(313) Bloc weekender lineup
Booked. For those who don't remember, reports of last year's first Bloc were fairly immense. http://www.blocweekend.com Tristan === [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phonopsia.co.uk
(313) A couple of new toons
A bit of activity round here all of a sudden! Here's some copy-and-pasted new stuff which I've only ordered based on clips, but I reckon deserves a mention: SUBSTANCE/VAINQUEUR: Libration (Scion Versions Germany) -Sounds absolutely immense based on the clips, but I need to add the caveat that I'm listening through laptop speakers REINBOTH, Michael/JOASH/NO THEORY/NEIL LANDSTRUMM: Future Sound Of Jazz Vol 11 (Compost Germany) -The Michael Reinboth thing sounds wicked. Good enough that I didn't even properly check the other two tracks, even though it was the new No Theory (1/2 of which is Pascal Schaefer) which brought me to the clips. FREER, Hauke: My Beat (Real Soon) -New one-sided limited thing. The A-side sounds like it's got a big build-up in store. Don't sleep! Keep up the good work Paul - you're setting the pace for a few of us around here. Tristan === [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phonopsia.co.uk

OB313: Los Hermanos Live @ Panorama Bar last weekend were excellent for the two tracks I caught of them (unfortunately we got there too late to see the whole thing). Gerald Mitchell was baaad on the live keys. From what I saw, I'd say it blew the Timeline show out of the water. Much more live at any rate. But I'm not exactly Mr. UR so take that with a grain of salt. Also on my Popkomm expedition I caught Fat Freddys Drop for the third time, who were utterly fantastic. Possibly the best I've seen them. We almost caused a riot calling for a second encore. That was bloody intense. Saw A Guy Called Gerald and Sleep Archive at WMF, both of whom were not quite as good as when I've seen them previously. Zip and Soulphiction (I'm pretty sure that's who they were) were OK at Watergate. They played some really nice tracks but some the set didn't have much flow. Also caught Lindstromm (I think) at Panorama Bar (amazing venue BTW) and he was purty damn good. Berlin was great in general, although as you can tell I didn't really go all-out on the clubbing. I just really enjoyed the city though. Almost as much as London. ;) Thanks everyone who helped me find the good stuff! Tristan === [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phonopsia.co.uk
(313) Popkomm
I'm off to Popkomm from the 12-18. Anyone have good info on parties? I'd particularly like to catch Fat Freddy's Drop (who are the only people I know are playing), Henrik Schwarz - basically anything Sonar Kollektiv, Shed, maybe a Playhouse party, dunno... Basically looking for recommendations b/c I hear the parties are dope, and I've not got the first clue where to look other than the official programme at http://www1.messe-berlin.de/vip8_1/website/MesseBerlin/htdocs/www.popkomm/en/Festival/Programme/index.jsp which I'm assuming is only a partial list.

My friend Steve just called me out on this last week as well. He said the Piccadilly clip sounded way slower.

(313) Re: stacey pullen in SF
FWIW, I saw Stacey Pullen play in Seattle '97, which was at that point the best set I'd ever seen, then saw him in San Francisco at the MOMA in '99 for the second time and he was already beginning to get dissapointing then. Basically I think I've seen two sets from him that I've liked since then, but most have been far too progressive for my liking. Just when I'd nearly given up on him, he did play quite well when I last heard him @ Fabric, throwing in Pepe Bradock, etc. Tristan === [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phonopsia.co.uk
(313) Birthday mix for Hannah
Hey all. I did a mix for my girlfriend's birthday which she's opted to share with the world. It's my stab at putting down a bunch of tracks that I figured she liked, that she didn't already have, and some of it's a bit unusual for my mixes (i.e. more disco than you'd usually get). It's got Rob's tune of the Summer in it to boot. http://www.phonopsia.co.uk/mixes/BirthdayMixForHannah_06-08-05.mp3 Track list --- Fat Freddys Drop - Flashback [The Drop] Dirk Leyers - New Serious One [Kompakt] Exuma - Exuma, The Obeah Man [Soul Jazz] James Mason - Sweet Power Your Embrace [Soul Jazz] Earth, Wind & Fire - Brazillian Rhyme (Danny Krivit Re-edit) [Sony Japan] Skyy - First Time Around (Larry Levan Canadian 12" Remix) [Salsoul] Osunlade presents Nadirah Shakoor - Touched My Soul [Set] Amp Fiddler - Love and War [Genuine] The Detroit Experiment - Think Twice [Planet E] Carl Craig - Sandstorms [Planet E] Omar-S - Detroit #1 [FXHE] Theo Parrish - Music [Sound Signature] Norma Jean Bell - Dreams [Peacefrog] Stateless - Leave Me Now (Brooks' Fair & Light Mix) Henrik Schwarz - Marvin [Moodmusic] DJ Gregory - Elle [Faya Combo] Rima - This World (12" Version) [JCR] RSL - Wesley Music [Players] Kerri Chandler - Bar a Thym [Nite Grooves] Claro Intellecto - Peace of Mind (Electrosoul) [AI Records] Paul St. Hilaire & Rene Lowe - Faith (Vox) [False Tuned] Quadrant - Infinition [Basic Channel] Depeche Mode - Behind the Wheel [Mute] Juan Atkins - I Love You [New Religion] Brooks - Tell Somebody About Us (Akufen raconte sa Version des Faits) [Soundslike] Enjoy!

