 Anyone make it to the after party ? I bumped into a few of them at KDJ on
 monday night and they said the after party ended on noon friday. Those
crazy
 kids...


They basically threw everyone out, then I realized I could've gone if I had
only stayed. Doh. Frankly, I'd had enough though. Magda and Clark Werner
were good as usual. It was a trip to be in Necto again too. It was the first
club I ever went to when they used to have teen night on Thursdays and the
pre-midnight progressive thing on Sundays. A friend told me Mills used to
spin there in that timeframe (around 87-88), although I would assume it was
not on one of those nights. Anyone know?

 Mills spun at the Nectarine Ballroom on Sundays from 86-88 i think.  I
 went there the first weekend of school in the summer of 87.  Got there AT
 9pm...and the joint was empty.  We were too young to know that the parties
 don't really start until 11.


I imagine the fact that if anyone was there it was a ton of 14 year olds
probably didn't help the vibe any [raises hand sheepishly]. ;) IIRC they
would boot all the minors out soon before midnight, and then the real fun
started (from which we youngins were excluded).

 They did NOT have kiddies (defined as being under 18).  They DID have kids
 (i.e. 18 year old college freshmen).

Hmm... I'm certain I was there on Thursdays when I was 14, and I'm pretty
damn sure they did this on Sunday's through midnight too. Maybe they only
opened it for kiddies on Sundays during the Summer or something??? Dunno.
Mostly I was just curious if my first clubbing experience might have been
Mills. I had a memory of some dude in a cowboy hat with crazy sideburns, but
that booth used to be fairly obscured, so I wasn't sure who was on when,
etc.

Re: (313) busted ?????

2003-05-28 Thread Phonopsia
I heard Friday night the Works was closed during Theo Parrish. I know that
the cop who busted the DC on Friday seemed to really have an agenda in doing
so. Not sure what that was all about. Hood got shut down 40 minutes into his
set Saturday as you said. I felt lucky to see all of Felton Howard though.
Cannonball had no troubles AFAIK. I was there 'til 8:30, and I didn't notice
anything anyway. Cops showed up at The Works on Monday and walked through,
but didn't do anything. Whew! Guess I made out OK. After being in England
for nine months, this was really bizarre for me. I know it's more tyranical
than usual, but it just seemed so completely unnecessary. Why why why???

Yeah. I had no idea about the body surfing, and only heard one passing
comment about Pearl Jam. I think the wayward youth confined themselves to
the main stage and the areas in between perhaps? Every year there's been
tons of kids that didn't seem musically concerned in the periphery and
non-musical center of the plaza. I spent almost all of my time on the High
Tech Soul and Movement stages, and both had a great vibe from where I was
sitting/standing. I spent very little time on the main stage and underground
this year, so that could possibly account for the different perceptions???

Re: (313) Stores, clubs etc in the DC/Baltimore area

2003-05-08 Thread Phonopsia
I've been trying to post this for a few days, but it won't go through, so
I'll post the bit that's relevant to your DC events query, since Sylvie
should've already received my answer to her Scott Henry question.

Not really any techno other than Filler and rare Once Twice stuff (and some
of the Metatrack/Metrotechno crew when they get booked). Lots of good Deep
House though. Look for these DJ's and nights: Darrow's (ex) weekly at Erico
Cafe was great, but if you can catch him anywhere, run don't walk, almost
any night at Red is good, the right DJ's at Marx Cafe, House of Secrets (if
you can get invited), the Blue Room and (until they took partial ownership
of '5') M3 were incredibly consistent - now they do some nice stuff with
some cack (IMO). Also look for Root on Tuesday's @ the Blue Room for a nice
downtempo/house and broken beat lineup. The Blue Room is the business.
Lara's Balto recommendations and general assessment is pretty right-on too.
There's also nights like Lemur Lounge in Alexandria which are run by good
peepz, but I only made it out that far once.

House DJ's to look for: Darrow, Omar Faison, Milo, Sam 'The Man' Burns,
Mandrill, Dj Oji, 95 North, Ivan and Carl, Groove District (John and
Julius - they have a Wednesday weekly @ 5 that is nice), also Brian
Stewart's Wednesday open turntable night @ the Blue Room is one of my
favorites.

Techno DJ's to look for (if you're lucky) constitute my old crew, but there
ain't a lot else techno-wise, so don't yell at me for pimpin' my peepz. ;)
http://www.metrotechno.net  and the previously mentioned Filler folks.

If you ask me, the closing of Yoshi is no great loss, but Pete's right that
they had some nice older CD's. The current selection (of CD's or vinyl) was
a bit weak IMO though.

 Yes, but we shouldn't be selfish, and hope for other labels to relay
the
 idea, because on a strictly business matter that's a fresh breath for the
 labels business looking at how the market is dead, the big decline of
 vinyl's sales..not to mention a new turning point in the
distribution,
 possibly the expansion of the music we love, before it definitive
 death.We need more consumers.

 what does 'the market is dead mean' ? i wouldn't have thought that any of
 the recent factors that have affected major record companies sales would
 apply to DJ oriented / underground / this-listy stuff ? is there really a
 big decline in vinyl sales?

Another guy with stuff on KDJ.

 Ayro?

Jeremy Ellis of OMOA Music. Helps with John Arnold, Recloose, Detroit
Experiment, has remixed Jazzanova. He is going to knock our socks off!!!

 Ben Bracken?

No clue.

 Peven Everett?

Of Angora and Gabrielle w/Roy Davis Jr. fame, has recently released a solo

Re: (313) Here we go....

I don't think this is a bad idea at all. Why not? The risk is minimal
compared to vinyl, it's a little extra money to help keep the label alive,
and there are some people (like Joe) for whom it is a better solution.

