(313) Detroit Techno magazine month!
Hey all, Theo Parrish is on the cover of this months Wire mag - http://www.thewire.co.uk Also, Mr. Atkins is on the cover of Wax Poetics mag, plus articles on Ron Hardy and UR! It's great to see Wax Poetics, whose main focus is hop hop, jazz and funk, reach out a little further to recognize techno. They did do a feature a few years back on the Beatdown guys, which is worth tracking down. http://www.waxpoetics.com/magazine/ I haven't read either magazine yet, saving them for my 14+ hr trip to Sydney from SFO tonight. Enjoy! Patrick
(313) Detroit Techno Militia (LIVE) @ Club 106 studio Scorpio
Hi all, Next thursday april 15 @22h CET/15h EST, Club 106, Klaina and Trish Van Eynde are very proud to present A leading part of Detroit Techno Militia live at their underground studios in Leuven. Anyone interested in catching the live stream of this event can do so at the URL below. Live stream: http://www.radioscorpio.be/luister Club 106 is a weekly techno show on Belgian Radio Scorpio and is hosted bi-weekly by Trish Klaina. The show runs 3 hours, starting at 22h CET (that's 15h EST). http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=100857096624763 DJ Seoul is one of America's leading ambassadors of Detroit Techno and Techno Bass. With lightning fast mixing skills and exceptionally technical scratches and juggles, Seoul brings an energy to the dancefloor that is rarely seen. As a producer, his work on the Detroit Techno Militia record label and his remixes for Drugaci Exhibitions have garnered him worldwide acclaim. DJ Seoul gives the crowd one hundred percent every time he performs. This energy is clearly visible and reciprocated by the audience and will bring this vibe into our Scorpio basement ! T.Linder takes a no-nonsense, working-class approach to the art of spinning records. If someone's going to pay money to hear me spin, I'm going to make it worth their money. The way I look at it, there's too many DJs out there meticulously and methodically blending records that all sound the same. As a listener, I'm easily bored with that. I like to take some risks when I perform,skipping across genres and eras, doing scratch tricks with two copies of the same record. I want to give the listener the experience of hearing something they haven't heard before. Der Mercenary was born and raised in Detroit, and since an early age, he’s been influenced with the social and artistic movements, which arose in that city. Heavily inspired by the early Detroit techno culture, he began collecting records and DJ’ing in 1996. After a move to Chicago in 1998, he began to spin at rave parties, clubs and radio stations around the Midwest (Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Milwaukee). In 2000, Der Mercenary began compiling his studio equipment to produce his own techno music and started spinning overseas in Europe. After moving to Chicago and Europe, he moved back to Detroit in 2002 , where he acted as the Vice President of Mission: Detroit association – organization dedicated to promoting electronic music and philanthropy in the city of Detroit (www.missiondetroit.org). Der Mercenary has performed in many different countries on numerous occasions, playing at Triebwerk in Dresden ( Germany), Clues ( Belgium), Cologne (Camouflage), and Rewers and Paragraph 51 in Poland. He tag-teamed with Kube72 (Ian Cheshire) for an official Movement 2003 afterparty, and played at just about every popular bar/club in Detroit (including the Works, Corktown Café, O’Blivions, McCarthy’s pub, Mission: Detroit, etc.) . In early 2004, der Mercenary moved to Belgium. These guys will bring you an unforgettable two hour dj set and will explain you all about Detroit techno Militia, upcoming tour plans and more straight from leuven on air and live stream on http://www.radioscorpio.be/luister 22pm gmt+1 untill 01am gmt+1