Well, I had a good listen to a good chunk of them last night (and many of them as they came out). Basic Bastard Volume 6, and maybe 3 sounded like something I would like, but some of the other stuff was not so much my thing. I very well may pick up 6 or 3 or whatever the one that sounded kinda housey was - just ran out of money last night. Can anyone remind me if these are all new, or are some of them reissues of older stuff. I coulda sworn one of the Outland Basci Bastards I have was volume 4, and that's gotta be nearly 10 years old now. Tristan
(313) New Records
32 PROJECT: Rule Of Humanity (Ibadan US) [Hiroshi Watanbe in fairly-technoish mode. Not sure if I'll like it quite as much as the last 32 Project, but sounds nice] DUBIOUS: Heavy Hands (Prize) [Couldn't conclude on this one at first, but finally decided I needed it for the 2nd track] DUNCAN, James: Peoples Are Peoples (Real Soon US) [second recent thing from him - both great] FERRER/SYDENHAM INC/ZERO DUMA: DJ Tools Volume 5 - Alternative Conclusions (Ibadan US) [finally answered my Wayne Gardiner question! He is Zero Duma on this, and the track sounds sick. Imagine him doing proper techno! Not sure how I missed this on release. Also found some other pseudonyms for him that aren't listed as him on discogs, like Sinister Concepts, which sounded OK from the clips, but nothing I'd rush to buy] GARDINER, Wayne & EDDIE MADURO: The Warning (Bolshevik US) [OK, not a new release, but I'm sure other people will want to know this Logic track has been remixed by the man himself. Think these mixes are new, but not 100% sure. Don't sound terribly different than the original] VOORN, Orlando: Underwater (Ignitor US) [first ignitor thing I've picked up. Sounds dope] Also got the Sam Prekop album, and passed on the Dimlite 12" - waiting on the album.

Hmm. The newest Mathew Jonson is him with The Mole (duking it out for Mr.-prolific-of-the-moment award with Jamal Moss), and it sounds like each of them takes turns on the beats, with a bit of each -of them on top. It's on Spriecher (or whatever that Kompakt offshoot is called). The 2nd half of it when (what sounds to me like) The Mole's bassline/beat comes in, it gets well dirty. When I mixed it on Saturday I let it go to almost the middle before bringing it in, and mostly just played the second half. It's pretty cool, but doesn't 'do' a ton, especially in the first half. A really slow builder in typical Mathew Jonson style. This is the first of his releases I've bought post-deluge. I think it sounds different enough to the rest of them to warant the purchse, but I'm sure some won't agree. I assume by Mathew Jonson's label you mean Wagon Repair? I came up with the theory it means fixing the damage those bandwagon f*ckos like me created. I hear the b-side on that first 12" is the tune, but haven't heard it myself yet. Tristan

Robin, Couldn't convince myself I needed that A Greenman. Sounded good though. Clips just weren't convincing. I assume it's quite expansive? Anything I could fit in a set or is it a bit mellow for that? Trying to reduce expediture a bit (and failing badly as evidenced below). Last week from Piccadilly: Georg Levin : Heaven EP - 12" (with RIMA remix. Really growing on me) MF DOOM : Operation: DOOMsday - 2xLP (according to Piccadilly this is the final batch of these ever per licensing issues, so run don't walk) Omar S : 001 - 12" (i.e. not AOS #1. Loving it BTW) Patchworks Pres. Mister Day : Deep Ocean EP - 12" (sounds a bit St. Germaine-ish, in a very good way.

Nice vocals) These from Juno: Crusho: Traffic Jam EP (Q Tape France) - 12" (trying to order this for the third time, and I think this remix is better than the new three with Osunlade, etc BTW) James Duncan : Night Tracks (Le Systeme US) - 12" (Phwoar.

