Re: (313) New Richie Hawtin Mix CD: DE9: Transition
okay i thought i mailed this last week but it got stuck in my outbox somehow. so excuse the lateness not out to bash Rich in particular, but more-so this lame philosophizing. On May 26, 2005, at 2:22 PM, Aleš Hieng / Zergon wrote: The electronic music world is incredibly difficult to stay ahead of. What is branded cool one week, might be slated as dirty the next. and we should all be fearful of being judged by our techno peers to be only at the bleeding edge of cool, because every 60 seconds a new microtrend in techno has born and died. And god forbid you weren't there to get a record (errr, audiofile) released in time to ride that microtrend and be leading a pack that will inevitably devour you as they themselves seek to be EVEN MORE TECHNO than their predecessor, even if for an instant. yuck. i don't think many techno artists worth a second listen operate this way. Endless techniques are used by artists and their management to try to keep themselves beyond mainstream musical comprehension, and therefore slipping from the razor’s edge where legends can be crafted. and where, without a foundation in any form or underpinning substance or soul, it all just collapses under the weight of it's own technical "process" overhead. it isn't music anymore, it's just simply technology without anything else as a vehicle for artistic expression. in short, music produced in this manner may make scientists and studio engineers swoon, but on the other hand it also simply disappears right up it's own rear end. poof! "Legends can be crafted" when the artistic product endures for some reason or another beyond a millisecond, it's not just another forgettable technical masturbation. Whether that applies to this work remains to be seen. i'll listen with an open mind but this press release gets at the whole problem i have with techno being so technical and 'of the second' it becomes utterly disposable. the second you've heard it it's suddenly irrelevant because another production method has replaced it. when all that's there is technique, pure technique, once that novelty wears off there's nothing underneath it. what is the real artistic statement? Reminds me of the Emperor's New Clothes. I shouldn't read press releases. -- MM http://sonicsunset.com
RE: (313) techno discographies
I missed Kenny this time but I know he's going strong. I was able to pick up a white label (KDJ 33) at Rick Wilhite's shop--he's back to his old tricks with the cut up disco loops and KDJ weirdness on the flip. Shouts to IU -- my alma mater!

RE: (313) Fuse-In Day 1
Monday was the highlight for me. 2:30 am - Osunlade, worth the wait. 3:30 am - Ron Trent, excellent as always. 4:30 am - Suburban Knight, playin' all kinds of crazy white labels. 6pm - Kenny Larkin, kickin' James Brown for the breakers. 7pm - Octave One, Ann Saunderson sings Somedays and Black Water. 8pm - Carl Craig, finishes with Angola. 9:30 pm - UR Live, performs single best show of my 33 years. 11pm - Mos Def, a really nice way to close another excellent festival.

The crowds are down just a bit but better than I expected so the $10 admission didn't really hurt things at all. This is an excellent sign for the financial health of the festival. Highlights -- a very fine live electro set by Bangkok Impact (I think that's who it was) in the Musicological tent although something went out with their gear right at 8 pm and they cut it short. And a thumping tech/house DJ set by our own Fabrice Lig that had the main stage up and moving consistently for the first time today. Nice touch: the good old Hardfloor Circus Bells remix at just the right hands-in-the-air moment near the end of the set. Aril Brikha was also quite good. The live sets in general are working out quite well. Off to afterpartyland . . . phred

RE: (313) Fuse-In Day 1
Yeh, Fabrice really delivered. He played some gems--Omar S, Day toward the beginning which he brought in very slowly through a dense filter before he opened it up and it run for several minutes; then later he mixed Shades of Jae with another vocal track that sounded very similar which sounded totally dope. Also my non-techie friends liked his set the best of those on the main stage Saturday night.
