Re: (313) piccadilly records. Any good?
i've been placing orders with piccadilly every two or three weeks for the past two years or so. never ever had a problem. the records turn up on the other side on the world within four or five days. they have a great slection for the stuff i like. i really like their wishlist function. a friend received one order from piccadilly with broken records - they replaced them without question. james www.jbucknell.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] com To 23/04/05 01:00 AM 313@hyperreal.org cc Subject Re: (313) piccadilly records. Any good? just came across the site of http://www.piccadillyrecords.co.uk . And I was wondering if anyone has any experience with them. E.G. Do they deliver in a timely matter? If something's listed as in stock, is this really in stock? How do they handle overseas shipping. That sort of thing... Hello Joost. Piccadilly records is my friendly local record shop. I have been buying my records from them for well, maybe 10 years now I'd say. (With a gap where I lost the plot and I wasn't buying any records.) They're a great shop, owned by great people who care for music, and care for the service they provide. Theres no attitude, no hierarchy, just plain old friendly service. I can't recommend them highly enough really. They excel in all genre's of music, from the latest obscure private press indie 7's, through imports like mahogani and on to re-issues of interesting music etc. A real one stop shop. These days, i dont really ever shop anywhere else for my new bits, I occasionally have to get the odd bit from elsewhere, but I'd say I was a pretty loyal customer. In return, they're great to me, not only me, but all the local people that visit the shop. They also like to support people who's music they like, or feel should be heard, and thats never a bad thing either. I have never used the mailorder service, perhaps someone else can advise. Thanks Alex p.s. yes, I am a brown noser. But, well, sometimes things like this just need to be said. Christ I've come across enough ars**oles in record shops to know. So, yeah, a real ass-kissing review, but I wouldnt say it if I didnt mean it. p.p.s. ask them if they have any warehouse finds. ho ho ho ho _ - End of message text This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

RE: (313) piccadilly records. Any good?
I can't recommend picadilly enough! I used to go there all the time when I lived in Manchester, and even now on the other side of the world they remain one of my favourite shops. As well as the red-hot warehouse finds that seem to pop up with alarming frequency, their staff have the best taste in music. While I still use juno most of the time, Picadilly is the place I go to when I want to listen to something fresh; their staff picks are always right on it. In terms of mail order, they do Manchester-Sydney in around 4 working days, with no problems encountered by me ever. In addition, if stuff isn't in stock, they'll send it out to you once it is, and only charge your card at that point. I was well happy when some gear I'd completely forgotten about turned up out of the blue a few weeks after I ordered it. Manchester heads - are they still on Oldham St? What's Eastern Bloc like nowadays?

While i've never been there (but hope to someday) their weekly email newsletters with label art and descriptions is great, they do a really nice job with it. Of all the record shop emails I'm subscribed to... (and sadly not enough time to even open many of them), if i only have time to read one, you can bet it's the Piccadilly weekly issue guide. The editorial bit at the beginning this weeks thoughts is written with care and always provides a chuckle and worth a skim. I think you can even configure which genres you want to get in your email newsletter, so it's customized to your tastes. Of course for weridos like me that work the seams BETWEEN genres, this makes it more difficult cause I have to check almost all the boxes.. but that's my problem not theirs. ;) -- MM http://sonicsunset.com

Manchester heads - are they still on Oldham St? What's Eastern Bloc like nowadays? Yep, still on Oldham Street, and as for Eastern Bloc... personal taste, but I wouldn't bother
RE: (313) piccadilly records. Any good?
Manchester heads - are they still on Oldham St? Yep. What's Eastern Bloc like nowadays? Oh. Hmm. Eastern Bloc ceased being the shop it USED to be a long long time ago. However, it's owner John Berry is a great guy who has done alot for techno over the years in Manchester. A true gent. I don't buy any records in there any more, haven't done for hmm, 6/7 years? They don't have anything I want really. Lots of people still shop in there though. I think these days they do more of the harder techno like John plays, the tech-housey kind of gear Mark Turner plays.. Jungle/DB, Garage etc etc oh, and I think they do a good line in rave type mixtapes. Not really owt I want. Ahh, the glory days of Eastern Bloc. Walking in to get slaughtered by Moonboots.

They are playing way too much Electro-House for my taste. They assured me it is not possible to deliver quality and still have a large audience. Then I talked about SS. I don't know hom many listeners you have... but there are 6 million Dutch speaking belgians, and 10 million people in chicago? And the studio brussel station has about 4% market share. So it could be that you have as much listeners. And even if they have 5 times more, your show is 10 times better. So you beat them with a ratio of 2. :-) Cheers, Maarten

Ha!! well thanks for your support Maarten the difference may be they are commercially funded by radio advertisers? We are fortunately not advertiser supported, which means we are sort of living in a fools' paradise. ;) So I don't have to worry if what we spin fits a certain advertiser's marketing demographic target (which is usually the way a commercial station gets to the uncomfortable reality of QUANTITY of listeners over the QUALITY of the music they play). This setup is a luxury that the community radio ssytem in the US affords us. And we just happen to have a big listening reach because of the huge population density of chicago, especially by the lakeshore where we broadcast from. But we have to do annoying pledge drives to raise money for the station expenses periodically. Still, i'd rather do that than have to have commercials interrupting the mixes, and then be under the thumb of demanding advertisers who begin to dictate what you must play so that your music appeals to their advertising target. Gramaphone Records used to sponsor/underwrite the show in part, but due to their own economic realities they had to stop... but that was about as good as an underwriter as we could have ever asked for! I think many major US cities have good alternative college/community radio programming... and even small and medium size cities if they have universities, etc. I can think of many other good ones. They're just hidden down on the left end of the dial and usually lower powered transmitters than the giant ClearClannel monopoly commercial stations have. Most people don't know this but music selected at most ClearChannel stations in the US is not even picked by a human. A database figures out the right mix of major label music to suit marketing demographics dictated by advertising spend. All the DJs do is announce and transition from programming into commercials and local announcements such as weather and traffic. It's pathetic, really, some are even recorded days in advance and stitched together by a technican, the shows aren't even live in any sense of the word.Of course there are some exceptions for specialty programming shows where the Dj is positioned as genre expert (blues, jazz, etc.,.. usually on sunday nights in local markets) but usually a database is still the selector for most prime time programming on hit radio kind of stations. peace, -- MM http://sonicsunset.com

