Drexciya are from Ohio.
Dopplereffekt are from North Dakota.

Or is it the otherway around, maybe it's not North Dakota, it could be
South Dakota, or is it North Carolina.

I get confused with things that don't matter, like whether Drexciya is
Dopplereffekt.

;)

Always for those that know, and even those that don't.

Ahem... 313 FAQ!

btw heard a rumour which might have done the rounds (I'm a 313

Re:[313] Detroit Techno Artist

2001-02-24 Thread Fred McMurry
Ok, this may prove to be a good topic itself (trying not to sound like a 
school teacher but failing):

Maybe the reason this list isn't much
about Detroit artists anymore is because there really
aren't a lot of artists producing at high output
levels in Detroit,


Why? What's happening or not happening in Detroit, how has the creative 
environment changed?

Let's not forget this is a Detroit list. We need some
focus, but we can't be too narrow with how we define
what's on-topic. Maybe the reason this list isn't much
about Detroit artists anymore is because there really
aren't a lot of artists producing at high output
levels in Detroit, and most of us who are really into
it already have had the good discussions on most of
the Detroit artists. So we're left talking about
events, new releases and controversies. Since there
aren't a lot of new releases, there isn't a lot of
discussion about Detroit.

Thoughts on how to get back to the music from Detroit?
What are we neglecting?

interesting things to check out while there that are true to Detroit. Plus 
if someone can hit me up again with the link to the virtual tour of

I don't play records out much, but once my friend had this party at Middle
Head on the North Shore of Sydney Harbour, it's actually army property the
decks and dancefloor were in this huge maze like concrete bomb shelter. The
acoustics were interesting to say the least, part of the shelter roof was
missing so you could look out over 180 degree views of Sydney Harbour.
Despite the amazing venue, the party seemed fairly stagnant, so I started
off with one of my favourite tracks:

KMS 047   Shakir's  Shock Therapy


easily his best work that I own (IMO)

Goddam! Percussion was flyin' everywhere, and those nasty synth stabs,
sheeitt!

I don't know if that's when peoples stuff started to come on or what, but
the place was suddenly jackin'!


Incidentally does anyone know or have any more info for Shakir recording as
K.O.T. on Black Bottom records?

I think he did a track called The Jit for the label?

Is it his hip hop stuff?

 for Detroit list members Is the Jit still an acceptable manouvre on
Detroit dancefloors?

Peace,

doing new things with old forms - pushing the limits of commercial

Exact definitions aside, check out the following hip hop
artists/releases:

Mix Master Mike - 'Anti-Theft Device' 2LP (Asphodel) 1998
killer fully-realised LP of instrumental hip hop, produced by Naut Humon,
taking the idea of turntablism beyond simple tricks and into advanced hip
hop expressionism (or something like that).

Dj Q-Bert - 'Wave Twisters' 2LP (Galactic Butt Hair) 1988
anything Mix Master Mike can do... i can do better, incredible hands-on
vinyl  digital manipulation, like 'Anti-Theft Device' this is inspired
instrumental hip hop.

Company Flow - 'Little Johnny From the Hospital' (Rawkus) 1999
mental hip hop and sticky funk produced by El-P and Mr Len, the 
personality


and expression in this LP is amazing.

Push Button Objects - 'Trot' (off Schematic 003 12)
PBO - 'Non Existant (Gescom mix)' (off Chocolate Indust. 002 12) 1999
PBO - 'Yambooze' (off 'Deeper Concentration' comp, Oxygen Music) 1998
PBO - 'Nocturnal Advice' (off Skam 011 12)
Edgar Farinas has been producing some pretty interesting hip hop inspired
stuff for a couple of years, his earlier stuff was more on an electronic
IDM tip... while his newer stuff is moving towards a slightly more
conventional cut-up hip hop sound.

Quite a bit of music is being produced under the 'experimental/IDM' hip hop
banner at the moment... I like the above releases because they play with 
the


stylistic sounds and structure of hip hop, but still keep the tough edge 
and


street soul that most 'real' hip hop has.

newly remodeled and its got a pool too, so get it while its hot !  My 
pick!),

Comfort Inn (1999 e. jefferson - $89.00 - $159.00 USD). I checked the price
for Pontchartrain(correct spelling,  its down to $89.95 USD!!!). I think
there's a Holiday Inn Express or a Howard Johnsons down there too but I'll
check.  Anyway, point your browsers to this link for Days Inn, Comfort Inn 
or

Pontchartrain:

521405309802062001%26LANG%3dEN

Click the word hotel in the book room box in the middle then fill out the
necessary info on the next page...make sure you type jefferson ave on the
next page in the  address field or those hotels may not show up and 
select
within  1 mile vicinity.  Days Inn should pop up, as well as 
Pontchartrain

(and others) which has the special key icon under the price...

The Area:

The area in which these hotels are situated seems like an decent area, well
lit, with their own parking lots.I've been around that area in the 
Fall,

cruisin around there at night and noticed all these hotels, all look
new...very decent.  There are alot of car dealers, residentials...I was 
told
Kenny Larkin and Mills used to live in this area... the US immigration 
office

is there also and a CVS Pharmacy/Food store (24 hours) if you get the
munchies.  Not to mention, a mid-sized plaza somewhere on that street with
all kinds of stores, I think there's a Fuddruckers(sp?) restaurant in the
Plaza too.  If Big Boy's is up your alley, there's one in the area too.  
Just
keep straight down on Jefferson...to just before the entrance bridge to 
Belle
Isle, on the left side of street.  Or check out Shorecrest's famous 
cruisine,

that Mad Mike recommends.

The restaurants I recommend if you want to go further north on Woodward is
Union Street (look for a  green National City sign and parking lot on your
left...great food, very hip, with a bar.  =) Or across the street from that
is The Majestic...had dinner with Adam Beyer and his gf, one of the motor
detroit guys, and Alan, there once...very nice.  Adam and his gf were both
chompin on some very delicious looking, organic salads.  =)

Ok enough blabbing...my apologies, music heads.  Just wanted to give people 
a

rough idea of what to expect ... I hope this helps...if you need any help,
please feel free to email me.  =)

Re: [313] the LONG short of dj sets

2001-02-01 Thread FRED MCMURRY

This hits upon a problem in many DJ communities:


Newcomers let the quality of the set fall ENTIRELY on their records,
instead of using their SKILLS to pump up the crowd.  Give some people
nowadays a crate of records from just 8 years ago  they wouldn't know what 
to do with themselves.