(313) Detroit techno Wikipedia article needs help
There's talk of merging out of existence the Detroit techno article on Wikipedia. It currently consists of little more than a summary of the first part of the main Techno article, which I and others had put an enormous amount of effort into over the years, relying heavily on citations of Techno Rebels. So much more could be said about Detroit techno - things like what it is in musicological terms and how it's different from other forms of techno, which notable artists and labels are purveyors of the genre, and how producers in the UK Europe came to emulate the style - but to date, the article has languished, attracting virtually no contributions of any substance, mainly just self-promotion or vague statements that the genre exists, nothing properly cited, except for material copied from the main techno article. I feel strongly that the topic of Detroit techno deserves more than just a brief sentence or paragraph in the main Techno article. The main techno article instead needs a paragraph which summarizes and points to a detailed, separate article about Detroit techno. So I'm putting out a call for volunteers to help improve and add more detail to the Detroit techno article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit_techno Thanks.
(313) detroit techno/dance music filmography
Greetings all, As I start to prepare my own project, I am trying first to assemble a filmography of Detroit, Detroit techno, club music, electronic music, etc... If anyone has some extra time on his hands, email me about any films that were cool, or why they were not, whatever, I'd be grateful... I've already seen, Maestro, Intellect, High Tech Soul, and a few others. What am I missing ? Any music docs that you think are awesome or worth checking, let me know about. I havent yet seen the Artur Russell bio, nor the Chip E, ;) they're both supposed to be worth checking out for very diff. reasons... Thanks, A PS Jeff Mills is on some other sh*t. He blew up New York City last night. He literally played 5 hours of music that's mostly all his own and unreleased. And he was on point from minute 0. Anyone who wasnt working or didnt have some other commitment truly slept. I dont know anybody who's pushed themselves, changed and grown as much as he has.
(313) The Cheese (was (313) Detroit Techno Pioneer Kanye West)
I agree, that's why I dig on Junior Boys, Morgan G, Kelley Polar, etc. Everything in moderation, however Beneath every jaded techno-snot is a cheese aficionado just looking for an excuse to break it out -Arturo. PS Cheese and Metro Area. Cheesy music is just emotionally effective music that people relate to immediately. Only it's gone way over the line into bathos and pandering. There's a whole lot of awesome that happens when someone tiptoes right up to that line without crossing it.

(313) Detroit Techno Pacman
http://www.pbfb.ca/pac-mondrian/detroit_techno/ http://pbfb.ca/pac-mondrian/images/detroit_techno_map.jpg The Detroit Techno level reproduces a cartographically exact map of downtown Detroit in the style of Piet Mondrian, and marks the birth of techno in the city. The address of 1486-1492 Gratiot was known as Techno Boulevard. There the studios of Juan Atkins' Metroplex Records, Derrick May's Transmat Records, and Kevin Saunderson's KMS Studios took hold and pumped out intergalactic funk transmissions to the future. Launching the most successful cultural export from Detroit since Motown, the funk now had a raw electronic edge best described by May as what would happen if George Clinton and Kraftwerk met in an elevator. In Detroit Techno you dash into the studios of Techno Boulevard and emerge at The Music Institute, the first club to play techno. DJ T-1000 put it best: The Music Institute was Detroit's answer to such legendary house and garage clubs as New York's Paradise Garage and Chicago's Powerplant. At the beginning of this music, the MI was the only place you could hear Detroit Techno the way it ought to be heard: Loud. Bumpin. Funky. The ghost house marks the 1st Precinct of the Detroit Police Department.

