Everyone from Juan to KMS to Rick Wade to Dan Bell to Darshan and
Morgan to Tim Sweeney to Kim Ann Foxman to Omar S, and this past
Friday, Mike Servito played Never Say Never / 12 inches of pleasure in
the 617...  party was more on the reg when I lived there, but we still
do it sometimes. The party info is always on the interwebs (ra, fb).
Other people do things too, e.g. D. Carter played last month.  So

 Are there any promoters in Boston who are involved with serious house or
 techno?

 seen him over the past 10 years he's played some great tracks. Most
 recently in Sydney (last year at the Marrickville bowling club) he
 even mixed pretty damn well as well as having a good selection. So I
 think it really depends on the club, and the style. Don't write him

an alternative view: maybe new and model 500 seem like they
shouldn't go together?

while some may not love this newest metroplex, for people to say this
doesn't sound like detroit techno, 1) does it matter to you what the
guy whose style detroit techno is thinks ??? 2) perhaps sounds more
techno to mine ear than certain of the latest transmats...

in any case... all the feedback i read makes me think: womp, womp.

and for anything a little more like listening music or experimental
not to be detroit techno... ridiculous and retarded are words that

I would like to hear the Moroder version. At the time, I really liked
the music Mills wrote for Metropolis, but always wondered why Jeff

 I've seen the Jeff Mills' one, which was fantastic and had no idea there was

 Which then makes me wonder what people think are some of the best electronic

 You might have difficulty with a semi-automatic turntable that

 Not so good for scratching and quick cuts then!

 I'm a little puzzled about some of the technical details also:

 What size is the hole in the middle?  Presumably it has to be large enough 
 to accommodate the 15mm-ish spindle CD players use?  Do
 you get some special adaptor for the smaller spindle on a vinyl turntable?

  I make a CD to be only just larger than the label area on a conventional 
 modern record.  So either it only has a few seconds
 playing time or (more likely) it has a playable groove extending further 
 toward the centre of the disc?  But not all tone arms will
 move this far, some only expect to get as far as the run out groove of 
 conventional vinyl and their range doesn't extend beyond
 that.

 Or am I being really stupid  not visualising this thing correctly?

 I'd like to think that the extra weight on the spinner in the CD player 
 would cause the electric motor to burn up
 slowly...especially the
 older ones.  Those CD players were designed to handle the weight of a CD, 
 not a CD/record.

 Then again the CD/DVD combos seem to work ok in their players even though 
 they are thicker.

 It's a CD.  But you turn it over and it's a mini-vinyl disk.  With
 music on it.  That you play on a normal record player.  So that's two

 before?

 Wow - he's The Man From Tomorrow alright!

 I've been a bit too scared to put the CD in my computer to listen to

We arrived in Detroit late Friday morning and made our way to  
Submerge before checking into the hotel.  For such a small store, it  
felt like there was a lot to delve into. I only made my way through  
half the stacks before I had to leave, but I found lots and lots of  
treats nonetheless.  We also checked out the Detroit techno exhibit   
upstairs.  I'm glad Cliff (I think that was his name) brought it to  
our attention.


I also made a trip to Ya Digg records. I was truly surprised when I  
pulled up to the address and saw the building it is in.  I thought  
I'd written down the wrong information.  That was completely NOT was  
I was expecting.  The store itself was a bit hard to find, which was  
a good thing because I had an opportunity to see the variety of  
other businesses within the building.  I guess that is a perfect  
example of adaptive reuse.  I wonder how many other factories have  
been similarly reutilized? Gotta luv Detroit!


Ya Digg itself is a small store and still needs to settle into the  
space. It apparently opened just recently.  I didn't have enough  
energy to dig through the stacks, so I limited myself to two small  
sections and managed to spot a number of interesting items in no  
time. Cha-ching  Local heads may want to check it out, though  
you may want to come ready to rummage.


Friday evening I went to the film fest at Detroit Music Hall,  
primarily to see Metropolis.  I've had Jeff Mills' soundtrack for  
years and I've seen the original movie, but never in conjunction.  I  
thought his music worked for the most part, though the ambient  
sections seemed to work better and more often than the beat-driven  
sections.  Seeing the film while in Detroit seemed gave a whole new  
relevance to the storyline...