Who is teaching these skills to the newcomers? In my town (not Detroit) most 
DJs are so concerned about getting recognition and respect, and keeping it, 
that they don't share what they know (if they know) with others. The local 
DJ crews are impossible to break into... I have a friend who gave a tape to 
this guy in one collective. The entire collective loved it but my friend was 
bullshitted about being able to spin with them. Promises unfulfilled. He's a 
good DJ and has skills to share as do the guys in the collective but since 
they are so selective (rejective?) there is no chance of cross-pollination 
of ideas. Where do many newcomers learn to spin? I'd say from listening to 
mix CDs which are usually made to shift product which means they let the 
entire song play out and use computer programs to mix. Only recently has 
there been a fair amount of CDs that have the live sound (short mixes, 
spinbacks, hard cuts, mixes that aren't seamless). So I guess the point is 
established DJs need to share skills with others, it worked for jazz.


Which brings me to another topic...that last episode of the Jazz series from 
PBS...did they just ignore some of the best Jazz of the last 20-30 years? 
Nice job of slamming Cecil Taylor too. Brandford Marsalis should go stick 
his horn up his ass. He completely contradicted himself as well when 
refering to John Coltrane vs Cecil Taylor. And another thing, Sun Ra? Where 
was he? Don Cherry?
It was interesting how they retreated to the safety of Ellington and Satchmo 
evertime they discussed newer non-traditional jazz. As much as I love both 
of those guys (more than words can say) I was very offended by the ommision 
of some of the most intriguing music ever made.

After reading this thread for a while now, I would like to respond to
Lester's original post..;  IMO, you see records being played out longer 
than

before (i.e. the 80's) due to the fact that dj's just aren't quick mixing 
with the energy like they used to; doing tricks, taking chances, etc... the
records being made today do all the work for you (95% of which, IMO, are
quite 2-dimensional /or gimmicky..).
In addition, this is still TOO much work for some people who don't want to
get off their ass- the same people who are creating ways to mix on their
computer;  now they don't EVER have to leave their desk to be a dj!! 
(Sorry,

this is an entirely different thread...)

cTo me, I would rather hear someone using

THEIR
creativity with a bunch of deep, sick tracks (see Traxx, Dj Hell, Theo,
Carlos Souffront, etc.) to make a special moment on the dancefloor rather
than the latest remix of (insert your fave cheesy childhood pop song here)
played next to the flavor of the moment ravehouse/salsa/buildup/trance
amalgam again  again.  Going to Motor is quite the museum for this
nowadays, djs who used to beat it for 13 years now play the latest greatest
hands-in-the-air cut that the guy last week played (or the guy who opened).
So long as you can beat match nowadays  you got those 20 current tunes
that'll make the glow sticks move faster, make a tape  send it to (insert
your fave club from the D here..)!!  It doesn't matter if you have style 
all

your own, you will only get paid 1/3 of what the big names get (even though
they just started playing this cheesy recently too (shhh.. don't tell!!)).
But I digress.
In response to...


I too hate the 'look mama how many records I can squeeze into an
hour'-style.


Well, true.  Anyone who is playing that many *just* for the sake of doing
so... is a moron.  I do however think that some up  comers need to be
trained as to when enough is enough-- 8 minutes of Jaguar and counting...


the more i read this, the more i ask myself if you guys have ever heard
a really
superb dj (which e.g. jeff mills is a solarsystem away from).

And finally someone who dares to say that Jeff Mills is not God behind the
decks.


Mills never claims to be God, why would you listen to anyone quoting such
tripe?  However if you're denying Mills' ability as an exquisite dj and
artist, I would be curious to see who is 'superb' in your book.
You know I heard Oakenfold is pretty smooth.  Same for Guiness Stout and
babies' bottoms...


Smoothness all the way baby!

practice a few months in their bedroom and think their ready to play in

matching and track transitions.  good for them for being confident enough

 spinbacks, hard cuts, mixes that aren't seamless). So I guess the point 
is

 established DJs need to share skills with others, it worked for jazz.

Definitely. With jazz the communal spirit was most evident in the late 60s
and early 70s and that seemed to be a necessary response to a lack of
commercial opportunities. Even Lee Morgan, who had a fairly mainstream
sound, was getting involved. Some great music came about this way, and in
the face of extreme financial pressure. Sun Ra's massive entourage lived on
meagre amounts in a dilapidated house in Philadelphia and made some of the
most way ahead of it's time music ever. In Detroit there was Marcus 
Belgrave
and all the Tribe lot, who gathered local musicians (in the wake of 
Motown's

departure to LA) and put out self financed LPs, put on music workshops etc.
There's the well known example of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, too. This
sort of thing is in spirit what UR are doing just now. Strip away the
guerrilla imagery and you see it's a pretty apt metaphor for what they 
*are*

doing: their urban regeneration, promotion of unknown local talent etc.
Arguably, UR are also pretty commercially successful for their genre, too,
so it doesn't require the financial asceticism. It's a method that works in
all kinds of ways. And I wish it was an example more people stuck to: get
involved with like minded souls (DJs, folk with sound systems, promoters),
and don't d**k them over, just to get yourself ahead. Not only is it a s**t
thing to do as a person, but it's a stupid thing to do, as well. As you can
see, then: IMnsHO, Jazz is the teacher :)

Jonny - should put up or shut up, FJ? ;)

P.S. As for the Burns documentary, it does seem outrageous. We won't get it
for a while, but I have heard enough for me to be watching it with teeth
firmly clenched in advance. The dig at Cecil Taylor seems particularly
gratuitous. It sounds like he was only there to be knocked down.

borrowed a copy from a friend and have grown quite fond of it, and i get a
kick out of the samples from ferris beuller.  plus there are some pretty
nice locked grooves that are good dj tools:  you can go from one side of
orange to a yellow locked groove, and then flip orange (its the same bpm)
to the other side and quickly mix it in.  sounds pretty good IMO.  so now

interested in it's historically popular incarnation.