(313) Detroit Techno Militia Launches Record Label
Label signs 2-3 year deal in conjunction with Cratesavers Muzik. Detroit, MI. (July 15, 2006) - Detroit Techno Militia, headquartered in Detroit, MI, has announced a working production deal with Cratesavers Muzik, a record label founded by the legendary Trackmasta Lou of SCAN7 and Posatronix formerly of AUX88. Detroit Techno Militia launched the label to display the latent talent within the militia. With the likes of their self-termed soldiers, the militia is unstoppable said Mike Harmon, long time DTM supporter and electronic music aficionado. Forming a record label is the next step they needed to take after building their solid reputation in Detroit and around the world. Detroit Techno Militia, a driving force in Detroits techno music community, founded the record label as a sub-label of Cratesavers Muzik. The partnership will combine distribution, management and the experience of the larger label with the clean proprietary design and attitude that has come to distinguish DTM as a major contemporary force in the battle against sub-par music and performances. Their in your face style of producing and DJing will surely raise eyebrows around and throughout the techno music community. The take no prisoners attitude towards their music helps the militia to advance and spread the gospel of the music that inspires them, and that will surely speak volumes. The much anticipated DTM-001 release is slated to include tracks from Der Mercenary, Loner9 and Sougon and will showcase the techno, electro and industrial genres, says Angela Schwendemann, label manager and founding member of the Detroit Techno Militia. Future releases will contain material from all contributing members of DTM and cover a broad musical spectrum. Working with Cratesavers Muzik will afford me the opportunity to learn more about the record industry and what it takes to run a successful label, says Schwendemann. The expertise and contribution of time from Cratesavers Muzik will help make us more successful, which will ultimately allow us to further our mission. We strongly believe this partner ship will continue the solid Detroit tradition says Trackmasta Lou, CEO of Cratesavers Muzik. The DTM crew will definitely be a force to be reckoned with. About Cratesavers Muzik Cratesavers Muzik was founded by Trackmasta Lou (of Scan 7 fame), and Posatronix aka B.J. (formerly of AUX88). As two of the hardest working producers and performers in Detroits electronic music battleground, and with over 30 years of combined record-making experience, the two joined forces to create and manage what they believe a record label should be. The label is dedicated to promoting and preserving the vinyl art of DJing. The records produced by Cratesavers Muzik are strictly for seasoned DJs who have accepted the mission to overthrow the collective of weak track dropping DJs. Refusing to pigeonhole their sound selection; Cratesavers accepts demos of all electronic genres. The minimal requirements are good music, and the talent can play in live analog. About Detroit Techno Militia Detroit Techno Militia was established as a grass roots DJ/Producer collective on a mission to promote Detroit Electronic Music around the world. All members are deeply inspired by Detroit's' techno history and work closely with several of Detroits most influential DJs and producers.

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
The original question, IIRC, was whether Detroit Techno (as a term) brought to mind abstract, string-laden melodies Of course, the question, what does Detroit techno mean today? is open, and answerable by all who care. Whether they're Aril Brikha (not from Detroit) or KDJ (militantly from it, and of it), all who care contribute to the ongoing answer. Put simply, the *breadth* of the field, and the willingness to engage and invent, are what characterize early techno. And I think, given the immense musical variety of those who still point back to Detroit, these things still characterize Detroit Techno today. I am constantly drawn back to sounds of Detroit Techno, because it is one of the few places where I am presented discussion related not only to the music but the character of dance electronic culture. Techno introduced me to the concept of society through music. In terms of communicating ideas and creating connections, 'Detroit' the music identity is a catalyst. As a discussion platform, the music is a structure which engages people. As a creative reference, speaks of a purposed thinking. And this is a fairly protected identity. Detroit ' is passively 'non-commercial'. It eludes to a more a organic path. It relates to a fluency naturalness in musical ideas. It suggests harmony in the circuitry, beauty in the machine state. Defiance, hope, succession, mastery, conscious, fearless, humanity. I understand Detroit Techno as a language and a culture. .simon -- . . . . . . ... .. .. // \\ gain more interest http://www.obscure.co.nz // \\ . . . . ... . . . .