I agree the marketing of it is a bit silly, but so what? Most marketing is
silly. I just think it's sort of funny that they were once called CD 5's (or
Maxi-singles) in order to differentiate a CD single with multiple remixes
from the little 2 or 3CD singles (however big they were). CD 12 is an
improvement over the gynecological name of old, and CD 5 never really made
much sense since full-lengths were also 5s. For that matter, the term 12
as opposed to album doesn't make a lot of sense, so one more silly term
among many really doesn't bother me. In fact, I'd like to think of it as an
homage to the history of f*cked up recording format names. ;)

 If you don't like the tight production values that you can hear in MA (not
raw enough) all I can say is Morgan's productions have *always* had that
sharpness and precision, even on his old Metamorphic and Environ and Clear
records, when it was more techno than house.  His production values have
been consistently high throughout, and his ear for melody as well I think
few have it quite like that.


Ken, I was thinking this too. His solo stuff is definitely a lot grittier in
a Curtin/P.O.F.F. kinda way (or at least that's akin to one of his many
voices).

 There is plenty of raw house stuff out there too, it's just that (in my
experience) there's not a lot of it that shows the same kind of quality you
hear with Metro Area.  I am of course a huge fan of chicago jackin' trax,
love em!!!  but for me there's not a lot of raw or really unique house
coming out (of chicago right now anyway) that was the way it used to be.
New generations of producers aren't as constrained as the founders were, and
you get a lot of stuff made on computers and not a lot of 2nd and 3rd
generation house producers are selling their iMacs for RZ-1's, etc.  ;)


People have been claiming this'll be the next big revival for a while now
though. I haven't seen much evidence of that, but It does seem logical, as
these things go. Have either of you dirty-house boys heard the Chicken Lips
Trax Dub of Headman's 'It Rough'? Sounds circa '86, released '02. I've heard
Gene Farris and Joakim drop it at high volume so far. Both times it sounded
s big (but dirty, errr rough ;).

Ken, if you want something really dirty (like so poorly recorded it's hard
to mix), track down the Pepe Bradock remix of the Gotan Project (seems to be
very hard to find already though). It's got a mid-range acid line and an
almost non-kick, so it's basically all-mids. If it isn't dirty enough for
ya, I don't know what would be. Or maybe the accordian will throw you off.
;) In general, I don't see how you could go wrong with Monsieur Peepz. His
remix of Incognito even says something like recorded in a noisy Parisian
apartment (although ironically, that's probably the cleanest thing he's
done)...

Gotta say I'm not really seeing a cleanliness trend in house myself, or
maybe I'm misunderstanding what is menat by 'clean' and 'polite'??? I would
argue overall production value has been steadily climbing forever, but I
don't see that as the same thing, or bad.

(313) More Dirty House

2003-04-30 Thread Phonopsia
Also highly recommended are the two Kemit Sources EP's. Both harken back the
Kutis to my ear. The one on Versatile has a totally different I:Cube mix on
it too - which sounds really Detroit-y.

Also, the Herbert remixes of the Mighty Bop's 'Lady'. It's Herbert, do you
even need to hear it? ;) Also that remix he did of Karin Krog last year.

Norma Jean Bell - London Fog (OK, not that new)

Muziq - Half Crazy ( The Other Version / Limited New House Mix ) - make sure
to get this version for the really melodic dirty percussion

Glad Today - The Music Solstice - Debut (I think) from a Baltimore house
band!!! Really excellent stuff all over the map, lead by live trumpets and
vocals. The A-side has preacher sample, but the B-sides win again.

The Movers - Love Cosmic Spiritual (not sure how you'll feel about this one,
but I would call it dirty, and I bought it ;)

N'Dambi - Call Me (Limited Re-Edit) if you haven't got it yet, run don't
walk

New World Aquarium - Heavy Metal

That's a start for some less-than obvious stuff, and still not sure if this
quite meets the criteria.

I really liked the vocals but the lyrics to this one made me balk. I mean, I

a) we were great friends
b) we fooled around - oops!
c) now *you* are acting strange
d) i wish *you* would sort your sh*t out so we can go back to 'a'

Dunno. Something about the assignment of blame in this song rubs me the

getting down to it. I mean, I can totally relate, but only because I was
being a dick when I felt that way too. ;) Since hearing it on a dancefloor

 I'm not sure if I particularly g.a.f. abt the lyrical content! If we
 deconstructed all the lyrics of most of the tracks we are interested in
 here, we really wouldn't be left with much that is literary, noble or even
 coherent most of the time! The vibe is everything, for better or worse.
 Plus, I can make my own mistakes and learn from them myself, thanks,
without
 need of the wisdom of an R'n'B singer to teach me, albeit in beautiful
 dulcet tones!


Maybe it's time we started to expect more though? That 'glad today' record I
mentioned earlier has excellent romantic lyrics, and the Brooks album is
packed with them straight through (even if they're largely nonsensical, they
are great: see - dripping in gold). Dani Sicialano springs to mind too. I'll
be the first to admit that I'll let lyrics slide in house, but I don't know
exactly when we lowered our expectations. Lyrics used to be a big draw for
me before I got into house/techno, and they still are when I shop outside of
this. There have always been good political lyrics, and still are, like
Blackman, etc, but I'd like to see more insightful probings of emotions.
It's not like there's ever been a time when there wasn't some good lyrical
tracks in house, I just think people have more room to write crap if it
kicks.

