>From Detroit comes longtime DJ and Producer Alton Miller with releases on
KMS and Planet-E to his ever growing list of prodution credits. Gilbert
Cohen (or Gilb-r) has championed the French house / hip-hop / drum & bass
sound on his own Versatile label (responsible for I:Cube amongst others and
his own Chateau Flight, DJ Gilb-r and Cheek releases), and has become a
world renowned DJ in his own right.
 In the lounge we see Berlin in the house as Thomas Fehlman, Gudrun Gut and
Daniel Meteo bring the Ocean Club electro-pop-click-techno-house sound to
the capital with Bus from Berlin / Pole's Scape label playing live. A.J
Letty holds the whole thing together, with Nick Craddock in support.


In 1991 Alton recorded his first release, Pleasure Baby, for Serious
Grooves/KMS. I Like Having You, his second release
 recorded for Cyren is considered a classic among House djs worldwide. This
single was also a debut for his vocal talents.
Alton's third single, Dusk, recorded under the pseudonym Aphrodisiac for
Serious Grooves/KMS was critically acclaimed on both European and North
American charts. Since his early recordings, Alton has amassed worldwide
success and exposure as a House producer/dj.

For the last two years Alton has been busy releasing singles/EPs for
various independent labels. Guidance Recordings and BPM Records were
plateaus for Alton's inner growth as a musician and songwriter/producer.
The Rare Source EP recorded in Paris for BPM charted in Muzik's 100 top
songs of 1996. Past releases include recordings for Carl Craig's Planet E,
Distance Recordings and Orange Dance Company.

Alton has teamed with one of Detroit's premier playwright and songwriting
talents, Dorothea Sharon on their debut single "Glory" for the Japanese
based label LifeLine records. His album for Distance Records is received
rave reviews for it's musical representation of everything that is dance
music. Also, look for his Lifeline album called closer to be released early
2002. Also, he has a King Street project scheduled for release in April
2002 called "Love Inside" He has also started his own label, Muse
Recordings which has one release to date under it's belt with another due
out in the new year titled "Look Inside." Alton teams up with long time
friend Malik Alston to form a production duo called A-Minor for this
project. Also, look out for another release on Trackmode records called
"Paradise" with remixes by Larry Heard and Kemiticjust to follow. His remix
credits to date are as follows: Sean Deason's "Allegory+Metaphor" on
intuit-solar, Jacob Desvarieux's An Di Adie on distance,Supaka Pooh's "Aya"
on Flower Records,Kenny Carvel's "Rise" featuring John Redmond on Music 101
and Lorca's "I Cry" featuring Mandel Turner on f-com.

>From 1989 to present Alton has toured France, Chile, England, Japan,
Switzerland, Portugal and Germany defining House
music to the world as he has experienced and lives it. Alton's intimate
connection with the drums and varied African influenced rhythms result in
compositions that move people physically and emotionally, and hearing him
dj defines what House music is all about!

In 2001 at the Detroit Electronic Music Festival, Alton played back to back
with Gilb'r, creating the soundtrack to an everlasting afternoon. Public
Heroes seeks to recreate that magic moment by once again teaming Alton and
Gilb'r together for a night of what promises to be ecstatic house
music..

Have got the first 3 chairs records (as it was recently repressed - bad

Wilhite is the star of the show. He seems to be able to nonchalantly weave

Re: [313] am I the only one who is getting sick of deleting posts about jungle???

2002-01-28 Thread Alastair_Jones
Debates about whether something is music are truly futile.
I just think that a neutral observer would find a lot of the posts on here
not only narrow minded and elitist ("I'm fed up of talking about jungle",
"It's not really music") but downright contradictory. The London broken
beat scene is championed on this list, and what did that scene spawn out
of? D 'n' bassers returning to more rootsy music. Labels like Reinforced
have been every bit as pioneering as their Detroit counterparts for the
last 12 years. How can you dismiss this music?

If you care that much, read some old Simon Reynold's articles.

Really, the Reese bassline comes from KMS.

Acid House+Detroit+Hip-Hop+England in 1990=Hardcore

Harcore+1993=Jungle

None of this is music, Every last one of you are Little Richard's

[313] 2001 gems

2002-01-25 Thread Alastair_Jones
As it's still near the beginning of the year, I thought that this is still
a relevant topic.
Over the last few weeks there have been loads of lists in magazines, net
etc. with top lists of 2001.
While I don't slavishly go out and buy all the top 10 records, I do find
these useful to check I haven't missed anything major which I should have
bought.
I bought Cannibal Ox "The Cold Vein" the other day, which has turned out to
be really interesting "musical" hip hop (although I'm not a big fan of the
genre). Has anyone any comments on this album, or any albums which they
resisted buying / didn't hear about all year, and have now bought, and
recommend.
Cheers.

