While your doing all this wagering, I thought you wanted
to learn about Detroit Techno?  The above statement looks
to me like you already know, or have formed some opinion.
Take my hand chum, and I'd show you were it all began, in  
a wonderful club called the Outcast which not too many people
on this list have been.

   you made an assumption about me that i was
smiley's cousin or something.  well to answer your
jab... i am not, nor do i know who smiley is.  it is
correct that i kept my mouth shut when members were
posting links to stupid flash animation.  but at least
it was only a link instead of the insidious drool of
non-stop political posturing.
   all that i ask is that people stop with the crap
which is overtly and unabashedly political or
religious.  it is offensive to say the least to any
catholics or mormons who have somehow been linked to
the evil plot of corporations to take over our very
existence.  i am offended as a catholic to be linked
in this way.  my dad said a long time ago to me that
if i ever wanted to cause a bar fight all i had to do
was mention religion or politics.  that is what has
occurred here.
   rather keep the list to what it was intended
for...a forum for music discussion, it has turned into
a mailing list for the left-wing activists.  this i
don't appreciate.  furthermore, i thought this was a
moderated list.

Re: [313] about moby and his corporate money he receives...

2001-05-03 Thread Omar Hackett
Peace Be unto U

Funny, Kent

I have been on the list long enough to know when you didnt even use
the word hater, but now your own the bandwagon using it as though
your all in..come on Chap give it a rest, pretty please with  
sugar and cherry on top!

I do agree with one thing you said, how the heck could a Moby even be  
discussed.  Thus I wont!  I will however deal with one issue.

Who the hell said that money helps, hunh, who said it?  Unbelievable!
Dont any of you know that we been doing this sh*t for years without
money!  If we compiled all the brothas together that are engineers, general
technicians, lighting technicians, a builder to build the stages(who takes 
scraps
from the lumber yard), rented some microphones and other digital  
equipment, planners and organizers, cats in production, promotions etc..., 
coupled with all the other trimmings I'd imagine that it could be pulled off.  
But who has the courage to try it?

Point:

U dont need, necessarily, corporate sponsors for this type of thing.  These 
brothas
and others around the country and globe have been doing this stuff for 
years...with just
what they have, and no one is mad on this side about it.  Basically, we'd hope
U'd get the message to keep churging ahead with what you got, forging networks
of people with LIKEMIND, and thats how it could be even bigger and better 
without
the corporations cash and still retain its integrity.   

QUESTION:

Do any of you believe in coming together, and that something positive, 
organized,  
and constructive can result from such a unity?
DONT ANSWER, its rhetorical.  I would guess that if you did believe it, then 
your
post, as well as your treatment of people outside the world of 313 would  
reflect such a belief.

Nick W, keep up the good work!

I find all this talk pro and con moby talk absurd. I've been around
long enough to remember when he was a guy with a few records out
who worked @ instinct, and used to exchange e-mail with him.  He
always seemed like a nice, sincere guy, and I have reason to think
he's change that much.

Everything he's doing now is more a function of being caught up in a
massive updraft of cash, and none of y'all can claim you'd be doing it
any differently, or any better.

Artistically I'm not a fan, though the track with gwen stefani doesn't
suck as bad as the other shit on the radio that my kid make me listen to.
Anyone who makes it on pop radio without making me cringe can't be all
bad.

The thing I wonder is why on 313 people feel like it's worth their time
and energy to be hating on Moby?  He's mostly harmless.  Get over it.
Basically I don't like people hating on anyone -- the thing about haters
is the more they hate, the less they actually know.

And lest this be misinterpreted -- I'm not talking about Diane or any
of the other heads who got sucked into the convo -- haters, you know who
I'm talking about.

Re: [313] faceless techno b******s

2001-05-02 Thread Omar Hackett
I'll open the can of worms!  Perhaps, and just perhaps, some  
people realize that there is/has been a graphic revolution especially in 
America.
Many people now desire a picture, photograph, music video
etcto associate with an artist.  Perhaps, and I make direct reference
to Mr. Banks, he saying---who gives a flyin fluck what the h*ll I look like,
if the music is tight then ___(fill in the blank).

