If you go to Account Settings, and then go to Music Settings, you can 
disable people's players from automatically starting.  Sometimes it 
doesn't work, which isn't too surprising since MySpace is kind of 
ridiculous.

Typically when I mix
records, it's all about what happens at that moment, not thinking
about things too much, just grab records, put them together however
you see fit, and go with it.


I know it's really old-fashion, but I still have problems not
using records... cds and file names looks exactly all the same,
without covers or colors or anything that helps me, and I'm still
desperatly trying to organize the in categories, bpms, ecc... But when I 
look at them, they don't tell me anything.

But when you grab some records, look at the colors, the picture,
ecc and THEY tell you "play me, it's my time".
Probably that's because in my mind, I still "see" a mix like a
sequence of black plastic... I have to upgrade ;)

Hey list,

how's it goin? So I put together my first all digital dj mix in
Ableton. It turned out pretty well, although I found it to be a
different experience than spontaneously mixing vinyl for a couple of
hours. The main difference being that it took forever, at least
compared to knocking out an hour dj mix with turntables/mixer/records.
Another difference was the editing: I found that when I revisited the
mix the next day, maybe my mood had changed and I would  remove a
song, rearrange, try some other tune, etc. Typically when I mix
records, it's all about what happens at that moment, not thinking
about things too much, just grab records, put them together however
you see fit, and go with it. Perhaps I will experience more of that
down the road after I get a little faster with Ableton.

Anyway, check it out if you're interested, would love any feedback you
may have too of course!

I find that having my controller setup and everything next to my

Why should we cut the film some slack? The film-makers blew it, and 
pretending otherwise doesn't help anyone or achieve anything.


Dan.

P.S. If you want to know about the content, I can be be mostly summarised 
as badly shot, poorly lit gossip. The interviewer(s) totally failed to 
reach any depth with the subjects. Sure, hearing about Kevin knocking 
Derrick out is funny, but it's not really what it's all about is it?



Now we're movie critics?  Might come as a shocker to some but Scorsese 
and

Stone turned down the opportunity to direct or even fund Hi Tech Soul.

Are some of us that self righteous and petty that we must cut down
everything that is attempting to make a difference?  Outside this list 
most
of the world knows nothing about Detroit, it's influence on Electronica 
or

the people that made it happen. You are going to criticize a documentary
calling it shoddy? Really, name one that isn't kind of shoddy (please 
don't
you dare reference a Michael Moore documentary here).  If you must wage 
an
attack on what I will call "reference material", then do so because it 
fails

to provide facts or because it is biased.

I personally haven't had the opportunity to see it.  I personally can't
wait.  When I do see it I will take it for what it's worth...a low budget
film.  I will take what I can learn from it and pump it to all these kids
that think this music culture is about drugs, fashion and who's been to 
more

parties.

So I ask, can anyone that has seen this film tell us about the content?

I've switched to using Live for mixing now. All the mixes I do though  
I do live and spontaneously like I do with vinyl. It's tempting to do  
it the editted way but it's about that moment thing with mixing for  
me (and with vinyl).


I do waver from thinking Ableton Live's the only way to mix to  
wanting to use turntables again.

Re: (313) HIGH TECH SOUL DVD

2006-07-18 Thread Matt Chester \(313\)
I saw the re-edited version on Sunday, and the director's q+a session 
afterwards.  I didn't see the film last year, when the response from 
everyone I know was overwhelmingly negative, but I didn't find it a bad film 
at all.   It did have a very rough and ready feel (bad lighting, lots of 
shaky camera work), but the flow worked quite well (presumably the result of 
the re-edit).   It's defnitely true that it never went into much depth 
though, and did concentrate almost entirely on the Belleville 3 (plus quite 
a bit with Eddie Fowlkes).  The director was challenged on this afterwards, 
asked why there was little to no footage with the likes of C2 etc, and his 
response was that he wanted to highlight the roots of the sound, and that to 
expand on the second and third generations would take too much time and 
allow less depth on the subject.   I feel it would have been better to 
include more of the later artists though, particularly since they gave a lot 
of screen time to Spectral and Plus 8 but almost none to other local labels.
Which brings me onto my one real major criticism of the film - I thought the 
music chosen was really weak.  Apart from the obvious backdrops of No Ufo's, 
Strings of Life and Big Fun, a lot of the scoring was really dull, and all 
the club footage seemed to be focusing on straight, loopy material, with 
very little variety.  A shame for a project which should be so clearly music 
led.


Overall, it's a nice enough work with plenty of amusing footage, but I don't 
think it'll hold any surprises for those already into this music (the best 
new thing I learned from it is that Belleville is the home of the reknowned 
Strawberry Festival ;-), and perhaps it lacks that extra passion needed to 
turn new people onto this sound...