I like this post more, though, because it contains a valuable general

 One of the figures being bandied about in the
 orchestrated pr campaign for the series is that jazz
 now makes up 2% of the market instead of the 70% it
 had years ago. Commentators are using that as proof of
 jazz's fall from popularity.

 When Zero Saturns are in print, Sun Ra gets 0% of the market.

 when some saturns are in print, he gets a certain % of the jazz market

 when ALL the Saturns are in print, he gets his fair share of the
market..

 and that applies to *every* jazz artist..


 more people are looking for albums to pop into print, and if they aint 
in
 print, they aren't in *any* form of the market cept the rare used bins 
at

 record stores on infrequent occasions


 my theory for jazz getting 'more' popular has everything to do with 
albums

 getting more obtainable when  stuff like CD's breathe old wine into new
 bottles, when the old bottles on vinyl are too scarce.. and when
record
 companies keep the slow sellers in print, long enough, they get to be
 stable bits of obtainable history available at any record store, ready 
to

 be fruitful and multiply into the listening music of the future.


 if anything the series might be good for getting everything Armstrong 
back

 into print with his 'possible' 100th birthday. and improving the market
for
 more books 'on jazz', and the repercussions could be bit more interest 
in

 record companies giving jazz a little more 'in-printdom'...

 But what exactly is being compared here? One would
 figure that jazz making up 70% of the recording market

 And how much of that 70% is dance/swing music...

 and do we wanna compare the Music World of Tommy Dorsey to the world of
 Joshua Redman?
 do we compare the sales figure of Big Bill Broozy to Keb Mo, and talk
about
 the death of Acoustic Chicago Blues?

 I think the problem is that people like to use numbers like that because
 they're wanting to compare jazz to the latest and greatest factors in
 musical culture, not to mention the fads and pressures of record labels 
to

 'do something'

 I think what we should worry about is what is good music, and we'll let
the
 numbers and popular take care of themselves.. All you need are 
record

 companies to allow the past and present to be *clearly shown* so there

 *is*

 a future.

Here's another one from the same Mancuso mix and it's _got_ to be from 
Detroit:


starts up around 16:13 minutes with a Reese style bassline, then vibes, a 
female vocal that sounds like it's saying Let's Go, heavy tribal beats, a 
male vocal saying work - work - work then the female saying surrender

vocal continues to say work it.

If it's Derrick May or Kevin I'll be rather embarrassed.

Re: [313] Bass booty ?

2000-12-22 Thread FRED MCMURRY

that 'little dick' song, whoever wrote it


Are you thinking about the Short Dick Man track by DJ Funk? That has got 
to be one of the funniest tracks ever made. My friend has a copy that he 
keeps because it's just too damn funny not to. Plus it's not some guy saying 
Pop that  or some other crap. It's actually about two women talking 
about the size of some guy's privates and how it's the smallest thing 
they've ever seen. It's still raunchy and lowest common denominator... kinda 
like a Howard Stern Show put to music.

I love the rawness of the music but the lyrics leave me vacant.
I prefer stuff that uplifts everyone and is sensual... not sexual.
Although... if you want something from a female perspective check out 
Peaches. I saw her live with Gonzales and she is raw and nasty without being 
lewd. Sophisticated porn music? She only had an 808 as accompaniment. The 
music had that hard jacking sound and the lyrics are nasty but somehow 
coming from a woman it was really cool.

You can find her stuff on Kitty-YO! Records @ http://www.kitty-yo.com/

Otherwise Booty Bass is just what emma said it is...

I will add my favorite jazzy Detroit(ish) techno:

Anything on the Ferox label but these in particular-
Adventures In Techno Soul - various artists (Ferox)
Further Adventures In Techno Soul  - same as above
Ian O'Brien - Monkey Jazz (Ferox)

Ian O'Brien - Gigantic Days (Peacefrog)

Anything by Chris Gray (which actually crosses over into house but whose 
paying attention ot boundries, eh?)


Ken Ishii - Circular Motion (RS)

Slam Mode - Clouds (again into the house realm but this is so far gone, way 
out and soft as a marshmellow.)


Heiko Laux  Johannes Heil - No Gain No Pain (i220)
Heiko Laux - No Gain No Pain (remixes) (i220)

There is also stuff on the Swim~ label
http://www.kleber.net/swim/swim.html
that falls into this area most notably artists like Lobe, Mark Gage, and G 
Man (Gez Varley of LFO)


Although I wouldn't really call Metroplex's 24 (Starlight) jazzy. It's more 
in the dub/basic channel pigeonhole.

Re: [313] Publications

2000-12-17 Thread FRED MCMURRY
Uhm, the Rough Guide to Techno and the Rough Guide to House aren't bad. The 
problem with any publication (in book form) is that it takes __at least__ a 
year to get it out to the public and we all know how fast these genres 
evolve. So you may pick up a book and find that the latest ground breaking 
artist isn't there or find that big beat is going to be the saviour of 
dance music.


Fred

P.S. There are far more books on the scene than there are about the music. 
Techno and house just doesn't lend itself to writing about the personalities 
and anecdotes like rockn'roll or jazz do. This is what fills pages and 
techno and house jusst don't have them (yet).

Re: [313] Rhythms and begats

2000-12-12 Thread FRED MCMURRY

Re:

 Look at Blues...it begat Bluegrass,

...and then it begat blueberries, right?   Blues has little to do with
bluegrass.   The former is based in African folk traditions, the latter
AFAIK in largely Irish traditions relocated to the American south (with 
the noted addition of the African Banjo).


