Patterns of Change
Hi, anybody know who is behind these releases? I've got no.2 and it's got a nice deep driving feel to it, though if I'm not mistaken, there's a wholesale Aril Brikha sample on one of the tracks. I want to get no.1 too which sounded really good, and no.3 has just come out also (apparently getting a lot of support from Mr May according to Hedonizm records mailing list!) cheers, Dan http://www.geocities.com/Paris/1267/index.html http://www.mp3.com/DanButler
Sorry, more IDs
This reminds me, there's a track I've been looking to ID now for at least 5 years. I heard it on a mixtape by John Kennedy, and he mixes out of a Kenny Larkin track from the Metaphor album and into this lovely mellow techy tune that uses the same tones as those famous notes from Close Encounters. It has vague echoey voices in the background, it's mixed at about 135bpm, but the main thing is the slow chimes ala CEOTTK. Any clues? I see theres a part two of Mills' Metropolis on vinyl now. He's getting fond of his parts! cheers, Dan http://www.geocities.com/Paris/1267/index.html http://www.mp3.com/DanButler

I'll give Jochem two bonus points for humor. To be more clear and to go into depth a bit... I thought the casting for this movie was well done. Though it was bumper to bumper celebrities, IMO they were each placed in roles that suited and challenged them. I thought the overall message that i got from the movie was something that I really grabbed onto, as its been a personal view of mine for a long, long time. BUT I don't want to give much of the movie away or give pre stated, concrete views into the topic or movie's message and ruin it for other people. And yes, that is still vague- but I think the less you know about this movie and the more you form your own thoughts about it, the more impact it will have. So, on that note- all i can say is I highly suggest Traffic as it has to do with a topic that has been discussed a little bit on this list and much with in the subculture we all exist in. Sorry if that all seems pointless, I think once you see the movie you'll understand. ok...that's enough off topic. sorry. d
RE: [313] Black Flag 2
Generally The End in London is my regular clubbing haunt. It has one of the best sound systems of any club going, and hearing The Stand... it really cut through and blew away most other tracks. It has such an energy level when the volume is backing it up. But if it puts you in mind of progressive uk stuff... well I can see how you'd feel, association with things that you don't like (through the simple bassline for example) can put you off stuff that is otherwise classier.

I've only heard him play once, last year (1999), and he was a real letdown (lots of Basement Jaxx, Yoshitoshi type tracks, which I guess the new Black Flag fits in with).

RE: techno covers
Talking of covers, at the weekend I caught Envoy live. It was ok, but I wasn't too sure about the use of Lil Louis' speech from Blackout, or DJ Rush's lyrics from Spitball (Hope is the name of the singer isn't it?). It was sort of funny, but then I got to thinking about techno karaoke! Rolando also dj'd, but I have to say he was a bit boring (shocking I know!).

I'm not sure how I feel about Rob hood's live set. I'm a longtime fan of his music, but that set left me with mixed feelings. In some ways, it was interesting to hear his take on some classic tracks. In another, I really wonder what the state of the art is when techno producers start doing sets of mostly covers. I thought covers were relegated to the classic rock set. What's next - a retro nostalgia phase of techno? A lot of people I know were really dissapointed. Which is certainly not to say you should have been, too.

As for first entry into the realm of 20th century Classical, go for the likes of Satie and Debussy (starting with their piano music) - especially the latter, who, if I may be so bold as to say so, is the father of 20th century music, full stop.

Thanks, Dan ps. check out the amazing Pre Fade Listening 12 (haven't heard the album yet) with Tikiman on vocals, real dark and broody! http://www.mp3.com/DanButler http://www.geocities.com/Paris/1267/index.html
RE: [313] Thomas Brinkmann new CD
This confirms for me why so many mix CDs out there are so dull. Most are label funded and focusing on tracks, but when there's so much that a DJ can add to the mix, why waste the opportunity? Let's face it, these tracks are for the hugely greater part made to be mixed with, just wish labels were prepared to take more chances and stick their necks out with some flash cut and paste mixing action! Bring on the Derrick May mix cd.

