Re: [313] Re: vinyl walkman
I have an old Fischer Price portable vinyl player. That thing is still the bomb, except when playing 12" records, it gets a little sketchy as the vinyl rubs up against the tone arm post.. dan robitaille - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[313] re: ambient techno recommendations
> - Flourescence EP by Space Time Continuum Well, there are two techno-ish tracks on this album, and two mello ambient tunes which are simply timeless. Other recommendations on the Reflective label are Reaganz (highly unique yet annoying techno/idm) and Single Cell Orchestra (with some AWESOME ambient breaks and some harsh techno/idm). There is one thing about the reflective releases, it that they are out of print and very hard to find. Oh, for the spotters: the holographic imprint on one side of the Flourescence release was a series of paperclip images. Also on the STC kick, IMO Flourescene made up for the collaboration with Terrence McKenna, which to this day I find to be absolute nonesense. The music was good, the chitter about glass pipes and dmt and mckenna's leading the rave trip... well, one would have to hear it.

[313] RE: Cyclone's obscure question for the day
Namlook - Music for Ballet (1994 - Fax germany) Peter Namlook produced a cd of music created by ballet dancers. The dancers would dance through beams of light on stage, which then would trigger a tone or sound. Its a neat CD, not overly dramatic in nature. Dan To: 313 Detroit <313@hyperreal.org> From: "Cyclone Wehner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Detroit + Dance Hey Cyclone's obscure question for the day Does anyone know of any ballet (or dance) productions that may have been based on techno (or electronic music, per se). I know Laurent Garnier did something in Paris, I can't remember its name. I am interested in compiling a list. Apparently the Australian Ballet performed X, a ballet based ontribal drum patterns a while ago. I figure it would be an interesting concept. I can imagine May's music being used, Mills' more introspective material, some of Hawtin's more downtempo material, Carl's... It would be interesting to use the faster stuff too as it would force the dancers to move differently. Plus as much as we hate on ravers some of those kids can dance really well! I wonder how it would work to use some of those movements in a contemporary dance/ballet production. It would use introduce the music to new listeners, too. It must have been done somewhere!! - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[313] re: Subject: Ishkur's guide to electronic music
If one looks under ghetto tech, it lists that style as the "greatest in the world." ghetto tech artists tend to be based in detroit. I like the choice Ishkur uses for the background sample... DJ Assault's Ass n' Titties. Detroit city music at its best for sure! How come there isnt more discussion on this list of Assault or Godfather? D robitaille --original message- Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 09:55:52 -0500 Just found this site, and laughed my bloody head off. http://ishkur.com/features/music/guide.htm I especially like the description of techno: "Techno is the depressing, gritty dystopian genre. But what it lacks in soul, it more than makes up in purity of sound and a mythology so romantic it can't possibly figure out what to do with itself." I also like how Detroit techno stems from Classic techno, and how the "bangin' techno eg:jeff mills - the bells" formed out of "tribal techno eg: Peace division - feels my drums" Check out the description for tribal techno: "This goes hand in hand with trance alot. The goal is the same: to get the people naked and dancing under the stars. So who wouldn't be up for a little tribal action." - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
