone et al suggests that most djs behind 
the screen are less a part of the party (-vibe) than many djs behind decks.
this does not necessarily mean that one has to make the clown.. just be 
*present*.
and for sure it doesn't mean that we idolize the dj in rock star way 
already if we demand her *presence*.

Motown is definitely on topic imo btw!

You wrote:
 
 What is the business with these Marvin Gaye 45 RPMs Disco 12 Motown
 represses? Catalog numbers are TMGLTD??.
 The sleeve reads Made from masters of Motown and Marked by RCA 
 limited, London.
 
 The sound quality is pretty good with original label and sleeve design.
 But, the edit of the start and end of each track was badly done, with
 deliberate cuts (going to the extreme of inserting a silence/inter-track
 gap right when Marvin is vibeing in What's Happening Brother -
 TMGLTD35). 
 
 So, do you have more info on these 45s??
 Are they really authorized? Which tapes/recordings did these come from?
 
 I have to say I bought them two weeks ago in that B'ham Hard To Find

There was  time that the dj was in a room and the tunes came over the

When I was old enough to get in the clubs many moons ago, it was about 
trying to pick somebody up and hearing some good tracks as you go f**ck 
up.


I also remember most of the dj where behind a glass walls or in some 
sort of both and were cut off from the audience. Maybe that was so the 
dj and light person could snort there coke and smoke weed.


Then the 90's came around and it change for good or bad that is all 
subjective.


Some go to se a person play records.
Some go to hear music and other go just to have a good time.

Frequencies provoke emotion and how the frequency are pushed should not 
matter so much as long as the frequency are getting pushed.

hey folks, well first a bit of an apology for a rant, but well, my ass
hurts, so I'm in a bad mood.
and, I'm not the most articulate, so obviously its a bit tricky explaining
what I mean.

of course I think the dj should be part of the party - thats what they are
there for. I also think the dj should always look on the dancefloor.
what I just dont understand, is the mind-set whereby the dj *HAS* to be
visually entertaining to be a good dj.

I dont geddit.

sure, its great to see a dj bobbing around, enjoying his music etc, i guess
it enhances the experience - I just dont think its the be all and end all
at all. like some people seem to.

Quote from Greg Wilson is today's Manchester Evening News:

Being a DJ was a whole different dynamic back then. I don't know if you 
remember the Hacienda in '83? Well the DJ booth was in a different room 
at the back of the stage where you couldn't see the crowd. It was only 
later did they move it upstairs. That's indicative of how the role of 
the DJ evolved.

my 2 eurocent:

playing a laptop/FS set doesn't necessarily involve someone standing like a 
plant infront of a screen.
ubercoolische Richie and Ricardo are examples as well as Mathew Jonson who 
danced in as much as the crowd and was even using hardware


regarding djs vs. a mix cd: the main reason you have a human being 
playing/mixing records is because they are meant to read the crowd and 
response to it's feedback, selecting the records.


personally i couldn't care less if the dj performer boogied their ass or 
not, i'm there to dance, and I usually dance giving my back to the dj.

I think that is part of the problem in the U.S. market when it comes to

do not want to think they just want to live in a world of blaaa..  I

Re: (313) iPod DJ

2005-04-15 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Well, Alex, let me just put a different twist on things.  Here in the great 
USA, people don't really like techno or weird bleeps and bloops.  They like 
guitars and bands and rock n roll heroes mostly.

So, I got me this band of my own called The Merry Dials.  It's kind of kooky 
electropop.  It's got no guitar - it's electric viola, keyboards, and the 
drummer plays key bass and drums at the same time.  And we all sing funny 
vocals.  

So since there's so few places to DJ around here, and my mate's night where I 
used to spin got cancelled, I have started to DJ before and after our bands 
shows.  Here's the thing - all these posers who watch the band aren't very into 
dancing.  They like to watch a lot, God knows why.  I find it slightly 
annoying, but anyways, you better damn well believe I got to put on a bit of a 
show when I'm twiddling my laptop.  Otherwise I'll probably get bottles thrown 
at me cus people already think they hate techno, and they also hate laptops, so 
the odds are against me.  But when I'm really working it, and especially when 
I'm mashing up 3-4 tracks at once on Ableton, people actually seem to start 
getting it.  Course, I'm not one to just let the music play, I like to be the 
mad scientist type and combine lots of stuff at once.  Seeing BMG in someone's 
living room actually inspired me to go this route.

