But it doesn't work at all for me as a standalone thing, as far as I'm concerned. It definitely sounds like the work of someone who works better as a collaborator than as an artist in his own right. i just think youve missed the entire point of its existance. none of it is backdrop, as you put it, he structures all the individual beats to have movement within them. they arent basic beats for someone to rhyme over, they have narrative more like a dj shadow production, even if its over a very short period of time. I think you both make good points. The short-attention-span factor throws speed bumps into the listening experience, but I hear this as a statement made by a master producer, for producers. It's a teaching tool, and a pallette that I imagine J Dilla knew would be picked up and re-contextualized. I expect many of these tracks will be torn apart, re-created, and cast again as full length material. If not, they will at least serve to inspire a whole new batch of creators with access to tons of obscure 70s vinyl. -- Ian

I'm not defending the term emotional when used to describe techno, but I think it's often used defensively. So many times the genre is described as soulless machine music. In an effort to counter that, or distinguish certain tracks, people use the term emotional. Kinda reminds me of the first time I heard of atmospheric Drum Bass to distinguish it from a music that some considered too cold. As far as Rock and Folk go, they're both rooted in protest, so emotion is a given (or should be). -- Ian

But I have arguments with young Detroit fans - friends of mine - who are so purist that I wonder how they really love music at all. Their blanket disavowal of all contemporary urban music is strange. I think I am much more on the pulse than them, arrogant or not as that sounds. I refuse to get to a point where we purely romanticise the music of the past as they - some - do. How is it that an old funk record can be privileged over something new and edgy? I think it's a matter of perspective. Once you've educated yourself on Detroit Techno (or any other genre for that matter), you can apply that learning to new musics and compare/contrast the two. And we learn from that. Newbies usually have not yet mastered any given genre, and may be overly enthusiastic about the one sound they have discovered. At my age, I've developed appreciation for swing, bop, dub, soul, funk, disco, hard trance, concertos, electro (1st and 2nd Gen), ska (1.0 - 3.0) blah blah blah. I filter everything though my experience and a few new things always sneak through. I was met with raised eyebrows from peers when i said that Christina Aguilera's Genie in a Bottle had a compelling Aphex Twin production sound. My fondness for Bowie/Bolan glam helped me latch on to Louis XIV for a hell of a lot of fun, without me expecting them to be anything but a passing fancy.

(313) Classical/Techno and the power of a spirit
http://www.detnews.com/2005/events/0502/17/D01-91035.htm Just got back from this show. Holland's 8 minute Motor City Dance Mix has all the makings of a 1989-era 313 anthem, if it had been written for a few pieces of Japanese electronics instead of a full symphony orchestra. The composer's intentions were effective and clear, regardless of how stiff the musicians were. I have yet to hear an orchestral percussion section that can swing nearly as hard as most of the Detroit city high school drum corps can. Still, I was smiling the entire time, feeling a certain legitimacy descend on the sounds we know and love. And the performers get an A for effort. I wonder if any of them were persuaded to research the context and inspiration during rehearsal. Hannibal Lokumbe's Dear Mrs. Parks was a complete revelation. Stunning. Powerful. It's a love song for the power of a single human spirit, a prayer for justice and peace, and a celebration of liberty, turned up to 11. The composer was in attendance during this world premiere weekend, and he was even spotted dancing in his box seat throughout much of the performance. I can't wait to hear this again, and hope it's recorded soon. -- Ian

My thanks again to Robin for the space to share. Happy 10 years, 313 and Deep Space! Back in the day, Linda and I would hit the parties Saturday night, and Deep Space was sometimes the soundtrack while driving around Detroit. I got tired of missing parts of the show, so i rigged the VCR to start at midnight and grab 4 hours. These are the only two shows I managed to retain (8 hours total), but they are corkers. Juan's influence in particular is evident in the July show (Minx hosting). I hope you all enjoy them as much as I have. Good luck with the tracklisting, too. This should be fun. -- Ian

Re: (313) A complete Detroit Techno collection
Actually, The B-52s are from Athens, Georgia. The track Mesopotamia happened to get a lot of play on air and at Detroit parties in the 1980s. Great pulsating bassline and killer backing vocals. -- Ian On Jan 13, 2004, at 4:52 AM, Robert Taylor wrote: They're from Detroit apparently and this track in particular was allegedly heavily played by Electrifying Mojo, The Wizard etc and was an acknowledged inpsiration on many Detroit artists - it is on Carl Craig's Abstract Funk Theory comp. -Original Message- From: Cobert, Gwendal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 13, 2004 9:42 AM To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: RE: (313) A complete Detroit Techno collection Mesopotamia - The B-52s I think I need some explanations on this one... ???