(313) That Sloppy Ass Broken Beat Mix I Been Saying I'll Do

2003-04-25 Thread Phonopsia
Unfortunately, this mix didn't turn out like I'd hoped. It's kinda sloppy in
a couple of parts. Hopefully you don't think any of my mess is too
disastrous. I've never actually tried to mix an entire set of broken beat
stuff before. While I'm usually telling people it's not *that* hard to mix,
I was making that assessment based on including a few songs in a varied mix,
but to put together a whole set is an entirely different matter. It's really
difficult. I tried to work it out almost every night this week, but after
tonight's go, I decided I'd accomplished the introductory mission and I didn
't have the energy to try and perfect such a difficult mix (I almost always
abandon preconceived mixes). So I figured better to produce something rough
than nothing at all...

I'm not totally happy with the breadth of what I covered either, but I
really do love all the songs, so hopefully it will be enjoyable on that
merit if flawed in other respects. 14 tracks clocking in at 51 minutes (the
last track has mysteriously disappeared). Arghhh... Sorry Tom, your remix of
Scopex got snipped somehow (think I ran out of disk space while adding a
dash of maximization), and sorry folks for the abrupt ending. Doh! Anyway,

Don't miss this! I saw him, @ (topically enough) co-op last Fall and he
really tore it up. He and Domu are the only two DJ's I've seen really
cutting up a broken beat well. Seiji is probably the only other DJ of the

crazy! I wouldn't miss either. Plus you get Twonz! :)

  It's kinda sloppy in a couple of parts. Hopefully you

  actually tried to mix an entire set of broken beat stuff before.

 ha... no worries!  Such is the life of someone who chooses to mix this mad
style!  it's a cross to bear i hear ya  ;)   i feel like some of it does
work well for a fast cut-n-paste fashion, while others (esp. the stringy
ones) you can really ride and wring them out over some acapella beats.  But
to always take the safe transitions, intros and outtros is just too boring.


Yeah. I wouldn't have been happy with that at all, although the mix into NY
Boom wound up coming off like that b/c I just ran out... :/

 I have yet to hear a super-locked-down-tight mix of something with this
much differing percussion signatures and polyrhythmic breaks and disjointed
action going on...  and in the cases where I know the tracks being played, I
can often hear even the most experienced DJs taking a mixture of risks and
'safely mixes' (ha) the ambient or beatless break areas as places to 'take'
to the next new track, Orrin Walters included.  And there is a time for
both.  I'd say such is the way of the style, I mean it's BROKE-N !  anyone
who says they can lock a set super tight of this style isn't playing the
craziest stuff in the genre... which to me is the most interesting.  Not the
noodley, faux-jazz wonky stuff, (which i am fading fast on) but the real
experimental 'technosoul' side of it, like mustang, titonton, domu,
aardvarck(!difficult!), rednose, genre, numbian mindz, seiji, nu era, son of
scientist, moonstar, total science, etc.


This is both my experience of it clubbing, and my inclination musically. I
think most of the tracks on this mix reflect that sort of track selection
too. I especially wanted a lot of it to have a sting-y or tech-y edge and
wanted to get a lot of stripped-down stuff in there (for [313] appeal), even
if it wasn't all as minimal as some of those more recent Seiji remixes, like
his remix of Titonton which almost seems to be going too far in the other
direction towards a broken beat tracky-ness??? Weird. I mean there's nothing
wrong with it, but it kills the appeal that draws me to this stuff if it
isn't very lively.

 hats off for not pre-planning every mix out for the whole thing... that is
so BORING.  personally i can never do the same mix more than once or twice
max, life (behind 1200's) is too short and there's too much fun in riding
the randomness of it all, flipping it over and trying out that b-side you
never really gave proper attention to, experimentation, etc.


I must confess that the first few mixes are pretty well sequenced, but I'll
do that live often too. I look at it like planning out the first 10 plays of
a football game. It gives you a chance to read things and settle into
comfort before getting too distracted by an open slate. Also, I must confess
that typically when putting together a mix, I will work at it for a long
time until I'm perfectly happy with the track selection (since I think of it
as a mixtape more than a DJ mix still), and this is why I typically never
get a mix done, because I will never get happy with both the track selection
and the mixing, always shuffling things around for each take...

 BTW - Brian Gillespie has pulled off some pretty heroic broken beat
flavored DJ sets in detroit but he'll also tell ya the sh!t ain't easy and
frankly i think it is (and should be) mixed with other genres to really
stand out and create impact..


Hehe. That's why I was so surprised by trying to do this. I've always been
adding it into house and techno sets, which I think works really well as a
transition, or just some spice. I'll probably never try another all-broken
beat set again, unless I get booked for it or something.

 [Aaron Shin]'s on the hunt for the new white lables like Ted Nugent on
opening day of bowhunting season.  :P

ROFLMAO!

Anyway, thanks for all the reassuring comments. Was beginning to wonder if I
made the right decision.

Agh. Don't want to poop on anyone's parade, and sorry for chiming in late,
but be prepared for Fehlmann to be less-than inspired. When he played London
a couple of months ago it sounded like he played his kompakt records
track-for-track, no alteration, just slightly mixed with a touch of dubbing.
Love the music, but an inspired live set it was not. If you go in expecting

there wasn't any older stuff and it sounded so un-live. :/

 The Outlet Collective are doing a party at the Rhythm Factory on Fri 2nd
May
 with electro dons Rebel Intelligence.  Outlet are a group of talented DJs
 with very varied tastes, and I'd recommend them far ahead of UglyFunk,
which
 is very much k-head squat party type music.


I was trying not to single any crews out, but since it's been done for me...
I must say they're a great bunch and a brilliant collective of DJ's.
Multi-dimensional, skilled and knowledgable - each DJ, not just them as a
whole. I'm really excited for next week!