I can't see how people can be even talking about writing him off. Offworld
may have been very different and at times more acid jazz than techno and
could have passed for even the brand new heavies in places, but it was
still funky and musically sound. And even if anyone didn't like that you
only had to turn to his new and amazing As One LP '21st Century Soul' and
all the recent stuff hes put out on 12...'Nairobi' was superb as was the
'Another Revolution' 10 inch. Personally I think hes enjoying something of

Over Xmas I picked up a grip of records (reviews forthcoming), and one of
the stand-out tracks was the Ewan Pearson remix of Russ Gabriel's "We Will
Be Turning". It's really smooth deep house with a healthy dose of gospel
"oh's" and strings. Very different from the original. I've also checked
his 12" on Merrick Brown's Chalant Music imprint. He really seems like a
guy
to watch. Any other releases I should be on the lookout for?

[313] party in March/April

2002-01-16 Thread Alastair_Jones
313ers,
Bit of an unusual question this one.
It's my friend's 30th birthday on April 5th.
Does anyone know of any events worldwide around that date? It could be
anything (313 related or otherwise), the wilder the better!
Much appreciated!
Alastair

[313] whinge bags

2002-01-10 Thread Alastair_Jones
I can't see what the objective is of people whinging about the content of
the 313 list.
(a) you don't need to read certain threads
(b) it's not stopping anyone else starting another thread.
If you don't like the general content of the list, then start your own one
up.

Re: [313] every dog vol 3

2002-01-08 Thread Alastair_Jones

Well, yes I see your point. The same could be said for classical music.
Very few musicians have presumed themselves to be good writers as well. But
as a music enthusiast, I am interested in how the music came about, not in
a set of imposed ideas about what the music means.

Well yes and no.  The bottom line is that the music should speak for
itself...it really doesn't NEED notes right?  I've got the cd, and it
would've STILL been played at full blast for nine hours straight on the
way home from the demf, without the notes.

But if you're going to add another layer to it...why not use a WRITER?
This is the jazz model more or less...and it works.  Wynton Marsalis
doesn't write his liner notes...Stanley Crouch does.  Now in some cases
the artist is a qualified writer in his/her own rightbut I'd argue
that these cases are the minority.

I don't think that musicians need writers to transform their work into
something that is more meaningful. Most music is equivocal, and it is this
that has imbued it with so much power and meaning throughout history. If an
artist wants some sort of narrative to their work, you'd expect that they
would be able to string a few sentences together themselves.

I've actually been thinking about offering my services as a liner notes
writer to detroit influenced artists.  Taking the liner notes from EVERY
DOG HAS ITS DAY away from the context of the album makes it even more
apparent that techno artists need "real" writers if they are serious about
taking their artform and making it into a long term life altering
movement.

I wasn't suggesting insincerity, just that if you believe in God (or a god)

it only irritates me if it seems insincere (cos eveyone does it to seem

[313] Plastic People at Planit 2000, London

2002-01-03 Thread Alastair_Jones
Went to Plastic People and my night revolved around 3 acts that I wanted to
see (see below). The club itself was very well run and spacious and the
staff were friendly.

1) Pharoah Sanders
After a long soundcheck, this started pretty badly. The sound was muddy and I 
think that they were not used to playing to a cheering (!) crowd and so
played louder to compensate.
The sound improved as did the band and Pharoah looked like he was more into it 
(he looked pretty gruff at the beginning).
The last song was truly memorable, because the band were playing to their 
abilities, and everyone was clapping along to a call and response carribean
style number.
Should have been on earlier (12 'o' clock was a bit muted) but overall a 
success.

2) Moritz and Mark (Rhythm and Sound)
These were annexed off at the Plastic People club down the road which meant a 
bit of effort getting to it. Quite a let down!
The place was empty and Mark was putting on (quality) dub in quite a 
disinterested fashion. It looked like they were having a nightmare.
They should have had a room in the main arena, but they weren't exactly exuding 
the happy new year vibe, nor playing any of their own productions.
Jolly nice people, though.

