Hi Fred-
Long time 313 lurker here. I just wanted to add some feedback:
- Loved KDJ -- especially the fact that he actually spun vinyl. I think he even
played some Genesis (Phil Collins era no less) in that crazy set.
- Richie Hawtin was really fun. I enjoyed the whole thing.
- DJ Minx! Amazing. That woman can command an audience.
- Audion -- loved Audion live. He really took advantage of the Red Bull Academy
sound.
- Dan Bell -- great groove in his set. Made in Detroit's sound was perfect for
his set. (And vinyl again!). I can't believe I've never seen him DJ.
- Rrose -- unbelievable. My favorite set of the festival despite the crowded
underground stage/weather.
I was a little disappointed with the MID sound system on Monday. It didn't do
justice to what Carlos Souffront had to offer.
Detroit notes: Drove by the Packard Plant. I was sad to see how it's
deteriorated in the past (almost 20 years). Loved the Heidelberg Project. I'm
so glad it's still there (at least in part).
Back to lurking…. :-)

How y'all feeling out there?
Met up with John Sokolowski yesterday and heard rumors that
Mr. Earle is in the house...
Good sets yesterday from 16 Lolitas, KDJ, CC, Alton MIller.
Mr. Parker, playing the classics. But the difference
between me playing those classics (Nightcrawlers, No UFOs,
and on and on) is what makes Terrence so special. He was
on -fire- despite playing in a t-shirt in 50 degree weather.
Dubstep has arrived at the festival (in its highly fragmented genre
state). Nuff said.
The weather is actually very nice if on the coolish side, and there
was a great full moon rising over the Detroit River last night.
See you on the plaza and at the parteez... because there's no
way back, at all...