 Maybe that gig gives them the chance to be exposed to a different crowd. I
 mean if underground DJs don't play these kind of parties then someone will
 say, 'Look these superclubs only hire Paul Oakenfold and they ignore the
 'real' DJs'. It's one of those catch-22 situations.

Just for the record - the venue wasn't like a superclub or anything. Crash
is big, but not anywhere near the size of say... Heaven, where Lost was held
this weekend. I'm not certain about these numbers, but I think Crash holds
about 800, and Heaven holds well over 2000??? At any rate, those are in the
right ballpark. Crash is typically a gay club and it's located in Vauxhall,
south of the river, which isolates it a bit from the typical big-club-going
crowds. These are just some of the reasons why I was surprised when things
didn't work out. It wasn't really blanketed in signs of failure from my
perspective, which is also why I had that spastic reaction earlier. Sorry
again about that.

 They're fraternal Cosmic Twins not identical, you see, so because of that
 difference, they're not gonna play back to back ;)

 That's false advertising, you can't blame the DJs for that.

...although they did tagteam in Manchester two nights later.

At any rate, I was reluctant to blame *the promoter* at first, but I think
the false advertising has been established via this Overload thread:
http://www.overloadmedia.co.uk/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=4509highlight=

See also the original promotion from the promoter, in which the Cosmic Twins
are billed as 'Francois K + Derrick May' on the same line of text and the
promoter posts a picture of them DJing together later in the thread:
http://www.overloadmedia.co.uk/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=4334highlight=cosmic+t
wins

In my mind, *at best* (and a 'best' that has been stretched quite far), he
did nothing to correct the flawed assumptions that were evident on a board
that he pruports to participate on. I'll let y'all be the judge for
yourselves. The promoter is the Zudo fella. Sorry for the airing of dirty
laundry, just thought since there is speculation going on, you should see
the way the promoter handled it first-hand. In my mind, he knew everyone
thought they would be tagteaming, he encouraged that perception, and when
people complained afterwards he momentarilly tried to tell us we were being
too assumptive, then backtracked once he realized he'd trodden in it.

None that are regular that I can think of, but there are plenty of soulful
house nights (not necessarilly Detroit), and enough one-offs with Detroit
focus to keep you plenty happy. It does require some work to keep up with it
though. I highly recommend the Overload board for such activity. Many

Slow down. Hair-trigger acusations don't work well on email. You don't know

charitable, but to be honest I didn't do any research into that at all - it
didn't even cross my mind at the time I was shopping (online). I simply
listened to the Bugz track which I'd heard on Worldwide, checked the others,
and found it hard to justify a price in excess of £20 if that ££ could go to
three + other slabs of wax. Obviously it's a good cause. You're reading a
little too much into my ignorance.

That said, I could probably do more for the fight against AIDS in Africa by
buying this single (getting a longer and louder pressing) and donating the
remainding £14+ to charity. Does anyone have real figures on the amount
donated via this major-label charity effort? I'd be interested to know how
effective it is. I'm not trying to slate it, but honestly if I was feeling
compelled to support *this* charity, I doubt my first action would be to buy
an overpriced record that didn't sell me on its own merit.

 Cheers Tristan. I'd like to canvass opinion from anyone who cares to lend
me
 theirs on:

 What do you think broken beat is? Is it a passing phase?

 As for me, I admit to a broad stroke of ignorance. Save for the fact of
 hearing stuff which would now be called broken beat, maybe seven years
ago:
 Example: Buckfunk 3000 - The Return Of Alphonso - on Trance Europe Express
 vol 5. Also, some things which I currently like - e.g. Tempest by Kabuki
 (Head to toe) I was recently told would fall in the 'broken-beat'
category.

  Is broken beat what you want it to be?!

I find there's three main threads of it:

a) Goya Music, i.e. Dego + Marc Mac, (4 Hero, Nu Era, etc), Paul Dolby
(Seiji, Opaque, Bugz, etc), Alex Attias (Mustang, 1/2 of Plutonia with Dego,
etc), Dominic Staton (Domu and as recently informed 1/2 of Rima), Orin
Walters (Afronaught, Bugz, Quango, etc), Kaidi Tatham (Agent K + unsung
collaborator extraordinaire), Nubian Mindz (who are they again???), Enrico
I'm-forgetting-his-last-name doh (Volcov/ other 1/2 of Rima) and crap I'm
sure I'm missing a ton of others. But basically these guys almost all hail
from West London (notably not Enrico who is Italian) and their many guises
are generally on labels distributed by Goya Music. They also all collaborate
together making it all that much more confusing and they also have Co-op as
their home base on the 2nd and last Sunday of every month, at Plastic People
(in East London ;). This is definitely the heart of the scene IMHO.
http://www.goyamusic.com

b) Folks like Aardvark, Red Nose Distrikt, etc, then stuff like Emoticon and
some of Russ Gabriel's output. Other stuff I'm forgetting here too. Where do
I put Archive, is it Goya or no??? Anyway, what they do is definitely
different than the Goya stuff, although some of it I think points to the
same place.

c) Then you have some housier stuff (plus the Goya folks and Russ Gabriel do
housey stuff occasionally too). I feel like there's so much that can be
lumped in here that is often scarcely distinguishable from house or garage
that I steer clear of categorizing it as Broken Beat material, b/c people
are generally less confused that way - however, when you say broken beat,
this is what a lot of people will think, and they aren't really wrong.
Basically I try not to use the broken beat term so much unless it reminds me
of a and b above, b/c I think that's where it started although others did
stuff that sounds like broken beat long in the past. Gerd/Sensurreal really
spring to mind for me in that sense.

I know I missed a lot of people, but this is my general assessment.
Ultimately I think it's easier to classify than a lot of people want to
admit, but it's confounding because all the primary players make other stuff
than just broken beats.

