Re: (313) Christian Marclay (was Research question about vinyl manipulation)

I guess it all depends on who the viewer is, I could go the whole rest of my 
life without ever hearing of this guy again.  I dont get it either as music or 
art.  The only way to make it harder for me to understand would be to have a 
poetry reading happening at the same time.

 Really interesting topic!

 I don't mean to derail the conversation but this link got me thinking...

 I'd never heard of Christian Marclay before so I checked out the links. I
 don’t find myself saying this too often but I REALLY don't get his music. I
 thought this wass odd because I've come to really like ambient and
 soundscapes. I can tell that there is a definite purpose behind what he is
 doing. Wikipedia pegs him as the unwitting inventor of turntablism and I
 agree with that statement. You can certainly learn a few turntablism
 techniques by watching what he does. It's just that the overall performance
 is totally lost on me.

 I don't know if anyone in the dance scene has done anything like this. This
 kind of stuff falls more into the noise scene. I can remember the Time
 Stereo guys drilling holes in records so that they would play off center and
 sound wobbly, but that is the only thing that comes to mind.

 This guy has made a career of that gimmick:

 Subject: Research question about vinyl manipulation
 Hi all,

 Has anyone ever done or heard of anyone doing the following IN
 DETROIT:

 Physically manipulating a piece of vinyl by cutting it down the middle
 exactly and then gluing it to another half of vinyl so that the
 grooves match up and it can actually play? Or any other kind of
 dramatic vinyl manipulation? I'm thinking of things beyond concentric
 grooves, groove reversal (starting a record from the inside to play
 outward), and looped grooves.

 Feel free to message me directly if you'd rather. Thanks!

Is it Acid Techno?

2000-05-10 Thread Jeff Richards
ok, i was just wondering what everbody thinks.  I have
been listening to some of the brittish acid techno
like dave the drummer, chris liberator, roland the
bastard (what a name, gotta love that guy), julian
liberator, etc, etc.  i have noticed some similarities
between it and trance.  a bouncy baseline, snare drum
rolls.  but it is still way too agressive to be
trance.  whats the deal?  am i the only one who
noticed it?  it don't matter though, i still like it.

petition and todays TRANCE scene

2000-05-09 Thread Jeff Richards
i have been to parties out on the east coast, mid-west
and the west coast.  the only place that had any kind
of age restriction was the East Coast, especially DC
and Baltimore.  it made for a  more fun and mature
enviroment.  i am sick of going to parties and seeing
all these 14-18 year old kids laying around on the
floor rolling thier ass off.  that is not my cup of
tea.  and besides, most of these kids don't know where
it all comes from.  they think that trance is the way,
and really it is just ruining it all.  ok...that is
enough venting for today.

 I could not agree with you more, but in my opinion,
 news reports like these,
 even though it was very sensational, can help to
 clean up this scene. This
 scene has been going down the shitter the past few
 years. Parents need to
 know where their 13-17 yr. olds are at night because
 they have no business
 being at raves and getting fucked up. That is what
 is making the scene look
 bad. I saw the news report last night and the main
 focus was on underage
 kids and their secret life. They did not mention
 anything about what
 happened to the people over 18.
 
 So, what I want to know is why promoters do not set
 age limits on their
 parties. Will it affect the bottom-line that much? 
 
 I am down with the cause and will sign the petition
 because there are two
 sides to every story and raves are extremely
 stereotyped by the media. I
 also believe, however, that there is some truth to
 every stereotype and that
 the rave scene needs to except some responsibility
 and change. At this
 moment in time, I cannot think of one positive thing
 that the media could
 report on about raves. 
 
 PS - I also want to know why more people do not
 support the Detroit's club
 scene more. While everyone was getting busted on
 Saturday, they missed an
 excellent bust-free night at Science.

 Hi all,
 
 
   This last weekend in Detroit it was like 1515
 Broadway all over again. 
 Mid-week there had been another one of those look
 where your children are 
 at on saturday night! reports on the news. Of
 course, it was just like 
 years ago - a promoter had called the news
 complaining of how they wanted to
 
 clean up the scene. Then they rented a space that
 they thought was 
 bust-proof, and proceeded to throw a party with
 tight security and 500 free 
 tickets. It backfired in their face and of course
 the cops arrived with the 
 news in tow. Multiple kids were beaten on site by
 the Highland Park Police, 
 and the newspeople witnessed this but did not report
 it.
 
 *sigh*
 
 Either way, we want to at least have a chance to
 speak about the things that
 
 make rave culture special to us. The news reports
 are always 
 sensationalistic and driven by ratings - this we
 grudgingly accept as the 
 way it is - but it would be nice to be heard at all,
 even within that 
 context. Please help us find a voice amongst all the
 yelling.
 
 Thanks,

  Here's the situation: I'm a bit confused.  It
 seems that there are two

  The songs are untitled and the record itself
 doesn't even identify
  itself except for the etching on the label.  This
 seems really illogical

  Is there some story behind this record, or is it
 just one of those

I also forgot to mention that movie about hustling

that was shot mostly in detroit (as far as i know)
just the part with Steven Stills (or was it crosby?)
was filmed else where.  i think that one was called
The Ambassador.  i could be wrong though.  I saw it on

What might make it even better would be a three hour battle between the

Too bad i am in DC for that show.
