Greetings, 

On July 26th we will be celebrating our one year anniversary. Current
has been quiet since February, but we will be coming back with a series
of larger individual events this winter. There will be dance events, as
well as a series of smaller listening oriented nights. The first in a
series of deep listening events will be 07.26.00 :

Carlos Souffront will present a flawless set of the tasteful minimalism
he is known for, Greg Campbell is opening with a set of deep ambiance,
Bill VanLoo and Mike Taylor will be playing individual live PA's. It is
going to be an evening of interesting electronic listening music in
downtown Detroit. 

7.26.00 @
Forans
612 Woodward
Detroit MI
313.617.3630
9pm-2am, this is a free event. 
For more information : [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks,
Mike Taylor

Hello, 

It is nice to see friends getting props. HP aka Steve Lammers has been
mixing for years, and used to host the Mechanical Pulse radio show back
in the mid 90's at MSU. These days he is resident at Forans pub on
Wednesday nights in Detroit. He played throughout Europe last year in
clubs in Amsterdam, Cologne, and most notably Tresor in Berlin. He will
be headlining on the next two Fridays at Science. Steve is a good guy
and he bangs, definitely check him out if you get a chance. 

For further booking information on his trip to Europe, contact me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] He will be in Finland for a week and is
interested in further bookings in northern Europe. 

Thanks, 
Mike Taylor

Sure, I am looking for stuff along the lines of In a Lonely Place by New
Order and Ghosts by Japan. I am looking for moody, slow records with
deep synth sounds, something that would have been an outgrowth of Here
Are The Young Men by Joy Division. 

On the flip side of that, I am looking for upbeat stuff along the lines
of Lexicon Of Love by ABC, but perhaps a little rawer and with more
emphasis on the groove. Something like a cat trying to sound like Bryan
Ferry with a swung-out funk rhythm section. Any hints would be greatly
welcomed, thanks in advance.

Re: [313] Classic Kraftwerk Find

2000-06-24 Thread Intermodal
Hello, 

Good job on the finds! I know that there have been recent repressings
from Capitol for Trans-Europe Express and Radioactivity on Vinyl. You
should be able to order from most of your better vinyl retailers, as it
is a major label release. buying doubles is an option if you do not to
touch the old pressing. The shame is that they recorded Computerworld
for Warners and that has not seen a recent repressing. I remember Tour
De France being recently repressed as well. 

Radioactivity is an interesting record, I do not like quite as much as
Autobahn. The songs were shorter and a little more evolved, and there
was definitely greater use of weird synth sounds in the compositions. I
though the moog bleeps in morse code on the titletrack was a nice touch.
It is good stuff, but not necessarily essential. IMO everything
Kraftwerk did between TEE and Tour De France needs to be in everybodys
collection, the stuff before TEE is good for historial perspective, and
everything after Tour De France should be heard just so you do not make
the same mistakes in your own music. ;)

While we are on the subject of classic finds, does anyone have any good
recommendations for obscure but good new wave records? 

take care, 
Mike

Re: [313] RE: Detroit Techno & Art

2000-06-24 Thread Intermodal
Hello, 

Mark Pauline from SRL used to do some pretty off the hook stuff. As time
has progressed he has gotten a little more business oriented and he
isn't quite as radical as he once was. He isn't attacking bill boards
anymore, he isn't stealing his supplies from factories anymore either.
;) These days the stuff that is probably getting him the most attention
is the Robot Wars events in SF that he organizes. If you watched
Discovery and TLC a couple years ago the events used to get coverage on
their tech shows. Remote control robots that smash each other up while
the onlooking crowd cheers, its like Rome with IC's.