You can't really say that Bluegrass is derived _directly_ from the Blues but 
it did influence it as much as Gospel and regional (European descendant) 
Folk music did. Read on for more info on Bill Monroe who was the creator of 
Bluegrass music.



http://music.lycos.com/default.asp?DA=0QW=Bill+MonroeAID=18536MID=19357P=B

Bluegrass was created (?) by Bill Monroe (William Smith Monroe, b. 13 
September 1911, on a farm near Rosine, Ohio County, Kentucky, USA, d. 9 
September 1996, Springfield, Tennessee, USA)


Monroe also played with a black blues musician, Arnold Schultz, who was 
to become a major influence on his future music.



and hey! look! a Detroit connection:

elder brothers Harry and Birch ...headed north, working for a time in the 
car industry in Detroit, before moving to Whiting and East Chicago, Indiana, 
where they were employed in the oil refineries.


appearing as the Monroe Brothers...They became a very popular act and sang 
mainly traditional material, often with a blues influence.


During the early 40s, Monroe's band was similar to other string bands such 
as Mainer's Mountaineers, but by the middle of the decade, the leading 
influence of Monroe's driving mandolin and his high (some would say shrill) 
tenor singing became the dominant factor, and set the Blue Grass Boys of 
Bill Monroe apart from the other bands. This period gave birth to a new 
genre of music, and led to Monroe becoming affectionately known as the 
Father of Bluegrass Music.



Rock n' Roll...then you have Jazz to Raggae, etc.

You're missing a couple key ingredients here:
Swing+Motown=Ska   Ska begat Reggae once equipment got cheaper, and 
Jamaican

cops came down on the clubs (sound familiar?).


Where are you getting your music history from?
Try this:
Reggae is a music unique to Jamaica, but it ironically has its roots in New 
Orleans RB. Reggae's direct forefather is ska, an uptempo, rhythmic 
variation based on the New Orleans RB that Jamaican musicians heard as 
broadcasted from the US on their transistor radios. Relying on skittering 
guitar and syncopated rhythms, ska was their interpretation of RB and it 
was quite popular in the early '60s. However, during one very hot summer, it 
was too hot to either play or dance to ska, so the beat was slowed down and 
reggae was born.

http://www.bobartsinstitute.edu/Reggae.htm



And Western cultures are not completely without rhythm.  The drum is core 
to

almost all traditions.  Celtic, Native American, etc.


Yes, that is true but it's largely not syncopated rhythm like that of Latin 
or African countries. Otherwise known as the Funky drummer.


Why all this struggle to compartmentalize?  It's a glorious soup.  Enjoy 
it

for that.


That's true...although it's good to know what the ingrediants are that make 
it so damn tasty! :)


What the hell was this thread originally about anyway?

Re: [313] no sense...but not unexpected

2000-12-07 Thread FRED MCMURRY

Re:

There's got to be some explanation for all this.  Other than what was
mentioned here before about the possibly of some marketing guy from Ford 
dug

techno;


I highly doubt it was anyone at Ford who originaly thought up this 
concept...the advertising agency that Ford contracted is responsible for 
that, not Ford Motor Company. The ad agency saw a link between 
FordDetroitTechno and they then came up with a concept for the ad and then 
presented it to the marketing people at Ford in what is commonly called a 
pitch. The techno guy was most likely at the ad agecny, not Ford Motors.


As far as writing to ABC about this poll...
Does anyone think that they are going to redo the website with Jeff Mills, 
Oliver Ho, and Dave Clarke as choices? I can just imagine if they did most 
tossers looking at those choices would screw up their faces in absolute 
confusion as to who the hell their choices were.


Does anyone on 313 think about going to the ABC website, of all places, to 
answer a poll on your favorite techno artist?


Does this poll matter really? Is it going to change how techno music is 
going to sound?


Fer chris'sake they just use the word techno because it's a catch-all.
If they used the word 'house' nobody would know what the hell they were 
talking about...favorite house band? you mean like the dudes who play those 
Skynard covers down at Joe's Bar and Grill?


Yeah, I was upset for a moment about thisfor a moment.
It's the same as with jazz music. Most people think that Brian Setzer and 
his Orchestra and clones are really swing jazz. They aren't even close. Do I 
care? Does it degrade the swing jazz I listen to? No friggin way it does! I 
know Setzer can't even touch the dirt that Ellington and others walked on.


Write in to ABC if you want but I think your time and energy could be better 
spent other ways.

Re: [313] err...

2000-12-07 Thread FRED MCMURRY

I think that was a Honda comercial that had the raver types
but anyone breathing today would have to be either blind and deaf, a media 
hermit, or clueless to have not been exposed to images of ravers or 
electronic dance music of one genre or another being used in whatever media 
format. So it's not even a question of putting anything together to get the 
Ford Focus commercial. Any marketing department that doesn't include rave 
culture (as they call it) in their campaigns is going to lose out. They 
know it, we know it. The big question is: Are you buying it?


Fred

PS The next wave will most likely be throw-backs to the 80's. I ain't 
joking.




When Ford first started airing the Ford ads late 1999 they showed the
small hatchback model pulling into a parking garage.  A group of raver
types are sitting in the car, the car being squished between two cars
parked too close.  So they pop the hatch and clumb out the back, all the
while a house track is playing in the background.  So it could be the
marketing people put two and 2.5 together a while ago.

 And with Ford's current ad campaign theme, it's no surprise either that
 they decide to sponsor such an award, even though they know it's not the
 real techno. In any case, it's the closest thing at the AMA they have
 for reaching the intended target audience. Assuming they show the ad
 during the awards, it will certainly make people wonder what Detroit
 Techno is. Then it's up to 'us' show them what it all is about (and not
 flame polite-but-ignorant newbies like what happened to that raver kid a
 few weeks ago!).

Is the ad I'm referring to the one y'all are talking about?

h,

here's an issue I was talking about today with some friends...

There is now a program out that will mix MP3's for you, you can see the 
wave

so you can do visual mixing, and it beat matches for you...

to prove the impact to me, he found a site that has all the latest tracks
out of the UK scene in MP3 form for free, down loaded all the latest Hooj
Chunes (not my personal choice you know, but what could I do??!!), and
within 30 minutes, had a slammin' mix CD burned, all made of brand new
tracks...

no tables, no records, nothing, and the thing is, the CD was well 
composed,,

and sounded great...

any take on this?

