2013-10-17 Thread Samuel Karmel
Hi peepz

of italo nightclubs
from back in the day..there where photos of one that looked like a space
ship etc.
any idea of what the website was?
really want to track it down again and having no luck so far.

I don't think there would be anything wrong at all if people moved to
Detroit to do art, or urban farming or whatever.  Places where people
can live cheaply and have room to work are essential for the creation
of new art.

I don't think 'ruin porn' is very useful if that's all it is.  But if
you spend any time in Detroit, the ruination is pretty inescapable. To
me it feels less like ruins and more like fallow land, as though all
it's waiting for is the right spark.

Beyond both these ideas -- Detroit as lurid icon of urban decay, and
as unrealized potential -- there's something that the rest of the
world tends to ignore, which is that Detroit has real people living
there across the whole spectrum of human experience -- the desparate,
the scary, the hopeful, the evil and the good.  And somehow every
'good' thing that comes to Detroit doesn't really reach down to help
the poorest of the poor.

Re: (313) OT: Nice article about the current state of journalism about the D

2009-11-26 Thread Arturo Lopez
Yea don't get me wrong, I'm all about people coming into communities
and trying to make a difference, provided they are actually trying to
contribute.

As far as the squat scene, I have no idea. I've see it a bit here and
there in Chicago (artist kids illegally living in storefronts). I do
know that regular people end up doing most of the leg work in the U.S.
for this kind of thing before officials catch on or are convinced to
help.  Occasionally developers will give rental discounts to people in
the arts when they are trying to build up 'artist neighborhoods' to
drive up business, and eventually housing prices. It's a mixture of
things happening organically, and then business/political interests
becoming involved in order to profit.  Neighborhood 'cycles' are a
fascinating subject, though, and unfortunately what is considered
blighted or bad more often than not is just replaced with white and
expensive.  Gentrification is happening pretty fast in many U.S.
cities, with things headed more towards a Paris-style model of the
wealthy living inside the city and the poor pushed to the outlaying
city suburbs.  It's happening -extremely- fast in D.C., and many
Chicago neighborhoods are becoming barely recognizable from 5-10 years
ago.  Very OT but it's an exciting subject.

(313) OT: skinny puppy on beatport

2009-10-27 Thread Frank Glazer
Today Beatport posted what I can only imagine will be the first in a
series of Skinny Puppy digital re-releases.  The singles that have
been posted so far are Censor, Dig It, Chainsaw, Testure, and
Addiction.  I originally bought my first Skinny Puppy tracks on
cassette tape.  That is all.

(313) OT Fu5k The BNP

2009-10-21 Thread Martin Dust

Bit off topic and only for UK peoples, but this is kinda important.

From the Hope Not Hate campaign.

Despite widespread opposition Nick Griffin will be on Question Time  
this Thursday.


The BBC have made their decision - they are willing to let a leader of  
a fascist Party on their flagship show. Last week the BNP agreed to  
change its constitution for fear of being found guilty of having a  
racist and illegal membership policy. On Sunday, Griffin attacked and  
abused his fellow panelists Bonnie Greer and Baroness Warsi for not  
being white. And yet the BBC still allow him on. Griffin's presence is  
a stain on the BBC.


So I think we need to make a stand.

On Thursday afternoon we're going to the BBC to deliver the Question  
Time presenter, David Dimbleby, thousands of messages of hope from our  
supporters. Your stories, your experiences and your belief in an open  
and tolerant society will send the strongest possible rejection of the  
BNP's message of hate. You can send your message of hope here:


http://action.hopenothate.org.uk/questiontime

The BNP's goal is to divide us. It's to whip up fear and hatred in our  
communities and then exploit the anger that they've induced.


But we don't have to accept their hatred.

2009-10-21 Thread Nik Stoltzman
Seeing as we're discussing this on-list, please could someone explain to me why 
boycotting Nick
Griffin/exclusing him from a debate is the 'right' thing to do? From the 
opening few lines of the
article in The Times:

It’s an editorial decision based on a feeling for what the public think, and 
it’s correct. In
2009 people expect to make their own minds up, and don’t want to be cushioned 
from discussion,
however problematic.

