RE: (313) Juan Atkins officially awarded for the 'International achievment'
I have half a second, so let me say this... Anyone who knows me knows that I'm not shy about voicing an opinion, whether good or bad (and i think i spend a lot more personal time talking about things I like). Like most everyone, I'd say there's my online person, in-person person and professional person- each one being a little more polite than the one before. i still stand by what i said. i don't think other people had any business getting involved with fetroit/Michigan civics issues when they don't live in the place, come from that place, or know any of the factors involved. perhaps you think that my publicly declaring the reasons why juan shouldn't have been included with derrick and kevin were out of line. maybe it would have been enough to just tell people to mind their own business. if i was merely trying to 'expose' someone's dirty laundry or 'prove' how in the loop i am, i would have just spouted off right away. i didn't. i did hint that perhaps there was reasons for juan's exclusion, but evidentally some people can't take a hint. whatever- its just my opinion anyways. but nothing i said was private knowledge. it's all public. i'll admit that the way i said things were probably a little flame heavy (thats that on-line persona that most people have), but speaking up when i think something is wack is certainly a right i maintain, on this list, or in person, or (when it's acceptable), in the print. I don't think that to do my job properly, i have to constantly behave in a consistant manner in my personal life. when i put juan on the cover of urb, with derrick and kevin last year, it was to tell a 20 year old story that is worth repeating. but- perhaps perpetuating the 'big three', as all journalist in this field do, is what contributes to the widely held assumption that none of the individuals should be allowed to exist without the others. that's why i was sure to pose that question to them, in person, and then print the response. maybe i also feel that it is my personal responsibility to counter some of the 'myth making' that is inherent in my job, by stating the contrary in my other communications to the world. also- be aware that a lot of my more skeptical opinions of people comes from working with them on a professional level (or lack of) both as a journalist and before that as a promoter. i never have and never will air that dirty laundry in public as it usually involves other people's money. so i guess this has actually turned into my response in full to this debate. if anyone would like to further discuss this, please do it privately (unless you think it's something that would benifit the whole list. i'm the last person who should tell anyone to take things private.) have a good weekend all.

Matt MacQueen forwarded me yussel's reply to him, which was addressed to 313 as well as Matt directly. Why it didn't appear in the Digest is anyone's guess. Anyway, I just wanted to apologize to Matt, I didn't really think he would reply publicly to private e-mail, which is why I phrased it the way I did (asking which it was).

I just called it like i saw it. Maybe I'm crazy... if this is all my imagination i'm actually relieved that it's just some bizarre oversight in your communication technique all this time. Personally i'm a fan of direct accountability. i no wait- no one on this list reads anything except dan sicko and technotourist (no offence to either). nahh, if you think there's something great in urb, or WIRE, or XLR8R, or WaxPoetics, or KeepOn, or FutureMusic, or wherever else, tell the list! the articles you wrote about sound interesting.. feel free to plug them, post them online (if you have can, i know that's often not possible), they sound on topic to me. i let my subscription expire years ago when i felt Urb was going downhill... but you're totally right i haven't checked in lately. I always read the Scott Sterling bits back before it got more wide and R&B stars were on the cover. I'm not anti Urb, i'm anti blanket tabloid-y Jerry Springer Show dissing of anyone you feel like hating on. I am anti- any music journalist who just thinks they have to be a bitter trash talker in order to be thought of as 'in the know', or worse, someone who has to trash talk in order to make us ignorant zombies look past the haze of blind fan-dom. Most of us here can. It just seemed to me like you're so dead set on debunking anyone genuine love for the music that you want to come after these artists for reasons that frankly I don't think that many people give a care about... I don't think 313 is a place for exposing all the warts you know and want everyone else to know, if it's irrelevant to the records and the music.. it seems like you feel it's your duty to keep trotting that stuff out as soon as someone is getting praised for something. it's like you think you're doing 313 some great service as a hard-hitting investigative reporter that will bring The Light down to us ignorant sycophant simpletons. I just wanted to tell you it's annoying to see it played out over and over. New day, different thread, but the same haytin. I think it's lame you just have also cast us all in a single brushstroke as not up for debate, not willing to criticize, that's a pretty oversimplified view... some of just have an internal "ill hater" regulation meter, where yours is apparently in need of a tune up. i'm sure you somehow think that your little college radio show somehow makes more of an impact than a national magazine that gives a consistant spotlight to underground music. all i can do is laugh, that's a good one! come one, we've met, it's funny you think i'd think that... I don't think i'm making an impact on sh!t except on how much of my paycheck I spend on bandwidth transfer each month.. ha. Frankly i have no delusions of "making a differece" beyond a fairly niche group of listeners in town and online, and while i'd love national impact, it's not my lifelong goal and I have no delusions of grandeur about what i'm doing. I'm a nobody! I like DJing and digging and the fact that i have an opportunity to share classic music I find interesting every week is something i do for free, and something i'm grateful I have a forum for, however miniscule it is. The site is basically just a ghetto blog for audio files. By contrast, Urb will always reach 10 million more people, if only because it's advertiser supported so it has funding so it has legs, reach, marketing, momentum. That's what it's for. That's why Urb exists. I'm not saying Urb doesn't have a right to exist, it fills a niche for what it is, and it's great people can have writing for Urb as a fulltime job, cause you're into music like we all are, but you're getting paid to write for it and that's awesome, actually, if you like what Urb is all about. Playing/unearthing/mixing records is, however, more fun to me than writing about them, but to each his own and I am glad there are both writers and DJs. And people who do both. But just so you know my show is making NO more than a tiny tiny difference, but one i'm into making, and that's a personal decision I'm comfortable with. I'm not chasing fame as a DJ (obviously! i missed that boat 10 years ago) and I think it's funny as hell anyone would think I am, especially in this country. I also know I could lose the radio slot at any time, so i try to make the most of it while I still can... Also - I'm

I think it's silly to compare - like saying who is more beautiul J Lo or Halle Berry or, um, Christy Turlington? Like saying who is the best rapper of all time - this person or this person. Art is not a sport. I don't think this is the place to play divide and conquer - even unwittingly. I very much doubt that there is any of that negativity. On a global level these awards, while symbolic, count for little - the records are the legacy and all three have made some incredible music and influenced many worldwide.

