drexciya's aural imaging has always been hot! this album, in my opinion, is
not as 'wet' as previous material; maybe abdul did madd art before hearin'
finished product, but this album has a real retro feel, quite warmer than
their collins class/future push-button battlezones of yoreout.bond.

nick; there are plenty of souls on 313. it's great to see young folk be
open - minded enough to check out the trax tha old catz made back in their
day. detroit techno has it's roots in these fabulous artists' recordings. to
give you a brief analogy: a 1970 model volvo was/ is considered boxy,
square, safe, conservative. the 2000 model shares the same basic attributes,
only looks a little more polished. a 2000 model cadillac?, don't know much
about these, but a 1970 model cadillac coupe - now that's got soul. pity

that's exactly right! tools are tools - only an artisan can create beautiful
music with them. good art stands on it's own. it's very hard to convey the
multiple spectral emotions involved in a good set, if the fundamentals are
non-existant.

i believe that good sets are borne from much experience - a chef goes to the
market, some funky ingredient becomes the glint in his eye, and presto, it's
added to the mix later on at dinner, he instinctly knows it gonna be bad-ass
course, people eatin' will be like, " damn, this food is the bomb, have you
got somethang else we can wrap our mouths around? " chef doesn't read the

benjamin: australia has always been on the techno map, though our down under
geographical position has made it hard for our best dj's and producers to
perform on the world stages - yes, there has been exceptions, but the jewels
have yet to be polished. don't know about the current state, but adelaide in
early nineties was on the absolute forefront of things - just ask 2120.
sydney has some slammingly sublime things happenin', but they are supported
by a very small minority. most promoters in sydney, unfortunately, promote
themselves instead of looking at the big picture of developing a broad-based
techno community. it's a crying shame as there is so much talent here.

Re: [313] heiko laux?

2000-10-28 Thread debonair
i quite like his compositions for the mood he 
evokes. his work is pretty minimal, mainly 
four on da floor, with very nice chords floatin'
all over the midrange.
heiko laux is obviously a deep thinker, with the
introspect of an astute observer of the detrimental
component of society.
his work is parallel to vladimir manshansden, jochem
peteri, stefan robbers, thomas koner...in that it portrays
beauty in a manner which is akin to the beauty which is
contained in a negative, which has yet to be processed
into a photograph - it's there, but only apparent to the 
experiencd eye. it's a quite dark viewpoint.

forget the re-mixes; they're like taking your painstakingly
composed images to the 1 hr fotomat.

Here's something to spark some much needed
critical analysis on this list: if you had to name the
fifty best AND most important electronic CD's of
the past 25-odd years, what would they be?
Here are my picks. I've been working on this for a
while; believe me, I have considered most albums
people are going to point out are absent. However,
I'd love to discuss why you think that record is important.
And yes, I do know Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson,
Black Dog, and some others are not on here, and I think
I can defend my decisions.

Wow! 40+ responses. That made my day.
To any artists out there, I don't mean
disrespect, only stating my personal ideas
about my favorite records. Don't mean to offend.
I'm on the clock, here are my defenses:

Re: Herbie Hancock, Bob Marley, Parliament, etc.

Jazz, reggae, soul. This is a specifically electronic list. Great artists,
but in totally different genres.
And, BTW, I think King Tubby has a lot more in
common with modern electronics then Bob Marley,
and not to start yet another debate, but I have gotten
more from Yabby You's 2CD retrospective than
every other reggae/dub record I've heard in my life
put together (Congos, Burning Spear, Horace Andy, etc.)
That might be my favorite record.

Re: Juan Atkins

I love Juan Atkins. I don't want to seem like I'm disrespecting
Juan Atkins, and I'm probably the only person in the 313
world who thinks this, but I never cared for his music.
He was a great influence on people to _MAKE_ electronic
music: I don't think he, musically, had any influence on
Derrick May, who is the man all techno producers probably
concede started their careers. Derrick might not agree with
me, but I hear no trace of Juan Atkins on "Strings of Life"
or anything thereafter: Derrick was just so far ahead of the
game. For me, Atkins' Model 500 material sounds like the
cover art to "Classics" looks. He doesn't have (for me) the emotional
impact of his prominent predecessors (Kraftwerk, Giorgio
Moroder, even Yellow Magic Orchestra), contemporaries
(Afrika Bambaata), or "followers" (May, Craig, Banks, et al.)
And Juan's best record, I think, is "The Infiniti Collection", but when
you judge that record against what UR, Carl, Mark and Tom,
B12, the Orb, et al. I don't think it is as strong. However,
if this were a top 100 list, both Infiniti CD's would be on it, which
means Juan is still in the top 1% of producers, but I don't
think any of his CD's belong in my top 50. Juan has been a great
mentor, a great ambassador, and most other things for techno,
and deserves a great deal of admiration and praise for those
accomplishments, but I think his music is not on the level of
the artists I mentioned. Just my thoughts, I encourage everyone
who hasn't heard Juan Atkins to buy his discs and make your
own assessment: if you haven't heard him, you are missing out
on a very important piece in the techno puzzle, and I don't mean
to question his historical importance nor the fact that he would/will
be pre-requisite listening in any Techno 101 class. As my music
teacher once said, "it doesn't matter if _you_ like it." So check Juan out.

Black Dog: Bytes

I used to love this album. I still think many of the hooks
are brilliant. However, I think every track on the album has
the same structure: open with a great hook, go into a
(to my ears) lukewarm middle section, end with the hook briefly
again. Listening to this album recently, all I can hear are those
middle sections, and it's gotten to the point where I can't even
listen to this anymore. Again, this is as important to be familiar
with as Juan Atkins' material (Ken, Ed, Andy don't be mad at me), but I
don't think it stands the test of repeated listening. I could be wrong.
If you're a DJ, you need this record, because the hooks work
phenomenally in sets. All other 313 fans will probably still need
to own this album. Me? I'm jaded. I don't like this record anymore.

Claude Young: DJ Kicks, Mills picks, and the high % of DJ records

My feeling remains that techno is a DJ format, especially hard
techno and tracks that aren't gifted with much more than a slightly
catchy hook. A good DJ can make a set out of mostly good, not stellar
tracks I'd never buy otherwise into something brilliant (in fact,
almost all the DJ albums I have do this.) In fact, DJ mix albums are
usually much more interesting because, let's face it, techno is
repetetive, and if the groove isn't insanely good, who wants 5:00 of it?
(KDJ is the only modern producer whose full tracks (his good ones, that is)
don't seem long at 9:00, but in fact, not long enough (I listened to that
Misled
12" like forty times the first day I got it.)) This is my problem, for
example,
with most of the Mills CD's. As a DJ, Jeff knows that concision (if that's
not a word, it should be) is the key, and he displays this unbelievably well
on "Live at the Liquid Room, Tokyo" which is one of the greatest records
ever in techno (would make my top 5.) Most of the other DJ mix discs
do a similar thing. The reason I don't include the other Mills discs is
because: 1) I think "Live at the Liquid Room, Tokyo" sums up his material
(and the rest of the hard techno scene) far better and 2) I think
