 Horribly AWESOME you mean, right?

I'm with Mr. Bean on this one.  To me Vegas is THE weirdest place on Earth.
The fact that it is Nirvana to Middle American just makes it even weirder.
It is filled with human detritus of all shapes and sizes.

There are few reasons to ever visit Vegas if you ask me, other than to go
to the Pinball Museum, drive out to Red Rock Canyon, take a helicopter ride
out to the Grand Canyon, or visit Cube.

Oh yeah - Richie is doing an ENTER.-type thing at Escape From Wonderland

(313) Green Galactic 20th Anniversary with John Tejada/Plaid/Pole June 30th

2013-04-29 Thread Greg Earle
I might be the only living L.A. 313'er left, but just in case I'm not ...

This will be really fun, the Grand Performances outdoor event space at
California Plaza is a perfect place to see a gig on a nice Summer evening.

- Greg

Green Galactic is thrilled to present Pole, John Tejada, and Plaid at our
20 Year Anniversary Celebration as part of Grand Performances summer concert
series at California Plaza in Downtown Los Angeles on Sunday, June 30, 2013
from 7:00pm to 10:00pm.

Dive into a pool of richly hued sights and sounds as we celebrate 20 years
in business with live sets by three of the world's most respected electronic
music artists.  The evening features:

 • The dubby complex rhythms of Berlin-based Pole
 • Visceral experimental soundscapes by Plaid from the UK
 • and the melodic handcrafted Techno of LA’s own John Tejada

This FREE! event will also feature:

• An opening DJ set by Barbara Preisinger
• Projection art by Plaid and Charlene Boehne

Innovative arts and culture promoter Green Galactic was initially created,
two decades ago, on the foundation of electronic music/DJ culture.  As we
celebrate 20 years in Los Angeles, we embrace the firm's roots by sharing
three of our all-time favorite artists with this incredibly creative city
in a truly spectacular venue under the stars.

Yup, precisely why I want to see this one, to see if he'll do it again.

 back catalogue (except for his album on A13 and 'A Fading Memory' off
 'The Toiling Of Idle Hands' album on Immigrant).

I couldn't possibly disagree with this more.

His most recent Parabolas (Kompakt) from last year was pretty much my

I get the Plaid comparisons but I see them as just influences and his stuff is

I found that moment incredibly heartwarming and touching, and - thank goodness

[Sarah] Gregory came to Detroit to paint a wonderful mural on the

(313) Uplifting article on Detroit from Dethlab's Bethany Shorb

2010-07-29 Thread Greg Earle
http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2010/07/freedom_to_make_things.html

I had to pass this along.  While not strictly music-related, my friend Bethany 
is part of the group Dethlab, she is super-talented and has made her home in 
Detroit (in fact, her work studio is just down the block from Transmat) for the 
last 12 years when she could've hightailed it back to the Boston area after her 
degree.

To me she is part of Young Detroit - people trying to do creative things and 
help shape a renaissance of the city, rather than wallowing in Mayoral scandals 
and abandoned buildings and all the troubles that exist.  In short, she kicks 
@ss (and makes the coolest neckties on the planet to boot) and I'm glad to see 
someone post something uplifting about living in the city.

;)

Meanwhile, in 2009 (313) news, Detroit Grand Pubahs blew my brains out  
last weekend, and tonight Telefon Tel Aviv did the same.


The Pubahs were out here for a rare (first time since I saw them in  
2001!) LA appearance.  Times have changed and Andy Toth is no longer  
in tow; Paris' manager from Holland is the Man Behind The (Old Man)  
Mask nowadays.


They had some sound problems (mic missing, owner of the building  
demanding the Funktion One rig be turned almost off, etc.) but before  
an impromptu essaying of vintage Pubahs material with a jet-lagged and  
drunk Paris on the mic, he essentially laptop DJed one of the best  
sets I've heard in ages.  After having been bored sh-tless the  
previous weekend by Mnml it was more than a welcome change.  A good  
time was had by all.


Tonight Joshua brought his remaining half of Telefon Tel Aviv to town  
after a long absence from the left coast.  They were amazing.  Imagine  
Depeche Mode, Death In June, Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark and M83  
trapped in an elevator.  Really loud.


Then I dashed across town to catch John Tejada at Compression, playing  
to a 2/3rds full room.  This just after he played to a thousand people  
in Berlin.  No love from the home team, I tell ya ...

Today is the 10th anniversary of Lynn Hasty's 9-9-99 Public Space  
event at the Park Plaza hotel in LA, featuring Detroit's 7th City  
label.  Tempus fugit, eh?