I do not think SRL is very active anymore, in order for SRL to have a
performance they have to be commissioned by an individual. I looked into
it once out of curiosity, and I think the cost would have been around
$150,000, plus the time involved with permits and logistics. I would
have hella bragging rights if I could say that I had Mark Pauline build
some robots that blow each other up with home built rocket launchers,
lazers and flame throwers in Hart Plaza, but I think financing and
insuring the whole endeavor would have been difficult. ;) 

Definitely one of the old school industrial pioneers. I think his
billboard modifications are probably the most interesting thing he did,
at least in my mind. 
Fine art is interesting, but I wish there were more people doing art
terrorist actions in Detroit. Those "who yo baby daddy"  and casino
signs on I-96 are just begging for modification. That is the sad thing
about Punk and Industrial, as time passed they stopped being radical and
just became another set of poses. But that, my friends, is a completely
different thread.

Hello,

This idea goes back a lot further, you would have to look into academic
electronic circles for the beginning of concept. Off hand, Edgard Varese
and Stockhausen both employed this concept in their installation work in
the 1950's. I am sure there were other using this concept in their
installation work during the early days of tape music. I would imagine
poly-channel sound goes back even further than the 1950's. I have a
collection of academic electronic music history books from the late
60's/early 70's, I will have a look through them tomorrow afternoon for
more info. Anything people are doing now in digital media is simply a
technological refinement of concepts people were carrying at least half
a century ago. 

Take care,

Re: [313] Trying....bullshit

2000-06-18 Thread Intermodal
Hello, 

I am not trying to start a big argument, but I will put it to you like
this. 

get a random teenage techno DJ, and play them a marco corolla record,
and then play him the Kick the Pump Mix of Big Fun by Derrick May. I
guarantee you he will pick the Marco Corolla record. 

You know your stuff, and you have a perspective of a person who knows
their stuff. Most people do not have your perspective, and they do not
judge records the way you do. You can see the context, and because of
that you can enjoy most of the metroplex catalog. It is easy to point to
No UFO's, but how about Play it Cool, or Triangle of Love. Those records
are great, but you are nuts if you think that those records are great
productions. They were made in low budget studios, and they sound like
they were made in low budget studios. bad gated reverb kicks, poorly
recorded vocals, they sound old and primitive by modern standards. As
for composition, Juan was good, but his shit isn't that complex. He had
a great sense of groove, he could write in key, and he had a knack for
good sounds. When you get outside of the 313 dogma and learn a bit of
music theory you might judge those records a little differently. Juan
was good, but he wasn't Bach or Miles Davis. 

I like them because they sound old and primitive. They have soul, they
are interesting and distinctive. But what you and I see in those
records, the average punter does not. 
I do not think Marco Carolla is better, I just think he is a lot more
obvious, and that is the whole point of my posts. I still have my
Detroit records, I don't miss the hard techno records I sold. If not
being rigidly dogmatic about records is sacrilegious, I am ready for the
stones. Early Detroit is great music, but it is just a branch on the
tree of music. It is great music, but I have enough perspective to know
that it is not the center of the musical universe. 

take care,
Mike

Re: [313] Trying....

2000-06-18 Thread Intermodal
my only problem is finding records
> that are pre 1990.  

I think that is part of the reason why you may disagree with Cyclones
post about people not liking early techno. When I think of those early
records(play it cool by M500 comes to mind) I can understand exactly why
a 16 year old who just got into techno would not like it. 

If you were raised on post '91 techno, those early metroplex records
might be difficult to get your head around. Honestly, I love those
records, but I admit that many of them are poorly produced, the writing
isn't all that great, and they do not really work in a modern context. I
love them because they sound so old, so primitive, and because in many
ways they laid the groundwork for so much of what came after. I like
them because they are history pieces, and I judge them on that basis. 

When it comes to immediate gratification, I understand why people would
prefer filter house or Mills'y stuff to very early Detroit records. Most
people do not listen to records because of their historical
significance. I think those records are great, but I understand why
people might not like them. I will also admit that 3 years ago if I had
to choose between Ocean to Ocean, or a Regis record, I would have picked
Regis. 
Some people will be into it, and some will not, it isn't anything to
sweat over. 