Ron Trent is easilly one of my top 5 favourite DJs. I know what you mean about his style, but he always seems to pick out the smooth kinda broken sophisto-house gems, in my mind anyway. His 4-hour set to close the KMS party @ DEMF 2002 is totally legendary. He played Blaze's 'Glora Muse' twice from CD-R. Otto and I were pretty much beside ourselves with curiosity and hypnotism. He seems to have gotten over his aviaphobia (new word! - had to one-up Robin) though, as he played NYE @ Cargo in London. Tristan
Re: (313) Stick Men
This would appear to resolve *my* confusion on the matter: http://www.discogs.com/label/Aquarius+Recordings+(Ontario) Aquarius was a sub-label of Stickman (run by The Stickmen), and Paul Jacobs would appear to be the main dude on that label. No clue if Paul Jacobs might be a psuedonym for the Paul in the Stickmen or not though (purley unfounded speculation). Discogs also lists both Stickmen groups.

Seconded. It was top of Tom Churchill's chart last month too (so make that thirded). All the tracks are excellent, although the Dixon remix of that album track doesn't do much different than the original. The Fulton remix of Vaccuum Jackers is really compelling too.

(313) Apparently, drums don't suck anymore
Carl Craig's Tres Demented played London Express's room at the Cross Festival last night. The lineup = 2 drummers with full trap kits 1 pianist on two Korg keyboards 1 trumpet blown by Marcus Belgrave 1 conductor who sometimes played keys, triggered a few sequences, screamed in a microphone, looked moody for a while then started smiling a lot The three songs that lasted about an hour were Tres Demented, the Climax and Throw, loosely. The intro had bits that vaguely sounded like Chaz Vincent's 'Dream Zenith' synths and there was one part in the middle that sounded kinda like Landcruising. The drummers pounded the whole time w/o a break - both extremely competent and complimentary. The keyboardist was really good - he knew when to take the fore and when to accompany. Marcus Belgrave was clearly the star though, and everyone on stage seemed thrilled to be playing with him. He seemed to be having a blast too. There was relatively little electronics involved, except a looping synth and bassline, and some beats that Carl Craig tweaked a little. It still felt really thechno though! Some people asked if he did anything at all up there, but he did conduct some (as much as you can given the improvisational nature of the show), and he bitched a lot about some early sound/organisational problems. ;) They all seemed to be loving it about 1/2-way though though. Not sure where the next stop is, but I would say it's worth a hefty cover + substantial travel if it's not coming near you. Probably not everyone's cup of tea, but that room was about twice as full (and happy) as 1/2-hour later for Derrick May (mostly in loop-mode). Didn't catch a lot of other stuff. Gilles Peterson was good, not great. Idjut Boys were pretty tight. Unabombers were dope until about the last twenty minutes when I just really wanted to see Carl Craig. Brooks Live was a bit too slow to develop for the first half, but was excellent for the second. Luke Vibert did a great HDJ set as well, of which I only caught maybe 40 minutes before severe fatigue took over. In that time he pulled out YMO, LFO, Meat Beat Manifesto, the Knight Rider theme song, some acid I couldn't spot, and a bunch of other really good stuff. Boundaryless. The overall vibe was pretty good given I'd seen adverts for the festival on TV. There were definitely some sketchy people around, but on the whole it was a surprisingly good vibe. If there's a next year I will not be playing football the day before... This was probably the best weekend for music in London so far this year. Would love to hear how the 14-hour Co-op session was yesterday if anyone made it! Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The DJ Rels kinda reminds me of Nu Era's 'Broken Soul' for some reason, although I can't pinpoint it and it isn't an obvious comparison. I'm probably just wrong about that... The Madlib Remixes Vol. 2 2x 12" is particularly interesting because it's all hip hop acapellas over samples from 1977-1982. There's some nice disco and even vaguely techno bits in there, as well as some properly 80s sounding stuff. I was [this] close to buying the Monk Hughes but ran out of funds. Sounded great from the clips. Did anyone else pick up the Okayplayer 'True Notes Vol. 1' compilation? I've not properly had a chance to ingest it all yet, but the Madlib with Aceyalone track on there is the business, and I believe it's exclusive to that comp. The Madvillain album is probably the best full length so far this year (to continue my trend of lofty, untimely proclomations). ;) MF Doom is a bad-ass MC.