If all this is confusing, then good! :) My mix will hopefully answer these
questions better than my rant.

As far as the future goes, that's a good question. They haven't stopped
pushing back boundaries yet. I think if they stagnate it will only be
temporary (although the pace of innovation certainly has slowed down some).

   deep burnt track is almost the coolest song ever.

 You should check out Theo's Ugly Edits 3...the B-side has the original
 sample from Deep Burnt in itlovely stuff!

Also two records on Soul Brother recently have featured versions of the
original, Freddie Hubbard's Little Sunflower. One is the Freddie Hubbard
Anthology - the Soul Jazz fusion Years (oddly enough ;) and the other is the
Soul Brother Selection. Both come highly recommended. I was a bit
dissapointed when someone here pointed out that it was a sample a while
back, but having heard two of the original versions now, I have to say it
was a really excellent job of spotting and grabbing it. Brilliant song in
its own right of course. I think I prefer the Leon Thomas vocal on the Soul
Brother Selection to the Al Jarreau vocal on the Freddie Hubbard Anthology,
but both are nice!

  He has some older markedly 'French house' (a totally meaningless term

 Try and track down Trankilou - Champagne if you can. One of my all-time
 favourite house tunes and probably the best track the French house
 movement produced IMO.


I always liked  Sauternes on the St. Glin-Glin EP (BPM Records) as well.
Agreed that this L'Escalope De Dingue EP is quite good too, but for some
reason the songs that I like the most have something in them that vexes me a
bit. Can't put my finger on it... For interested buyers, Vinyl Junkies and
Groovetech have it in stock.

Agreed. Also check his song on the first Neroli compilation 12. That one
reminds me a bit of Theo Parrish. That whole 12 is good though - can't go
wrong. I hear the Nubian Mindz contribution to the second Neroli compilation
is also good, but I've not got that one.

Nu Era-wise, you definitely need Broken Techno if you don't have it.

Further to this tip (and especially if you like the Aardvark-esque stuff),
you may wanna check Red Nose District and some of the stuff on Music for
Speakers. The Domu remixes of the first Red Nose 12 are sickening, and the
2nd 12 is pretty severe too.

Didn't know there was a Rima album due. Awesome! Will this be on Visions?

 yah I need to peep that too...the whole broken beat
 thing has been a hard sell for me just because I think
 it is an old idea, but now i can hear it's differences
 and it's more along the lines of house but fused with
 jazz and hip hop and drum and bass a little.

FYI - I think the Scattered Snares comp really reveals the drum 'n bassier
side of Broken Beats, with the notable exception of the Nubian Mindz track.
I really like the comp, but find it's different enough from anything else
that I own that I don't play it as much as I should.

 rima...hmm I'll have to check this out. thanks for the
 suggestions tristan and marsel!

IIRC Rima = the same fella who compiled Soul in Motion. He also has a track
as Nutmeg on Neroli that's really nice. I think it's called Oscar's Shed.
A slightly housier than normal beat for the the broken style. Good stuffs.

Oh - also, I plan on making a broken beat mix as sort of an overview for
people who might be trying to wrap their head around it. I don't claim to

If anyone has any requests for inclusion on it, let me know off-list and

 Got a brilliant record by Mr Trent and someone called
 Sundiata OM on Prescription called 'What are you doing
 with your life?' (at least I think that's the title).

 The instrumental track is really stunning...is this a
 new thing or an oldie?  Who is the other bloke? Anyone
 recommend other stuff by him?


Sundiatta O.M. is a percussionist (and vocalist I think) that recorded an
album with Ron Trent (and Chez Damier) for Prescription towards the end of
their initial run. It's a nice double-pack, I think, and sort of signalled
the direction Ron Trent would move towards from then on, especially as he
started collaborating with Anthony Nicholson thereafter. It was one of the
first really organic records he produced, IIRC.

Sundiatta also performed at one (or two???) of the DEMF's? I think he may
have been the drummer who played with Derrick May at the first one, and for
some reason I recall something related to the Lost Poets???

Lots of half-memories here. At any rate, that record is nice. :) Came out
around '97 I think. Derrick Carter featured the track with all the political
crap at the beginning of his disc of the three-disc Back to Basics tin. My
favorite Derrick Carter mix.

Right. Separate thing. The LP was well before the DEMF, but I'm pretty sure
it has Sundiata's vocals on it rather than Umar Bin Hassan.

 And Sundiatta was drumming even when Derrick spun bob azzam - batucada

 That´s like bringing your 909 on stage and playing the ride cymbal when a

Read: 'Someone please do my work for me'. This list isn't here so someone

Besides that, your request is being filled weekly by Matt in his 'Clinically

recommendation/week, if not more, and this show was solely responsible for
my introduction to Italo-disco. Watch/listen and learn about the past,
present and future. First step in that process is recognizing that you don't
already know everything.

 We have a list member promoting another list members label but a lot of
the
 new 313 music is not
 being discussed or mentioned.

Please tell us what you're so upset about!!! What are we neglecting to
mention that *you* know about? Why don't you include yourself in this forum
and contribute information about the artists you feel are neglected rather
than sitting on the sidelines, berating us for being cliquy? No one asked
you to join this list and bitch about how you don't fit. Either contribute
what you know or shut the f*ck up and take what's relevant to you.

 As for your list of records, from observing trend I get the impression of
a
 soulful electronica
 movement with people also having 80's dance music sensibility.
 I'm not a huge fan of this movement nor am I a fan of deep house sample
 based music.

You sound like you have no idea what you're talking about. Please spend more
of your energy talking about what you know than slagging me off. It will
make us both much happier.

