Re: [313] Juan Atkins....
if there is any evidence of him being addicted to heroin, I must say that I lost all the respect I have for him as a musician, i think this is absolutely ridiculous..sorry. his choices in life shouldnt have anything to do with the respect you have for him as a musician. im not gay, does that mean i should loose respect if a musician is gay? i dont do herion, and kurt cobain was an idol to me growing uphis words meant something. i think juan has done enough for all of usto loose respect b/c of this.i just think its wrong. mike d.

Re: [313] not black enough...
the problem isnt the type of drugs--its the kids using them. give the same 16 yr old acid...they will still create the same problems they do on K or anything else. the older you get, the more responsible you get. yes, there r some (very few) exceptions. mike
Re: [313] err...
id rather abc and the mainstream think fatboy slim was an important part of techno this yr. im happy with it being underground. and yes, it still is underground. arent lists like this whats its all about? eff abc, eff em all.
Re: [313] Redefinitions (was: Re: trading on napster)
With these mp3 players, you could do midi quite easily (well for the consumer) and match effortlessly (even though would take some of the fun out of djing, as well as some frustration -- for me at least). well isnt that the point of dj'ing? fun and frustration?

In a message dated 11/29/00 6:03:48 PM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: hmmm... I'd say that turntables will go the way of the guitar (that they've replaced). Sure guitars are still played, but are our kids going to be right into what we listen to? How many people these days are right into Motown or Duke Ellington (for example)? Many respect it (and many haven't heard enough, but there is too much recorded music now to digest properly I think), but their statements have already been made. So you can't go out and be a part of a great Jazz show the way you could when it was cutting everything else. Different periods of time value different sounds in music. Maybe a computer mixer that can play unlimited tracks similtaneously with sounds you make and samples and wave files and loops, will have an easier time generating music that people will want to hear in 20 years? Now I'm not attacking anything about what's going on these days that I love, but imo it has to pass. my $0.02 Rich:) i agree here as well. this ties into a point richie hawtin made in an interview i saw. the question was, what is the next step that technology will take as far as dj'ing? (something along those lines). He basically went on to say that an interface is needed for all of the new things going on...i.e computers, mp3's etc.

RE: [313] Redefinitions (was: Re: trading on napster)
i agree with GYS, if records and turntables were going to be misplaced..it woulkd have already happened. My friends and I always talk about how its ironic that we pump out the most futuristic music, with the most manual of instruments.
Re: [313] LISA! was ford focus - with a twist
Lisa, Don't ever apologize for asking a question on this list. Thats why your here...to learn. You wont ever learn unless u asked questions. No question is dumb..so ask away with confidence! Do you see the effect you lame ass people are having on some of the not as knowledgeable people on the list? This poor girl is apologizing exceedingly, b/c shes afraid of what you people may say in reply to her post. You people are exactly what this music and scene are NOT about. We are supposed to be educating, learning, and helping others with an open mind. Instead you all choose to segregate yourselfs into this little techno cult, making others feel like they don't belong. You should all be ashamed. When you break the surface..its people like you that cause this stuff to die out. Not viks and glowsticks.. Mike D

Re: [313] who stole the soul?
MT I completely understand your views on the whole detroit techno scene, and the way you feel it has significantly gotten worse over the years. However..I am brand new to this scene...im 23 and i dont live in detroit...im on the east coast. Back in my high school days I was a punk rocker.digging all the raw and unheard soundz that these bands were showing us. After time...the mainstream caught a hold of it...and the end was near. No more respect for Green Day and Rancid. Nofx was no longer a true punk band. Why??? simple. I got older and jaded with the music b/c I knew punk music one way: in my youth. i grew up to a certain sound...and it changed. its the common saying their first album is their best. about 6 months ago...i heard the soundz of techno. it amazed me. it enlightened meand it took me away. but...i cant get into alot of the older detroit stuff why? b/c its not the style i was introduced to. I enjoy the tribal, flowing, banging stuff. marco bailey, andreas kramer, hawtin, mills...just to name a few. and i gaurentee you that in 5-10 yrs i will feel the same way you do. music..especially tekno = evolution. nothing stays the same..can u imagine if it did? it just progresses and ur not familiar with this sound. i am. and the feeling u got from going 2 a club 10 yrs agoi get now. i dont wanna leave when i go. and i am as true 2 the music as you seem 2 be. i care about it. and i will most likely feel the same way u do when my style changes. as far white/black musici dont have any answers 2 that. here on the east coast u have the following: black kids for the most part..listen to black hip-hop (isnt that synonomous?) very few listen to anything else. tekno is not nerely black music anymore. the earlier stuff..yes i can see that. funky..and housyhouse = chicago = predominantly black. yes there r some traces in todays technobut not enough for anyone who isnt into it. the bottom line is this. music to most people is not what it is to you and I. we study and disect everything we hear. to most, it is merely background music. music is changing..and it always has...and always will. that is one fact we all need to xpect. my 2 cents.mike d.
Re: [313] who stole the soul?
You're suggesting that people actually grow INTO a sound, be it Punk, Detroit techno or whatever. No. I am suggesting that as i grew up..I was familiar with a certain sound. The sound I enjoyed most at the time. I don't agree with you that one has to be introduced to a certain sound or style, and that the first encounters with any new musical style are the best or strongest you can have. I agree with what you are saying here, however that was not my point. What I am trying to say is...for me, the musical style of the present was what I began listening to in huge quantities. I adapted to it. I enjoyed it. Its not to say that I wont like anythjing else, but this is what I was familiar with. I find this philosophy that every generation has it's idols disturbing. People are not computers where you download a certain operation system every other year (=musical trends), and once you've passed your youth you're stuck with the music you listened to. Of course not. Music is culture, and culture has the ability to survive thousands of years, there's no sell-by date in it, it doesn't lose it's energy like a battery. Once again..agreed. However i was responding to the individual who was speaking of seeing things get worse. I listen to alot of music that wasnt popular for my generation. But I can also relate alot music of my generation and yes you are right...i like it hard and bangin. mike
Hard House
Ok. recently I have been getting into the UK hard house stuff. lisa lashes, tom harding, judge jules(more trancy), fergi..stuff like that. any1 know any good websites? or just know any info on this stuff? any US dj's spin this?? mike d.