When someone says to you Detroit Techno, what do you immediately think of? a) the hard industrial vibe hard music for a hard city? or b) the melodic mid-tempo beats of say, World to World, or Never On Sunday or something. there is such amazing variety, that's why the term 'detroit techno' means so much. it's a loaded term. there's the quiet/gorgeous/lush slow 69 tracks, stuff like Kenny Larkin's midtempo and downtempo cuts. there's the classic transmat era definitive dancefloor funk like Nude Photo, Icon, Kaos, etc... there's housier stuff like R-Tyme, KDJ, Andres, 3 Chairs. There's electro like Cybotron / m500 and computer-muzik roboty sounding stuff like Nite Drive Thru Babylon, Dopplereffekt, Drexciya, some UR. Even within UR look at the amazing range and variety of labels under one roof.There's the hammering of Axis stomper warehouse techno anthems, and the quiet/contemplative side of Mills in some of the Millsart / Metropolis stuff. There's Rob Hood as minimal microscope funky atom examiner of pure distilled techno, then you've got Hood in his stuff on Duet and Floorplan, totally lush and different... And 'nighttime world'! The same producer(!) Amazing.. Then there's cool out jazzy things like The Detroit Experiment project, which is something I can play on a sunday morning and still get a deep detroit vibe.There's funk/nu soul stuff like Amp Fiddler, Dwele, Innerzone Orchestra. All these are very different sides of the music (not even just 'dance' music) spectrum and that's why detroit electronic music is so great, it s varied. You can get a complete diet of quality electronic music from hard raw stompers to deep future music to laid back modern blues/house to just about anything in between, and never leave the 'detroit' section of the crates. :) an interesting question. people i talk to get into detroit techno through one door, and then find all these OTHER doors of detroit sounds opening as they look around inside. Dumb metaphor, but i hope you know what i mean it's so much bigger than just one sound, yet there's this intangible thing that ties the mood together... it's powerful. -- Matt MacQueen http://SonicSunset.com

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
It's interesting to see what people in Detroit might regard as 'Detroit Techno' isn't it? One problem is that as far as I can understand, the time, in Detroit, when masses of clubbers (of a broad age range, perhaps) go out to clubs and listen to 'techno' of any variety, appears to have passed. FOr club music, house and of course hip-hop rules at the moment, I think it's safe to say. This is just what I hear. But, I'm told, there was never a time when the more 'breakbeat' stuff - basically this is 'electro', but not exclusively so - was *not* more popular than 'techno'. Even more blurring the edges of this, is that there was and still is to an extent a tendency for many in Detroit to call what we call electro, techno as well! :-) (Please remember that all my impressions are second-hand. I haven't been out in Detroit in over a decade.)

-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 September 2004 09:50 When someone says to you Detroit Techno, what do you immediately think of? a) the hard industrial vibe hard music for a hard city? or b) the melodic mid-tempo beats of say, World to World, or Never On Sunday or something. I tend to think of the whole shebang, that whole spectrum of music ranging from something like Kaotic Harmony or Icon all the way over to the Tranquiliser EP or Seawolf. But I'd probably also say that there's something like a median Detroit Techno sound, halfway in between the two edges of the spectrum, that's probably exemplified by things like the fourth Red Planet EP and tracks like The Art Of Stalking.

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
That's odd, that was one of the tracks I was going to suggest as being a piece of dead centre Detroit techno. But having already mentioned Kaotic Harmony and Icon I figured that there was a bit too much Derrick May content in my email already :) When I first heard It Is What It Is I was already familiar with the concept of Detroit techno, and with much of the actual music as well. But the music had never matched so perfectly with the concept - if that makes sense - as when I first heard that track. Also, when it was on the Channel 4 documentary, playing over shots of May wandering around a deserted industrial estate and that circuit-board-as-city video, I just thought yep, this pretty much sums it up... It combines the melodic sensibilities of Detroit techno with its dancefloor aspects so effectively - hard to think of any other tracks that do that so well.

Re: (313) Detroit Techno
I personally am open to whatever - I think one of the things which makes Detroit techno so powerful is this sheer depth, range and quality of its influences - I find it pretty sad when people start policing what can and cannot be discussed with relation to the music we all love.The sound influenced by Detroit is certainly my first love, but I am also passionate about all music that matches that level of quality - I think that musical purism is just about the most pathetic trait to be found amongst people in the scene (though that's a WHOLE different rant!!) For my part though, the mention of 'Detroit Techno' always makes me think of the richer, funkier and melodic side of things - tracks like Amazon and Final Frontier are the first in my thoughts. The likes of Mills and Hood wouldn't spring to mind at all, although I do love their earlier material and they are obviously just as much a part of Detroit's history... - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 313@hyperreal.org Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 11:12 AM Subject: Re: (313) Detroit Techno Hmm.