HIGH TECH SOUL DVD

Directed by Gary Bredow, HIGH TECH SOUL is the first film to to tackle
the deep roots of techno music and the city that spawned it: Detroit.
With Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson and many more.

"Bredow's cast of alumni -- the holy trinity of Atkins, May and
Saunderson at the front -- fill out this tale with passion, pride and,
oddly for music of the future, nostalgia too." - Dazed & Confused

HIGH TECH SOUL is the first documentary to tackle the deep roots of
techno music alongside the cultural history of Detroit, its birthplace.
 From the race riots of 1967 to the underground party scene of the
late 1980s, Detroit's economic downturn didn't stop the invention of a
new kind of music that brought international attention to its
producers and their hometown.

Featuring in-depth interviews with many of the world's best exponents
of the artform, High Tech Soul focuses on the creators of the genre -- 
Juan Atkins, Derrick May, and Kevin Saunderson -- and looks at the

relationships and personal struggles behind the music. Artists like
Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, Carl Craig, Eddie Fowlkes and a host of
others explain why techno, with its abrasive tones and resonating
basslines, could not have come from anywhere but Detroit.

With classic anthems such as Rhythim Is Rhythim's "Strings of Life"
and Inner City's "Good Life," High Tech Soul celebrates the pioneers,
the promoters and the city that spawned a global phenomenon.

Soundtrack Includes: Aux 88, Cybotron, Inner City, Juan Atkins,
Mayday, Model 500, Plastikman, Rhythim Is Rhythim, and more!

The film features: Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, Eddie
(Flashin) Fowlkes, Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, John Acquaviva, Carl
Cox, Carl Craig, Blake Baxter, Stacey Pullen, Thomas Barnett, Matthew
Dear, Anthony "Shake" Shakir, Keith Tucker, Delano Smith, Mike Archer,

What the f*** is wrong with criticising a film we've seen?
I saw it and am entitled to an opinion. I'm not going to blindly accept
whatever I see without criticising it just because of the subject matter
- that would be ridiculous.
It WAS shoddy - badly put together, badly edited, badly and
inconsistently lit. Nothing wrong with pointing this out as it affects
one's enjoyment of the film.
I don't think the fimmaker knew what he was doing or knew anything about
the subject. Just as they were about to explore something interesting
(eg the demise of industry in Detroit), it moved onto something else
less interesting. The interviews were ineptly handled and the subjects
cames across as less articulate than I have seen in other documentaries.

There's other things that p***ed me off about the film but that's enough
cos otherwise I shall be called the ridiculous word 'hater'
Plus points - just seeing our heroes talk about something they clearly
love. Er, that's about it.

I wouldn't call Scratch shoddy in the least. One time I saw a very

meandering and pointless documentary on Marlene Dietrich. Both of  
these were completely factual! There was no interpretation given of

Low budgets never excuse shoddy workmanship. Pi was done on a low

director had from shooting nature documentaries. Both of these films  
are incredibly dorky, but they're coherent.

I (and some people on this list) went to see this film in London last
year.

It was shoddy and amateurish.

Maybe they've totally re-shot and re-edited it since then...

And for the record, it's not the first film to 'tackle the deep roots of
techno music'.

(313) HIGH TECH SOUL DVD

2006-07-18 Thread Dave Barnett

HIGH TECH SOUL DVD

Directed by Gary Bredow, HIGH TECH SOUL is the first film to to tackle 
the deep roots of techno music and the city that spawned it: Detroit. 
With Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson and many more.


"Bredow's cast of alumni -- the holy trinity of Atkins, May and 
Saunderson at the front -- fill out this tale with passion, pride and, 
oddly for music of the future, nostalgia too." - Dazed & Confused


HIGH TECH SOUL is the first documentary to tackle the deep roots of 
techno music alongside the cultural history of Detroit, its birthplace. 
From the race riots of 1967 to the underground party scene of the late 
1980s, Detroit's economic downturn didn't stop the invention of a new 
kind of music that brought international attention to its producers and 
their hometown.


Featuring in-depth interviews with many of the world's best exponents of 
the artform, High Tech Soul focuses on the creators of the genre -- Juan 
Atkins, Derrick May, and Kevin Saunderson -- and looks at the 
relationships and personal struggles behind the music. Artists like 
Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, Carl Craig, Eddie Fowlkes and a host of 
others explain why techno, with its abrasive tones and resonating 
basslines, could not have come from anywhere but Detroit.


With classic anthems such as Rhythim Is Rhythim's "Strings of Life" and 
Inner City's "Good Life," High Tech Soul celebrates the pioneers, the 
promoters and the city that spawned a global phenomenon.