Please can someone give me a measured response why this is not the way forward? 
I am happy to be
convinced otherwise. I have yet to be presented with anything that challenges 
my standpoint.

redeems himself by turning it into a sweaty stringie mess the second

Shipping in/out of India (or anywhere in this region) is a nightmare.

You will pay a ton, but use DHL or FedEx (I'm in Dubai and haven't
seen a UPS truck yet).  The next step would be for you to pack it -
like...really overly crazy pack it.  Then, when you go to the FedEx
Kinko's - have them put their packaging over it, including cushioning.
   I would also recommend putting a plastic bag inside of your
packaging, putting your records in that bag and sealing it.   It is
not uncommon for packages to be left in the rain.  And insure it.

Umm. yeah.  The main reason for this is because you have a box that is
outside of normal regulations (size/weight).   This isn't america or
western europe, as I'm sure you are aware.

Good luck in Bangalore.  Be safe - there have been a rash of violent
acts towards westerners up north, and it is quickly spreading south.

You must some serious carpet in your place! I would start off by

be coming from there. I would suggest buying a new one to see if it

 yes right now. I could literally pull it out and check every

 mixer.

 Maybe the building isn't grounded properly. I live in a super old

 Just a guess, though, I have nothing to back that up.

(313) OT: Stanton SMX-301 DJ mixer zapped?!

2009-03-12 Thread Thor Teague
Hello 313,

Pardon the OT, but I know someone will have insight if they could hit
me back offlist.

I recently was cleaning my apartment, and this arc of static
electricity the likes of which I've never seen jumped off my hand and
into my mixer. The audio POPPED loudly and went dead. After that, it
would power/light up and bump the speakers but it does not accept any
input whatsoever. No bouncing levels, no audio (obviously), no
headphone cueing, no booth output.

Is this something that could be feasably fixed or should I get a new
mixer? The SMX-301 is not a particularly expensive model, but if it's
fixable maybe it makes sense to do so. Otherwise, might be time for a
new mixer!

E-mail me offlist with any insight, sorry bout the spam.

 Pardon the OT, but I know someone will have insight if they could hit
 me back offlist.

 I recently was cleaning my apartment, and this arc of static
 electricity the likes of which I've never seen jumped off my hand and
 into my mixer. The audio POPPED loudly and went dead. After that, it
 would power/light up and bump the speakers but it does not accept any
 input whatsoever. No bouncing levels, no audio (obviously), no
 headphone cueing, no booth output.

 Is this something that could be feasably fixed or should I get a new
 mixer? The SMX-301 is not a particularly expensive model, but if it's
 fixable maybe it makes sense to do so. Otherwise, might be time for a
 new mixer!

 E-mail me offlist with any insight, sorry bout the spam.

2009-03-12 Thread Thor Teague
MEK, yeah looks that way! :) It was bright when this happened... I
think if it was dark it would have been almost as bright as a camera
flash. (No bad little kids doing bad little things though).

Kent, I tested everything, albeit less than maniacally. Let's assume
yes right now. I could literally pull it out and check every
connection, but I consider it 95%+ certain that the problem is the
mixer.

Maybe the building isn't grounded properly. I live in a super old
building, probably earlier 20th century build, like first quarter ish.
Just a guess, though, I have nothing to back that up.

That's messed up. First off, is the mixer the problem?  I.e. can you
run an IPod, CD Player, etc into your amp and hear sound? Do your
turntables still produce sound (maybe hard to do without a phono
preamp or mixer, but worth checking).

If so, the mixer is kinda shot.  You can try getting it replaced under
warranty from Stanton.  It's weird that you could build up enough
static charge to fry it -- for one thing the chassis is grounded, so
any electrical charge should have gone straight to ground.  For
another, all static-sensitive components (and there really shouldn't
be many) should not be vulnernerable because the path of least
resistance is through chassis ground.