 Honestly I think that more 313 record reviews on this list would be a
 good thing.  I don't get to buy many records, right now I don't even
 have a job, and I sub to this list mostly to hear about records I might
 be missing.  I'm not seeing as much of that as I used to here, and I do
 feel that there has been a shift away from a techno sensibility too.  I
 like deep house, broken beat, and italo-disco type things too sometimes,
 but that's not really the kind of content I'm here for.  So if any of
 you are buying things on the 313 related techno and electro tip, please
 share your finds.


Hi Dave,

The reason why I haven't posted many reviews of those records is for the
same reasons you list. I don't think they're specific enough to this list to
warrant a review. Those that I feel are topical I've mentioned. I know you
weren't speaking to me in specific, but thought I'd clarify, since I feel
the same way. Honestly I would love to see more talk about new Detroit
Techno, but I don't think there's a whole lot of it that's worth talking
about at the moment. I'm spending more money on hip hop than techno right
now. I could post loads of house reviews, and I intend to review some of the
more [313]-relevant stuff, but I just haven't had the time. Soon.

 Yes, I didn't mean to big up London as if it was unique in having
eclectic  DJs.  I was just speaking from my very limited experiences.
 It just seems a pity that these kind of DJs don't seem to become name
DJs - the big DJs that do genre-mixing or whatever the hell you want to call
it  usually make a name for themselves as specialist DJs and then branch out
when they can rely on their name only to fill a club, or, rarely, like FK,
they have a regular club where they slowly but surely build up a following
until it becomes international rather than just local.


I think it's more that there are very few DJs that get national or
international noteriety w/o record releases to back up their DJ skill. It's
been this way for a long time, and probably will continue to be, since
records get your name to the people and promoters that much easier - they
also generate hype and expectation. I'm not gonna try and grind this axe too
hard though, b/c I've probably beat this horse a bit too severely already.

 In order for something like this to work someone who is familiar with all
 the new records
 being released from Detroit labels and what the distributors are shipping
 should post this info
 and not only the 313 label/ artist they like.

Someone should slap me for responding, but this really erks me. There is no
magical 'distribution sheet' of music as discussed on this list. Yes, some
people who work at record stores will see stock lists from distributors, but
that's essentially no different than visiting stock lists from all your
favorite stores. In fact, it's even less effective because there's so much
more to sift through before you get to what you want. There are a couple of
reasons why no one posts all the new [313] releases:

a) the music discussed here is very broad. no one has a manual to what is or
is not topical - it just takes common sense and some familiarity with the
subject matter.

b) that information is already easy to find. this is not a network to
consolidate distributor stock sheets. the purpose of this list is to refine
that data and to provide aesthetic commentary, etc.

If you want to see some publicly available stock sheets, subscribe to the
'new release' and 'back in stock' emails from groovetech, juno and rush hour
for a start, then ask questions about those releases here if they don't mean
anything to you. I'm sure there are other distributors and large stores with
good lists. I seem to remember Watts used to have one.

It's really annoying that you persistently berate this list and charge it
with elitism, then argue that there's no good music coming out today.  That
is the result of lazy research and closed-mindedness. There is tons of
amazing music coming out at present. I've bought about 60 records in the

(313) Responsibility v. Courtesy

2003-04-12 Thread Phonopsia
J.T.

Apologies if this makes little sense, I'm a bit drunk. I fully agree with
all that you said, and I only meant my 'a tad irresponsible' comment in
regards to Moodymann particularly... in the sense that *his* bootlegs sell
for such obscene amounts, and this is known so widely, and almost everything
he's put out sells out, and so many people have bitched about the difficulty
of getting his records before they sell out. While I totally agree this is
in no way a reason to bootleg, and I totally agree that anyone who *really*
wanted these records could have found a way to get the originals while they
were in stores (except maybe Jeff who was on a boat ;), it seemed like an
odd time to release strictly limited editions of music that is *so* in
demand while that limitedness is clearly pissing so many people off. By 'a
tad irresponsible' I just meant that a label should listen to their loyal
audience, and the choice of that word in particular was overstated, and
indeed a bit... irresponsible. ;)

Again, I totally agree that a label is fully entitled to release as many
copies as they want, but when we see things like the BOC record that goes
for $500 and Moodymann records for $100 soon after release, you know it's
time to press a few more copies - not that a label would have to, or even
that they should, but it would be courteous, b/c risk is so small and it
makes fans happy. To retract: I definitely should have said
'IMHO-discourteous', rather than 'irresponsible'. :) And I'm not trying to
tell anyone how to run their shop, I just intended to mention a
record-buying frustration that I feel is not entirely invalid.

And just to reiterate, I think the thing that pisses me off the most is that
given all of this, KDJ *may* have fully intended to do a repress (and it
seems likely given the speed with which they hit stores post-bootleg), but
he didn't even get the chance to do the re-release on his own terms b/c the
thieves shortcutted that process.

Re: (313) artists vs. bootlegging

2003-04-11 Thread Phonopsia
Sorry to chime in so late. Have to say I'm feeling Matt. The one thing I
would add is that even though I think it's a tad irresponsible to release
records like these in limited numbers when we all know what the Ebay/GEMM
markets are like, that still does not compell me to side with the
bootleggers, because that's a preference and a pragmatic footnote to what is
ultimately a moral (or artistic) issue - and if you don't buy that, it seems
to me it's at least a good enough reason to want to kick someone's ass,
whereas the idea of someone wanting to kick KDJ's ass for putting out too
few records is absurd.

  the bootleggers would have a lot less market if the record were
repressed

 I can't disagree with that logic.  BUT... I've been following this thread
for awhile and a voice I'm not hearing in this debate (that is kind of
troubling to me, actually) is the rights of the ARTIST.  Art is not
necessarily subject to the same demands as say, any old consumer product
where the goal is to sell as many as possible (say, toothpaste or
something).  One of the benefits of owning and running your own label (or
printshop, for example) is to control the trickle - or flood - of your art
into an art-buyers market -- more control over your own destiny.  You can
still keep things limited or special if, as the artist, you feel like that
is a part of your 'statement' so to speak, of what you have created.

