Re: Detroit visit

2019-02-01 Thread denisedalphond
Definitely go to Submerge. Maybe that was already in your plans. 

Spectacles
Dilla’s Donuts

Anytime you visit Detroit is a wonderful time. Visit Belle Isle. Even in the 
cold. It’s beautiful. 

And then Detroit’s Metro Times and Real Detroit, both newspapers, have pretty 
good visitors guides on their websites - like for food and record stores. 

Marble Bar is often good for music. 

Have fun!

The only time I’ve been to marble bar was when a man I was hanging out with was 
playing with his band called Johnny Ill Band. They opened for TOPS who were

That’s good for Moodymann, who plays in Detroit a lot. So that’s good for

Mike Banks should have been treated with way more fanfare and better questions. 
But he gets to take that enormous, global stage. That’s good for Mike Banks and

 neuro-typical mind, and often struggle to keep up with a conversation.
 
 The feeling I woke up with this morning was that James Stinson did feel 
 very strongly about it, that I should know, and I hand't really listened 
 to what he said in the interview. I felt bad about it, because it was 
 ignorant. In the same manner I would defend other parties that fail to 
 appreciate the sensitive nature of it, as probably not aware of the 
 insult. I just didn't see it that way, that the interpretation as a 
 listener probably just suited my own world view. I want to be clear that 
 I'm not disappointed if that were the case, and I regret writing that I 
 would be disappointed. I am not personally ashamed, but I see no reason to 
 be disappointed. It's fair enough. I just don't really know enough about 
 it, leading to my ignorance.
 
 It's funny the emoticon you have put there looks like happy surprise 
 (though it probably depends on the image being used in the particular 
 email reader I guess). It's hard to tell if it's meant to be. You seem 
 happily provocative, and I don't really object to that. I might go and 
 read more of what you have got to say about it. The music is something

Your tone is extremely condescending. I chose the emoji because it is rude.

You could read my works. My latest essay that addresses Drexciya and UR and 
Moodymann and revolution is getting some pretty good reviews. 

I already shared the book in an earlier email. I’m arrogant, but not arrogant 
enough to post the link again. 

Also, I don’t care about 1 or 10 or 50 white people who are bigots, you’re all 
the same to me. I’m not gonna waste my energy debating with you about who you 
are. And I have to look like you. It sux. 😢

 Resident Advisor didn't credit Andrew Duke when they first posted the

 brilliant, musical escape from enslavement and forced labor. Escape from

 Oh here goes Denise, making everything about race. But this actually all 
 the way super duper is all about race and racism. 
 
 And how much electronic music culture coverage is based in europe, the

 Music fans and writers should be more concerned about preserving and 
 protecting and respecting the culture that made this music. 
 
 Why didn't they ask Cornelius Harris to narrate? Why didn't they ask John 
 Collins to narrate? That would be meaningful to artists and fans alike.

“The paradox of black cultural movements -- Techno, Hip Hop, Jazz, Blues etc -- 
is that it is dependent on the majority culture -- i.e. mostly white -- to 
support it, because they are the ones with the numbers money.  Remaining true 
to that culture without diluting it is always a challenge, among all the other 
challenges to being an artist.”

Artists can bow down to the white dollar or make revolutionary art, huh. Kenny 
Dixon seems to do both. 

White people are on our way out as a majority. So your old ways of thinking 
won’t hold true in even five years, and they don’t hold true for many people 
right now.

It’s healthy to question our perspectives and good to acknowledge the ways that 
people with white skin do not suffer. Even if it feels awkward or uncomfortable 
sometimes, it’s that way for everyone, and it’s better than ignoring other 
peoples’ experiences. 

And we as techno fans have the luxury of answering to the great city of 
Detroit. Michigan is a racist place. So I think, what do my music idols 
experience at the grocery store or at the airport or the bank or from cops, 
probably some bullshit from white people that look like me. And then I get 
really embarrassed. 

And pissed off. And then I think of creative ways to fight back. 

You don’t have to do that as a techno fan, but you can. It’s an option. And 
it’s fun.

I was co-founder if the Detroit Sound Conservancy with Carleton Gholz. 
Together, we hosted educational tours of Submerge, created the Dan Sicko 
scholarship for new Detroit journalists, and made plans for cultural 
preservation in Detroit music culture. 

I often make sure no one is being racist, but that’s been near impossible on 
this listserv. They think I’ll stop. 

I don’t make music because my time is full with my three kids and everything 
else. I’m not a DJ because I would forget and start dancing and make the needle 
jump. I do want to play on a modular synth someday. 

Thanks for joining this listserv!

 Do you honestly think that black artists in the US can live off of 
 cultural recognition by the city of Detroit?
 How many Detroit techno records are selling in the Detroit area? 
 UR has trouble paying the bills. Musicians need to make money. 
 You can't make a living as a Detroit techno artist IN DETROIT. 
 All the artists you mentioned got notoriety overseas before they got 
 hometown recognition.
 
 Musicians need to work together to carry on the work that UR started, and 
 part of this work is trying to find a way to sell records in the United 
 States.
 This is hard work, and it involves all musicians and artists including the 
 Detroit techno community.
 What people write about the music second hand is not so important as what 
 musicians do to move the music forward in the present. 
 
 Motown, UR, and Chicago's AACM are all examples of the kind of ethos I 
 advocate. 
 What matters is what we musicians do to help each other and build a better 
 future together. 
 Building a better future is what techno is all about.

We should hear the voice of a Black Detroiter narrating about Detroit music. 
How often does that happen. That doesn’t communicate that the music is only for 
people of color. White people are never excluded from anything. And in 2018, 
unintentional? Please.

Luis Manuel Garcia writes amazing pieces about intersectionality in club

DJ Bone had a good release (his first) in the 90s. Octave One -I'm a fan of

Silentintroduction, Dem Young Sconies is my favorite. David, I'm sure you're