(313) OT: visiting glasgow dec 9th-dec 14th

2008-11-29 Thread Frank Glazer
I've talked to some heads off list about this but wanted to give one
final call out to the list.  I'll be flying into Glasgow on December
9th in the early evening and staying until Dec 14th.  What's the best
way to find out about club nights/parties to check out?  I'll
definitely want to hit up rub-a-dub.  Can anybody recommend anything
else in the way of shopping or sightseeing?

Also, on the off chance that somebody's looking for a dj for a party
or club night, I'd be glad to throw down a few platters.  ;)

Update to this week-long drama:

The Shure E4c-N earphones arrived in the mail.  Though they are good 
earphones, they don't really hold a candle to the Shure SE100s.

The Shure E4c-N has much more noticeable bass, but the mids and highs 
aren't as crisp and clear as the SE100s.  Feeling disappointed and 
thwarted, I decided to return the E4C-Ns and buy the SE100s once again.

This time, I experimented with the different earpads for the SE100 and 
found the right one for my ear.  The increase in bass and overall 
richness was immediate.  The bass now is very clear and I'm very 
surprised that these earphones are able to produce some of the really 
low bass in certain dubstep or techno tracks.

So my final assessment is that the Sennheiser CX300s and the Shure E4C-N

are pretty similar in quality, though the CX300s were a little less 
expensive.  Either of them would be a very good replacement for the Sony

MDR-EX71SL earphones.

However, the SE100s win the prize for clarity and richness!!!  It is 
really worth paying the extra money for such a marked improvement in the

sound quality!!  Making the effort to try the different earpads will pay

off when you find the ones that fit your ears in just the right way.

Sennheiser CX-300 will do the job very properly – although they're not  
very solid built. And, when you compare them with any Shure or M- 
audio, you'll see that they sound much better even though they're much  
cheaper!

Very simple: I took them back to the store.

The first place didn't ask why I was returning them.  They simply issued 
the refund.


The second place asked and I told them I wasn't happy with the sound 
quality.  They didn't ask any more questions after that.


I got the third set through the mail, but I told that company the same 
thing, namely that I was unhappy with the sound quality.  They didn't 
make an issue out of it and said they'd refund the money once they 
received the item in the mail.

 Update to this week-long drama:

 The Shure E4c-N earphones arrived in the mail.  Though they are good
 earphones, they don't really hold a candle to the Shure SE100s.

 The Shure E4c-N has much more noticeable bass, but the mids and highs
 aren't as crisp and clear as the SE100s.  Feeling disappointed and thwarted,
 I decided to return the E4C-Ns and buy the SE100s once again.

 This time, I experimented with the different earpads for the SE100 and
 found the right one for my ear.  The increase in bass and overall richness
 was immediate.  The bass now is very clear and I'm very surprised that these
 earphones are able to produce some of the really low bass in certain dubstep
 or techno tracks.

 So my final assessment is that the Sennheiser CX300s and the Shure E4C-N

 are pretty similar in quality, though the CX300s were a little less
 expensive.  Either of them would be a very good replacement for the Sony

 MDR-EX71SL earphones.

 However, the SE100s win the prize for clarity and richness!!!  It is
 really worth paying the extra money for such a marked improvement in the

 sound quality!!  Making the effort to try the different earpads will pay

 off when you find the ones that fit your ears in just the right way.

 Funny that this topic should come up at this time.  My favorite Sony

 time to buy another pair.  The last set lasted for more than two

 years,

 which is really good considering that I use them daily for hours at a
 time and am not as careful with them as I should be.

 This time, I decided to try some other brands and took the plunge and
 bought the Shure SE100s from a store in town.  At $100 it was

 expensive,

 but I was curious to see if there was any significant increase in

 sound

 quality.

 The clarity and imaging were astounding!!  Truly!!  Listening to tracks
 I was well familiar with was like hearing them anew:  all sorts of
 nuances I'd never heard before were suddenly very clear.  The

 earphones

 also did an excellent job of blocking outside sounds.  I felt like I

 was

 in a wonderfully exquisite aural cocoon.