Most mixed cd compilations from labels (read: the label has asked the artist to mix the tracks for a compilation example: Miguel Migs for Naked Music, or David Alvarado for Guidance, or Nick Holder etc.) will showcase the tracks and not the artist mixing them. This means that the tracks are usually full length, and mixed into and out of quickly (ie 30 second mixes are usually considered long mixes). The best mix compilations are done by artists (not labels, ie Laurent Garnier Laboratoire Mixes) or magazines (Mixmag) where the labels aren't really involved. todd Jonny McIntosh wrote: Also, does anyone have tracklistings for the upcoming Jedi Knights CD retrospective (hope it has some old EV/SYM stuff, don't you?) and the new Moodymann CD? I've heard the Moodymann CD's more of a retrospective. Apparently it's got one of the promo tracks from the Peacefrog album, for example. There are, I hear, 4 new tracks on it (only 2 on the vinyl, goddamn it), as well. Whilst on the Moodymann topic, does anyone know if he is playing anywhere other than Home in London this weekend? It's Notting Hill Carnival weekend and he played at a fantastic party (featuring him, Theo Parrish - he rocked it, Rick Wilhite 4 Hero) there 2 years ago; is anything similar due this time? I'm not risking Home, because he probably won't turn up, it's too expensive and, I just can't quite bring myself to do it... Jonny. P.S. Cheers for the feedback for my Detroit compilation tape. I'll email a track listing to all those who requested it.

RE: [313] hood, mills, craig, nubian mindz, domu
Have to add that the Mills double is just what I've been waiting to hear from him. Really warm and fluid, gentle yet danceable. His use of subtle rhythm building just here and there in all the right places is perfect, plus I love all those marimba patterns! As Marsel says, there are elements of the original Detroit sound, hints of the beauty of some of Derrick May's original masterpieces. Not a duff track in sight, so buy on sight!

RE: [313] hood, mills, craig, nubian mindz, domu
I guess I'm just happy to have a release that is choc full of quality tracks, whether it pushes forward the techno envelope or not. Too many artists are copying other artists, the originators. At least you can't accuse this release of that - even though it has a lot of classic elements in there, it still sounds fresh compared to the majority of whats in the racks at the moment. My jury is still out on the new Hood release though!

Classic techno like May etc used to produce so are we full circle? even hood seems to flirt with real music more and more so is innovation at this point in time not an issue and do we just want quality products? or is innovation to be found in the symbiosis of old and new? I felt that in minimalism techno hasd found a unique quality and even subject matter interesting enuff to explore on its own. I still think thereĀ“s a lot of unexplored terrain in that area which might define techno and shape it into the effective language it can be. One of the most direct and focussed styles ever. I like the way techno is goin, that is i truly enjoy craftmanship but i prefer to be challenged just a litle bit more. In other words, Mills is playin safe and that is a shame, the man has been pushin techno towards extremes which in my opinion is his biggest quality. Same goes for hood by the way. So a definate 9+ for both but a litle note on the side, stay angry! J - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It's also kind of up to Mills as the label manager to ensure that his fans can get hold of his records at a reasonable price - he does have a certain amount of power over the distributors he sells to and surely he can object to their pricing?

RE: [313] industrial
FLA, along with Skinny Puppy and Front 242 started my interest in fully electronic music. I preferred FLA and Front 242 for their purer electronic sound, while I just loved SP's rabid harshness. But FLA now? Taken several rather severe steps back if you ask me. Can't listen to their last, I dunno, 5 albums! (Rhys Fulber left a while back didn't he?) And I mean, how bad are Delerium now?? Their first album (though not Industrial, mind you it did have a few clangs here and there!) was amazing. Especially Hidden Mask, a real tear jerker. Industrial's bright days are long long gone!

The Stabiles, like the sculptures that inspired them, are pieces that explore balance, tension, and space. At first listen you hear the repetition indicative of their minimal nature, but as you listen again the gradual morph and build technique yields a different impression -- one of travel through a large architectural space. The repeating elements are like columns holding up the roof, and the changing elements are the shifting context as you walk around the space. To make more concrete references, Stabiles is inspired by, but does not imitate, the minimalism of Theorem, the Concept series, and Thomas Brinkmann. You can hear echos of the Basic Channel sound as well, but Stewart has constructed something here that stands by itself, and stands up to repeated listenings. Contemplative, chill, and resolutely minimal. Definitely a must buy!
