Re: Techno links from a Black perspective (fixed)
Looks like part of the confusion is just the website's design, to me! The "library" seems to be more of a general collection of techno history (with some Black perspectives, some not), but "writings from a [B]lack perspective" appears at the top of every page since it's the site name? (The "blog" seems to be much more about Black perspectives than just the list of techno-centric writing, IMO) On Mon, Jun 22, 2020 at 9:53 AM Andrew Duke wrote: > > Dweller Electronics > > writings from a black perspective > > Our co-editor Ryan Clarke has researched a list of articles, interviews and > documentaries about techno and its history.

AW: Serious Discussion--SciFi and AfroFuturism in techno
Hey David, not sure if it cuts your bill, but I keep exploring sci-fi every now and then. https://soundcloud.com/ronnypries/ngc-4889 https://soundcloud.com/ronnypries/ai48 Oddly enough, I’ve got the Impression that the Lo-Fi Deephouse youngsters are also moving on in interesting ways. This YT channel features a lot of damn good music I never heard of. Including some damn solid futurist elektro tracks: https://www.youtube.com/c/EELFmusic/videos Cheers Ronny Von: David A. Powers Gesendet: Freitag, 26. Juni 2020 19:54 An: 313 Betreff: Serious Discussion--SciFi and AfroFuturism in techno Can we have a serious discussion about the direction of the music? One thing I've noticed over the years is that it appears that many of the SciFi and AfroFuturist themes that I associate with Detroit techno have gradually disappeared from the music over the years. Why do you think this is? Has the meaning of techno changed in some ways? Is this a response to the fact that we are living in dystopian times and people have given up on the future? (If I'm wrong PLEASE tell me where I can find recent music along these lines, because I love it.) ~David
Re: Serious Discussion--SciFi and AfroFuturism in techno
Perhaps it is about time for a comic book phase? There used to be an old flash site from Detroit, real cool story. Alternatively what happened to that M600 car flash from the late 2000s? Easy bro, still checking for those electro mixes. Psilon Alpha C On 2020-06-26 18:54, David A. Powers wrote: Can we have a serious discussion about the direction of the music?