Ultimately, it all points, and YES this is just my .005 cents worth of
an opinion, back to the fact that many of us are just about the image.

 And does anyone have any
points to make on the effect of such a policy?

It causes a subtle change in the way people are acustomed to things,
it goes against the grains of this graphic revolution, it serves as a basis
for change.

The mask issue deserves no comment.

So recently I was mulling over the way UR and Maurizio/Basic Channel refuse
to be photographed and rarely ever give interviews, and how this
facelessness projects to music consumers and how it adds to the general air
of mystique surrounding the artist. Can anyone point to other bands or
musicians who have employed this tactic, whether they be from the realms of
techno and/or dance music or any other genres? And does anyone have any
points to make on the effect of such a policy?

As a starter for ten, did you know that David Soul (in his pre-Starsky 
Hutch days) used to eke out a living as a singer songwriter called The
Masked Man? He would take to the stage in a mask and cloak because he said
he wanted people to concentrate on the music, although he admits he soon
became better-known for the gimmick rather than his songs.

 And there you might hit upon more than you would think. I
 believe that the
 idea of a photo stealing a soul lived among tribes of native
 Americans as
 Gwendal pointed out. If you know Mike Banks' background there
 may very well
 be a connection there to the refusal of being photographed.
Actually I had Africans in mind - and I did not know Mike Banks had Indian

CiM--Warm Data The Emoticon Sampler 01-02

2001-05-01 Thread Omar Hackett
I am a little late on this stuff I know, I know.
But I just got these two gems the other day.

CiM continues to bust me up with those melodic vibrations
he's combining!  Of course relaxing at home is the phatest track
to my ears---and I would boldly say that its about one of his  
best tracks that I have heard.  Incredible!   

The Emoticon Sampler features CiM, Future Beat Alliance, some chap
named Mark Mclaren who's made this explosive dance track called twang, not  
to mention(but I gotta) this tune entitled outnumbered. Metamatics has a nice
tune on it called Hymn bream(thats what my playlist says).  Conemelt with
a nice off basis but soothing tuneSome artist named X-asp--but I didnt
care for any of those tunes so far

How many people, in anyones estimation, spin for a club, or

 Well, I'm not a DJ and have no aspirations of becoming one but I have a
 turntable and only buy vinyl. I used to get by just buying CDs but as my
 tastes developed and my appetite for new, deep music increased I knew it
 couldn't be satisfied without a turntable. Buying vinyl does open up a
whole
 new world, it just depends on whether you want/need to go there or not. I
 wouldn't get too worried about it, if you can't see the need to get a
 turntable then you probably don't have to, as long as you're enjoying your
 music. Maybe these people who are baffled and bewildered by you need to
get
 a life of their own.

Jayson is 100% right on. I started out DJing with CDs b/c I started DJing on
the radio and I couldn't find the music I liked on vinyl in Iowa. About 2
years after I started my radio show (with assorted vinyl purchases along the
way) I opted to buy my first 1200 to compliment my Denon 2x CD players. I
think I lasted about three months before I bought the 2nd 1200, and this was
in '94 when CD compilations were at their most revelatory for new initiates.
Suffice it to say, I am now a vinyl devotee, and have been for many years. i
would never have delved as deep into house or techno w/o vinyl purchses. It
is simply impossible to have your finger on the pulse without a turntable
right now, although the internet may change this in the next few years.
Besides all of that, vinyl sounds 1000x better than CD once you acquire the
taste for it. For instance, I bought Pole 1 + 2 on vinyl despite extra cost
even though I rarely spin it, simply because I wanted to listen to it on
vinyl when I'm in the mood.

Vinyl is the template of the Gods.

the pt 1 remixes (by, amongst others, octave one) are now available from the
same label.

otherwise check out label pure plastic for mark broom's and rue east's (mark

baby ford's output mostly on his own label ifach. also look out for minimal

brilliant mark broom and dave hill 12 on warp under name sympletic (i