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
I remember when I first came across that Flash guide to electronic music that was put together by a bloke called Ashok or something, which attempted to sum up Detroit techno with an audio snippet of Hood's Pole Position and a spiel about how Detroit techno is supposed to make you feel quite disoriented and lost. Of course, that *totally* missed the point, and I remember he was getting so many emails from people on 313 that he even put up a little notice saying if you're on the 313 list, don't email me OK!?... However, I do think that Hood and Mills count as Detroit techno (obviously!) even though they're not what might be called mainstream Detroit techno. One of the things I most like about Detroit techno in general is the fact that it's quite difficult to pigeonhole - you go to a Detroit techno party, and you're going to hear a very wide range of music as the night progresses. Most other styles of dance music can't really boast that degree of internal variation, I don't think.

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
Ok, the reason I called on Ian Cheshire to join in is because - now this i v. apt :-) - he's currently engaged in an intermittent tour in Germany called 'The Detroit Impressions' tour. And I think the idea is that the artists involved, inc. Ian, give their own 'impression' of what Detroit techno is mostly all about. Now anyone who knows Ian, knows that apart from being a very decent bloke, also knows that the techno he plays is usually at least upbeat and quite often what you could say is 'hard'. The thing is, he is to me perhaps the most hands-on authority I've met about djing in Detroit (I think you've played in Detroit quite a few times Ian , right?). So he probably knows more than most what goes down in the techno world in Detroit, and what goes down well. Greg Earle, the reason I requested that you join in is that I just remember you talking about going to parties in Detroit many years ago and up to the present day. Correct me and forgive me if I confabulate (a rare occurence, right?!?! ;-) Overall though, I think I'm with Brendan on this. For me, Detroit techno covers a lot of styles. It's hard, or it's purist, or it's melodic, or it's minimal, or it's electro! :-) Often it's got elements of all the above and usually, most people would agree that whatever 'funk' is, that undefinable element can often seemt to be in what we call 'Detroit Techno'. Just to give an example of what I'm listening to a lot at the moment which I'd say falls into the above - 'R U Ready' by X-Ile, on Direct Beat. Now of course, this is what most would call 'electro'. But to me the essence of what Detroit 'techno' (heh) is all about is in that record, and many more quite like it. k -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 10:57 AM To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) Detroit Techno Los Hermanos 'Quetzal' - for me that's the bullseye. and I'd argue that that record is pretty average. ha ha ha ha ha, lets argue all day, it's fun. : ) _ - End of message text This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers.

The majority of people on this list aren't here for hard techno, I reckon; mailing lists like G-Tech cater for that audience. While people aren't going to get shouted down for mentioning things like Punisher on here, you could probably guess that the average 313er is someone who likes a bit of the hard stuff when out in some dark sweaty club at 4am on a Sunday morning, but who generally looks for either a bit more funk or a bit more cerebral involvement from their electronic music. I might be wrong though! Who knows what the hundreds of 313 lurkers out there might be thinking? :) Brendan

(detroit) techno started with rhythim is rhythim, model 500, cybotron, innercity, etc. that was called techno. than ur, robert hood, alan oldham and jeff mills came, and took the sound into a different direction. that was still called techno (detroit techno). other evolved techno sounds from detroit are still referenced by many as detroit techno. but how about b12, black dog etc? detroit techno? or something else? ig culture, 4hero, maurizio, kompakt or playhouse detroit techno? the way i see it, is that if it sounds like some techno (offspring) that originally originated in detroit, it will be called detroit techno. if however the evolved version was first released outside of detroit, it will not be called detroit techno. jurren _ Talk with your online friends with MSN Messenger http://messenger.msn.nl/
Re: (313) Detroit techno
ok, how would you people categorize a record by i.e. Duplex or D5? :-) i thought for B12 and Black Dog was the term intelligent techno? always liked that one ;-) saw also ambient techno, or ambi-techno being used. delsin has been called post-detroit and once somewhere as well soft-techno isn't that wonderful?

RE: (313) Detroit techno
Thanks to all those who hit me back about my posts. It seems your getting them and I'm not. This is due to my mail at work being ed up. Annoying but I guess when I rely on work for a PC I can't complain - I should get my own. But then how would I afford those seductive black shiny discs? What makes things worse is that it's not that I'm not receiving anything at all instead mails are coming through sporadically in a random order. Try reading the thread above when sometimes a rejoinder precedes the comment that occasioned it by a couple of days!