 When a famous potter makes a vase, and they decide to make 5 of them, not
500... it makes that vase unique.  You have to think the artist has a reason
to only make 5 if that's what they choose.

 Is everyone forgetting that the artist has a right to release as many or
as few pieces of art as they feel?   Sure there are ramifications of
releasing few, I'm not denying that:  if demand is high enough and the art
is scarce, it may get bootlegged.  That is a risk.

 But an artist of any medium is certainly never OBLIGED to fill the needs
of every consumer!  That is the artists right.  I have detected this slight
tone of well if he just would have pressed up more it wouldn't matter, he
deserved it, etc. -- but the reality is sometimes an artist might want LESS
of something out there, not more, as part of the artistic statement itself.
I respect artists who choose to release less, not more... even if I can't
have a copy myself.  But that doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to bootleg
it (and profit from it) if I can't find my copy.

 peace,
 Matt

 about the boot legging of the Set Up 707 record that Edge of Motion put

 on DJAX.  I know DJAX had a limited press run that was put on clear vinyl.
 Probaby around 1,000 copies.  DJAX never pressed another copy of it...yet
I
 remember Record Time getting two very large shipments of this in on black
 white label vinyl.  And I remember all my frineds being so happy that it
was
 bootlegged so they could finally have a copy.  I bought 2 copies of it...I
 sold one on eBay last year for $20.  How evil does that make me??


Yeah, but you could've bought the Moodymann records when they came out, no?
They didn't sell out *that* quickly. I got my copy of the 1st one at least
two months after it was released, and the release was hyped plenty to know
it would be coming.

I wonder how this will effect the Peacefrog releases??? Has anyone heard?
Were any actually released yet?

 favourite record stores have a special bootleg section, categorized by the
 different bootleg series.
 bootlegs are an important part of my record collection and any set i play.


I think the difference is that with few exceptions, those records will not
see a re-press, whereas with the UGE/Mohogany issue at-hand, the
artist/label never even got a chance to repress them before the boots hit
the street. If this is taken to its logical conclusion, artists will be
forced to press up huge quantities of every record they want to release on
the *assumption* that those records will sell quickly - and they will need
to do it out of their own pocket (and I think this is just one of many bad
consequences of a speedy bootleg).

 speaking of jazz...

Yes you should! :)

 anyways, it's absolutely beautiful house/jazz that sounds even a bit like
 fela kuti it is so buoyant and beautiful and catchy and a...deep. live
 sax, flute, and guitar -- but i don't think it's quite as noodly and
 laidback as russ' recent mostly live album on out of the loop (or is it?
 toe? were there any songs as good on there?) it's just not to be missed.
 only the 1 track and a pretty similar remix on the 12, but it is very
worth
 it!...i'm not really a jazz dowg myself so seriously...don't sleep! soul
on
 wax returns!

Yeah. 2nd'd, 3rd'd and 4th'd. The album is just as good though. If it
doesn't catch you at first, keep trying. Just about everything he's done
since 2000 has been pretty stunning in my book. Here's a list of most of his
recent output (other than Spirit of Corea and the album), all of which I
can't recommend any higher, except the Wilkommen EP which I rate the highest
of all these, but not by much over these two most recent ones.

Subject: Re: (313) Deadbeat?


  Was it that Deadbeat thing at the weekend?

 It was All Tomorrow's Parties, wasn't it? Deadbeat was a few weeks back...

Just back from ATP and barely conscious. A good time was definitely had by
one and all.

Carl Craig was good, but as with the last time I saw him, and on The
Workout, I wish he would mix more aggressively. My favorite sets from him
are always more active.

Shake's set was not his finest - seemed to be having an off night, although
he and the crowd both seemed to enjoy it quite a bit despite the mixing
troubles. It got much better as it went on, but the first 1/2 of the set was
pretty messy. We all have these nights though...

  b) 'Drexciyan DJ Stingray'?!

Drexciyan DJ Stingray was tight, but hearing tracks like M4 and M5 played at
45 ruins them for me. The whole set was really really ghetto tech fast, but
slowed a bit towards the end. It was a bit too much for me after 2 and a
half days of non-stop movement and throbbing bass. Needless to say, Venetian
Snares after him were equally lethal. I lasted about 10 minutes of their set
before running in fear, clinging for sanity.

However... there were tons of AMAZING moments throughout. I'll try to recap
in order (and what I remember - thank goodness for this little line-up
card):

Friday


The Fall were really good. Never seen them live. Not a ton for me to say
really. Just good rock 'n roll.

Public Enemy was fantastic. Haven't lost a step, and *everyone* was getting
down. You could tell they were having a great time, and it was really
infectious.

Guy Called Gerald and C2 - remember liking both a lot and dancing a ton, but
can't recall any specifics really. I think Gerald played a lot of house, but
my memory is quite sketchy at this point.

Missed Baby Ford and Gescom- ran out of steam around 3:00 after being up
since 7:30. Will see Baby Ford on Wednesday and Gescom on Saturday though,
so no urgency.

Saturday (AKA the day when darkness reigned and time lost meaning)
==

Note: the venue upstairs was nearly pitch black in the middle of the day.
This was severely disorienting. Recall finding out it was 7:30 pm, thinking
it was 2:00 am...

