He was definitely using a Tenori-On...as supplied by us. I had several conversations with Mike about its' possibilities and what he might do with it. Really glad to see it turning up at the X-102 gig - it's a deep little box- built in sounds are not to every one's taste but that's what the MIDi out is for :) cheers Jason 2008/6/24 Klaas-Jan Jongsma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Mike was using a Tenori-on?

Re: (313) X-102 clips
Hey Ken I heard yours was like watching you wait for the metro whilst reading your mail Ronny! ;-) Sorry, couldn't resist! haha - don't be - just bring it on! ;) Well you do use ableton don't you? So I thought you were being a little unfair on X-102, even though I agree with you. I have to dismiss, i'm not using Ableton. And err, just to put things into perspective before any kind of SW/HW discussion comes up. I absolutely worship X-102 for the greatness, the music and everything. Big up. I was just merely talking about the fact that they both looked absolutely absent on those vids.

Thanks for those James, we had a great time at Sonar - you can't really go wrong with 4 days in the BCN, paying the price now tho. m
Re: (313) Arthur Russell film
For me it would have to be "In The Light Of the Moment". A beautiful, sprawling 13 and a half minute piece of disco. Just this track made the purchase of "The World of Arthur Russell" on Soul Jazz (http://www.discogs.com/release/225139) totally worth it. Of note, the Arthur Russell doco was just showed here in the Sydney for the film festival that was just on the last fortnight. I didn't manage to make it but some friends of mine did. A friend's post-doco twitter was "Arthur Russell doco last night was very nice. It didn't reveal a hell of a lot; the man is still an enigma post-doco but desire for music" Odeluga, Ken wrote: > If we're giving fave AR tracks then mine at the moment remains 'Let's Go > Swimming.'

RE: (313) X-102 clips
As far as I could see, there were no laptops involved in the performance. Jeff was on 4 cdjs, a couple of mixing consoles and what looked like a small silver 909 styled box. Mike was on a newish Korg, some other keyboard, and was using a Tenori-on for sequencing on some tracks. They didnt start until around 3:15 and I guess about 10 minutes into the set they had to stop and draw the curtains back due to technical difficulties. I got there right when they started again and yes, it was pure sonic warfare :) Sure, there were alot of slips and off beat moments throughout like any improv style jam. But when it came together the thickness and texture of the sound was fantastic. The venue is a gigantic warehouse with multi-point sound, massive laser and light rigs and three giant screens so I think the majority of the crowd couldnt even see the stage or any potential hands in the air theatrics :) . That is probably why they don't focus much on the stage presence. The atmosphere is more of what I have seen at raves than at clubs, with a focus on anonymous performance, except of course for the big blowup shots of mike and jeff looking earnestly at the machines in their button down shirts. Here are a few more clips from the performance. You can see Jeff and Mike working the machines from the video screens on some of these. Also, I uploaded snippets of an interview done with Jeff earlier on Saturday at Sonar by Day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdY2aiKEzcE x-102 at Sonar 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRmh61xAFcY x-102 at Sonar 4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1s8m9Y_JDEI x-102 at Sonar 5 Jeff Mills Interview Snippets jeff mills on street music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TB_VDYPtjM jeff mills on track ideas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEIA36Y0pzk jeff mills on his production style http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja9A8TZhw3o jeff mills on musical inspiration http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDqcyJ8s3NQ jeff mills on Underground Resistance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APREuxv_0yw jeff mills on moving to production from djing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAQ-OuWliZ4 Jeff Mills on electronic music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiNVxeasatk jeff mills on production standards http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBcK37VJEMQ Enjoy
(313) X-102 clips - Mini Sonar Review.
Was Ronnie at the gig? surely if you wanted to see hands in the air and dancing on stage you'd go to Movement? X-102 was a great gig, great sound, great visuals, although the main video screen was supposed to be projected and not a massive LED screen, some of the visuals didnt tune out as well as they should have. But you wouldn't even notice that they hadn't. The whole gig was also shown on the big screens with lots of close ups of Mills and Banks playing live. Lots of 909 from Mills and lots from Banks on the keyboards. They had to stop after a couple of minutes, the curtains closed for about 10 - 15 minutes, the video wasn't plugged in. I think they played for about an hour. Definitley the best thing we saw at Sonar this year. A few other reviews: Ewan Pearson: He played twice on the Friday night, nice tracks, mixed very well. Justice: Rubbish! The Minus Crew: Nothing Special, I couldn't see the cube anywhere. Villalobos: We didnt see much of this gig, it was after 5am when it started, it was ok but not enough to keep us from feeling tired. BC vs JC feat. Darren Emerson: Nothing special. Róisín Murphy: We didnt stay for too long at this gig, it didnt appear to be anything special. Milton Jackson: Just saw this for a couple of minutes, seemed good but we didnt hang around. We missed Theo, he was on late and we just forgot about it. We saw some Deepcord, only for a little bit, it seemed ok, but didnt see enough to really know how it went, the crowd seemed to be loving it. We stood at the side of the tent they played in, it didnt seem loud enough, but if we had of been in the tent it would have sounded fine. It would have just been too hot. COH plays Cosey: This got boring very quickly, we left with the lyric of "Fcuk it...Deeper...fcuk it Deeper..." The rest of Sonar by day was ok, nothing amazing grabbed my attention, it was just nice to sit around in the sun. There is always a great atmosphere in Sonar by day. I'm sure I missed a few things, overall we had a good time, without the X-102 gig, I think I would have been a bit disappointed with the weekend. I have some Pics & Video of the X-102 gig, I'll post them up in a few days.