(313) Moving
It's a matter of degrees, ain't it? If you were born in Vernon, FL and happened to cultivate an interest in Detroit techno, do you think there'd be a chance in hell you could evangelize about it there? We had some success doing it in Iowa City (a city of less than 100,000), and thankfully some people like Kent keep making it happen for those who can't get out. But I don't see how anyone who wants to leave an insular place for a cosmopolitan one can be seen as a scene-deserter. Sometimes it's more important to enjoy life on your own terms (musical and otherwise), than it is to stay put somewhere, fighting for the good of a scene that shows little promise. Not everywhere can satisfy everyone and no one moves purely for the musical benefits, even if they may be a primary motivator. Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: (313) 313 Tenth Anniversary Party
I can understand the sentiment, but Brendan had this on his mind for a while and tried (is trying???) a number of ways to make this inclusive. It was *never* meant to be an exclusive London party, just a party in London for those on [313] who *can* make it to this one, in honour of the tenth anniversary. Similarly, people in Scotland could make an argument that the party should be up there. Let's face it, there's been a hell of a lot of British participation in this list for a long time, so it follows that those of us who live an ocean away would want to celebrate the list that helps us participate in Detroit's music when so many of us can't make the trip.

I totally love some of the newer stuff with live instrumentation, like "I'm Doing Fine" and "Runaway" to name two, and haven't lost any faith in the trackier end via M-7 (I know it's not KDJ himself) and KDJ 30. I know what you mean about some of it being a bit self-indulgent, and totally see Matt's point about Theo Parrish going that way, but can't see a trend towards this for either of them on the whole. Look at Theo's output in the last year and it's more than half dance floor stuff (as I see it anyway). Same with Moodymann really. Granted, I still haven't heard the 2nd Rotating Assembly or the Three Chairs album but I don't see that they've turned their backs on any styles, just that they've started stretching their wings more consistently, especially in album efforts (which would be expected). I think 2003 was one of their best years (both of them). If they've slowed down on dance floor output because of the 6x and 3x packs, then I don't think that indicates a trend towards the noodle.

Tieing together two of today's threads, I'll be dropping this as my second song (following some serious pirate themage) tomorrow night on the boat. I first heard it in a Ron Hardy DHP mix and frantically requested a track ID. Makes me think of slightly punkier Love and Rockets meets mid-80s dance music. Wicked. On this note, I've been really in to the '80s dance music I grew up with lately, a la New Order (well, they've been my favorite band for an eternity, but I've had a resurgent interest). Stuff with live instruments, especially New Order's early stuff. I wanted to play a lot of it at this boat party but had to kill some of my children for the greater good of the set. On that note, I recently recovered my copy of Music for the Masses, but wasn't compelled to play any of it, although I'm an enormous Depeche Mode fan. Maybe I'm just really into New Order right now and thinking of it in broader terms. I've also been well into my industrial stuff but haven't revisited Pet Shop Boys, so maybe I'm just looking for something edgy. Given that I'm in a techno mood this Summer, that would confirm, and is totally contrary to most of my Summer (Chicago housey) moods. Weird Summer (weather and music)...

Re: (313) Matthew Johnson
J.T., For the record, if I'm saying a record is clearly record of the year, I'm not presuming to speak for others. Apologies if that's not implied. Perhaps 'everyone will love it' is a bit strong, but I didn't think anyone would react so strongly to my enthusiasm for it. If I'm very excited about a record I'll use strong superlatives to describe how much I like it. That's just me and clearly we differ in that regard. If I'm creating hype, so be it. If people listen to what I'm saying and buy a record mindlessly as a result (which I very much doubt, David excepted ;)), then I think of that as a mild drawback compared to the positives of opening people's eyes to (IMO brilliant) music they may not have otherwise heard. Obviously I don't expect everyone will like it as much as I do but I think a good chunk of the people on this list will like it a whole lot. I guess I don't see the harm in that enthusiasm. Mindless consumption will happen in lots of places. If there are a few people consuming underground techno mindlessly (I really don't see that there are a lot who do) and I'm adding to their rank, so be it. If you see my enthusiasm as a fascist squashing of dissenting opinions, you're wrong. One of my least favorite things in the world is people who think they're right. Also for the record, my response was more directed at Tom's perception that this may be a trend, than your choking on my hype. I've not been this excited about anyone in techno since I don't know when, so perhaps that will make my hype a bit more credible, or maybe it's just more hype. I see the value in comparison. It may not be fair to say one thing is clearly better than the rest, but if it's an accurate assessment of my feelings then I'll say it. Charts and reviews are always tricky but they serve their purpose as recommendation. If there weren't room to compare, rank (and hype), this list would be as flacid and uninstructive as a promo sheet. Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: (313) Matthew Johnson
I could not agree more with all of Derek's rant. Note for the record, I've been evangelizing about Mathew Jonson since I first saw him live @ Fabric this Spring. I'm not saying that to underscore the 'ahead of the curve' factor, just to say that this is not some f*cking trend based on two new releases! Everyone will love it, and I want everyone to take note! That is the only reason I've taken time to mention it. Precisely as Derek said, the hype is there because the music represents everything that techno is. I simply don't have enough superlatives for it. If people want to see it as a trend, that speaks more about their jadedness than the quality of the music they're critiquing. No one has has ever consitiuted a trend on thier own, and his inimitability will always keep him afar from classification. Let's revisit this discussion in 5 years and see if it's a trend.