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
The original question, IIRC, was whether Detroit Techno (as a term) brought to mind abstract, string-laden melodies (the kind that demand emotional as well as physical response) or abstract-minimal-but-bangin' nonetheless tracks like the ones that have long made Mills famous. Of course, the question, what does Detroit techno mean today? is open, and answerable by all who care. Whether they're Aril Brikha (not from Detroit) or KDJ (militantly from it, and of it), all who care contribute to the ongoing answer. Which is why Detroit Techno as a term, like the 313 list itself, hasn't shrivelled into a too-narrow, too-precise, and too-uptight-to-have-fun genre. (This is, BTW, exactly what Simon Reynolds continually argues about Detroit and Detroit-o-philes in _Generation Ecstacy_. A big raspberry to him.) But asking whether Hood and Mills count as mainstream Detroit techno actually pins quite nicely the *historical* (not present-interpretive) component of the question. What if ALL of Mills' output is really taken as a centre or mainstream of Detroit Techno. I mean everything from Wizard sets (which are contemporaneous to the prep scene in Detroit, and predate the very coinage techno as do the early works of Atkins, May Saunderson) to his work with the industrial Final Cut to his abstract soundtrack works to the hardest Punisher Axis releases... I don't mean to diminish the work of anyone else with this example, but if you consider Mills as the very centre around which Detroit Techno has whirled and developed, you get an answer that takes you back to the very beginning: In the beginning, there was a crowd of kids who tried different things. They experimented -- with analog synths, with turntables, with backtracking their way out of mixes, they tried on early hip-hop electro mixing techniques, and were driven both by the mad techne (technical wizardry, whatever) of pounding rhythms and by the desire to express something through machines, without recourse to what they clearly saw as limiting forms of balladry storytelling in RB, rock-n-roll, etc. They have truck with hard percussion stripped of all melody, and they put out lush instrumental soundtracks that sound like they come from American Minimal composers like Steve Reich or John Cage. They try nearly *everything*. Put simply, the *breadth* of the field, and the willingness to engage and invent, are what characterize early techno. And I think, given the immense musical variety of those who still point back to Detroit, these things still characterize Detroit Techno today. Please continue to discuss at length. That's what this list has been here for -- ten years now. -marc c.

Of course, that *totally* missed the point, and I remember he was getting so many emails from people on 313 that he even put up a little notice saying if you're on the 313 list, don't email me OK!?... However, I do think that Hood and Mills count as Detroit techno (obviously!) even though they're not what might be called mainstream Detroit techno. One of the things I most like about Detroit techno in general is the fact that it's quite difficult to pigeonhole - you go to a Detroit techno party, and you're going to hear a very wide range of music as the night progresses. Most other styles of dance music can't really boast that degree of internal variation, I don't think.

The likes of Mills and Hood wouldn't spring to mind at all, although I do love their earlier material and they are obviously just as much a part of Detroit's history...
Re: (313) Detroit Techno
Ken - my first Detroit party was the 313 5-year anniversary party in December 1999, and the last was Monday night at the Werks in June 2003. While I feel qualified to say what Detroit Techno means to me (for me, the rhythms - that shuffle beat with lots of hi-hats, etc. - is a key element compared to other music), I'll defer to the likes of Yussel, Garrett, Dan Sicko, Ian Malbon and Diana Potts when it comes to Detroit club music. Alex - I've got several friends in SF, but I've never lived there a day - I live in LA :) While I remember The Units, I don't think I ever saw them - they didn't play down my way too often. I was pretty skint in the late 70's Punk days so I couldn't get to 1/10th the number of shows I wish I could've gone to ... I assume you've seen http://www.synthpunk.org/units/history.html then?

With all respect for Simon Reynolds, that boy was pretty quick to make that argument about any scene that wasn't grassroots or 'ardkore or working class enough for him (read: authentic).