Big Fun still sounds great to me, and I think Derrick May's music will
continue to date well. There are other records that are only going to
work as nostalgia pieces. Some people will dig that sound, and other
people will not grasp it. I do think that those early records might not
be the easiest thing for people to get into when it comes to Techno.
Mills seems alot more immediate to me than Bang The Party on Transmat.

mike

They were doing live shows before many of us were born, they were
messing around with tape loops and audio collages on stage as early as
1974. I believe the third original member was named Chris Watson, he
left the cabs in 1982. He eventually went on to become an audio engineer
for the BBC. Apparently he went to specialize is nature based field
recordings, and actually put out a few solo releases of field
recordings. If anyone has more info, I would be interested in knowing
more.

Re: [313] Previous v Present turnouts in Detroit

2000-06-03 Thread Intermodal
hey, 

Ive got to second this. I am glad that I was not the only one who found
it offensive that Derrick and Omar got a lukewarm reaction for DJ'ing,
and an utterly confused look for the poetry(which basically nailed
everything that is wrong with American society in 5 minutes) while Rich
shows up with a 909 and a compressor and the crowd goes apeshit. 

Not to hate on Rich, but Derrick May deserved alot more love from that
crowd than he got. He was playing those great afro-cuban jazz records by
the end, just so lush and deep. Hawtin was alright, it was cool to hear
Vaporspace and Lyot on a system, but he was not coming with soul like
Derrick May. 

I guess we are just getting old Phred. Still, the cool thing about being
old is we can talk about Genesis PO and reference him outside of being
"that guy for modulations who invented acidhouse" :) (inside DEMF joke)

Mike

Hello, 

While I am having this jones for pre-90's dance music, can anybody give
me a run down on the S'express records. They are one of those groups
that I have known about for years, and I have never heard their music or

house cross over group in the late 80's. I know that Carl Craig and
Derrick May contributed rhythm programming to their last full length.
Should I try hunting this stuff down, or is it not worth the effort?

> *** Ain't Psycick T.V. the act of Genesis P. Orridge, founder of Throbbing
> Gristle?

The thing people need to remember about Genesis P.O is that he is a
media personality, and not a musician. He is good for interviews about
concentration camp psychology, why fluxus sucks, Crowley related ritual
Magick, and William Seward Burroughs, just do not ask the guy to write a
tune. He was a performance artist, not a musician. TG was Genesis
applying the gallery performance art of Coum Transmissions into a rock
context. 

Most people do not realize that the brains behind Throbbing Gristle were
really Chris Carter, and to a lesser extent Sleazy P. That is why there
never has really been a true GPO solo record, he isn't a musician. When
you listen to newer Psychic TV you are really listening to younger Fred
Gianelli. From what Fred has posted to this list, he does not feel that
he was treated very well, and felt cheated by the whole process. He did
not get much fame or money, as Genesis took most of both... 

...I could go on longer, Craig Taborn goes on in 6 hours and 35 minutes,
I better hit the hay...

Re: [313] industrial

2000-05-24 Thread Intermodal
Hello, 

Industrial is the red headed step-child of Detroit Techno. The hard
minimal end of Detroit would not exist without it. A lot of people want
to say that Mills was a hip-hop DJ, but they neglect to mention that he
and UR got their Interfisch/Tresor connection through his Industrial
group Final Cut. UR and Plus8 both definitely owe a debt to industrial
music, albeit only in their very early recordings. I know there are
probably more than a couple people on this list who got their start in
electronic dance music from old Wax Trax records. 

In hindsight a great deal of that stuff did not date at all, but it
still captures the time for me. It is not cool in 2000 to admit to
liking that stuff(did I like Ministry? Heavens no, I was into Sun Ra and
Coltrane when I was 13 ;) You really have to give it credit, in its time
it definitely did have an influence. These days the only stuff I can
still listen to is old Mute and IR stuff from the 70's/early 80's, but
that is a different thread... 