Well, to be fair there were three floors at St. Andrews, each quite themed. The top floor was Monolake, Deadbeat and Biosphere, the main room was Speedy J and Chris Liebing all night and Mathew Jonson was on downstairs with Derek Plaslaiko and Matthew Dear following him.

Meant to follow-up on this earlier but couldn't face the computer for long last night following the lingering effects of the OC/Digital Soul party (which was fantastic by the way). People should book Dan Curtin more. He said he's only played Detroit once, which floored me. I s'pose the midwest's loss is our (temporary) gain. Anyway... the track I was on about (that sounds like Millenium to Millenium) is probably "Blues For You" off this: http://www.discogs.com/release/22685. Can't say for certain since I only have a comp CD, but Jonny said that is likely it. It may have been a sample - hard to tell as you say. I should clarify I don't think UR sampled it, as the chord stabs are comprised of quite a few notes, and with Millenium to Millenium's extra chord change I think they likely gained (a lot of) inspiration from it and re-played it simlirarly. Or maybe I'm overstating the similarity... Would be nice to know if others think it sounds the same if they can line 'em up next to each other. I've been lining up the CD at the same time as an RA sample of M II M across different rooms, so I can't put them in the mix together or hear it with that much fidelity. Alex, you should definitely check these releases above (I'd be really surprised if you didn't like them) and some of his newer stuff on Spiritual Life and Natural Resource. I think of him as the Larry Heard of the east coast. Here's some of my other fav's: -His remix of Oda Oya on http://www.discogs.com/release/37819 or http://www.discogs.com/release/44433 -Dan Curtin's remix of this: http://www.discogs.com/release/4254 (the rest is pretty good but not great) -His Natural Resource record: http://www.discogs.com/release/59777 (seriously deep. You can check one of the tracks in my mixon Emotion Electric) Re: Joe Louis/Lewis there's quite a bit to chose from, and quite a range, from older Chicago jack and acid (of which I know very little - Placid and James would be much better resources), some mid-'90s Relief stuff that goes from what you'd expect to very deep Detroit house/techno on the last release, and that Netherlands EP on Elypsia which was totally unexpected for me. Ultra-lush techno and electro. I guess some of this variety can be explained by the whole Jamie v. Joe thing, of which I also have heard very little until recently.

(313) Movement DVD + CD
Anyone else pick up the Movement 2003 DVD at this year's festival? It's predictably a bit self-promotional, somewhat limited in scope and somewhat short, at about 45 minutes, but there's some very nice footage in there and a great interview with Marcus Belgrave, Francisco Mora and the other horn player from Detroit Experiment who's name escapes me. At any rate, I think the high-quality video of some of it makes a much better memento of the festival than online video or pictures. Wonder what others think of it and if anyone knows where it can be purchased online, if it is available commercially yet. [313 spotting]: There's a great shot of John Ossalaer and Anick, another one of Bart (AKA Red D) dancing and a few good short shots of Steven Roy (DJ Revolver) and Bill Van Loo of Thinkboxx. Also, had a brief listen to the CD the other day and thought it was a nice cross-section of what's happening in Detroit right now. Haven't properly ingested it yet but it seemed good on a scan.

Re: (313) washington dc?
There's actually a load of good local deep house DJs but the touring artists that come through are very un-chancey. Not many people you can't see in every other large urban area in the US. Some of my favorite locals were Darrow, Milo, Omar Faisson, Brian Stewart, Doug Smith (of 95 North) and Sam the Man Burns. Brett Dancer lives in Balto now I think, and was doing Vicki's Sanctuary stuff this time last year, which Pope and Oji from Balto also used to do - on the more spiritual tip. Looks like that is still the case according to this: http://www.dcsanctuary.com/. If you're looking for a good, largely black crowd, this is the place to go. The best party I saw in DC was when Ron Trent played there. My favorite venue in DC is the Blue Room in Adam's Morgan: http://www.blueroomdc.com/. The food's good and the beverage selection is top-notch. They have a very fun open turntables night there (still on but not sure what the music will be like these days - show up by 7 to spin). The amazing Sunday night 'Filler' party is now gone unfortunately and it appears Milo's 'Root' weekly is as well. :( Carl 'El Hombre Pintado' or Brian Stewart still seem to be spinning some Saturdays, which should be a nice option for deep house, although the crowd at most places in DC on Saturdays can be a bit annoying. Conversely on Wednesdays, on the broken beat tip, try to check out Julius and John Johnston at the free Abstract Motion party on Wednesday's at club 5 (Upcoming Guests: Kyoto Jazz Massive, Bugz in the Attic, and Ian Frost), or wherever else they may be playing when you get there. More info on these guys here: http://www.groovedistrict.com. Good peepz and tunes. Should avoid most of the typical '5' crowd on a Wednesday. Thursdays you can usually find something good at Red or 18th Street Lounge in Dupont Circle, both around the corner from '5'. Most Friday's in DC are pretty bleak due to Buzz's overwhelming domination of the scene. As Lara said, the techno scene is virtually non-existant post-Filler and Metrotechno evacuation (not that it was very prevalent then). All that said, it's a fun place in general. Tool around in Dupont Circle or Adams Morgan long enough and you'll find fun. More info on venues here: http://www.lemurgene.com/venues/ (oh and on that note the Lemur Lounge parties in Alexandria were fun - not sure if they're on still though). 313 topicality: Did Keith Worthy ever move out there?

