(313) Thinnerism???
Anyone know what happened to Thinnerism??? I was waiting for the relaunch back last Oct/November only to see it changed to this November. Anyone know where I can find the old stuff in the Thinner catalog for download?

good article, a little off at times (seriously...

RE: (313) OK Kent, I see your point
this could be argued a bit. I would use Ghettotech as possibly the best example of had to be there kind of music. While the world at large rocks out to GT, unless you were listening to Gary Chandler and the rest of 'em evenings on WJLB from his first appearances in early '91 until GT had fully formed, you can't quite piece together where it came from or why. Maybe I'm putting too much into it, but I believe having been in the clubs back then hearing the progression to full-on ghettotech gives me a different take on GT than maybe someone else who wasn't there. It's likely an association with different events from back then too... Like hearing Coffee Pot (It's Time for the Percolator) on Belle Isle or the 7 mile strip on a Friday night during the summer of '93, or I'll Beat That B_tch With A Bat while cruising down Woodward through Highland Park heading downtown... There IS an essence of certain forms of music that have a had to be there component to fully understand it, but not being a part of that doesn't mean one cannot enjoy the music. I'm sure there's a lot of Reggae that I simply won't get because I was not a part of the struggles of living in Jamaica's slums, but I still enjoy it anyways. -Original Message- From: Jacob Arnold [mailto:ja...@gridface.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2011 7:55 PM To: Thor Teague Cc: Diego Simak; 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) OK Kent, I see your point I agree with Thor--every listener brings their own interpretation to a piece of music. Even the artist might not be able to explain why they created it. I don't think you have to be from Jamaica to appreciate reggae or be from New Orleans to appreciate jazz. These scenes all started local and then gained a wider audience overseas. In fact, I have no doubt European tastes shaped the sound of techno to some extent. If a record with a certain sound sold well in Europe, of course Detroit producers would create other tracks in that style. In any case, I personally think that if you are dancing to it, then you get it.

But that only has as much meaning as you choose to attach to it. ~T On Wed, Jul 6, 2011 at 9:04 PM, Diego Simak diego.si...@gmail.com wrote: What do you guys think about this?

true that this isn't the place (RIP to 313Techknow), however, it's good info that I'll be taking a look at. -Original Message- From: kent williams [mailto:chaircrus...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2011 10:00 AM To: G.

Waves plugins are quite expensive and (I would argue) a real pain to use because of their copy protection. The W1 limiter is a carefully coded clone of the Waves L1 Limiter, and it's free.

RE: (313) Deep Mix: A Void
30 minutes into it and it's nice so far. I dig this kinda stuff a lot. will have to convert to mp3 tho for on the go listening tho. My little Sansa C240 mp3 player that ran Rockbox died recently and I don't see FLAC support with my new Android phone (though I'm sure it's out there and I'm just being lazy).