BTW, the program is at www.mixmiester.com

darw_n

create, demonstrate, toneshift...

Re: [313] trading on napster / digital mixing

2000-11-30 Thread FRED MCMURRY
I do think it will be a while before anyone is able to do the tricks ala 
Claude Young, DJ Craze, Kid Koala, Scratch Pickles, Cox, any other 
turntablist. Digital still doesn't have that sound that vinyl has. It's 
hard to fake it.
When anyone starts talking about a well worn format going away I really have 
to doubt it. Vinyl will never go away 100%. People will want to produce on 
it because of the tangability of it, the collectable factor (mp3s will never 
fetch the amount of money some vinyl does), and the warm analogue sound.

 I don't stick with it for sentimental reasons, its the simplicity that
 attracts me...

whose to say a simpler, more intuitive interface can't be created?

 Oh, and your record will never crash, or you needle with never have an 
irq

 conflict...

your records can warp, your needles can break.  There are problems with
every medium.

Imagine if there was a good digital solution!  You wouldn't have to spend
thousands of dollars on a lathe and $30 for a blank acetate that wears out
after 20 plays.

The point that everyone's missing is that a better solution can be
devised.  True, vinyl is still the best solution.  But we're quickly
approaching a point where it won't be anymore.  it won't be long till
someone comes up with a truly elegant and intuitive interface for mixing
digitally.

Pretending it won't happen is silly.

Re: [313] drumcode, utility plastics

2000-11-20 Thread FRED MCMURRY
Check the archives of 313 for the info on Utility Plastics. There was a 
long thread about Utility and User records. dk is most likely Dahlback 
and Krome. Jasper Dahlback and Thomas Krome. They ususally go by dk (in 
lower case letters like that) when they produce together. Thomas Krome also 
runs the fabulous Corb label. Jasper Dahlback usually does deep jazz house, 
real light night stuff, on Svek when he's off on his own. Together they also 
run dk records...check out the Stjartlapp website on all things Sveedish.

http://emil.techno.org/
The original is titled Remainings III which was a Adam Beyer production if 
I'm not mistaken (I do think he had Remainings I and II previously). Beyer 
does run Drumcode so I can say that with 99% certainty.

Re: [313] FOCUS DETROIT TECHNO/STREET EDITION

2000-11-15 Thread FRED MCMURRY
Ford owns Jaguar automobiles as well as some others (Volvo, Autin Marten, 
Mazda...) but why the hell would they put a Jaguar on their Ford brand cars? 
That's like putting a Rolls Royce label on a Toyota. Does it have anything 
to do with the UR tune? I couldn't see them really trying to connect on this 
level. It's just too deep a connection (Detroit Techno = UR's Jaguar) for a 
company to try and market it this way. Doesn't make sense.

Apparently the 'Sony Ltd. Edition' Focus features European

British racing green. But, I hear the highway performance is

Re: [313] Focus Commercial

2000-11-15 Thread FRED MCMURRY
I think you're right about that interpretation Dan. It's only if you have 
prior knowledge of the tune and it's origins that you understand the double 
meaning of Detroit Techno  Ford Focus. What can be said is that someone at 
the ad agency is a techno fan. It's usually someone within the ad agency 
scouting out potential music sourcesnot within the company being 
advertised. The Ford spot might be a different case, but from my experience 
in the ad business it works this way. Someone in the ad agency's creative 
department has a big smile on their face right now because they are a techno 
fan and they got to finally do what they wanted to...express their love for 
techno.

think shorthand for detroit technology.

Somewhat of a nebulous headline, but I've read a lot worse.

wanting to see it here in the states. I checked out the site
televisioncommercials.com to see if they added it yet to their

Re: [313] Ford and Atkins

2000-11-14 Thread FRED MCMURRY

Finally,
I saw the commercial spot last night on VH1 and checked the Ford Motor 
company site today (www.ford.com) checking for two things: a Quicktime video 
of the commercial (most companies will have this on their pages after airing 
a new broadcast advert) and some kind of acknowledgement of the track being 
used (like VW did with Nick Drake's Pink Moon). I found neither.
While I thought the tv spot was good and the music editing was very good, I 
was really disappointed not to see anything about either the music or the ad 
on Ford's website...did anyone else check their website for these things?
On the Focus 247 page there is a catagory for music (it's kind of a 
lifestyle section to go with the car). What's on it? Friggin' Garth 
Brooks!
Obviously, the commercial doesn't signal a huge revolutionary change in 
direction for Ford. It's a tv spot that will air for a while then disappear 
quietly. That's it...then it's back to trainspotting and next gigs here on 
313. So I don't think we should get our undies in a bunch and wonder if this 
means the end of good techno and the corporate mind control machine taking 
over.

For the time we should be happy that Mr. Atkins is gettin' some green.

 Damn, Kent, why can't you just be glad that Ford is using Juan's music

a
 MAJOR commercial, and hopefully paying him accordingly ???

 That kind of mass recognition is long past due for the Godfather of

 And isn't it the POINT that you're gratified by knowing it's Juan's 
track

 underneath the commercial and the masses don't ? Would you be more happy
if
 they were using a Crystal Method or Fatboy Slim or Moby track like they 
do

 everything else? Dang, let the man have his due, for God's sakes.



I also saw this commercial last night and the subsequent list discussion
today.
It seems to me that Ford was saying two things...

An acknowledgement of the forward thinking and innovative aspect related to
Detroit Techno - the music

AND

Ford's own attempt to impress that they're trying to innovate with their
offerings (in particular the Focus) with their own
Detroit Techno(logy) within the automotive realm.

The music isn't doesn't have sole possession of the term Detroit
Techno(logy)
seeing as cars have been built there for the longest time..
think of it this way too.. Before the electronics and computer companies
of Silicon Valley identified that region as a technological center in the
US
Detroit with its automotive industry was able to say that long before
this current age

I think they were giving props to both the music and their own
products... in some way...

I guess I think too much, and hope for the best..

Personally, I think that the music is more Audi TT than Ford Focus...

Don't make this a side thread please.