The 'Timeless Suite for Ma Dukes' was curious.  I don't know J  
Dilla's music at all, so I had no point of reference.  The  
orchestrations did
sound interesting. However, I noticed that at least two Erik Satie  
pieces were performed in their original and then orchestrated forms  
yet Satie wasn't mentioned, only the song titles.  If I didn't know  
any better, I might assume those were J Dilla songs.  I had to leave  
the theatre to put more $$$ in the parking meter, so I missed the  
final credits.  Hopefully, Satie was given due credit. I still don't  
understand why Satie pieces were being performed during that concert  
and what connection Satie and J Dilla have.  If anyone can explain,  
I'd appreciate it...


The Drive Home was fun to watch.  The audience reactions were very  
funny.


I had to leave early, so I couldn't stay to hear Timeline perform,  
unfortunately.


After resting a while at the hotel, I decided to check out the Dub  
Science party.  Never found it. I guess it would have helped if I'd  
been in the right part of town... :)  Eventually, I gave up and went  
to the Black Nation party at The Works.  Did Jay Denham and/or Scan7  
play at all? If so, when?Granted, I got there pretty late, but  
by 4am I gave up and went back to the hotel.


I will say up front that Paxahau should be commended for having  
improved the sound quality in the underground stage.  After trying  
different configurations, they actually found a setup that  
alleviated some of the aural problems that have plagued that space.   
Standing on the sidelines, the increased clarity was obvious but it  
became even more obvious once I went into the pit for the full aural  
experience.  Deep, chest-rattling bass and sufficient representation  
in the mids and highs to make it somewhat easier to discern what was  
actually going on in the tracks.


Of all the stages, the music at the underground stage was most often  
in tune with what I wanted to hear at the festival so I gravitated  
towards it.


Patrice Scott's set was nice warm-up music.  Since I'd managed to  
tire myself out before the festival even began, I just sat and  
listened.  It was a good way to ease into the weekend.


I really enjoyed Nico Marks' set too.  I'd never heard of him  
before, so it was pleasant treat.  I liked what I heard so much I  
picked up one of his CDs (he obviously has quite a number) at Record  
Time and have been enjoying it.Wouldn't mind hearing more of his  
work.


Mark Ernestus and Scion's sets were good, but it was much too quiet.  
Not that I was expecting the sound system to be cranked up all the  
way, but it really wasn't loud enough to fill the space  
sufficiently. What I did hear was good but I was more interested in  
staying out of the sun/heat so I never lingered at the main stage  
for very long.


Onur Ozer's set was kinda interesting and was the only thing I heard  
at the Beatport stage all weekend

 The debate over which came first doesn't even seem to be between the musicians

 Sharivari is always cited as the first Detroit Techno record, but
 given that it's a matter of weeks between when Sharivari was cut and
 when Alleys was pressed, it is probably better to award a tie.  This
 also happened years before Juan talked to the UK music press and the
 term 'techno' was coined.  So neither one was 'techno' at the time
 because there was no 'techno.'

 It's a bit like the earliest Hip Hop, before it was 'hip hop' -- the
 guys doing it thought they were making their own version of disco.

 It should also be noted that if Sharivari Test Presses were cut before
 Alleys, everyone in Detroit who was interested had heard Sharivari
 before Alleys.

Re: (313) Vinyl Shops in Manhattan?

 The Manhattan stores' greatest strength is in their used
 collections that come out of circulation from the people in the
 neighborhoods.  Diversity and rare cool records is more the style,
 and the in/out flow is strong.

 It's true that there aren't many Detroit focused vinyl stores in
 Manhattan, but there are tons of generally great record stores,
 there is especially a high density of them in the East Village/LES

 The best bet for new techno, is Vinyl Market at 10th St just west
 of 1st Ave on the uptown side.  It was closed for a while, but had
 reopened last I checked (a few months ago).

 Academy on E 12th is just a few blocks away and is excellent for
 it's all around selection.  Maybe they don't carry much from
 detroit producers, but they  do have a great disco selection, and
 even an italo section.

 There is another vinyl shop a few blocks east on 12th, I can't
 remember the name. I think maybe between A and B.  It is smaller
 and caters towards rare breaks records/funk etc.  It's smaller but
 a cool selection.  Again unlikely to find much detroit records, but
 I did get a Sadistic Mika Band album there the other day which is
 cool no matter what.