Checked Disjecta for about 15 minutes (he = Mark Clifford, once of Seefeel).
He was basically just improvising on a guitar with crazy effects. It was
really cool, but did my head in a bit after about 15 minutes.

El-P and Murs - damn fine rather political hip hop. El-P had a nice 15
minute turntablism intro as well. Good stuff!

Kool Keith and Kutmaster Kurt - really, really dissapointing. Utter crap.
What has happened to Dr. Doom???

Bola (apparently didn't show) but the visuals while they played some of his
music (I think) were mind-blowing. Someone else may be able to fill in gaps
about this.

[things get very very blurry]

Aphex Twin - WOW!!! Played about an hour of
110bpmish-techno-industrial-signature-aphex-god-knows-what that sounded like
nothing I've ever heard before. I believe most of this was live. Concluded
with an hour of drum 'n bass - lots of ragga included. Wicked.

Skam DJs. Lots of fun. Degraded into making out with some woman on the
dancefloor. VERY obnoxious. Apologies to anyone who witnessed.

In bed at a healthy 7:30am.

Sunday
=

Arrive about 1/2-way through Stasis. Playing nice house rather poorly.
Strictly Kev is a no-show (or maybe showed up about 10 minutes b4 the end of
his set???) Stasis played lots of hip hop. Never heard so much 'Stakes is
High' in one weekend. This is good.

Checked Jim O'Rourke for about 15 minutes. Nice pure ambience (i.e. no
discernable beat). Not suiting my mood. Head back for more
Stasis/Kev/Whatever.

Graham Massey - appears on stage with enormous
wire-lantern-bulbous-head-thing. I leave immediately.

Coil (probably my most anticipated show) - really long set-up process (like
45 minutes). Really weird experimental vocally stuff with 3 Nords?!? Cool
stuff. Not right for the moment. Run downstaris for...

LFO (Mark Bell) DJ set. Had no idea what to expect from this. It probably
wound up as my favorite set of the festival. Tons of techno classics mixed
absolutely flawlessly (using Traktor + 1 CD player it looked like). I
suspect he was cueing up two instances of the same track in Traktor and
rocking doubles with it. Was really really effective. His mixing was
seriously amazing. He finished with what were surely three new LFO tracks -
and I can promise you, the wait has been worth it. He's gone off the IDM
deep-end, but the result is pretty stunning, and really complex. I can't
wait.

Shake's set previosly mentioned.

G-Man: played for about 20 minutes of his live set and some assbag pulled
the fire alarm (or maybe it was a real fire???) - no one seemed to know for
sure. Retreated to chalet.

Returned just in time for the beginning of Mark Broom. I danced non-stop.

 Hi,
 these are two of my latest buys and recommendations:

 Drugs vs. ChateauFlight - Brain no Drugs - kraked001
 i have never heard of these guys nor the label (duh! its their first
 release!!!) but i bought them after reading the hardwax mailout. The sound
 is very deep and funky in a 70s blaxploitation vein, but also very
 psychedelic with strange and distrorted vocal samples going on about drugs
 and pharmaceutical companies. I listen to it everyday when i get home from
 work. The remix is on one side, with the orginal, more acoustic but trippy
 nonetheless version on the other side along with another mix. It says it
is
 recorded in Woodstock and remixed in Paris and features a guy called
Glongo
 Ceirten.

Thanks for the recommendations Fab! Both sound good. Not sure if you don't
know Brain no Drugs or Chateau Flight, but if you don't know the latter,
it's Gilb'r and I:Cube from Versatile Records in Paris. Excellent producers.
No idea about the former though. :/

For the Londoners, Gilb'r and Joakim (Tigersushi/Versatile) are both playing
at 93 Feet East tonight for the monthly London Xpress party. Simon Haggis is
upstairs too. See ya there. :)

 The reason I like Groovetech though, is that if they don't have
 something in stock, this fact is accurately reflected on their web
 page.  I have yet to find another online record mail order house that
 has ever completely filled one of my orders, besides Groovetech.  They
 also fill the orders faster than other companies that I have ordered
 from.

I agree that Groovetech has great accuracy with their order-filling, but
they are not the only ones, and they certainly do not stock enough to keep
me happy on their own. In my buying spree this month I bought 50 records. 31
were from Vinyl Junkies, 8 from Groovetech, 5 from Rush Hour and 6 from
Piccadilly Records in Manchester, who have just launched their website (a
really great store BTW). All of my orders were filled 100% from each of
these stores (and of all of my orders from all of these stores *ever*, Vinyl
Junkies is the only one who has missed anything, and they've only missed 1
record of at least 100 so far). All are great stores if you are satisfied to
split your orders among many stores. If not, just go to Vinyl Junkies, b/c
they are the best store for new house music, with Rush Hour running a close
second due to shipping fees. ;) Oh, Paul from Inner City seems to make lots
of people really happy too - not too mention all the Scottish stores...

For the record, I haven't ordered anything from Clone ever, but it's not
really my cup of tea. However, I totally agree with their ideology that
smaller stores probably need your currency more than Groovetech, and I try
to support accordingly. I don't agree that Groovetech should be boycotted
because of one anecdote of bad bill-paying. Frankly, the world of music if
far too complex to take these single examples to heart. If I heard of
multiple labels or distributors getting shafted by them, I might avoid them
entirely, but one or two emails on [313] about it really doesn't do a lot to
presuade me one way or the other. It just prepares me for a public rebuke
which may or may not come, and smells more of dirty-laundry-airing than
politically motivated excitation. Until I'm persuaded I shouldn't, I'll keep
filling holes in my orders with Groovetech shipments.

Also, in the states I think they are the best distributor hands-down, and
the shipping savings they offer are very compelling. When I was there, I
used them as my first stop.