3) Theo Parrish
By this time I was looking for a dance! Theo Parrish came up with the goods 
with a 110 bpm (I estimate) set throughout which came off through his own
enthusiasm and innovation.
This was the first TP set I have witnessed and, sure enough, disco, funk, acid 
house all came into the mix, along with a brave 5 minute spoken word
poem
(I would guess at it being Saul Williams) about the serious things going on in 
the world at the moment. A cheeky, vivacious personality.

All in all, an interesting musical night.

I have recently come across Twilight Circus who is producing great dub, a

He plays all the instruments himself. I don't think that he's been

That reminds me of thier wicked old album Renegade Soundwave in DUB from
about 12 years back. I remember there was one absolutly amazing track that
I can quite recall... transcendental something or other and 'thunder' which
was also excellent. I remember the great thing about that album was most of
the tracks could be played at 33 and sound really deep and dubby, but at 45
you could drop them into any club techno set.

I'm with the musical "luddites" Vince and Yair.
Technology is not necessarily all for the good.
Making very tenuous analogies with the advent of house and techno is
incorrect. It's like saying:
You've become accustomed to a high standard of healthcare now and you like
it, so who's afraid of a little genetic engineering?

Only time will decide who's right in this argument.

RE: [313] DE9 closer

2001-08-31 Thread Alastair_Jones

surely it is possible to have a conversation on a conceptual level, rather
than just saying "I like that!", "I don't like that!"
I admit to not having heard the latest hawtin mix, but I heard the last one
(and it was pretty dull).
I am no technophobe and also I am no purist so let's leave those arguments
behind.
This album is billed as a technological step forward because it is using a
cut n paste style on techno itself, which itself is a pretty cut n paste
style. Do you think that you can continue this process indefinitely so that
there are no new original (per se) sources being used and that music is
forever being recycled to create new music? Does this not eventually make
the music creatively bankrupt?

'It's DJ-ing Jim but not as we know it'

This it's not'really dj-ing'thing sounds a lot like the discussion people
try to have with me when techno and house music came around. People
claiming
we made bad music or it wasn't music at all just because we used some new
and easy technology.

OK, just remember the phrase "I'm more interested in music" i'll get back
to
that later.

Oh please not the 'Don't touch Strings of Live because it's the holy grail
of techno and any atempt to use it in another way is lame anyway' argument.
Also remind the strings of live phrase.

Huh? What is your problem with scientists? So he uses something you never
got into, so what? So you need him in a club do this cut-n-paste trick, so
what. You need a live-act if you wanna hear the music preformed in a club,
they also use technology. If you wanna do a DJ mix then you need the DJ to
do mix, he is the only scientist who knows the DJ technology. I really
don't
see a problem.

> If it sounds good then fine (I haven't listened to it and I

Erm, so you are "more interested in music"  but you are trying to discuss a
concept without ever listing to the actual album to hear how it sounds? And
if you are more interested in the music why-o-why do are you talking about
the way he use specific tracks like strings of live? Please listen to the
album first before you try to start a discussion about it...

I never said it was a creative album BECAUSE he used this technology. I
just
used the technolgy argument for the 'this not a real DJ album part' and
there is a lot of technolgy involved in DJ-ing and yes there is also a
hughe
amount of creativity.

I am not trying to start a discussion about wheter or not technolgy is
responsible for creativity because it's just a matter of taste if you do
like 60's music more then music from nowadays i think. For me there are as
many creative people today then there where 40 years ago. The last time i
checked there is always a man behind the machine, so technolgy is just
another tool to make music. Having more or less advanced equipment is not a
way to measure the amount of creative, it never was and it never will be.

So please listen to the album before saying things like "Am I the only
person that finds the concept of this Hawtin album a bit up its own arse?".
For someone who claims to be "more interested in music" and "not claiming
to
be a scientist!" you make a really big deal from this scientist thing
instead of listinging to the actaul album.

RE: [313] DE9 closer

2001-08-31 Thread Alastair_Jones

If a scientist announced to the techno community that he had devised a new
concept in electronic music
using technology that nobody had used before, I think that most people
would be dismissive of it.
My first question was is it good DJing?
The answer is no because DJing is not involved, but you tell me that it's
incredibly difficult to do.
I am not claiming to be a scientist! That's why he's got his Phd! I believe
that he know's more about science than me! I'm more interested in music.
Good tracks?
Admittedly, the scientist is not claiming these tracks as his own. But he's
cut up the piano break from Strings of Life!
Does it sound better then the original!?
Can anyone listen to it?
Well, obviously you can listen to it in the comfort of your own living
room, but to hear it in a club you have to get the scientist around
because only he knows the technology.