Anyway, I do agree, if I actually ever played somewhere with a crowd who wanted 
to just dance to good music, this wouldn't be an issue.  BUT, maybe I have a 
chance to turn some people on to real techno who would never get it otherwise 
by presenting my music well.  There are just too many people who can't 
understand what is going on musically unless you give them some visual cues to 
help interpret what is happening.  I know it seems stupid, but people are very 
culturally conditioned and programmed, and some times you have to give them a 
lot of help so they can actually listen.

they're not into the music?
are you f**king kidding me? there are people who aren't into music to go to
a club to 'watch', as in physically watch a dj?

so the dj has to 'entertain' these people by doing a funny jig as well as
playing music?

well, f**k me, times have changed eh?

Yeah, but 'tis merely the novelty of it all I imagine. Most big DJs who are
playing out on Final Scratch probably haven't really had the gear for long,
especially when you express the time they've had it as a percentage of
their total time on the 1s and 2s.

Or maybe they're checking their email/watching the latest episode of
Battlestar Galactica they got off bittorrent the day before.

It's the perennial challenge, IMO - how do you turn an electronic music
performance into a 'show'? And furthermore, ought you to?



 Cyclone Wehner [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/15/05 11:06 am 

Every time I have seen a DJ with Final Scratch they look at the screen the
whole set and never the crowd, and then the crowd gathers around and if
they
can they look at it as well. It's created a barrier. The next challenge is
to find a way around that.  It's very disengaged...

 jerk-johhny-come-lately who doesn't know any better than to stare in
 fascination at the DJ

 ok, ok.

 for a start, no one was patronising anyone - I just dont get the watching
 the dj thing at all. cripes, it wasn't that long ago you couldnt even see
 the dj on the dancefloor, they'd be hidden away somewhere.

 and I wasn't referring to you either, I dont remember seeing you in the
 discussion, infact I was referring to cyclones comment, which was 
 something

 like HEARING sasha dj, is like WATCHING a zombie and I don't remember me
 calling you out for being a jonny come lately francis. do you?

 and you should know better than to take anything that comes out of my 
 mouth

 with anything other than a pinch of salt.

 I just dont get it at all. never have.

 anyway, I aint in the mood for this s**t... some bird in a car knocked me
 off my bike last night and my arse is killing me, I cant sit down.

 I'll keep my mouth shut.

 alex

 oh, and p.s. I AM THE CLUB MASTER.

No - it's fictious.  Probably used anecdotes from various sources.

(313) iPod DJ - more synth-pop please

2005-04-15 Thread Michael . Elliot-Knight




listening: Yazoo - Only You
eating: my bottom lip
drinking: tea
thinking: Vince Clarke is a genius (and wondering why it's not time to go
home yet)


send me suggestions for more strangely cold and detached synth-pop please
(I've got the usual suspects: BEF/early Heaven 17, Depeche Mode, Ultravox,
early Human League  OMD, Pet Shop Boys, etc.)
any interesting side projects that seemed to fly under the radar?
solo careers worth checking out?

You might look into The Assembly; a series on one-offs Vince did with 
several guest vocalists. My fave is One Daywith Paul Quinn from Apres 
Ski. I know there's at least one more with Feargal Sharkey (It Never 
Happens to Me). Maybe another. I'd have to think about it.

different ratios of synth to pop:
Visage. Vicious Pink. PSB.
Dalek i , also known as Dalek I Love You. Oh, that other Assembly single 
is Never Never.

Haruomi Hosono: SFX and  Philharmony. Sakamoto : B2 Unit. YMO : Technodelic.
Bill Nelson : Quit Dreaming and Get On The Beam (has some guitar as well).
Telex
Peter Godwin's Images of Heaven track.
Thomas Leer
CabVolt.
a few Red Flag tracks.

newer:
You should give the last Future Bible Heroes' record (Eternal Youth) a 
spin - prime synthpop (FBH is a spinoff of Stephin Merritt's Magnetic 
Fields)

The first Ladytron record.

...I'll think of 400 more after I post this.

This is the last one: check the two LPs Giorgio Moroder produced for 
Sparks...one is No.1 in Heaven. Seems like there's another, but I can't 
recall it and I'm too lazy to dig through my rack to see. And if you're 
going to do that, you might as well dig up Kimono My House and 
Propaganda (by Sparks) - neither of them are synthpop at all, but 
they're great records :-)  And, oh - the band Propaganda, of course. All 
that ZTT stuff is fun - pretentious, but fun.

Yeah - spot on with Blancmange especially. Scritti Politti as well 
(after the punk phase - but I liked 'em then, too).
Oh yeah, KTP - Big Man Restless :-) Surgical Penis Klinik - fairly