So forth and so on

I personally have just recently purchased a ZX2 after considering the 
Focus,

but my wife decided that the focus was ugly.  If they had started this
campaign earlier, Ford would have sold one more Focus...

RE: [313] Jaguar in UK charts

2000-10-19 Thread FRED MCMURRY

I'm really confused about this
We're all so proud of the fact that UR is underground but then bitch that it 
doesn't make it further than 43 in the UK _POP_ charts?


Please


Fred





  I'm surprised that no-one has mentioned this yet but
  'Jaguar' debuted at
  number 43 in the UK pop chart on sunday, much much lower
  than I personally
  expected. Anyone got any thoughts on why?

  Maybe the fact that the release date was put back a week had
  something to do
  with it? (It was originally scheduled for Oct 3rd, then went
  back to Oct
  9th)

  Another possible reason might be that the promotion wasn't
  adequate. For
  example, it was handled in the UK by a company called
  Sainted PR, who,
  whilst a big music PR company, aren't exactly known for their techno
  activities - they usually do guitar bands and dance pop etc.
  My man Jonas
  Stone at Phuture Trax did the UR party a couple of years
  back, and does all
  the Tresor and Mills releases etc, so I (and he, actually) would have
  thought he should have been the obvious choice. Apparently
  Sainted got it as
  a result of the distribution deal 430 West/UR hooked up.
  Mind you, there
  have been plenty of Rolando interviews in the last crop of
  music mags her,
  so...

  Also, there was no real advertising to speak of. Azzido Da
  Bass 'Doom's
  Night' was also released last week and that has entered the
  chart at about
  number 6. The difference is that they have a massive
  promotional campaign
  behind them - Nottingham, where I live, is covered with
  flyposters, just as
  it was for the release of Zombie Nation's 'Kernkraft 400'.

  Anyone got any thoughts on this? Whatever, I guess it's
  unlikely ot go much
  higher. Records don't tend to climb the chart slowly these
  days like they
  used to. Instead they tend to enter, then slide downwards.

  Tom MF

its a very sad state of affairs and it needs to be addressed,

apart from stacy pullen at the plus 8 classics night at the end on 4th nov

is the detroit  sound redundant in england now, or can it resurface?

Anyway, amongst others, there was one that said you know you're a

tribal sounds of a washing machine.


I used to work at a Kinko's and I found that environment was a rich source 
of metal on metal beats. Folding machines, multiple large Xerox machines 
churning out copies wich big ka-chung sounds, the hum of computers, staple 
machines, the high pitch zip sound of color copiers

it was the only redeeming character of that place.
I made several poor quality tapes of the sounds for future use.

Re: [313] who stole the soul?

Re:

Just look at labels like Transmat, Planet E, Underground Resistance,
Axis, Pure Sonik, Minus, Red Planet, Direct Beat, 430 West,
Purpose Maker etc.  There are a good 4 or 5 differnt styles of
Electronic Music right there, but due to the fact that they are all

Don't bother reading the newest (?) issue of Mixmag...the issue about dance 
music in the US (cover has a woman with the Stars and Stripes painted over 
her mug). The only label to get in their list of biggest US labels was 
Planet E. I supposed, though, going up against Moonshine, Ultra, OM,

Subject: [313] who stole the soul?
Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2000 12:39:44 -0400 (EDT)

 The reason people are not coming to the club anymore is because detroit
 is not making music that is so vibrant and irresistible that people feel
 they need to be at our gigs. Detroit needs to go back to Deep Space and
 bring something back that is so out there that people will go nuts for
 it.

I dont know, i have to disagree.  Everytime I start thinking that Detroit
Techno has become monotonous, and following the same old patterns, I see
something, or hear something that totally reminds me why I am proud to be
a Detroiter.  For example, the first time I heard jaguar, the first time
I saw T-1000 spin, the first time I heard Red Planet, the first time I
heard Changes of Life, Kevin Sandurson's last set at Motor- I was moved
and inspired on different levels each time. I knew Detroit had not only
the rich musical History, but has the abilty to progress, and make music
that can not only be appreciated by Ekko Thugs, and Kandi Kids, but by
Detroits own Techno elitists.

Also keep in mind that there are hunderds of thousands of kids in the
Detroit are and millions across the world who know nothing about our
music, and once they are exposed to it, are completely changed.  To some
of us, this old school sound is still completly new, and we cant get
enough of it.

One of the reasons why I am so into the music here though is its great
diversity.  Just look at labels like Transmat, Planet E, Underground
Resistance, Axis, Pure Sonik, Minus, Red Planet, Direct Beat, 430 West,
Purpose Maker etc.  There are a good 4 or 5 differnt styles of Electronic
Music right there, but due to the fact that they are all made in Detroit,
we just call them all techno.  Our music is always evolving and
constantly changing yet still keeping that soul, that funk that this town
was built on.

Sorry if this comes off as too cheesey, but this is a debate I constanty
get in with trance and house fans, so its easy for me to just rant.

Re: [313] Moby

oh sh*tno pleaseI try to get out but they keep pulling me back in!
All I have to say is this (directly quoted from page 109 of the Oct 2nd Time 
magazine):


A SOUL TO KEEP by Julie Rawe
What's an eternal soul fetching these days? The one belonging to 
electronica artist MOBY went for a paltry $41 when it was auctioned last 
week on eBay by a former longtime friend. Indie-film director Paul Yates 
claims Moby has been selling out: all 18 songs on his platinum album, PLAY, 
have been licensed for use in commercials and TV shows ranging from Nissan 
ads to Dawson's Creek. Yates also alleges that Moby is trying to doctor his 
image: the musician is now distancing himself from Yates' upcoming comedy, 
PORNO, which includes a scene of Moby playing guitar with two sex toys 
strapped to his head. As executive producer, Moby no longer agrees with the 
film creatively, his manager says. And if the film never makes it to 
theaters, perhaps copies will pop up on eBay.

Moby, 28, will also be writing a special dance-track for an Astro

Nick

Well go as far to say it's close to trance...


How so? Everything is three steps off from one style or the other.


I know Julesy was playing The Mole a few months back...
Lots of UK trance dj's play that kinda stuff...