 Gimme Gimme Records in 5th street east of 1st Ave has a good
 general selection.

 Sound Library (I thought it was on Orchard below Houston) is also
 cool for old disco/electro/80s dance.  It may have moved to Ave A
 like discogs says, but I doubt it. I haven't been in a while.

 Also check out A-1 on e 6th between 1st and A.    ...  .- .-. .

As I start to prepare my own project, I am trying first to assemble a
filmography of Detroit, Detroit techno, club music, electronic music,

If anyone has some extra time on his hands, email me about any films
that were cool, or why they were not, whatever, I'd be grateful...

I've already seen, Maestro, Intellect, High Tech Soul, and a few
others.  What am I missing ?

Any music docs that you think are awesome or worth checking, let me
know about.   I havent yet seen the Artur Russell bio, nor the Chip E,

reasons...

Thanks,

Jeff Mills is on some other sh*t.  He blew up New York City last

Re: (313) DEMF statistics revealed

2009-04-19 Thread ohanakin ...
Programming of the fest has never been as good as in the first 2
years, and those that don't realize that, i don't know.  i say this
with all due respect to all involved this and recent years.  Comparing
a detroit fest that headlines marco carola, and had benny benassi,
to one in which the last poets's Umar Bin Hassan recited poetry with
Kenny Dixon and Derrick May is nuts.

One highlight for me was Mills' first time playing, when he got
slightly wizard on the decks.  (and when the mixer blew up, and dmay
got on the mic - drama is good sometimes).

And finally, a big mistake is the absence of DJ Hell.  He merits a
place on the lineup.  Maybe even a whole night or stage devoted to his
sound, from his punkier days to now, curated by him.  There's a reason
jeff mills is the international dj gigolo on gigolo 2, and its
annoying that that connection hasnt been brought to bear on the world
stage that the demf sometimes is when the music stands for itself.

I mean last year was a great year, but in my ears only because of a
few choice, hot moments at the fest, and a couple of parties that
stood out, like the friday night party at the works, and the matchless
Music Institute party.  A few of those moments and connecting with
friends is all i need.

 Detroit know who Michael Geiger is? I'm not trying to make too big of a deal

 That said, there's little rhyme or reason to this across multiple festivals

2009-02-17 Thread ohanakin ...
My take on all this is theres no excuse for a serato dj not to have
20-30 recs on him just in case

A dj can do damage for at least a good lil while with that number of records

anyways, i still think vinyl always sounds better, unless youre carl
craig and you use a radar hard recording system to burn your vinyl
with expensive converters...
http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/Aug01/articles/izradar.asp?print=yes
he outfits that with crazy converters being c2

anyway, whats the point of playing an amazing system w mp3s and such?
do you think the paradise garage, music box, or MI could have gone
down with serato ?

the time and effort required to acquire a sick record collection and
then to know how to play it out in a set and tell a story used to help
ensure that only those djs knew how to dj would get to djthey were
the ones who had already made a huge sacrifice.

now with the democratization of djing, everyone knows how to dj
supposedly  the printing press was indeed an innovation, but the
quality of literary output is surely down in a world where literacy is
epidemic and books are published every day only to be thrown out the
next, where writing has devolved into txting and blogging.  just as it
is with the written word, so too with electronic music in my book.

ps.

having said all that, i am a futurist, and innovation is where its at.
 but i think being judicious about how you go about it is key.  and in
a world full of amazing dollar records (think of how many copies of
vanity 6 are out there), it still makes $ense to own vinyl

 I've seen loads of DJs play boring sets with no consideration for
 their audience, using good ol vinyl and turntables. To paraphrase the
 NRA, Technology doesn't bore a crowd, DJs bore a crowd.

 Exactly!

 I think the important thing to remember is not process, but results.
 So much of this turntables vs software talk has nothing to do with ears,
 it is all eyes, to be honest.