 My only complaint about them was the lack of bass, even though I tried
 pushing the earpads further in my ear.  It helped somewhat, but not as

 much as I would have expected.  I thought to put on one of the

 alternate

 earpads to ensure a better fit, but had trouble getting the pads off.

 I

 didn't want to risk ripping the rubber cover since I wasn't sure if

 I'd

 keep the earphones.  I never got to experiment to see if using

 different

 earpads would help with the bass problem.

 I convinced myself to return the earphones to the store because of the
 bass issue, but the sheer clarity of the sound haunted me for days

 after.

 Instead, I bought a pair of Sennheiser CX300s, which sounded just as
 good as my old Sonys.  They aren't really sound isolating, but they
 deliver a good, even sound.  No complaints at all.  Problem is that those
 Shure earphones were SO good,  I couldn't deny the massive difference in
 quality.

 Now that my ears got a taste of the really good stuff, they weren't
 havin' the Sennheisers, so I went online this evening and finally decided
 to buy the Shure E4c-N earphones today on Amazon.com ($89!!!),

 since they got even better reviews than the ones I tried a few days

 ago!

 Assuming the E4C-N is as good as I hope it'll be, I'll probably keep the
 Sennheiser earphones as a standby in case something happens to the

 Shures.

Sennheiser CX-300 will do the job very properly – although they're not
very solid built. And, when you compare them with any Shure or M-

cheaper!

I've tried earbuds, and the ones that were the best balance between
price, sound, and comfort for me were the dirt cheap Koss:

But earbuds in general bug me -- I haven't found any that were
comfortable or held an acoustically valid seal in my ear canals, so my
vote goes to these:
http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-202-Headphones/dp/B65BP9/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8s=electronicsqid=1221441987sr=8-1

They're very light, only cost $25, and do a surprisingly good job
cutting ambient noise. And they sound pretty good to me.

I've spent too much on expensive headphones that have gotten broken or
stolen, so if it leaves my house it has to be basically disposable.
The HD202s have lasted 6 months riding around in my backpack and still
look new, despite being light, plastic, and cheap looking.

I'm done crying over Grado SR80s when I lose the earmuff and the plug
goes wonky.

TP told me that he DJ's with a telephone because they work, they're
cheap, and no one wants to steal them.

Donnie James does all genres, so its very possible he did some
hip-hop.  He's been talking to Mike and them about putting out his
first release, but its a slow process by his own personal design.  He
played a sampling of his tunes for me one day and every track was a
different genre.  All very very good.

I'll left a message for Donnie to ask if that was his.  I'll keep you

wow - I just found out about this
a bit OT but I'm sure some of you on the list are into e.s.t.
one of those young fresh jazz groups pushing things forward

http://www.giantstep.net/news/817

e.s.t. Pianist Esbjorn Svensson Dies At 44

On Saturday June 14th, Esbjorn Svensson fell victim to a lethal diving
accident outside of Vrmd, Sweden's archipelago near Stockholm. Svensson had
been diving in a group at a landing stage and was later discovered at the
bottom severely injured. The pianist and founder of e.s.t. (Esbjorn
Svensson Trio) died at age 44.

Renowned for bringing jazz to a young audience with influences as wide
ranging as classical to funk, e.s.t.'s roots began to sprout in the 1980's,
and eventually they released their debut album When Everyone Has Gone in
1993. The trio quickly rose to notoriety in the Swedish and Danish jazz
communities. Esbjorn Svensson was awarded accolades, including Swedish Jazz
musician of the Year (1996), Songwriter of the Year (1998), a Swedish
Grammy for 1997's Winter in Venice, Trio of the Year by Jazzwise, the Hans
Koller prize as European Artist of the Year and countless more.

Musically, he was the light that lit the world because in what he did he
was pushing boundaries, said Burkhard Hopper, EST's manager. His music
inspired people in all corners of the world.