(313) Future of Movement
Right. I was at the press conference and this was discussed in some detail. It must be noted that there already is an existing management structure behind the festival who have credibility independent of it. Check Barbara Deyo who seems to have been running most of it, the Scottish woman (who's name I don't remember that handled the bookings) that has experience organising large festivals in the UK, the Detroit dude who is also on the Superbowl planning committee, etc. My impression from the press conference (given that there was some obvious spin in bits) was that there is a committed group of experienced people running things who are totally pressured between the tension we're feeling in these arguments - commercialism versus integrity. What I took from the discussion is that they actually *have* the people in place now, they just need the funds from Movement '04 to make things happen right in '05. Perhaps that's an overly optimistic simplification and the opinion formed based on a glimpse of info from someone 4000 miles away, but there you have it. The most salient thought in my mind is that the money has to come from somewhere other than the city. You remember that thread about federal cutbacks on school funding in Detroit the other week? Is Movement really more important? No. We either need to fund it out of our own pockets or there has to be more sponsorship. My recommendation (for what it's worth): charge $1 per entry. That way you incent people to support the vendors and can get at least an additional $500,000 of support, which also gives advertisers more of a feeling that they will get the attention they want. Just a thought. Also keep in mind that people are going to fight hard to make it happen in its current format, not f*cking with the integrity, perhaps experimenting with different means of funding it in order to retain the $75-80 million of revenue this means to the city every year.

Rolando, Buzz Goree and Suburban Knight were the other DJs billed, which is where I think the confusion may be coming from, as their names were flashed on the screen throughout. From what I can piece together from Keleigh Casper's "In the Flesh" article in last week's Metro Times with a picture of 10 UR peepz and my dim memory of the dimly lit show, the other keyboardist was "Unknown Soldier". Not sure about the drummer. > the guy on the drums was way hot. Yeah. That was an octopad he was playing I believe. Think it's a Yamaha drum pad.

I imagine these were semi-stripped down versions of the tracks to allow the keyboardists a bit more room to play. But this is how 'Numbers' was brought in if nothing else. Dex kinda faded it across while the live bits continued atop it, then he faded back to get back into the other track, 'Return of the Dragons' IIRC. There were a few really amazing moments in this show, but I was in a horrible allergies-gone-wild + too much smoking phlegm evacuation state to really enjoy it with the thickness of the air in there. I had to step outside a few times to avoid fainting. The overall sound was about what I expected. The noodliness got a bit much for me in parts, but the stripped-down bits really hit the nail on the head for me. Ilana Weaver AKA Invincible did a cool rap to an Interstellar Fugitives track (someone told me that's what it was anyway). I'm gonna be totally in the minority when I say it didn't blow me away, but I'm glad I saw it because there were some really memorable bits there. The one thing I think is sort of strange is that in that Metro Times interview, Mad Mike says he didn't want to show off their music at the festival because it goes over better in small spaces, but I think that's precisely where I'd like to hear something that was so much of a 'jam', if that makes any sense. At any rate, I'm sure the more adorring fans can fill in more of the blanks. I'm only really into a couple handfuls of UR tracks *that* much, so I enjoyed it about as much as I thought I would!