 I've often wondered about this scenario:
 2 friends who love the same music attend a party together; one is sighted,
 the other has 100% loss of vision in her/his eyes; after the party, both
 want to
 talk about the music they listened and danced to that night; while the
 non-sighted
 person ends up talking about the music, chances are pretty darn high the
 sighted person is going to have been influenced in his talk by having seen
 who used tables vs who used tables and/or software, who was the flashy DJ
 vs who was low-key, perhaps also by what sex DJs were (many listen to a
 female DJ differently for some reason), age, skin color, fashion sense or
 lack
 thereof, interaction with the crowd, etc, etc, etc; so many many things that
 don't have any affect on the music heard.  Like does Strings Of Life played
 by
 a woman who is 23, uses only turntables and wears baggy trousers sound
 different than the same
 song played on the same sound system via turntable via Traktor Scratch by a
 man
 of different age, clothing, etc, etc.  Of course not!  With the sighted
 person, s/he is likely going
 to talk about the music seen/heard, not simply heard whereas the non-sighted
 person won't talk about the music seen, just heard.  (I'm not going to get
 into that non-sighted people use their ears in a more heightened manner
 because
 of not having visual sight; I'm just using this drastic juxtaposition to try
 to do
 a proper contrast to make the point).

 Personally, I don't give a darn what kind of set-up the DJs uses (ie what my
 eyes see
 in a DJ), I care about what my ears hear from that DJ in question. I don't
 like to
 watch music videos, I want to hear the darn music not see it, unless we're
 talking
 about a live PA, and that's a whole different story; we're talking DJs, not
 live acts here.

 I tell my sound design and music production students over and over again to
 turn
 the screen off or look away from it when listening to their work. That
 visual BS
 that Windows Media Player defaults to play? That's turned off in my classes
 because
 it affects, even if subliminally, how you're experiencing the music.
 This past Sunday, a student, instead of playing his homework in an audio
 player (Mac
 students in this case, so whatever the Mac player is called), wanted
 to play it in an audio editor to SHOW us the waveform version of his
 homework
 and blab on about this section vs that section, pointing to the screen and
 the like;
 I said No way, we're listening to your homework, not watching it.
 We want to hear you song with no visuals, not watch the waveform scrolling
 by in an audio editor. If you play this music for other people in future,
 they're going
 to judge it with their ears; they're not going to demand to see a visual
 representation of
 it before judging whether they dig it or not!

Due, you missed my point.  I wasnt saying the printing press killed
all culture.  it begat so much of it.  i was making an analogy.  i'm
against mediocrity.

With everyone and their mother getting in on djing, everyone and their
mother cant be that good at it, that musical, or devoted.

Between democracy and art/culture there are trade-offs.  sometimes i
dont like whats being traded.  take the whole thing of everyone
thinking they need to go to college in the us, for example.  that
doesnt go down in europe, and the youth there dont get f'ed in the ess
with student loans.

Finally, i dont know what the hell .microsound is.  sounds pretentious
and honestly i dont care to find out, no offense. i'm hip to
non-street, non-dancey higher-brow sh*t like pierre henry, or whats
labelled new music by certain people.  but really, i like vinyl,
dust (not too much), and nasty djs...

And to be clear i dont think ableton or serato are the printing
press--they are actually more related to oprahs book of the month
club, harry potter, and other least common denominators. rather for
313, the printing press would be more like the vinyl cutting machine,
the synthesizer, or roland drummachines.

 just call it bootlegging, and stop trying to elevate that to creating...

 In case no one bothers to look, they almost exclusively bootleg stuff
 like Nirvana and Devo songs on 12 singles and sometimes do simple
 edits of the stuff. They're not bootlegging records in the sense that
 they are making counterfeits (such as HTFR et al). They're also quite
 obviously bootlegs/promos -- plain white labels with block text. Big
 whoop.

 i think avowed bootleggers have no place dissing mr kenny larkin.  and
 then they diss MM too.  I forgot how hard it is to press up tracks

 Everybody has an opinion, and for a record store to actually be honest
 about theirs instead of copying the promo sheet or typing up the
 typical hype is extremely refreshing. Obviously they won't be selling
 as many of those Larkin albums as they would without that review, so
 there is no self-interest in it. I thought it was funny, but I'm not a
 huge Larkin fan...

 anyways, dissing planet e is wackif buttrich is too euro,  how
 about ican, too latino or hispano ?, the how about list goes on and
 on..