Soundtrack Includes: Aux 88, Cybotron, Inner City, Juan Atkins, Mayday, 
Model 500, Plastikman, Rhythim Is Rhythim, and more!


The film features: Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, Eddie 
(Flashin) Fowlkes, Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, John Acquaviva, Carl Cox, 
Carl Craig, Blake Baxter, Stacey Pullen, Thomas Barnett, Matthew Dear, 
Anthony "Shake" Shakir, Keith Tucker, Delano Smith, Mike Archer, Derrick 
Thompson, Mike Clark, Alan Oldham, Laura Gavoor, Himawari, Scan 7, Kenny 
Larkin, Stacey "Hotwax" Hale, Claus Bachor, Electrifying Mojo, Niko 
Marks, Barbara Deyo, Dan Sordyl, Sam Valenti, Ron Murphy, George Baker,

Re: (313) Ableton DJ Mix

2006-07-18 Thread Emiliano Zani

A different experience than spontaneously mixing vinyl for
a couple of hours. The main difference being that it took forever,...


Yeah right: same for me... Ableton gives me so much (too much?)
opportunity that everytime I start mixing with it, I found something
new I could do, so I stop mixing and start sampling, ecc ecc...
After 3 hours, I haven't mix anything so I say to myself: this
would be useful for the next mix... The problem's that the "mix"
never comes :-/
Probably I'm still in a baby-staring-at-candies mood: I want to
eat the whole thang... Hopefully, I'll grow and make some
choices about what I *really* like to do with Live.

By now, I'm gonna download and hear what Adam likes to
do with it ;)


Typically when I mix
records, it's all about what happens at that moment, not thinking
about things too much, just grab records, put them together however
you see fit, and go with it.


I know it's really old-fashion, but I still have problems not
using records... cds and file names looks exactly all the same,
without covers or colors or anything that helps me, and I'm still
desperatly trying to organize the in categories, bpms, ecc... 
But when I look at them, they don't tell me anything.

But when you grab some records, look at the colors, the picture,
ecc and THEY tell you "play me, it's my time".
Probably that's because in my mind, I still "see" a mix like a
sequence of black plastic... I have to upgrade ;)

Hey list,

how's it goin? So I put together my first all digital dj mix in
Ableton. It turned out pretty well, although I found it to be a
different experience than spontaneously mixing vinyl for a couple of
hours. The main difference being that it took forever, at least
compared to knocking out an hour dj mix with turntables/mixer/records.
Another difference was the editing: I found that when I revisited the
mix the next day, maybe my mood had changed and I would  remove a
song, rearrange, try some other tune, etc. Typically when I mix
records, it's all about what happens at that moment, not thinking
about things too much, just grab records, put them together however
you see fit, and go with it. Perhaps I will experience more of that
down the road after I get a little faster with Ableton.

Anyway, check it out if you're interested, would love any feedback you
may have too of course!

Speaking of new releases...

Congratulations to our very own Alex Bond and his partner Rebecca  
on the birth of their daughter Millie last week (mother and  
daughter healthy and at home now).


Woo hoo!  Thank goodness it wasn't a boy - can you imagine unleashing
another Alex Bond Jr. on us :)

3 cheers Alex!  Cigars all around ... (chocolates ones please, can't
stomach the smell of tobacco versions personally)

BTW, this gives me the opportunity to finally say ...

We all know the phrase "Techno brings people together" as being
that annual adjunct to the festival ...

But it's a lot more than that, it's an Ideal for Living too.

And on that note, I want to thank all the brilliant (313) Brits
I hooked up with on my trip through Manchester and Barcelona
last month.

Robin Pinning, Bond ... Alex Bond, and Francis ThatAmazingWooffThing
took time out of their lives on a worknight to spend nearly 5
hours showing me around central Manchester.  I can't thank them
enough for taking the time out, I had a wonderful time in a place
that's pretty much hallowed ground to me.  Top blokes, the lot of you!

And similarly, my thanks to everyone who helped make my stay in
Barca during Sonar week such a fun time - I'll forget people I'm
sure but thanks to Juanjo Ramirez (Our Man in Barca) and Angel
Molina; Robert "Ginger Man" Taylor, Toby Frith, Nicole Slavin,
Matt 11th Hour Chester and his wife, Patrick and everyone else
(see, told you I'd forget people's names - please don't be offended,
my Indian name was Memory Like Sieve) I met both in the pubs and
on the beach at the M_Nus party.

BTW - best t-shirt I saw the whole week:

F&*k Berlin
Barcelona has a beach

And, last but not least - I finally met Tosh!!!  :)
(I need some of those backstage camera phone shots you took, dude)