(313) Movement Report
A few hundred pictures later we are back safely in London. Hannah and I had a great festival. I thought it was as good as last year or the second year, and really have trouble measuring the greatness of the festivals side by side except to say that the first wil always be the best (as you'd expect) and the third held the least appeal for me personally. Anyway... I think everything I saw at the festival this year was excellent. That was: Derek Plaslaiko Cam Amp DJs Amp Fiddler TP + MoReese Fat Freddy's Drop Alton Miller Ron Trent Danny Krivit Sean Deason Aardvark All Out K Kenny Larkin Electrofunk A couple of scheduling collisions mean I missed a few things I most wanted to see, but... you'll have that every year. Long sets meant it looks like we didn't see that much but we watched most of these acts straight through. Top three highlights of the afterparties were: Claude Young and Shawn Rudiman (unfortunately the only bit of that I caught) Mathew Jonson Live Carlos Souffront Only huge dissapointment was the Osunlade no-show. :( All told, I think the thing that will stand out the most for me about this year's festival was how funny it was, like: May is Drinking Water Month in Detroit Derek Plaslaiko playing 'Baby Got Back' The Japanese fella and the chicken-white-girl-hater wrestling The Hard Rock Cafe playing Rob Hood on its outdoor speakers Derrick May on a golf cart with bullhorn in-hand, demanding people's money Kenny Larking getting heckled for a comedy routine The cleaning lady at the Shorecrest showering Pittsburgh and Iowa with a trash can Argh...

Dunno about that but I'm really excited about this lineup. The only fault I can see is there are quite a few repeat performers, but whatever. I don't actually consider that a fault myself, just the only one I could sorta see. Here's some peepz I'm really excited about: Aardvark - Hope they put him on in the day somewhere.

Danny Krivit - duh Derek Plaslaiko - word Madlib and PBW ft Jay Dee - OMFG hip hop gone wild! Malik Alston Painted Pictures - should be very tasty, anyone know what the Painted Pictures thing is all about? Mike Geiger - impeccable selection every time I've seen him so far DJ Nova - [313] old timer gettin' his due. He seriously rocked a party with TP at the first DEMF and his radio shows were the bomb Duplex Live - anyone seen Duplex live before? Fat Freddy's Drop - see my other post Francois K - duh Joris Voorn live - I hear nothing but great things Kai Alce - Excellent. Not many other opportunities to see him yet Kelvin Larkin - He rocked Iowa City about 5 years ago. Expect very good things Kenny Larkin - He rocked Liverpool recently Mike Grant - Hope he gets a chance to rock out in the sunshine for a hometown crowd Mike Huckaby - ditto Osunlade Live - Holy crap has he even done this before??? Recloose - Hope he gets some monitors this time Red Nose Distrikt - Been looking forward to seeing them (or is it 'him' now) for quite some time Rolando - He rocked Plzen recently Ron Trent - One of my top 5 favorite house DJs Sean Deason - More [313] timers doin' good. :) Stacey Pullen - Was much more on-form when I saw him last than he has been since '97 Tortured Soul Live - Like Kent said So who else should I be excited about? I know very little about Ellen Alien or Legowelt except that I trust many people who rate them. Am I imagining it or did Kevin Reynolds used to work for Transmat? Has he done something else too?