And they are also banging out Jaguar...guilt by association?
The UK trance DJs are playing these tracks in their sets because the 
trance stuff coming out now has run it's course and people are looking for 
something with more guts. It's not that this music is closer to trance 
(albeit, some early Hybrid tracks approached it back in '95 but so did loads 
of techno) it's just that the DJs ears are looking for something with more 
than just a bunch of drum rolls. Just because Jules plays The Mole doesn't 
make it trance. Hell, if he started dropping Inner City Good Life would 
that make it trance as well?

Re: [313] Let's Talk Techno

I must agree with Cyclone on this one. Moby is the pop poster boy of techno. 
He's insanely jealous of the Detroit artists (it was evident when I talked 
to him about it) and that whole punk rock record he made was a complete 
mistake. His agent told him to get back into dance music because it was what 
people liked so he did it otherwise he might still be trying to be punk.
He even said at one time, though he won't admit it (and I tried to get him 
to come clean about it), that he _left_ dance music because it was boring 
and all the wrong people were getting attention (at the time it was Aphex 
Twin) and that intelligent techno was getting all the attention and he 
thought it didn't deserve it.
His attempt at making emotional music is pretty blatent minor key classical 
rip-offs. Go was interesting but not ground-breaking. The one track with, 
what was it, 1000 bpms? Wow, really stretching it there (sarcasim). The 
music sounds nice at times but I really think he follows what will put him 
in the spotlight and then wrapping himslef in a cloak of mystery and the 
little loser act to get sympathy (like that other wanker Morrisey).
Which he isn't, he's one rich mutherf*cker. To compare his work to St. 
Germain is an insult to St. Germain and music with guts. I've seen him live 
several times and had the chance to see him rehearse his act before the 
actual live show. I saw and heard absolutely no improvisation or real heart 
and soul displayed...very choreographed. Even his jams on the bongos were 
worked out before hand.
After talking with him and doing extensive background research on him I 
really do feel that he would be doing something else if dance music wasn't 
paying his bills.

I also agree with Gwendal, Moby's last album Play is very enlightening, 
not
unlike Garnier's last one, it plays with a whole range of electronic 
styles,

and reminds me of some early St. Germain.

I just don't get the Moby is a pioneer argument myself.

You know the story of that album, don't you? Moby went out to his local
chain store bought two CDs of old blues/gospel samples and thought aha and
viola.

You could do it. Even Puffy is more original as at least he devised an
aesthetic (hip-hop soul) and didn't just sample.

And as for Moby's live shows, well.

Now Garnier, there IS a genius.

other.

I love 'em, but has anyone noticed these two things?

  From World Pop.Com
  Two of dance music's leading techno DJs were involved in a fierce
  battle behind the turntables at the Creamfields festival yesterday.
  Dave Clarke and Richie Hawtin, who for many years have attacked each
  other in the press, found themselves coming to blows over Clarke's
  remix of Ibiza anthem, Zombie Nation.
 
  Clarke closed his set by playing his remake of the track twice,
  winding up Hawtin who despises the record. Hawtin then approached
  Clarke and stuck his middle finger up to his face and a heated
  exchange of words ensued.
 
  Hawtin then took to the turntables, stopped Clarke's remix mid-flow,
  picked up the record and threw it across the Bugged Out arena.
  Clarke, visibly stunned by Hawtin's behaviour, simply lifted up his
  box of records and left the festival

has anyone listened to the jesper dahlbäck cd from the stockholm mix

if you listen to the first track with us around by nordelius  ressle,
there is a strange squeaky sound. my brother said that he realized what the

Re: [313] Underground (was Re: [313] Pooh-blahs)

2000-08-17 Thread FRED MCMURRY

RE:
Not necessarily my rebuttal, but an interesting one, from Jeremy Gilbert 
and Ewan Pearson quoted without permission from Discographies - Dance 
Music, Culture, and the Politics of Sound:
The only reason for staying underground is that in relation to dominant 
structures of power, you are weak.  To celebrate that weakness rather than 
to try to overcome it is  to concede social authority to those dominant 
discourses.  It is, in fact, to _choose_ too remain in a subordinate 
position and to condemn others to a similar position.


Very nice use of that quote. I have yet to read that book but it just went 
to the top of my list. That statement really puts all this keep it real, 
keep it underground bullshit to the test. I don't think there are too many 
artists who wouldn't jump at the chance of having some kind of chart/popular 
success.
If you really want to stay underground don't make a website, don't tell 
anyone about your music (or any other artists), don't try to distribute, 
basically don't disseminate any info about who you are or what you're doing. 
The minute you put up a web site you are trying to get some kind of 
popularity.
I think the REAL underground can only be witnessed first hand, and not a lot 
of acts out there go this route because it's hard (if not impossible) to 
make a living doing it. I'm not saying that everyone is in it for the money 
but anyone who records likes to see their records sell. It's the artist who 
doesn't record their work in one form or another (for whatever reason) that 
is truely underground. Imagine a DJ that only plays white label test 
pressings that have no intention of ever being released for sale or promo. 
That is a strong statement. Being underground is a very radical stance to 
take. The problem is that the word has become a way to declare yourself 
hipper than others. The way that most people use underground just means 
that their favorite artist isn't as widely known as Britney Spears. But it 
doesn't nessacarily make their fav. any more talented either.

I think 'underground' doesn't mean that you can't sell records, or sign
with a label.  What's exciting to me is the stuff that happens outside
the traditional manufacturing, distribution and publicity systems.
Is Watts Music 'underground?' or Sonic Groove? No. They're brick and 
mortar
businesses whose survival is dependent upon them operating as good 
capitalists.


But they are 'underground' in that that sell outside the retail channels, 
to

specialist stores.  They're way out at the edge of things.  And there is
a consequent strain when people try to make the leap (Detroit Grand 
Pubahs?),

because to really play in that larger mass arena you have to tap into
a whole new structure for distribution.

Re:

cap



Was this in the Modulations video? I don't remember that...I'll have to go 
home and pop it in the VCR again.