AO, what have you got to say about old industrial stuff from way back
when?

Take care, 
Mike

Hello, 

Picked up this 12" this afternoon, and I have to say that I quite like
it. This is my favorite record of the THX series, and it is the best
music that Dale Lawrence has recorded. Deep and dubby and in line with
the Elements records and previous THX releases, but it is showing a
strong evolution. I give Dale credit, each record he puts out is better
than the last. Definitely a record to check out this week.

I will be honest, I thought this album was the bee knee's when it was
new. In hindsight, I cannot believe I ever liked the stuff(then again I
feel that way about just about everthing in the downwards catalogue
now.) Bangin' hard monotrack techno from the mid-90's, considered
brilliant in its day. 

If you like monotrack techno it is good stuff, if you like your records
to have musical developments and phrases that last longer than a bar or
two, you might not care for this record. In my eyes, it is pretty
souless and disposable, but that is _my_ opinion. 

If you did not live on the other side of the planet I would give my copy
to you(along with all the other regis, early surgeon, female, and
portion reform that is gathering dust in my collection)

Hi all

Today MNS can bring you news of a fantastic new Kraftwerk release.

KRAFTWERK - A SHORT INTRODUCTION TO KRAFTWERK CD / BOOK £15.99

Please note that this is an OFFICIAL release.

Produced by Sonic Books who are personal friends with Kraftwerk. Ralf &
Florian allowed this release to happen as all the tracks (original
recordings) on the CD are over 20 years old, hence the copyright is no
longer with EMI, but with the band members themselves.

For the first time in the 30 years of KRAFTWERK history, this CD offers pre-
viously unreleased NEW version of 7 Kraftwerk classics, never before heard
on any album or compilation! 45 minutes of EXCLUSIVE versions of timeless
classics. The CD opens with a 3.38-minutes harder and more rhythmic version
of 'It's More fun to compute', originally recorded for a planned 12" in
1981, but never released. It is followed by a 1990 re-recording of
'Kristallo', a track from legendary 3rd Kraftwerk-LP 'Ralf & Florian'.
Kraftwerk were working on this version for a possible release on the '91 cd
'The Mix', but the track remained unfinished and can be heard on this CD for
the first time. The following 6 mins. 31' version of 'Autobahn' was another
early study for a re-make, intended for 'The Mix' and is completely
different from both official versions, although the lead vocals are missing.
The very short version of 'Hall of Mirrors' (2.36) dates back to 1976 and is
a demo-version of the song, later released on 'Trans Europe Express'. It
follows an all new instrumental version of 'Radioactivity', that has not
much in common with the official version or Kevorkian's remix on the single
of 1991. Quite minimal, very rhythmic and atmo-spheric at the same time!
'Uranium' was a short track on 1975's 'Radioactivity' album here included in
a completely re-recorded, much longer (7.09) and different version,
originally planned for 'The Mix', but never released. 'Das Model' finally is
included in an early demo-version from late 1977. It was to become Kraftwerk
's biggest hit so far a few years later, when it was re-released as a single
in 1981. The 88 pages booklet in CD-size offers a short introduction to the
great maestros of the 'Electronic Order' who  founded in the early 70ies
became a school which was to produce noteworthy heirs all over the planet:
>From the Human League to Depeche Mode, from The Chemical Brothers to the
last techno heroes of our days. Unforgotten and adored by the public,
musicians and critics alike, they have just returned after years of silence
(their last official album dates back to 1986!) with the new single 'Expo
2000', showing that Ralf Hütter and Florian Schneider are here to stay for
the third millenium, too. The Booklet includes the band-history, excerpts
from Interviews and full discography including promo-only releases, bootlegs
etc.etc.

We shall have this item in stock and shipping at the start of next week, so
pre-order now!

More rare KW items coming soon.

All the best

I think you are both oversimplifying the issue. I think where she is
coming from is that she just read a book based on a watered down version
of what Situationalist International/Deleuze and Guattari/Hakim Bey/any
other author dealing with ontological anarchist theory...have been
kicking for a good chunk of the 20th century. 