Hmm... I'm not hook line and sinker on every track he does, but when he hits it, he hits precisely the right spot. Really I don't think his on-point percentage is that much lower than most highly regarded techno producers, especially since most of us are judging him by two EPs. I mean, Piece of Mind is easilly one of the best techno/electro tracks of last year, if not the best. 'Chicago' off the 2nd EP is also damn fine, and the others would likely be purchase-worthy if they weren't overshadowed by these two (at least for me). There's something about the melodies in 'Piece of Mind' - the way they cross a wide octave range and how it all ties together, that really appeals to me. I can't think of the simple arrangement of it as a drawback. Many of my favorite songs have a rigid structure. I think people have developed this idea over time that techno/house/electro is supposed to have a sort of constant variance, when in actuality a lot of great techno/house/electro has that rigid structure and uses it to its advantage. Like if you look at Terrence Parker's "Your Love". That track has the most rigid structure of any song I can think of, but the core of it is so tight that the rigidity just defines and and amplifies the groove - as though the restriction (restraint???) is what draws your attention to the perfection of its parts as one. I mean, this is *precisely* how 95% of the best hip hop has always operated (perhaps only until recently), and probably my all-time favorite house song, 'Can You Feel It' operates with about the same sort of melodic density and rigid structure. Cajual made a damn fine living releasing stuff like this. I think there's something to be said for knowing when you've got it right and not f*cking with it any more. That said, I've heard almost universally that his live sets need a bit more liveness to them, so if that's what we're actually talking about, then I think the point is well made. However, the question of digital vs. analog should have nothing to do with this debate. Some people make really nice, soulful, warm, whatever you wanna call it music with a computer. Some people make thin, flacid crap with gear. Don't blame the tool. Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: (313) Caspar Pound RIP
As posted on LD earlier: Personally, his influence, and that of Rising High was enormous. The House is Mine did as much for my love of techno as any other song - no exageration. I used to listen to it on the radio in '91 (the only outlet around me at the time), and I'd always wait impatiently for that Chuck D sample to appear. After they stopped playing it routinely I'd harass them with requests until I finally found it on the 'Rising High Techno Injection' comp that Instinct released in the US. Thankfully, Instinct paid a great deal of attention to them, since Instinct were one of most widely available labels for CDs at the time. Those compilations opened my mind to all the stuff named above, even moreso than R&S. I quickly started to track down the Rising High originals and found some gems that totally extended my tastes. At that time in the states, very little was available on CD except for extremely cheesy novelty rave, and a few random releases that would be very hard to track down without a good store or a lot of luck. Rising High were probably the first label that got that attention (via Instinct), and they were a huge eye-opener for me. I always loved Casper Pound and/or Pete Smith's stuff a ton, including some oft-neglected things like the New London Scool of Electronics but there was so much other amazing stuff too: Paragliders, Air Motherf*cking Liquid, the first two Wagon Christ's and that amazing Wagon Christ remix of MLO's Wimbourne (not to mention the other amazing mixes of it), Irresistible Force's 'Global Chillage' (probably the best shelf-life of any of their releases) and some trance stuff that hasn't dated quite so well but totally killed at the time, like Union Jack, etc. All of this acted as a gateway to so much other music for me. I seriously can't imagine where my tastes may have wound up if it weren't for Mr. Pound and Rising High. A very sad loss indeed. Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The Shorecrest looks like it's going to be out of control, with the Iowa and Pittsburgh techno mafias staking out a sizeable chunk. Festival schmestival, I say. Come the 5th year I just wanna have a good party with the peepz. If it happens in Hart Plaza, that's a big bonus, but mostly it's a time for the Detroit lovers of the world to come together and party full-stop. You KNOW the afterparties are gonna be the business. Why must people doubt? Every year it gets sh*t on, every year (even the 3rd) we have an amazing time. I won't be canceling plans for attendance until I see it turn in to something trully horrendous first-hand. How good does the Green Light Go party look? Seriously. I've missed Claude Young too many times to count since I was stupid enough to skip out on the Black Nation party in Kalamazoo circa '99 (I think). Getting to see him spin in Detroit for the first time would be some very tasty icing on *that* cake. Yel 2 looks fairly unmissable as well; don't know that I can skip another chance to see Mathew Jonson. Seriously y'all, DO NOT SLEEP! Also, I note that TP has been confirmed in the 'Necto tent' (not sure if that's an equivalent to the CPOP tent, or an equivalent to the Ford Focus stage), as has Kai Alce. Not sure if I posted this before, but has anyone else noticed his remix of Noni's "Nobody's Fool" on Prescription 104 since he came to prominence? That's a long gap between 1994 and 2003!!! I know there was other stuff in between, but damn! Any word on Planet E, Sound Signature or KMS parties? Cannonball? I'd find it *very* difficult to skip a Cannonball if it came around again. Surely those in the know would keep quiet, but I can't help but ask given my years of faithful patronage. ;) I know DC's Sanctuary (of which Brett Dancer is now a part - you may also know Pope and Oji's anthem 'We all lift our hands in the Sanctuary') will be having a bash, but not sure that I need to do that on a trip to Detroit.

Re: (313) My take on Yussel
This whole argument is moot. I've seen Mills spin like six times in the last year and a half, and he certainly hasn't played the same set every time, or anything even close. The only commonality has been that he's played lots of his own material, and lots of those tracks are similar set-to-set. Fair play, it's his music. If he played the same set while on one tour, that's one thing (and understandable for reasons already cited), but tour-to-tour it just doesn't hold water. Late last year he played Fabric and was throwing in house and disco, as he was when he played The End earlier that Autumn. It was different stuff each time as well. Since then I haven't heard him do that as much, but each set has still been substantially different. Perhaps this argument held water a few years ago - I don't know. It certainly doesn't now though. Reading tracklists of online mixes does not equate to seeing him perform regularly first-hand. Tristan === http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The things that made the biggest impression on me about the main event is how happy everyone seemed to be with their sets, and how open-minded the crowd was. I guess I just don't often get the same sense of excitement from larger crowds. It still felt very intimate although the venue was fairly big and reasoanbly full. It's really hard to pick out a highlight of the evening for me, because I was running back and forth between everything all night, and it's rather blurry anyway. Gutted about missing all of the Blowmen (our sets overlapped). Really really enjoyed what I heard of Rolando. Chris Finke's drum 'n bass action was dope (slept through his later set, as pictures will evidence with much hilarity soon). Lee's set was a particular stand-out for me as well, since we're on such a similar musical wavelength. The rest of the weekend was rather messy of course.
