[313] Re:[313] Theremin/Electronic Odyssey
Yeah, a housemate hired it on video last year. the reunion between theramin, and clara rockmore was touching, if a little strange. his work was unbelievable, and the kgb stuff was nuts too. But Wilson's little monologue took the cake. The man is insane, he rambled, he made no sense whatsoever. if fact i was surprised they kept it in the doco, but it was funny.

Features comments by musicians Todd Rundgren, Brian Wilson, and Clara Rockmore, plus inventor Robert Moog, and Theremin himself. _ Free email with personality!

[313] Re:[313] Moody DJs - Dave Clarke
i must say i'm surprised to see this discussion as when DC played adelaide earlier this for our Big Day Out festival, he not only came back for an encore and danced around by himself behind the decks, he also jumped down and shook hands, signed autographs and chatted with people for a little while after his set... maybe he just likes the festival vibe... but what about someone like surgeon - when i saw him he djed with zero visual emotion, in fact i'd say barely acknowledged the tiny crowd, but was i complaining... i don't think so...

Re: [313] diffrent strokes 4 diffrent folks
eerie, a friend and i were discussing this last night... she claimed that this kind of marketing ploy/rumour is called a mime(not sure of spelling - pronounced meem)... haven't been able to find true definition of this but it supposed to be a crazy phenomenon... i mean i heard of it from quite a few people, and now it's on the list so as a marketing ploy it works incredibly well can any one else add to this idea/defintion??? prolly best to reply off list...

Re: [313] Opinions..
cyclone wrote... the promoters can't work together and it gets a little too personal at times - that's putting it mildly, actually. Sometimes it's like a Cold War around here. i know getting promotors of different styles to work together ain't prolly gonna happen... but RMR's enchanted forest party in december has a lineup as follows: DJ's Bryan G (UK), Chris C (UK), MC/DJ Ribbs (UK), Space Dj'z (UK), Ellis Dee (UK), Trooper (Melb), Paul Holden (syd), NXN (perth).. and the promotors for that are NRG djs... but with space dj'z ribbz and added to that locals/acts dj bold, mr s. cycloid and most adelaidean tech hedz would be happy... plus i get to see ellis dee brian g if i can be bothered... the point to this is that parties with big name only work in adelaide if promotors cover techno, nrg, dnb house... which i suppose promotes diversity but then i would/and will pay $40 to see the tech acts at EF3 but it means you really only get 1 big crew putting on the same style parties, and that gets very same old after a time == sex without love is as hollow and ridiculous as love without sex Hunter S Thompson - June 4, 1958, NYC == _ Free email with personality!

Re: [313] Opinions..
sims would be a drawcard to a few in adelaide too but unfortunately the numbers here means if the promotors put on a party it's only a few hundred dedicated adelaideans that are there, so they just can't afford to do the parties it's a sad truth that a party with umek, valentino, common factor, recloose, and wet musik can't pull a big enuff crowd to break even... i also heard that sydney doesn't get that many tech acts - and that was from techione aka damc a sydney-sider i don't know about a national mag, i always cringe when i see the word dance specially in tech related discussions our local street press seems to only devote 1 page to tech, and maybe 2 record reviews... [cw] ps cyclone: r u affiliated with onion in adelaide at all From: Cyclone Wehner [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is talk of a national dance mag starting in Australia - based in Sydney and run by UK publishers - and I fear this will mean that our diversity will be compromised. It's very hard to convince English industry types (esp those aligned with large clubs) that each country has its own unique make-up and that other scenes are not merely small, backward models of theirs. They just come here and see what they want to see. Very few industry types in Sydney have a clue about techno (it is very subcultural there, I think other Sydney guys on this list would agree, this is why we should send Christmas cards to Southern Outpost, Fuzzy, etc, for keeping it real!!) so if a magazine came out of there you could bet that people we care about in Melbourne or Adelaide or Perth or Sydney's underground would have to conform. Thank God also that the Sydney street press still covers techno and at least gives people the option of finding out about it, a Sydney glossy won't do the same. Any one see that letter written by Sydney's Ministry of Sound boys in 7 in which they refuted that Ben Sims was popular in Australia with the rather embarassing who the hell is Ben Sims? Nice guys who just have to do their homework. Like they didn't have an inkling that Sims was a drawcard in cities like Melbourne. It was really funny to us but was more Sydney-centricism/UK-centricism than ignorance. == in the raw red dusk we said good-by, on a bridge over a superhighway... kerouac - OTR, 1958 == _ Free email with personality!