It was a Thursday night.  The lineup was:

John Tejada (DJ)
DBX (Dan Bell) (live)
Claude Young (DJ)
Anthony Shake Shakir (live)
John Tejada (finishing the night by playing a DAT of his then-new  
tracks)


One of the most amazing nights of Techno I've ever been witness to.

The kicker?



All of 60-odd people showed up.



Lynn (who is John Tejada's fiancée) gave up on putting on gigs shortly  
thereafter.  With a turnout like that, who could blame her?

so happy to be there that I was afraid he was going to spontaneously
combust ...


Oh yeah! That party *still* puts a huge smile on my face. Packed right
from when it started until 6am in the morning. Pure darkness, the only
light being a desk lamp that was barely enough for the DJs to see what
they were putting on, which was a house set to rival the best nights
at Body  Soul.


Holy crap, Otto's back!  Damn, just my luck, financial obligations  
prevented me from coming this year.  But hey - next year, now that  
C2's back in the saddle!  w00t


Hans posted this pic on his Facebook of me, Dan Sicko and Otto down in  
the food court back in 2003:

File alongside Rolando's set during the UR afterparty @ Johansen

REGIS vs FUNCTION live PA
Sandwell District // UK + Berlin

A truly unique operation...SANDWELL DISTRICT

SANDWELL DISTRICT is the underground Techno label of the moment.  With  
support from all quarters (Dettmann + Klock, Laurent Garnier, Jeff  
Mills, and Speedy J to name a few) the label collapses techno's  
boundaries and rebuilds the genre in its own unique image.  As  
stalwarts of the hugely influential label Downwards, Function and  
Regis have pushed the dance music envelope for over a decade.   
Sandwell District however is a beast of its own, a label of the here  
and now.  Pushing new boundaries with each EP, Sandwell has earned  
label of the month in both DJ Mag and Resident Advisor and caused  
waves within the industry.  Function and Regis' approach to live/DJ  
work similarly challenges convention, with a combined digital/analogue  
environment allowing both artists to feed off one another during their  
performance.

(1) Re-read the cruise review (and realize that the poster is a flaming

Kent is mesmerized by green eyes and Scottish accents.  I'm not 
mesmerized by anyone that just prevented me from seeing one of my

Oh yeah baby.  The Droidies do it again:

Saturday November 29th
Droid Behavior presents Interface 24 /// REAL DETROIT TECHNO

DETROIT.TECHNO:HOUSE:ACID:MINIMAL

DJ Rolando
UR : 430 West : Delsin // Detroit

Rolando was born in the 70's in the southwest of Detroit...Mexican
Town. He began DJ-ing as a teenager and earned respect as well as
attention of the Mad Mike Banks. He soon joined the infamous
Underground Resistance and learned his chops as a producer and
performer. In 1999 his release of Knights of the Jaguar broke the
ice and turned archaic perceptions of techno on their head. A cross
genre hit, the song broke boundaries and became an instant classic
with DJ's as diverse as Francois K, Danny Tenaglia, and even Oakenfold.
The record put focus back on the Motor City. Along with his soulful
productions, Rolando has wowed audiences worldwide with his speedy
turntabalism and eclectic sets of funky house, rugged electro, and
deep Detroit techno. Rolando makes his long awaited return to LA 10
years later for this special West Coast appearance. Do not miss this
moment in essential underground.

DJ Bone
Subject Detroit : Metroplex // Detroit

Bone is a true champion of the underground. His uncompromising
attitude and fierce independence have allowed him to play by his own
rules and violate industry expectations. He's a DJ in the true
essence of Detroit style: aggressively skillful, deep, and funky. He
is also a successful producer and runs the highly acclaimed Subject
Detroit label. Bone's performances remind crowds to focus on the DJ by
employing every technique in his masterful arsenal: blends, scratches,
backspins, and his unrivaled use of the fader. This is a lesson not
to be missed.

2008-11-17 Thread Greg Earle

Joel Gajewski wrote:
As sad as it is for life in Detroit, the US auto industry has not 
exactly learned any lessons from the 70's/80's when foreign cars 
started picking up in terms of sales.  Plus, they neglect the American 
market in terms of style, performance and most importantly quality.  
They should have known that their business plans based on large trucks 
and SUV's in the 1990's would only last for so long.


I'm not from Detroit, so Detroiters, feel free to tell me to STFU.

But I do have this observation to make:

I just came back from a 2 1/2 week trek to Tanzania  Zanzibar.

Discounting the usual big Land Rover and Land Cruiser vehicles that are 
the staples of the safari tour co.'s, when it comes to passenger cars 
and non-commercial vehicles, I'd say that at least 95% of the total 
vehicles I saw in that category in the country were Japanese.  I don't 
recall seeing a single GM or Ford vehicle there at all.  While being 
driven to my hotel in Dar es Salaam, we fell in behind a vehicle from 
the American Embassy.  It was a (consumer) Land Cruiser.  Oh the irony.


