(313) Would love to go to N.Y.
So, i think about paying a visit to N.Y. this summer (or anytime actually). Is anyone in touch with bookers over there? Love to get a few bookings to cover the costs... Any ideas whom i could talk to? Sincerly, Ronny (that Acid-House, Traktorized, N.I. demomixes, _rohformat guy...) http://www.ronnypries.de

Re: (313) Richie Hawtin's Traktor setup
It's an act of balancing, really. -- within this context, I don't think that things benefit from micro-loop sampling, or production decisions made with DJing in mind. DJ sets just don't seem to be the series of little trips that they used to be. maybe I'm just used to it all. - Original Message - From: Kowalsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [313] 313@hyperreal.org Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2008 9:55 PM Subject: Re: (313) Richie Hawtin's Traktor setup Certainly, there's a way out of this so called BS.

His set was pretty tasteless, flavourless. My impression was just like that: a bunch of loops scrambled over and over, with a crescendo to make the crowd scream from time to time. It seems that a lot of djs, or producers, are showing up in the stage the capabilities of digital blending, the knob thrill just for the sake of it. Well, techno always had a thing about the process, not focusing on a begining or an end, but this tasteless knob thrill usually turns into a kid play, something like i'm having fun playing with my lego blocks, aren't you?. Well, it's not really that fun just watch someone else playing lego, cause there's no space for you to get in – the expression of the music was suposed to do that, bring the people into the playing.

I think I can only take so much technological advancement at a time. Then I kind of withdraw, hoping to hear some actual music. Perhaps something which completes rather than loops over another loop or even four fragments looped at the same time. The day when these genuinely impressive techniques add up to something equally as genuinely impressive coming out of the speakers will be the day when many luddites just using one laptop [ha, I'm not even going to mention the pre-historic relics, like me, who use that black plastic stuff!) won't be allowed to DJ anymore due to being seen as a comedy act. Till then - and it could happen soon: perhaps 3 years? - I think there are few more gigs to come. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 05, 2008 12:39 PM To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: RE: (313) Richie Hawtin's Traktor setup Although i have different midi controllers it's the way i'm playing as well and exactly due to the same reasons. --- Interesting little video: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6n4cy_richie-hawtin-traktor-setup_musi c m

AW: (313) better hop on those netlabel downloads
I think there's quite a bit of misinformation going on there. As far as i know Thinner wasn't contacted nor warned by the GEMA. Sebastian was aware of these circumstances and due to the recent GEMA developments on the digital domain he doesn't want to take any risks. It's currently not the situation that the GEMA is hunting netlabels in order to shoot them down. I doubt they'll ever have the internal capacities to handle it like this. If you were member of the GEMA for many years with several requests such as i had, you know that the left hand doesn't know what the right hand's up to there. Netlabel owners have to watch out and prepare themselves. Clear the situation between you and your artists. Now for the important part. IF YOU'RE GEMA MEMBER AND NETLABEL ARTIST THERE'S SOMETHING YOU CAN DO TO IMPROVE THE SITUATION IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR TRACKS ONLINE. You can restrict your membership contract by limiting it to physically reproduced media only. This means that only hard media will be taken into credit by the GEMA. I was about to limit my contract this way in correspondence with GEMA authorities but decided to quit anyway. Last not least i think we as Artists and netlabel owners should RISE AND PROTEST. It can't be that we have to suffer under an ancient system that keeps looking backwards. I believe that every artist should have the right to decide how his copyrights are being handled and i regard the situation as is as inacceptable. Join the chant. Ronny This just dropped into my inbox from the netaudio group, directed to netlabel owners: snip = The German Institution GEMA www.gema.de (German equivalent to RIAA) will NOT allow GEMA Acts on Netlabels for free, because they will bill your DOWNLOADS (12,5 european Cent per Download) for their protecting rights, because these Acts are members of the GEMA organisation. To all Netlabels of Switzerland: ask your SUISA Organisation, if you have the rights to offer downloadiong tracks of SUISA members. I think, they have similar rules like the German Organisation GEMA.

[_rf043] ronin - the flight of birds [-wyhiwywhat?---] _rohformat043 ronin - the flight of birds (12 tracks) releasedate 07/24/2006 http://www.rohformat.de [-release_information---] amsterdams ronin, known from various releases on djax up and kazumi, imaginarily joins the kings of the skies on their way. his 'flight of birds' is a routemap to detroit rooted techno and some of its facets. starting on a 'zondag' with a pushing approach towards dubtechno, climbing 'this way up' on the groovey tip, heading over the minimal and harsh landscapes of 'ferox'. you definitely haven't seen 'all there is' yet before getting to know 'umeks friend', a 100% stomping monotonist. 'what we don't know' 'iona' could teach about the deep, 'tough one'. while the weather is getting cloudy, 'tunnelvision' has the drive for finding a place to 'walk this way', sterac style. it is uncertain 'what's happening' inside a birds mind when it finally reaches its destination after a long and exhausting journey to that warm and beautfiul place. one thing for sure, 'the flight of birds' never stops. it's 'zondag' again... [-further_information---] _rf043 is not only the first full scaled 12 track album, it's also the first _rohformat release including 600 dpi cd artwork. for the sake of improving audio quality we'll stick we'll stick to lame 3.97.b2 using vbr-new at q1 until further notice. if you're a firefox user, don't miss its downloadthemall! extension for easier downloading of multiple files at once. http://www.downthemall.net [-see_you_soon--]

(313) Synthnews! AudioRealism releases Bass Line Pro
Hi guys, a bit of spam on my behalf this time. We have released our new synthesizer, Bass Line Pro as OsX AU and PC VST last night. It's basicly a semi modular synthesizer with step sequencer, few are referring to it as 303 mod already but it's definitely way more than that. I'd personally describe its featureset as sort ofArp Ms-303, however it's not meant to emulate anything . I think Mr. Gianelli will dig this one :D (if you're into software synthesis at all).