I think the problem comes when you are dealing with companies that
profit from mediating reality. I believe people take issue with the fact
that Mattel is selling a watered down stereotype of dance culture, and
it does not reflect their cultural experiences. The problem with this is
that these people are in control of our representation in mass culture
for all of posterity. The issue is that movies like Go, mall store
raver-ware, parties as morally bankrupt no-holds barred drug orgies and
DJ Ken dolls are going to be the things that define our experience to
outsider for futurity. 

 I think even Adbusters would recommend saving that
> rhetoric for more important
> protests.

The thing that should really be bothering people is the conditions that
those Barbie Dolls are made in. Mattel has sweatshops in China where
they make these things in shops with horrible worker conditions. There
is a big problem with shops in which they insert the hair into the
dolls, there a dust like substance from the hair in those shops that
causes the workers to have a problem with lung infections. The human
rights situation over there for those workers is very bad. I think that
is a much bigger problem than the misrepresentation and mediation of
this music though corporate media. I will save the rest of this speech
for the 313/WTO rants list.

But mediation stole that cat's culture and helped rob it of its quality
of life. 

The thing your are missing is that commodification is what kills the
cat. When you give a genre a name, some stars, and some general rules,
you kill it through definition. It cannot grow because you have boxed it
in, you have given it a set of rules. That's what commodification does,
it boxes and defines things in order to make them easier to sell. 

It would be nice to have a culture outside of capitalism...

Re: (313) 808 usage in mainstream music

2000-04-07 Thread Intermodal
hello, 

The 808 was a mainstay back in the 80's, but that stuff is rarely used
anymore. Ever since the first sampling drum machines started coming out
in the late 80's and early 90's (EMU sp-1200, Roger Linn's Akai
MPC-60...) the 808 has been fading out. You can really start to hear the
shift around the time Bell Biv Devoe and that era of commercial R&B
started coming out. That whole era of stuttering, swung-out snare drum
roll's would not have been possible without the shuffle function Roger
Linn programmed into the MPC-60(and co-incidentally alot of that era of
R&B sounds so grungy because of of the fact that the MPC-60 was only a
12 bit sampler) The MPC series, and the rising cost of 808's really put
the 808 out of business in black music in the 1990's. 

You can still hear altered samples on the 808 on commercial black
radio(even though demographically it is actually white radio) Listen to
some of that shite coming out of Cash Money or no-limit, and you will
find 808 samples. Then again that stuff is all sampling drum machines
too. Bling Bling, The Block is Hot, any of that crap, it all comes out
of an MPC.

The MC5 record that kept popping up is another 313 reference. 

I also liked the fact that they had a Liquid Liquid record in the bin by
the register. Did anyone else notice that they showed Before and After
Science by Brian Eno in about 6 different places during the course of
the film? 

If you are the kind of guy who spent more on records last month than you
did on dates the year before, this is the movie for you.

Re: (313) basic channel on planet E

2000-03-31 Thread Intermodal
Hey,

I assume you are refering to the Quadrant record that came out in 94/95?

It is really good, but it is unlike the Quadrant material on BC. It is a
little more synthy sounding, and not quite as grey as the basic channel
material. It seems to me that it was a little more geared towards a
Detroit label, so it has a little more of a Detroit feel in the Synth
dept. Definitely a good record to have if you can find it. 

Take care,
Mike

I can understand how somebody could not like it. It is such a primitive
take on New Order, and if you cannot judge something outside of its
historical perspective I can understand how you would not like it. It
isnt modern or slick, it is the sound of some guy just getting his shit
together in a studio. Then again, that is exactly why I love that track,
because it is so raw and it reeks of that era. ;) That jam that has
soul!