It seems so simple to fix - the Big 3 should switch to making good, 
cheap (so a lot of the population can afford it) reliable small cars 
that get good gas mileage and that're easy to fix, and do this globally 
so that an ecosystem can spring up around it and ensure that people can 
get them fixed easily if they have problems.


But at the same time, discounting their world-wide presence for a 
moment, the US automakers are at the whims of the American consumer.  If 
suddenly tomorrow GM and Ford and Chrysler sent reps to Tanzania and 
discovered the Japanese blanket coverage there and tried to emulate it, 
what if consumers back home won't buy them?  What if, now that gas is 
down (to $2.65 for Premium out here in LA; undoubtedly less in other 
places, and obviously less than that for Regular) a bit, the usual 
American penchant for overconsumption kicks back in and they decide they 
want their guzzling SUVs and huge trucks again?


The Big 3 are like a lumbering beast, unable to turn on a dime and do 
the right thing for the environment and the economy, but it's the 
American buying public that are equally to blame.  I don't have an 
answer to their ills - it seems like a classic Catch-22.  I wish I did - 
for the sake of all my Detroit friends whose livelihoods are affected 
either directly or indirectly by the Auto Industry.  And so that people 
can go back to going to shows - and support Detroit's music scene.

And, as if on cue, I get an e-mail from Doc's mailing list stating

Due to Passport issues Andrew Weatherall could not get his Visa to come to
the United States.

Damn.  Don't jump in those cars, SF people!

Somebody posted that he was playing down there and a bunch of us from

for it? We all want presales.



Pre-sales aren't on sale yet.

When they are, they'll be on GrooveTickets and you'll be able to
get to the ticket site via the event Web page:

For reason that I won't start on here on the list, I didn't go and see
Mr Hawtin and friends in SF on Friday night... anyone from the Bay go?
Highlights?  Lowlights?


I wasn't in SF (I guess your not going is why Horsepower Lammers
didn't go, Patrick?  He didn't want to be lonely ;) ), but I went
to see Rich in LA last Saturday.

I liked Heartthrob's live set.  Felt like a bit of a Richie throwback.
Lots of energy, a lot more dynamics than the tracks that Magda had
played previous to him.

By the time Rich went on my night had turned into too much of a
backstage vodka-drenched bottle service social blab-a-thon and I
didn't really notice a whole lot of what he was playing after that  :-o

His hair's shorter and the beard is wy trimmed down from that
De:Bug mag shot, btw.

One of my biggest influences.  I first saw Bo Diddley on February 15, 1979,
at the Ontario Theater in Washington DC, after my friends the D.Ceats 
and then The Clash.


Wow.  I actually beat Fred to something - by 6 days :)

The Clash
Bo Diddley
The Dils
Santa Monica Civic
February 9th, 1979

Tickets were $7.50, btw.  Not $750 like it is now.

And I saw Elvis Costello's famous gig at the Palomino Club a week later.
Life was good.

R.I.P. Bo.

I saw a pretty sane looking guy in his forties standing in the lawn in
front of the Hawtin close out on Sunday, and was curious what the deal
was.  Kind of looked like Ned Flanders but not weird.


I've been known to see the dawn in after late night Richie sets,
and I'll be 50 in 5 months.  gulp

I don't look like Ned Flanders, but when I've buzzed my hair down
super-short I've been known to be called Uncle Fester  ;)

I had fun last weekend.  I only went one day Sunday to the festival.

My complaint is the price, yea it is $25 a day, but this is a 
historically free festival.  My biggest complaint is that stupid $3.25 
service charge on credit card ticket sale at the box office.


Seriously, you but this is a historically free festival people need to
get over it.

People come in from all over for Coachella.  They pay $290 to get
fry baked for 3 days.

Burning Man is up over $200.

Sonar and the other Euro festivals are up to $75 a day and higher.

Look, I love Detroit people and I know the economy's depressed.

But 3 days of great music for under $50 total is ridiculously cheap.

End of story.

It just happened to be a free festival at the start until someone
realized, Hey, we're losing our shirts here without people paying
something.  That's Reality, kids.  Whining about the price at this
point and how it was a free festival just makes you sound like a
g0ddmned Hippie.  :)

(313) Have fun everyone

As someone forced to stay home this year, sit at work and watch
as the Martian Air Force tries to shoot down our latest NASA/JPL
space probe this Sunday afternoon (7:26 PM EDT/4:26 PM PDT),
I just wanted to extend my hopes for safe travels to everyone
flying or driving in to tha D this weekend, and to all of you
festival-goers my best wishes for good weather and fun times.

Have a blast for me.