Re: (313) Ann Clarke - big in detroit (?) sonicsunset.com
Hi Matt, Ha!! well thanks for your support Maarten the difference may be they are commercially funded by radio advertisers? We are fortunately not advertiser supported, which means we are sort of living in a fools' paradise. ;) well, they get their funds of my tax money! So they are supported by governement money, collected from the citizens. No advertisment. But as I understand it, they have to reach a 6% market share to get some more funds or something. So what they want to get more people listening to their station, and that's probably why they are a bit more on the commercial side of things as they used to be five years ago. In the '97-'98 period they had every week a Dave Clarke show (when he was still a great dj, with a wide selection in music). And he once dedicated a whole show on Chicago Booty (Dj Funk, Deeon, etc.). That was awesome. Last year they had dj Godfather over, but this is the last half hour I remember as being great. They fill their time mostly with overrated hyped up electro inspired house with the same cold impotent synth sounds all the way thru. Ah well... hoping for a better time to come. Cheers, Maarten

Re: (313) Ann Clarke - big in detroit (?) sonicsunset.com
yep, anne clark w/ david harrow - sleeper in metropolis has a green sleeve. the way the drums are produced on that record is so aggressive and metallic, and the whole track is about drama moreso than being a party track (it's darker than a lot of new wave, though it's got a similar feel to section 25 - looking from a hilltop). it's more of an electro record than 'our darkness', and i'm not entirely sure of its popularity on detroit radio - maybe someone like dan, sean, or alan can speak to that... i know that in chicago, 'our darkness' was definitely a bigger record. speaking of which, last friday's radio session with chicago's steve tang guesting was pretty intense - he dropped about 5 razormaid mixes, including 'our darkness' and some other random joseph watt remixes i've never heard of. hopefully the recording worked out...you guys are in for a treat.

Hmm, I think his show here was called dave clarke worldwide and between the tracks he played recorded messages of other dj's raving about dave clarke ;-) He was a great dj back then. I remember his dj set at I Love Techno in Ghent in '98. It was amazing. It's untrue. He mixed a lot of double copies. Just letting two of the same records play (so you hear a phaser) with a 2 bar hook, then he hold the first record for a beat and puts it back in, so now you have a repeating hook of 1 beat long. It was crazy. Then he dropped Lil Louis - Original Video Clash at 135 BPM. How did he do that? That track is 115 BPM or something? And putting it at 45 would be too fast. Every 30 seconds there was a new track coming out of the speakers, with a totaly different sound. I don't have the mix anymore and don't find it on soulseek, but I need it so much. It's entertaining.

They are playing way too much Electro-House for my taste. They assured me it is not possible to deliver quality and still have a large audience. Then I talked about SS. I don't know hom many listeners you have... but there are 6 million Dutch speaking belgians, and 10 million people in chicago? And the studio brussel station has about 4% market share. So it could be that you have as much listeners. And even if they have 5 times more, your show is 10 times better. So you beat them with a ratio of 2. :-) Cheers, Maarten

Re: (313) peacefrog
Oh, by the way Mike Veeck, the son of the Sox's promotion manager at the time, now manages the St. Paul Saints (minor league) and their stadium is right by my new house: The Northern League St. Paul Saints, a team that Mike Veeck now presides over, celebrated the 25th anniversary of Disco Demolition on Saturday [this is a 2004 article]. The Saints allowed fans to bring disco records to the ballpark in exchange for one Saints buck, and the records were destroyed between innings of their game against Schaumburg. Disco Demolition Night has been a 10,000 pound gorilla on Mike's back for 25 years, Saints VP Derek Sharrer said. We think revisiting that infamous event will be a healthy exercise for him. Hopefully, we'll get it right this time. lovely :^/ MEK Michael.Elliot-Kn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To 04/26/05 05:37 PM [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc 313@hyperreal.org Subject Re: (313) peacefrog the majority of records that were brought in by attendees at Comiskey Park weren't disco records but they were records by black artists.

'Bout fell off my legs laughing, because I know more than my share of house/disco collectors that go on about the comisky park incident and how those people had no respect for the vinyl and all that. Hahahaha. Yo tom, I'm going down curtis' tomorrow, so...smoke 'em if you got 'em... Kamal K. Stoddard Turner Broadcasting Systems -Original Message- From: Thomas D.

We had a guy call the shop last week who wanted a whole load of Chain Reaction releases but ONLY if they were in the original brown card sleeves and NOT the new black ones- that's when it gets a bit silly for me- we had them all so he was happy but it just struck me as strange that he would have knocked them back had they been in a different sleeve! thats just total nonsense. personally, i wish everyone who made good music kept it in press all the time. change
