(313) and now for something completely different
Google trends ranks the frequency of searches by region, language, city, etc. Searching on 'techno' or 'detroit techno' was disappointing, but looking at the searches for some prominent techno artists produced these factoids. 1. Jeff Mills as a search term has trended down slightly since 2004 2. Richie Hawtin has trended up since 2004 3. The city generating the most searches for Jeff Mills is Zagreb, Croatia 4. The city searching most for Richie is Medellin, Columbia. 5. The city searching most for Derrick May is Amsterdam, Netherlands. From this I conclude that potheads like Derrick May, cokeheads like Richie Hawtin, and people who like Jeff Mills are ... Croatian. I'm being humorous here, so please no email from offended Colombians or Dutch. I know that most Dutch people don't smoke pot, and most Colombian cocaine is consumed in the US. I will persist in stereotyping Croatians as dancing fools, though. http://www.google.com/trends?q=%22derrick+may%22ctab=0geo=alldate=all http://www.google.com/trends?q=jeff+millsctab=0geo=alldate=all http://www.google.com/trends?q=richie+hawtinctab=0geo=alldate=all

Re: (313) Orlando, melodic techno, Hawtin
orlando rules!! thanks for the heads up on that hertz record jb. i chat with him on myspace sometimes haha. he is in seattle, and ignitor and his relationship with submerge is a bit on hold...not enough control and little problems and like that. i was disappointed with his appearance on ISF2 as well, he thinks the track is awfully strange himself and said it was really mad mike's thing...he also has that new label triangle, it's a bit on the trancey side, but it's still orlando style, so take that in the best way. the ignitors did come out way too fast -- most of them are total classics but i don't think they got much notice...to me ov is up there with shake and eddie fowlkes and mk as legendary unsung detroit producers...inimitable style/personality/funk in his music. bite before you bark is huge as well yes! amazing raw deep detailed, stunner. melodic techno is mostly way too nice i agree. not enough pain in it, too soft around the edges. needs more pain and ugliness, not in the sounds necessarily, but in the feelings being conveyed, immediacy, real tangible feeling. anyways i heard you write off james t cotton, tom. i check out all the audion and james cotton etc records that come out, i like them but they're pretty disposable raw acid jams, not many real timeless tracks rising to the top...but james cotton's dancing box album, c'mon! there is a track on there that could be drexciya it is so gnarly and dark. and the whole thing is really good -- i much prefer it to most of the chi-techno stuff floating around these days. dunno how this grew out of the melodic techno subject tho, this stuff isn't very melodic at all. i like that bit about suburban knight setting tracks aside for so long to see if they cut it also. i know many people who do that intentionally or lazily -- but it works, and personally this is how you really decide how much value certain music really has to you. fwiw the upcoming convextion album on downlow encompasses work from 1995 until a few weeks ago. send money. buy. I'm just defending my friend just like you are defending your son. that's really noble and touching and all, but give the rest of us a break please...you aren't going to change anyone's (mis)conceptions about richie yammering about him - make your point and move on. i appreciate that you are his friend but since i am not your friend the understanding that brings only goes so far. being mis-understood is the cost of fame i guess. you can't fix it. he could with the proper marketing and pr i guess. but everytime i read an article or interview it's all technobabble douchebag stuff. whatever -- me and a couple friends have been rediscovering and enjoying that basic channel inspired album recently, the music is the music. i'm not generally a big fan of it but i do like some of it. don't really appreciate electronic music being represented the way he represents it but oh well, that's the way it is, blame the media or whatever. richie may well be a great guy. it's not like detroit legends like cc and dmay are without faults either. recently watched a little youtube interview with dmay, talking about making strings of life...HILARIOUS, so pompous. but i mean...the entertainment biz is all bs when you set the actual artistic product aside. tom has to be taken with a grain of salt and a sense of humor. we all talk out of our asses sometimes and get way too enthusiastic and self-important about our opinions sometimes. tom has a great ear and lots of interesting stuff to say if you listen and don't get all bent-out-of-shape because he can state his opinion rather undiplomatically. nobody is going to take his opinion as fact, tom obviously doesn't know richie, so there's no reason to ruthlessly attack him and throw yourself on your sword to defend richie, as if he needs defending. it's just a huge overreaction, a waste of everybody's time, and besides, you know what you are going to get talking to tom like that. i used to flamewar with tom pretty regularly. at this point, unless you're new to the list and really uninitiated in the ways of online communication, it's really immature for anybody to get so worked up by tom, and then to start insulting his children etc -- it's disgusting. it's really shallow and passive-aggressive humor. and then the taunting that tom is unstable etcawful, gimme a break, that is like elementary school humor, which is childish but also some of the worst and most hurtful. i'm very close to some genuinely mentally unstable people. that sh;t is 1000 times uncalled for. tom is the best kind of critic -- opinionated. and something i notice about tom, he only really serves the harsh criticism to people who actively seek the spotlight. that's what you get! if you're seeking the spotlight and a media image, you have to expect people like tom to blast you, unfounded or not, and develop some thick skin.
(313) Moby assualt in Boston
A few years back when Moby was getting all this BS hype he was coming out of a gig @ the Paradise he did for this radio station here in Boston, WBCN. Since it was a promotional event it was not publicized very much. Apparently, as he was leaving the venue he got maced and punched by some angry punk rock kids. These punks were so brazen that they had the nerve to videotape the assault and put it online. Now I don't particularly like Moby or his management but I did find out who did it and sent MCT an email to let them know. I was present @ the offices of MCT when Rich, Dan Bell and John Acquaviva met them to get on the infamous Prodigy, Moby, Cybersonic tour of the US back in the early 90's. Didn't like those people at all but I wouldn't condone them getting assaulted on the street. Re: my approach to Tom. Take a look at the Stephen Colbert roasting of George W. Bush earlier this year. Pretty low brow humor probably by your analysis J.T. but I loved it. You are right about the BS aspect of PR. I was constantly surprised how Jeff Mills and Rich came off in a lot of interviews as their fame increased. Much differently than their personalities as human beings. telepathic regards, the kooky scientist PS. I like Pittsburgh. We did a cool Plus 8 party there once. Clark Warner, John Acquaviva, myself and Rich. I spent the day @ the Andy Warhol museum. Cute city.

Re: (313) Moby assualt in Boston
Hey, I didn't want to interfere in all this, but in Fred's defense, he never insulted Tom's kid. He only attacked Tom about his mental state (and I happen to agree with him), being in such a bad shape he would run the risk of his kid getting taken away from him by the authorities or something along those lines. I agree that's harsh, but Tom's not exactly in need of pity here and if anything is not insulting to Tom's kid, but Tom himself. On 27-aug-2006, at 21:56PM, J.T. wrote: Re: my approach to Tom.
