I used to buy really excellent DNB, glitch and all manner of whatnot 
at Record Time.  I moved away before the dubstep thing got big, but I 
assume I'll still be able to find current musical forms there and a 
lot more. or maybe not.


Last year, I went to Detroit Threads for the first time (i kick myself 
for having never gone there when I lived in the area) and snagged some 
really excellent 2-step, as well as some clothing that I might just 
feature at the festival this year... :)


For the record, when I'm shopping online for DNB/dubstep and willing 
to pay full price, I head to juno, not boomkat.  For some reason, I 
feel suspicious of boomkat.

When I was in Detroit for the '95 Metroplex do, I bought scads of 
records at Submerge, Record Time, and 7th City Distribution. The 
security person at the airport remarked at the odd look of the packages 
going through the X-ray machine -  she quieted down when I told her they 
were boxes of records.

I don't imagine Detroit is a great place to shop for DB, 2-step or
Dubstep.  I thought everyone interested in those genre were
mail-ordering from Boomkat.com ;-)

What record stores are still open in Detroit?  I need techno, dnb, 
2-step,
dubstep, etc.  Vinyl or CD, but I prefer CDs, especially used since 
I'm on a

tighter budget than I'd prefer.

I was hoping to be able to go to Melodies and Memories, Detroit 
Threads and
Record Time.  Maybe I'll make the trek out to Flat Black and 
Circular once

again (so far away, but always worth it).

Are there any other stores still around that're worth the few coins 
I have

to spend?

According to the Submerge website, Somewhere in Detroit will be open 
DEMF
weekend.  I've never been there. I've never had to make an 
appointment to go

record shopping anywhere.  The whole idea is foreign to me.  What's the
place like?  Is it large or small? Is it mostly stuff that they sell 
on the
website, or is the in-store stock more extensive?  Can I work my way 
through

the store in an hour or so, or should I set aside more time?

Greetings 313!

I hope you're right Robin, I'm making my debut appearance at Movement this 
year... finally making the pilgrimage to techno mecca : )

Started the Detroit warm-up by catching Iggy  the Stooges live the other week 
(playing through Raw Power.) Next up it's a 6 hour Derrick May set at Bleep, 
that should be a fitting send-off.

My prediction is it will be damn good  the best of them that Paxahau have done 
so far.  I will hear the tales, wish I'd gone,
decide I might next year.  But then fall prey to either not wanting to fly (for 
environmental reasons, I love flying for its own
sake) or if I decide I can do that I should do it to somewhere else.  Damn.  
Have a wonderful time all you who do make the trip  I
hope it brings good things to the city.

2010-05-20 Thread Odeluga, Ken

Cool. I'll try and listen out for it when out. Ahem.

This isn't a bad time to RE-SPAM the list with something fun coming up on 
Friday.

Stop reading now, if you're averse.


Speaking of Transmat, label owner Derrick May, AKA techno demi-god Mayday will 
in fact be playing a six-hour set for us at Bleep43 this Friday, in London.

Mr. May has promised that as it's us, he will not be bringing his box of 
'Super-Club Techno.'

Instead, expect a set of fun, across the board, deeper techy gear, house, disco 
and whatever takes his fancy, a la his best sets at Lost, DEMF 2000, and Mix-Up 
Vol. 5.

Hope to see a whole lot of you there.

Cheers.

Anyway i hope Derrick May will perform at “Metroplex 25” something close

Otherwise i’ll have to choose between the “Soul Skate 2010” or “No Way

(313) New Omar S - Accciiiiiiiidddddd

New Omar S - proper old school Acid Track in Mid 90's - really
liking this as it doesn't mess with the formula but it doesn't rip off
anything too obviously either.  It's the sort of track where you
notice the reverb on the handclap has been slowly spacing you out for
about two minutes and you never noticed it at first.

Other side is Ultra Fine - not quite as on fire as the 90's track
but still good.

I went in to Detroit Threads one time in 1999 and they had 2/3 of the Concept 
box set with the box for $5 a record.  I couldn't afford all of the records, so 
I only bought 2 of them.  I am still kicking myself.

I am also suspicious of Boomkat, but that is because everything there is a 
record of the year judging by the reviews.

Can I just say that while Boomkat's over-bigging-up of everything is notorious 
and has almost become (well, not you guys obviously)
an endearing feature where everyone knows not to listen to a thing they say, 
from what I know of them (I know one or two of the

doing what they do as it's what they love.
