There's a recent piece by Giorgio Moroder on SoundCloud on his introduction to the Moog and his work. I thought it was interesting. He's posted some interesting clips on SoundCloud actually. I'm not too keen on the 'I Feel Love' track with Donna Summer but he's cool. Seeing him with his white hair and still so much into the 'future' music is fantastic.You don't do yourself as much credit as you deserve with your mixing, but you are particularly modest :)On Apr 24, 2013, at 04:03 PM, kent williams chaircrus...@gmail.com wrote:I'm going to be 56 in August.

Re: (313) KRU Noise Radio 2013-04-20
Hi Andrew, I think all of us producers who are a bit older have experienced this same thing! I just discovered a CD of originals I made in 1999 (some of them with nothing but hardware and cassette four-track). I too was amazed just how ridiculously fast some of the tempos were, and also how hard some of it was generally. ~David On Wed, Apr 24, 2013 at 8:43 AM, Andrew Duke Cognition Audioworks new email address andrewdukecognit...@gmail.com wrote: I'm 44.

Re: (313) KRU Noise Radio 2013-04-20
I loved that Progressive Hardcore compilation on Rising High. That and Rings of Saturn by UR.Still got them. Those drew me to techno initially, as far as I remember.On Apr 24, 2013, at 04:36 PM, Joe Marougi jmaro...@gmail.com wrote:44 year old "House Dad" here too.

My first appreciation of electronic music happened when I was 14 or 15 (Kraftwerk! Tangerine Dream!) -- unless you count Switched On Bach, which was in heavy rotation at our house when I was 11 or 12 ... During the disco period (which ran roughly from when I was 18 until 21 or so) I gravitated to the more electronic stuff like Giorgio Moroder. I got into techno house music seriously about 20 years ago... The mixes I post are from Noise Radio KRUI (Iowa City) -- I don't get asked to DJ in clubs very often. Since I'm mostly using Ableton Live, some premeditation is involved, and my mixes are sorted from lowest tempo to highest. If you can start out at a lower tempo, the higher tempos later are felt as an increase in energy. On Wed, Apr 24, 2013 at 8:56 AM, Kerr Knoll kerr.kn...@me.com wrote: I'm 38. I'm another techno-dad. I understand there's a few on this list :) When I was younger I made couple of techno tracks on an Amiga computer and when I listened to them recently I had the same kind of reaction. They were about 160 BPM and I didn't really think about that at the time. It wasn't like what I listened to, though I'd been into Hardcore, or UK breakbeat as well as techno before then. I may have put that down to youth as well, but I'm not sure. On Apr 24, 2013, at 02:43 PM, Andrew Duke Cognition Audioworks new email address andrewdukecognit...@gmail.com wrote: I'm 44. I'll leave Kent to share his age if he so desires. In explanation: I've mellowed somewhat in terms of the speed of the tempos I produce and mix as I age. Example: I was lucky enough to have a track released on Matrix back in 1995, but quite soon thereafter lost my master and copy of the CD compilation. At the time the song was produced, it was the tempo I was into. I only recently reacquired that CD and I knew, as I was about to first listen to the track in 18 or so years, that it was going to be faster than what I produce/play these days. I figured it would be a bit faster than what I'm playing these days. Well, it was VERY fast. I shudder to listen to it now simply because it is so incredibly fast, it gallops along like some out of control train. Anyway, that's the way I'm feeling now as I get older, I still listen to a huge variety of styles of music, much of it much faster than the music I play on the show, of course, but personally I tend to make and mix music at much much slower tempos than when I was 20 years younger. http://andrewdukeinthemix.com On Wed, Apr 24, 2013 at 10:29 AM, Kerr Knoll kerr.kn...@me.com wrote: Well said :) On Apr 24, 2013, at 02:24 PM, "Lechowicz, Thomas" tale...@pointpark.edu wrote: On the note of age, I'm 21 and thoroughly enjoy the material you guys put out.

I'm not sure what age has to do with it though I suppose it's more measured with less urgency but no less lively. It's grown-up music. I'm neither young or old either. I'm not sure I can tell that much from music or whether or not it really matters. There's maturity and taste, and that counts. http://k-os.net/music/kerr-knoll http://soundcloud.com/kerr-knoll On 24 Apr 2013, at 02:31, andrewdukecognit...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for the kind words.

I note that both Kent and Andrew's mixes are about 2 hours each and filled with quality tracks. Thoroughly enjoyed those too. They are filled with laid-back colourful techno vibes. There are a lot of mixes about but you guys are doing a great job with these and well worth listening too.
