2004-10-05 Thread Charles Coke-Smyth




so here it is.

these messages going round about the state of techno and the community. 
techno brings people

together. true. but the picture's still messed up'. it makes me sad that so
many of my records come from detroit because i want that kind of music 
coming from my neighbourhood.
trouble is its middle class conservative and they teach classical music 
and guitars at school.

they wouldnt know a kick drum if it kicked.
i want future kids producing techno that would wipe the floor with the 
streets or mis-teeq
or whoever, proper music. from the heart. i remember living in bristol 
where full cycle put on shows.
bristol organic. no detroit whatsover, but proper high tech soul 
nevertheless. and from a local collective
who tried to develop their music in the community and teach kids how to 
play. even then, i dont even 'get'

why new forms was so popular.
i also think of stories about detroit - altered states being composed by 
ron trent as a fifteen year old or

james stinson inspired by hearing cybotron whilst on his bmx as a kid.

i dont think dj mani is really having a dig- i may be wrong. i think hes 
just sad about the future and where
things are going. he may be very ignorant of the european scenes but even 
here i cant see a new wave of stasis
clones unless there is more 'internal energy' and more kids being inspired 
by techno in the world around them.


no disrespect to anyone on the list. just a couple of cents in the pot.

(313) limited editions

2004-01-15 Thread Charles Coke-Smyth


limited editions to me seem to be about turning the beat down - records 
communicate a message - if the producer wants to limit the people who get 
that message then thats fine by me. I would rather that than flooding the 
market with the same stuff and every dj having the same box of records. 
Okay Moodymann and Mills make good records, but you dont want to hear it 
everywhere you go. Keep diggin in the crates, theres plenty of techno out 
there.

mornin.

I need some help with this...

There's two tactile labels right? wrong?

I'm still trying to get a copy of the Strand record that came out on
Tactile - I never saw it.

I also saw something else that looked interesting on Tactile, can't
remember what is was though.

Did the Strand record come out on the same tactile as that common factor
thing came out on?

Thanks,

Alex

Pan Sonic's Aaliptorii is well worth checking out for Detroit calibre 
techno. The earlier stuff is supposed to be good too...

Check out http://www.phinnweb.com/panasonic/

He is (was?) the other part of Panasonic (later named Pan Sonic).
Panasonic's music is (to me atleast) _very_ experimental electronic music.
Loads of bleeps and other strange stuff on their records. Very minimal.
Hard to describe.
