Re: (313) bay area - Theo Parrish and Rich Medina free tonite
I don't agree with aggresive marketing tactics regardless of the DIYness of the source. I dont mind if they put their logo on the flyer but making me go to an expensive trendy clothing store to get a ticket is stupid. I'd rather pay money at the door. anyway, as usual this isnt about (313) at all. Quoting "Thomas D.

RE: (313) ron murphy
what a legend! whoever said he is practicing more of an art than a science, that is so true...he is such an artist. he will do things that other mastering places would never think to do, perhaps they'd even consider it unwise -- sometimes the results are great tho, sizzling highs and he really makes kicks sound a very unique way imo...we cut 5 records with him, sometimes they had to be re-cut (sometimes more than once) but especially with crusty/less-than-perfectly recorded material, i think he works magic. we haven't done a record with him in awhile but i can't help but imagine that we will again eventually...we left when he was in poor health and not able to put in his all, but hopefully he is doing well again?
(313) DJ3000 "Migration"
It's no big scoop that DJ3000 is a good producer, but the new CD is pretty awesome. I can't wait to drop "Sangita" on a crowd. And the drum programming on all the tracks is ace. I think he does some beat sampling (the 'ethnic' drums on "Passage To Malesia"), but everything sounds real live. Samples: http://www.motechrecords.com/news/upcoming-release-dj-3000-migration

Here are some pictures from a visit there a few weeks ago if you want to take a look around his studio: http://www.flickr.com/photos/technochick/sets/72157594165050368/ On 9/21/06, kent williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: No, he was pretty clearly talking about music at that point.

(313) what Ron means by modulates upwards?
In the context of the podcast (and the tracks he's talking about) it sounds like he means something more like buildups and breakdowns. Yes, this is what Ron is talking about. In more 'proper' musical terms he's talking about adding layers of instrumentation to increase both the volume level and musical intensity. Not so much volume level, but more on the intensity. For example most of the Drum Code tracks do not modulate. Peace, Heath Brunner "underground static" www.vmax.net

I think he means the pitch of the sound goes higher and higher. Something you would hear a lot in an orchestra, particularly from brass instruments comes to my mind.

Any other recommendations of places to check are also welcome (restaurant, bar, record shop, etc). Thanks! Adam
Re: (313) John Beltran - Going Home EP
yeah, you're right there. my ears are just used to the american accent when it comes to vocals/spoken word in house/techno. her soft accent does have a nice lyrical touch to it. just disconcerting to hear it, especially from an american artist. anyway, imagine he had used someone from barnsley instead? now that would be truly weird, by gum!

Yeah we all laughed when he said that, so funny. If it's ever a possibility -- say if you come over for DEMF -- you have to get a record cut with Ron. That podcast? A solid hour of Ron Murphy stories completely different than the 2 hours of Ron Murphy stories I got when I cut a record with him. And while my lacquer was being cut, he was eating potato salad out of a grocery store tub. And he really knows and enjoys techno, which is a bit of a shock when you meet him because he looks like a guy who pull pints in a Swindon pub, or an over-the-hill green grocer. Part of why Ron is so cool is that he has never in his life made an effort to be cool, he just is because of his unique talents. You can tell he knows his stuff and that he loves what he does, that's so rare these days. I'm hoping to get over to DEMF but with the fares that high, who knows. I'd love to get something cut by Ron tho... m And when he listened to my record, he picked the tracks that people would like most.