Talking about techno videos/tv has anyone ever seen the Space Night program 
on German BR tv, Bayerisches Fernsehen? Elektrolux artsits provide the 
soundtracks to images from outerspace (apparently), and the videos are for 
sale as well. I have some of the Space Night compilations and they are quite 
good.

The website for the shows is:

The more conceptual, intelligent, visionary doc. on Techno music.
Actually, the name of this  aged man is Abdul Haqq(belongs to UR camp),he
has made among million things(walls and roof's artwork at
Submerge...)Interstellar Fugitives artwork.
In this documentary, he was speaking about the 4th dimension, a GREAT
realistic sci-fi story.
I'm still wondering why he doesn't write a book, including some
artworks.

Somewhere midway Derrick May talks to a rather aged man with a Planet E

who describes the existence of a 10th planet and how it's meant to
represent
this music we called techno.

I still wonder how much more he knows.

RE:

Currently she's touring with the Architectura show and that has had a long 
tour schedule so I doubt she's currently working on anything, but of course 
I could be wrong.
BTW I saw that show and was disappointed with the live music...found sound 
experiments sound great when you're up late around 3 or 4 am and alone 
f*cking around with effects but when you listen to someone else do it it's 
daft. The found sound guy who is doing the vol 5 of Architectura was utter 
poo live...boring boring boring. The architecture slides and video 
installments were great though...bought the video and the Panacea CD. Wish 
that they used video during the live music parts instead of slides. The 
music was stagnant and it didn't help that they used slides instead of video 
to show the architecture (which was full of implied movement and life). And 
I still don't know why electronic music and architecture seems to go hand in 
hand...which was what the whole presentation was supposed to address. Lots 
of people left halfway through. I stuck it out but I've gotten more out of 
the video I purchased than the entire live presentation.

there was another, much better series, in my opinion, that came out about
3-4 years ago sponsered by the rock and roll hall of fame, and experience
music project, that had an episode dedicated to the perfect beat...it
included hip-hop, techno, house, electro, kraftwerk etc...and interviews
with, derrick may, frankie knuckles, run-dmc, beastie boys, de la soul, new
order, africa bambaata etc...very informative in the general sense,
definately not as centered on the modern electronic music scene as
modulations is.

One that comes to mind is that BBC-one, the final episode in that
Rock'N'Roll TV-series documentary (don't remember the name), where May


Dancing in the Street was the name of that one. The chapter focusing
James Brown/funk/pfunk was also really good for an Aussie white(ish)boy
like
me who knew not an awful lot about the history of the music.

out.

Yes, there is but I can't think of the track. However, I think Grace Jones 
first used that line. Seriously.

 If no one has got to this yet, the track is a Cajmere track that came 
out on
 (I think it was) LIVE, a short-lived sub-label of Cajual in their final 
days
 (the first time around). If I'm not mistaken there were two LIVE 
releases.
 One featured Lookin' for a man, the other featured, Lookin' like a 
man,

 feelin' like a  woman. Unfortunately, I can't find anything right nw
 because I'm in a transitory state for the next month. I know nothing 
about

 the availability of either.

Re: [313] millshouse?

2000-07-30 Thread FRED MCMURRY

Re:
I hear a 'housier' shift in his [Jeff Mills] music myself, though it is 
still minimal. Maybe we are moving into a new era of techno - the music is 
'deeper' and more melodic again.


This can be heard all over the Tresor 8 Comp.

I wish Mills would do more club dates over 'raves'. The crowds are more 
sophisticated.


I agree to a certain extent...kids running around with every piece of their 
clothing either glowing or flashing and their eyes wider than the back end 
of an elephant is very very old news. However, those old enough to drink and 
do so until they fall down the stairs, or are just going out without knowing 
who's playing are just as annoying. This happened with Claude Young here in 
Mpls. (although it was an 18+ show, legal drinking age is 21), lots of 
people dancing to the trance stuff. The light sticks were really flying 
while one of the local DJs was warming up the decks for Young. It looked 
like glowbugs stuck in a tumble dryer down at the laudrette. Then when 
Claude took over, he stopped the silliness cold (yes, I do sometimes think 
all that rave stuff is silly...not always mind you, just at this particular 
moment I certainly did because I had a strong feeling it would stop when 
Claude Young started). He started the beats up and the light sticks and, 
sure enough, all the blinking head visors were GONEthe dance floor 
literally became darker. It was Very interesting to see. In addition, the 
floor opened up because lots of those people left. My conclusion? I don't 
think they were clued in to who he is and the music he plays. On the same 
note, this happens at the raves as well.


The turn-out was small (I think a lot of people are too tired to party 
Friday nights - they want housier sounds instead of techno maybe)...


Funny, seems to be the same situation here. Halfway around the world.
Fridays seems to attract the 'handbag' crowd (nothing wrong with that) and 
Saturday are for the die hards (techno or house or...) because they either 
go out on Friday and Saturday (and possibly Sunday too), or they know that 
every pent-up office worker is going to be out Friday getting pissed, and 
not wanting to be challenged by the music (yes, I think for the most part 
house is less challenging then techno to listen to, not all house, mind you, 
just most that gets club play).


Fred














yet appreciative but I didn't really get
into it (I was not in the mood since everyone had forgotten my birthday and
I had expensive iMac computer repairs to worry about after a  mega crash on
an important deadline!!).

Peace

Cyclone

After a number of listens to every dog... I want to agree with others 
on the
list who have suggested it's a masterpiece. To me it's a new direction 
for
Mills: he combines the floorfriendly momentum of the purposemaker 
releases with
the abstract sounds of his axis stuff to produces a housesound uniquely 
his own

(millshouse, perhaps).

Has anyone heard him play recently? He played Perth about 3 months ago, 
and
while excellent didn't descend into the housier sounds of the lp. Do you 
think
he's signalling a shift in sensibilities with the lp (dj-wise, I mean), 
or

merely presenting another side of himself as producer?

Also, does anyone know the significance of the 'millsart' moniker he uses 
for
this release? I know he's used it before, but not on all the axis 
releases.
Which releases has he used it for, and how are they different to his 
Jeff

Mills releases?

Lots of questions, but releases like these demand them

Cheers

Chris
