(313) Greg Montgomery (aka DJ Eclipse of Bangetch12)
I just got a rather startling revelation while discussing Disco D over at SonicState. Was DJ Eclipse murdered a while back??? Granted, I haven't exactly been keeping up with Greg since his set at Detour (late 01), but something like this doesn't exactly slide under the radar. Anyone know if it's true or not? I mean, Greg used to come by the apt in Ypsi back in the day. To find out that he was murdered is seriously f_cked up!

sorry for the delayed reply. i havent checked those threads out cuz im in chicago right now. but, what i was mostly saying is that it would be nice to have sound clips OF the mispressed tracks, and the PROPER minimal nation. so everyone knows for sure which they have! derek.

Re: [Fwd: Re: (313) Robert Hood - Minimal Nation]
Well, the one thing that I can say is that if you have the Jeff Mills mispress, then you would know. The Jeff Mills disc is at a different speed, then the Hood disk, and the it's like night and day musically.Hood side is softer minimal and bleepy at times and the Mills side is pretty agressive/harsh stuff. If you can't tell which disc is Jeff and which disk is Rob, then you probably should give up the copy to someone who can :) I remember when we got them in my shop out here when it first came out and we all looked at each other after listening and said can this be right and figured It's got to be a mispress. Wish I had actually picked up a copy of the non-mispress as I would like to have the other tracks. If I run across my copy, I'll make some quick mp3's, but not sure how soon that will be... so maybe someone else will beat me to it.

Re: (313) minimal nation
definitely the topic is about the axis release my thoughts are the m-plant is just a re-issue of the ax 07 with no mispress. is tha tture ?? -- Benoît. [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit : are we talking 'bout the axis or m-plant release?
(313) New music, sans soleil, stacey pullen in SF
I'm not sure how new this really is, but the Transmat artist mr. trommer has put out a nice 80+ minute compilation of the tracks he's played live on a free mp3 compilation available for download from the phoniq netlabel. Ace 313 dream techno, nice pads, good lively rhythms, etc, with some slightly squelchy sounds (at least one broken beat trackon it, too). Highly recommended. On a different note, went to see Stacey Pullen in SF last night and to my surprise and disappointment, he played nothing but low grade echoey trance with a buildup every four or so minutes, with a reverbed spinback in between those. Is this what he usually plays nowadays? or was he just having an off night? It's hard to believe that someone of his caliber would play crappy euro trance, with just about every single song containing the same predictable buildup and then breakdown. To be fair though, he did do ok mixer tricks here and there, but the song selection had zero variety and was extremely, extremely bland. Did he get any better towards the end of his set? I certainly hope that he did. was it just the pre-2am slump for him? Or is this what happens when djs from Detroit sign to big management companies?