 I've been listening to Planet E records and have been friends with
 Planet E artists and staff for long enough to be entitled to my
 opinion, thank you. I think the recent records are weak and sound like
 fodder for European clubs (Larkin's aside). They do not affect me
 emotionally in any appreciable way. I have the first Buttrich and the
 Ican so I'm only talking about 2 or 3 releases. American techno is in
 shambles but what else is new.

 Larkin put some time and effort into making the record.  The best they
 could do is put some time and effort into writing a proper review.

 You guys are making a big deal out of some very inconsequential
 nonsense and trying to conflate it into deep ethical issues. COme
 onnn...I don't have the energy for this...

 Obviously they're not trying to profit from it if they're giving it a
 bad review. They are discouraging people from buying it.

 They're a record store and they can't just not carry it because they
 don't like it. FFS. Can I get some amens from people who actually
 work at/run record stores?!

 It's not unethical to sell work they think is weak - but to give a review
 that reveals less than nothing of the musical work AND try to profit from
 it, that's weak.

 Well, it's music, so you listen to it...And if you're familiar with
 the taste of the store, then it says more than it seems to I guess.

 Every online store, aside from the rare exception like Boomkat, just
 writes a sentence or two describing the style of the music and says
 Tip! or not. Hardwax says complete nonsense half of the time, I
 don't know who's writing their stuff these days. Otherwise most every
 store just copies the promo sheet, which makes me barf. When did words
 start mattering so much? I just listen to it. Or I go to Boomkat and
 read what they have to say.

 If they don't have anything to say about it (and it sucks beyond belief
 isn't saying anything) then they should not review it.

 I disagree. It made me laugh and it made me respect them for being
 honest. I only tell customers that records suck over the phone...

a ton of arrogance, just check their list of rules..they have a list of rules.

BUT, as arrogant as they are, and to my new york ears words written
uttered by bostonians (they hail from ny's largest suburb) other than
guru (the rapper) more often than not do sound arrogant, and as
unfounded as that arrogance is, they are a brick and mortar store that
carries the latest parte hardy, the latest planet e, the latest harvey
black cock repress, and the latest deutsche club trackand for that
i am ever so grateful.  last week when i went there and returned with
goodies to my crib, i was so happy to have records i bought after
listening to firsti know for a lot of people buying vinyl is
weird, but for me, it was a welcome respite from mail ordering, and a
nice change from getting my knuckles dusty from digging in musty
basement kinda places--when i do mail orders, not every track i get
ends up being the shti, coz often the segment played is right next to
a segment that sounds awful...and furthermore, every once in a while i
get a track with a skip, like my copy of jackmaster hater has a skip
on the inside mlk cut.

 Ha!  I get it Martin

 However, I look at it this way though - two guys running a record store and
 record labels that profit from other people's hard work
 their record store sells other people's records
 their record labels sell other people's music that they have never paid a
 dime for (it's all pirated)

 these guys are thieves - I don't care how anyone reformulates the excuses
 for them to make it o.k. in their mind/soul

 so for _them_  to write that review for an original music work shows
 arrogance, not honesty

I am feeling the new Patrice Scott record Far Away, really nice,
expansive and lush, great beginning of the night music, the last Levon
Vincent on a white label i just got, and also enjoying the hell out of
Runaway's Alberg 30 on Chinatown that aint 313 per se, but is hot.

Also, some chestnuts (what i call tracks that everybody acclaims and
are easy to see why) : the last mdr, and of course, the new c2 remix
of buttrich --its really rich ;)

Also also, theres a repress of Phortune's Hot Mix 5 jam,Can you feel
the Bass, and the lil louis on mathematics that has a more flanged out
version of nyce and slo,i like the original more i still think (
when played at 45 very 313)

 guess it's not that new, but I didn't see it get much attention last
 month.

 I know of one very intriguing project in the works but I don't have

 Shake (313 superhero) has a forthcoming 12 on Morphine Records called

 I may be a bit biased, but its another fantastic record from Mr.
 Shakir. A more detailed review will be posted on
 infinitestatemachine.com, after the Steelers win the Super Bowl.:)

 Maybe its just me, but the past few Planet E releases haven't been
 worth mentioning, since I'm not the target audience for exceedingly
 mediocre dance music. I would much rather here more Tribe tracks, than
 jona/buttrich/wackness that's been pressed lately.
