Re: (313) Ultravox
Why? Man, he had a superb, soulful voice like fellow Scot Annie Lennox - strong contrast with the electronic music. (I notice that Eurythmics are experiencing a revival among leftfield club DJs at the moment.) And, man, did he not have the look. Suave with a capital S! The record Vienna is magnificent! I just got the Vienna LP for $5 (around US$8) yesterday - mint - in a little second hand shop in Camberwell along with Rage In Eden Dare. What a steal. His later solo stuff was mixed - I agree, though his version of No Regrets is cool. BTW I recently did an interview with Howard Jones! He is such a cat! It's a real joy interviewing these 80s acts who are now being recognised. Maybe I can post it online somewhere. He is quite familiar with current electronic music and had some interesting insights into the marketing of electronic music. Iva Davies of Icehouse is fascinating too. Avoid all Ure-era Ultravox like the plague :-) what about Herr X/Mr X Greg? Do you not like that one...? thats from 'ure' era maybe?

RE: (313) legit mp3 downloads (artists get PAID)?
One half-way house solution (really its fudge!) might be to buy one of those new pro-CD decks which can play mp3s. I almost bought one recently, although in the event I opted for an ordinary deck on price, thinking that, if it came down to it, I could of course just burn CD-Rs of mp3s, (biting my tongue on the sound quality issue.) This way, I can always maintain the full-spectrum quality and ethos and malleability of analogue DJing (or so-called DJing, in my case, ha!) and play out anything I might only possess in mp3 format, on CD. However, I realized years ago that the benefits of digital are overwhelming and it's just a matter of time before I decide to go for it properly (I'll always need some proper hands-on format though so I would probably still look at final scratch or serato (?), possibly Ableton.) But I would wherever possible, still buy vinyl and/or cds. Even if I played out digital files, I'd still like to know that I had access to the full-fat version. Plus it gives you the flexibility to decide the quality at which you play them out - that might depend on how long a set you have, laptop capacity etc ... hmmm.

Re: (313) legit mp3 downloads (artists get PAID)?
Bah, guess, i will add my two cents, I look at owning the vinyl as owning the next best thing to a studio master. Problem is vinyl wears out each time it is played. Digital files never wear-out, and if you dj digitally, you don't have to get an acetate made every time a remix/edit is done. Alot easier to play your exclusive tracks on a limited budget, as most of us are on. -so I have been working on digitizing my vinyl collection, but its time consuming. Most of the vinyl I am after is out-of print, some new music I would rather buy a legit mp3 if the music is recorded digitally in the first place. But for the older records which were mastered from reel-to-reel, vinyl is the only answer because one must do there own analog to digital master, and this is where modern djs have a chance to stand out from the rest, the techno-world needs more Larry Levins and Ron Hardys doing there own remixes etc. On Jun 23, 2005, at 11:02 AM, fab. wrote: Records are great, but they just don't compare to the convenience of keeping things in digital format.

Re: (313) Gear v. laptop
Hi, I think this is VERY true, in fact, I have gotten out all my old gear and I'm working on a new hardware live PA again - but while I gain a huge amount of energy, I definitely lose a lot of intricacy due to the limitations of the gear which pretty much forces me to do a bunch of loops. I just can't program the same amount of change and detail as I can when I DJ my finished tracks off of laptop. Still, I'm hoping that the funkiness and live energy and constant change up of patterns/songs will make up for that. I also have considered syncing my laptop to the gear and once in a while bringing finished tracks off of the laptop. Best of both worlds? ~David [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think the lack of variety was due partyly to them being so busy keeping all the gear under control. The atmosphere created by this mad scientist lab of gear (one of them had a dexter's lab tshirt which was very appropriate) lends itself to sweaty knob tweaking and channel cutting while trying to catch up with the sequencer as it goes from track to track. This made the tracks sound very similar and somewhat compromises the ability to intricately map out the flow of a performance over time which IMO a laptop is more suited for since the timecode and cabling is all internal and out of sight. Of course the tradeoff with the laptop is that it compromises the raw live feel you get when it seems like the machines could go haywire at any moment.
Re: (313) bad photos of Mills in Chicago
I think the funny thing is that the techno scene of whatever form in chicago was a really neglible percentage of the people there. It was mostly young, middle class whatever, but overall there was a pretty wide variety in the crowd. I don't know if its because money and organization seems like a total non-issue at these events, but they're the most comfortable and humane and plain fun things going on around here. Afterwards it was great to see Mike Dearborn joking around on the mic and a bunch of people including dj Funk up saying hi to Mills. I know Josh thinks its gonna make people go soft, but he played everything from Ben Sims to James Brown and people really did start cheering the whole time once the sun went down.
