Re: (313) Recordstores NYC
My favorite shop for new music is Halcyon, in Dumbo (Brooklyn): halcyonline.com A1 is great for used Disco and Hip-Hop, as is The Sound Library on Ave A. There's a new, smaller shop on East 2nd street b/w Ave A B (or maybe B C?) that had a decent selection of used disco, house and reggae. I can't recall the name offhand... I'd also suggest Academy Records in Williamsburg (somewhere around N6th street and Berry St.) they have a nice diverse selection of stuff, though mostly used. Vinyl Market keeps somewhat irregular hours, as it's only employee is the owner, Kazu. Turntable Lab is good, though small. I haven't hit Dope Jams, as it's inconveniently located for me. As for Syntax: John D is not the owner, he's the Domestic Buyer. Mike M and Stas are/were the owners. I'm going there tomorrow to pick up some of their stock so I'll see what's up. They still have lots of stuff, they've just stopped buying new music and are liquidating their backstock. Unique also apparently closed up shop, but I haven't heard any details yet.

Hello 313 People, For those of you in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, I'm DJing as part of the Getty's Fridays on the 405 event. Come by, if you can bear the traffic, and help me put a face to a name. Maybe I can make the body attached to that face dance a bit, too. Here are the details: Friday March 16th 6pm-9pm 1200 Getty Center Drive http://www.getty.edu/visit/events/fridays_405_031607.html My buddy Jon Mendez - a.k.a. Jasper - will be playing with me. He used to record on Force Inc and ran his own pre-trend minimal techno label, Cytrax. He's an incredible DJ, so it should be a good time. Jon and I are not tall, so we never have a problem seeing eye-to-eye. ;) I'll also be playing Saturday Night at the Avalon Bar in Costa Mesa. If you can't make it to the Getty stop by there.

(313) robotnik dj style?
Everybody, Try not to get too mixed up about a statement like that. It's not uncommon for people in some European countries, like Italy and Germany, to refer to a particular style of music as Black music. Whatever kind of music that is is a very loose genre, but it usually refers to Hip-Hop, Soul, Funk, etc. If Robotnick says he doesn't like playing Black music, it probably means he doesn't like Sister Sledge and We Are Family or 50 Cent. He's not a racist, or proably saying anything racist. He's just a 55 year old man from the kind of not racially sensitive country that would define a musical genre as Black. I've spent a reasonable amount of tiume with the guy and I can tell you with some certainty that he is not some kind of kooky White Supramatist. He's a very sweet, nice guy who is very opinionated about Espresso. He also doesn't speak very good English. As for his live set: it does both of what you would want. He plays new electro/techno stuff as well as performs a few of hits live. Usually, he plays Dance Boy Dance, Problems..., and one or two others.

Re: (313) robotnik dj style?
I think my point was a bit overlooked. I think the problem everyone has is that in Europe people have a genre they call Black music. Try replacing Black music with Polka and see if what you think Robotnick was trying to say seems as offensive. I'm not a particularly big fan of RB, so if I said RB has not influenced my music in anyway it would not be offensive, it would be a matter of personal taste. But what if the name for RB where I was from is Black instead of RB? Now, I think refering to all music made by African-Americans as Black music is insensitive, but you would need to change the racial outlook of millions of Middle-aged Europeans, first. I also was snot privy to the original conversation that started this thread, so maybe I'm over-simplifying it. It's just my 2¢. e Probably not to be honest.

Anyone can throw together a techno track or a dance music set, what makes this different.

(313) Freefloats and feedback.
They were using those Orange cushion things at the Movement Festival, and in my opinion they didn't seem to work too well. They still make the decks bob up and down, like you are at sea. What I would recommend is to go buy those foam pads that go under monitor speakers and use those. They work far better at reducing unwanted vibrations. Still, your decks will be raised up about 4 inches, so be prepared for that. e Incidentally for the gig I just mentioned in a previous post I've purchased a pair of those Freefloat things (bright orange, weirdly shaped inflatable cushions you put your decks on) in an attempt to reduce feedback which seems to the limiting factor with our set up at the venue we're playing. Does anyone know if they work for this purpose? The makers reckon you should be able to turn your system up 20 - 30 dB more (so I guess they must provide 20 - 30 dBrw?). What other measures do people find effective to combat feedback (foam vs. inner tubes vs. paving slabs vs. water vs. combinations vs. something I haven't heard of etc.) and what does anyone know about the phenomenon? I've heard that Technics 1200s/1210s may be particularly susceptible to vibrating at a frequency which I've heard quoted as both round 60Hz and 40Hz. Francis

(313) RECORDING INDUSTRY SLASHED CD LABELS, RAISED PRICES DURING PERIOD IN
RECORDING INDUSTRY SLASHED CD LABELS, RAISED PRICES DURING PERIOD IN DISPUTE http://www.soundandvisionmag.com/article.asp?section_id=2article_id=453 JAMES K. WILLCOX - While few dispute the [RIAA] numbers, some, such as George Ziemann, are challenging the RIAA's inferences from them. Ziemann, an Arizona-based musician and owner of Macwizards, a music production company, was propelled into the debate when he wasn't able to sell his band's CDs via online auctions on sites such as eBay, Amazon, and Yahoo because they were burned on recordable CD-Rs. . . As a result of that experience, Ziemann researched the RIAA's figures and came to very different conclusions, released in a much-circulated article, The RIAA's Statistics Don't Add Up, posted on his Web site (azoz.com). He makes two key assertions: 1) that the labels raised CD prices during a down economy, and 2) that they slashed the number of new releases by almost 25% during the past three years. He says that these factors, and not downloading, are responsible for sluggish CD sales. To arrive at the first conclusion, Ziemann took the RIAA's numbers for the retail value of CDs sold and divided it by the units shipped to determine an average CD price. He found that prices have steadily increased, from an average of $12.05 in 1990 to $14.23 in 2001. Although the numbers for 2002 weren't available when Ziemann did his analysis, using the same formula we determined that the average CD price reached $14.99 in 2002. But when you exclude the promotionally priced CDs sold through record clubs or non-music stores like Starbucks and the Gap, the average price rose from $14.31 in 1998 to $17.09 in 2002. . . In Ziemann's assessment, the combination of fewer releases and higher prices - not free downloads - caused sales to slump. His argument is bolstered by Josh Bernoff, an analyst at Forrester Research, who pointed out in a report issued last August that this isn't the first time booming CD sales have plunged. For instance, during the recession in 1991 - long before anyone even knew what a download was - CD sales growth fell from 15% to 4%. When you consider that the annual rise in the country's gross domestic product slowed by 36% from 1999 to 2002 and that the SP 500 dropped an equally depressing 28.78% during the same period, the recent 9% decline in sales doesn't seem so dramatic - particularly for a format that's been around for 20 years.
