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?

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).

Re: (313) busted ?????
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???

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.

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

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. ;) Tristan === Text/Mixes: http://www.phonopsia.co.uk Music: http://www.mp313.com Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

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
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.

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
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!

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. 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.

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.

I knew some of the previous Red, Hot + [...] were 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'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).

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!

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.

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.

(313) Responsibility v. Courtesy
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
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.

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

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.

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.

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.

I've always loved 'Terraforming' from The Collective 2x12, also 'And All That Remains', but I don't claim to be an expert on the matter. I discovered them a bit late in life. Tristan === Text/Mixes: http://www.phonopsia.co.uk Music: http://www.mp313.com Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(313) OT: Movement Hotel Tip
In a 1/2-deluded state this morning I took a gamble on that Priceline email that wound up in my inbox and got a room from Sat-Tues @ the Omni Detroit River Palace for $64/night. It's that funny lookin' brown bulding sorta next to the Ren Cen. Not as good as the $45/night deals from a couple of years ago which are sure to never emege again, but it seems OK to me. Obviously there's no gaurantee you'll get the same deal, and you might want to remember to book for the Friday too (Doh!) but thought I'd pass along the tip. Probably a Priceline-only offer.

That track is amazing! always manages bring a tear to the eye each time i hear it, such a beautiful track. Is this the one with the trumpet? If so, it looks like maybe I'm not doing so bad after all.