If it sounds good then fine (I haven't listened to it and I have not dissed
it) but the concept sounds suspect to me. You seem confident that these
sort of innovations are part of the 'DJing' future, but it seems to me that
creativity is not enhanced by technology (shock horror). My simple argument
is by comparing the 60s (minimal technology) to today (almost unlimited
technology). There are less astonishingly creative people around today.

Yeah so? If you think it's easy try to do it yourself. I think you'll think
different after you tried to cut-n-paste so many track in one smooth track.
Maybe this is the future of DJ-ing? Computers and HD-recording will become
more and more a standard DJ tool. Someone just pointed me at the Final
Scratch software, i also saw a documentary about DJ's in which Sven Vath
also used a laptop for DJ-ing. I am not sure if this was also Final Scratch
but i do know this WILL become a certain part of the DJ future.

Yes, true and that is why they call it a mix CD so everybody knows it is
not
his own music.

Why can't you play it i know i have been doing it for the last week and i

There's nothing next level about DE9 'Closer to the Edit', only the fact
that all the people who have done it before him
have either 1.  Never been noticed in the first place. or 2. Got noticed
but
have long since been forgotten.

A great many producers (hip-hop, trip-hop, breaks etc.) consistently use
this process to create tracks, Richie has simply made 31 tracks
in the same vein, segued them together and called it 'innovation' (His
publicist spin I'm sure..).

I've listened to the recording alot lately, it sounds like an experiment,
no
flow, just tracks, intended for the mind to bounce along too.  The Gescom
MD
was certainly much more interesting, this still posseses linearity.

Rich uses what seems like a lot of Perlon (I know two or three for sure),
but in the most linear fashion possible.  He could have made some awesome
breakdown edits (to let the music breathe), or to give it an added
'wanna-bust-a-move' attitude, but instead he kept it pretty thumping
(making
it seem tracky,
and boring).

Like the last DE9 this one won't be in my collection, though I'm sure I'll
hear enough of it everywhere I go.

Re: [313] baby ford?

2001-07-31 Thread Alastair_Jones

seems to be a general lack of baby ford knowledge.
The 'ford trax' album is credited with being a seminal acid house album
(containing oochy koochie).
Since then it was all fairly quiet 'til the mid nineties, when the ifach
label was launched.
His work is fairly inconsistent, but he is still responsible for some
classics (e.g. dead eye ifach 01 on the hawtin decks efx &909).
Did some mellower stuff on Mo Wax under the name Twig Bud.

while browsing around through a record store yesterday with a very short
amount of time, i ended up finding two baby ford records for 99 cents and
2.99$. so i ended up buying them as i was in a hurry and didn't have much
time to listen to them as i got to only listen to the other tracks i
spent more money on.

so i really do not know yet what to expect. i'm not too familiar really
with his production. i just know some friends with similar tastes in music
have expressed a liking for his stuff. what artists would be comparable? i
have to wait for a lil while to take a listen as i don't have tables at my
home and i am curious as to what i got my hands on. :)

the records i picked up were: "fetish" and "let's talk it over". :) could
someone please give me a rundown of what the tracks would sound like?

thanks!
lauryn.

[313] fat boy slim

2001-07-24 Thread Alastair_Jones
313,

There have been a volley of emails recently slating Fat Boy Slim and Moby
as being the coporate whores of the dance music 'industry'. Whilst there
are more pertinent subjects on the agenda, I would still like to make a
distinction between the two. I'd don't for one moment like FBS's music. The
fact that it is widely liked, I put down to the general public's low
standards. However, it is fairly clear that the man does not take himself
too seriously, he has fun doing what he's doing, and he gives people a lot
of pleasure. He's been making throwaway pop music for decades and he's good
at it. I saw it at first hand on Brighton (England) beach a couple of weeks
ago.
Moby, on the other hand, makes insipid music of the worst kind, made for TV
advertisements. He's takes himself very seriously, is always trying to get
in on the latest fad/fashion and is a moody t***.
My conclusion is not that we should include FBS in the topics of
conversation, rather that we should refrain from slating artists who have
no pretensions, are just doing their thing. There are much more important
things to promote.