It is probably my 3rd favorite KS track next to Goodlife and Feel The

Re: (313):SH-101

2000-02-22 Thread Intermodal
Greetings,

This is totally off topic, but I have to chime in here. The idea that
one color of Sh101 sounds better than another is a myth. If you look at
a schematic level, they are all the same outside of the plastic cases
they are housed in. They are all exactly the same on the inside on a
__schematic__ level. 

The thing that differentiates the individual sound of an SH101 is on the
__componet__ level. Some Sh101's definitely do sound "better" than
others, simply because of minor differences in the tolerances of the
discreet components on the motherboard. There is not a general sonic
difference between the different colors, but each individual 101 sounds
slightly different. 

These are the times where being subscribed to AH for 4 years pays off.
Anybody want to have a heated discussion about Curtis vs. SSM chips ;)

that this would be released through Planet E. This is supposed to be a
small part of a whirlwind PE release schedule for 2000. Perhaps Mr.
Theakston would like to shed some light on the subject.

Take care, 
Mike Taylor

Re: (313) mike grant

2000-01-14 Thread Intermodal
greetings, 

I am going to have to second what BVL has to say. I do not particlularly
care for the a-side, it is a bit housey, good, but nothing really
amazing. However, the B-side is off the hook. I am going to have to put
my foot down and say that that "Rest in Peace My Brother" is my favorite
cut off this record. It is a non-four on the floor track, that reminds
me in a way of a primitive Psyche/BFC era Carl Craig with rhymic
elements that remind me of the Mood EP by MonoJunk. This is very much a
"current" track. 

I remember Mike telling me about a friend of his being shot in the
studio during a robbery, perhaps this is some reference to that
incident. 

The A2, Sunlight, is an increbible track as well. It is not quite as
moody as "Rest" but it is a floor track. Its a smooth 808 kick, with a
simple bassline, with percussion elements that are very reminescent of
the Mood EP on Plug Research. The strings on this track make it, along
with these abstract lead lines that work very well. It is a deep soulful
techno track, this is what people _should_ think of when you say techno. 

Bill is right, this record is fantastic, I highly reccomend it. I just
wish that the Moods and Grooves records were more in this vein rather
than on the Detroit House tip. Either way, this is a label worth looking
into, and I reccomend their records highly.

Take care, 
Mike Taylor

Actually, Brett Dancer is from Kalamazoo originally. He is currently
located in New York, and he does run the Trackmode label. His records
are good, and so are his Dj skills, check him out if you have the
chance.

If your 213 trip falls through, I will bring an 808 and a 303 down to
Current and you can freestyle over some steve poindexter style grooves. 

If you do come down, can I bill you as Sleazy D Plaslaiko? :)

Actually their first live set was at 3 Floors of whor..er...Fun, back in
late 95. I have a very distinct memory of Paris carrying an R8mk2 up the
stairs and how impressive it looked to me at the time. John Williams
also played a set at Exat at Zoots I would like to say sometime in 1997.

John Williams also collaborated with Dale Lawrence on Graviti, on the
first Theorem LP on Plus8.
It was one of the strongest tracks on that album. I have also heard a
bit of gossip that he has a couple mixes floating around for a TH remix
project, but I think Dale might be the guy to ask about this.

 "The idea of making music that in some way related to a sense of
place-landscape or environment-had occurred to me many times over the
last 12 years. My conscious exploration of this way of thinking probably
began with Another Green World in 1975. Since then I have become
interested in exaggerating and inventing rather than replicating spaces,
and experimenting with various techniques of time distortion."

I might be wrong, but I was always under the impression that Dj Rush does
drummy, tracked out, over shuffeled ghetto house.

 "I think the common trait to most artists is an attraction towards the
thrill of uncertainty, and an impulse to again and again put themselves in a
precarious position, even if it is in a very insulated way.  Making records
doesn't threaten your life. If you fuck up you're not going to die, but
nonetheless, the thrill is to do something that takes you by surprise, that
makes you wonder, god, what in me does this concept connect with? What part of
me have I discovered now?"