I think Josh Glazer thinks it's his role as a budding (or, do i have to say 'established') writer for Urb that in the true tabloid-y, over-reactive, back-biting biting world of getting a name for yourself as a dance music journalist. Where you think have to piss everyone off for awhile by saying ill-conceived poison so everyone think you have some sack as a writer with your own opinions. In some ways I admire that, but mostly I don't, and I get so tired of seeing it played out. I'd call you a victim of the system... (Urb, enough said?) but that would be letting you off too easy. I'm sorry but i just can't understand throwing dirt down on people like Claude and Juan for some personal decisions they've made in their lives when they've contributed so much great music. On a 313 list no less. Without Juan you wouldn't be writing about techno.. you'd quite possibly have a different career/interests altogether. There are probably some detroit techno artists who probably don't pay their child support, owe some people money for bad deals, and have a substance abuse problem or maybe don't always put on clean socks everyday JUST LIKE THE REST OF THE POPULATION has at some point. Juan's award was for his contributions to MUSIC, right?? If he doesn't most deserve it in techno, WHO DOES in America? I'm not saying let's elect him to office, i'm saying let's recognize his contributions to electronic music. Do you have to try and take that away from him? We all have dirty laundry, i guess you just think it's your job as a journalist to duty-bound diss and publically air other people's on 313. Not every ounce of haytin' that comes through your head needs to flow into your keyboard. Please consider these kind of things before you moan about them on 313. It never ceases to amaze me.

I agree. >some European idiots How do you believe that the 'detroit techno economy' might stand up without the 'european idiots' that run labels, run clubs or just buy records? I think it might be f**ked, don't you? Certainly alot of American people tell me they don't sell hardly any records in America, or never get any decent paid gigs in America. And, lastly, re Juan.

Not anymore than Juan Atkins is present or not at some partys/events. 3/If you read carefully the letter writing for the guestbook in support to Juan Atkins,you will find the reach point of this support. Juan Atkins was excluded from this 'awards' due to his location. Not due to his participation or not to the Techno music in Detroit or anywhere in the world since twenty years or one year. 4/The recent efforts of Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson are totally respectable and we are (stupid europeans) in admiration on their job to keep Detroit Movement festival alive. Again, it's totally out of the subject. 5/They will be disgusted to share the award with Juan Atkins? Since the begining of Techno Music, they was not 'disgusted' to share the spotlight with the title of 'originators' and this title is certainly a part of their success and the 'international achievment'. Even if it's a minimal part. And again, BIG RESPECT to Juan Atkins, Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson. And I'd like to remember you that 'stupid europeans' have done a lot for Detroit Techno. Do you remember labels like Buzz Records, R&S, Tresor, ... And they continue to do it. Majority of peoples who have signed the guestbook are europeans who keep Detroit techno at a high level in Europe. I don't know where you have finding any informations about our 'too much time in our hands'... But let me say you that it is not your problem. Please put your attention in your own life and not in our own life. Too, we are not only fans of 'ancient techno wax'... And we are not 'experts'... But we are supporters and fans of Detroit Techno and this give us the right to defend something we trust and for what we have passion and love. For your information, it's an american who have writing the letter in support to Juan Atkins. You have the right to don't agree with our action, but again I ask you only one thing. Be polited. 313 list is not a place for war between races or locations where you are from. A last word, I respect deeper all americans and all others on this planet. For me we are all the same, black, white, yellow, pink/green/orange if you want ! But some peoples have what we call the respect and the education some have not
Re: (313) Juan Atkins officially awarded for the 'International achievment'
20 years ago? please! if i read right, the award was for art, not business achievement. or philanthropy or civic duty. mirror mirror...who is the flamebaitiest of them all -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sep 15, 2004 7:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) Juan Atkins officially awarded for the 'International achievment' ok- i was keepin quiet, but this is a f**king travesty. what has juan done besides make some special records 20 YEARS AGO!!! derrick and kevin deserve this award, because they've put their time, energy and $$$ into making the Detroit festival happen. but no matter what they do, they'll forever be tied to juan- the man who couldn't even make his DEMF gig (and hundreds of other gigs) The man who as recently as this summer blew off throwing the opening pitch at a tigers game and i believe skipped the Metro times Motor City Music Awards after they flew him to Detroit to recieve a lifetime achievement award. Sure, the guy made some influential records. So friggin what. If I were Derrick or Kevin, i'd be disgusted, that after all their recent efforts, they still have to share the spotlight with a person who has done nothing to benifit the city in the past decade. All because some European idiots with too much time on thier hands and a collection of ancient texhno wax felt that made them experts on Detroit civics. friggin shame On Wed, 15 Sep 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Yeah!
