(313) fuse-in detroit - technicolor mf

2005-06-01 Thread J.T.
hey matty macq

anyone go to the 3 Chairs party?   I also heard lots of good about the 
Soft Curls tent... Raiders live PA, etc.

raiders were INCREDIBLE -- not what i expected at all! i love 1 track on each 
pigna release (which makes them hard to buy as an import argh), and the album i 
thought was good but not that great -- i find a lot of this stuff a little too 
slick or cool or something on record...but live, it was all raw house and 
techno, huge basslines, so deep...i missed it but toe said he even played a 
track that sounded like what prescription would sound today...

i didnt hit the 3 chairs party, was playing at a sketchy psychothrill 
afterparty (was asked 2 days in advance haha, fun tho), but friend who went 
said it was really great. kdj was still spinning shock value rock or whatever 
as reported earlier this year, but theo and especially malik were apparently 
great! (?). i also missed dez (andres) on the waterfront stage on sunday, 
bummed,  but he sounded incredible also -- apparently playing dope old 80's 
rb, fun disco, even deelite groove is in the heart, quickmix style, 30 
seconds of each track then something else

quick list of my favorite stuff:

smackulator (saying hello and talking sh:t to all their friends thru the 
vocoder as they entered the tent hahaand all sounds from a dr660 -- nice!)

raiders!

cosmic force

legowelt (not doing his nrg style stuff, but electro and technoier stuff)

scan 7 - minimal techno perfection!!! nobody listens to techNO...did that track 
get released anywhere?

slum village -- no comparison to the subtlety of their recorded stuff, i hate 
how hiphop gets mixed live, you cant dance to vocals...but the homage to odb 
was dope, cosmic force was about to piss his pants and was rapping all the 
lines before them, including ones they missed...he shoulda been on stage!

model 500 - cosmic cars, clear, 2 minute instrumental of no ufo's, and the best 
-- the dirty version of technicolor! tech-ni-color mother-f---er!

bunker live (legowelt vs orgue electronique) - their set ended right when it 
had developed into some of hottest acid house/techno i have ever heard.

tlr - creme label boss playing great set of dutch classics, pumped to hear 
stuff like i-f's superman and electronome's no landscape

thats about all i saw actually, not counting alexander robotnick, whose dj'ing 
sucked, but his black wifebeater style was cool. he started out playing 
instrumentals of his own stuff and singing over it, which i wouldve liked, i 
just caught the crap...

redman before kms was ok, the last song for the smokers was a dope 4/floor 
hiphop anthem thing, hot, and i didnt notice he only said kevin saunder as 
someone else said...i heard saunderson? maybe my roll was just starting. i did 
think it was a bit uhh stupid and lame to have all this hype for proggy kms dj 
set, when juan had just played legendary sh:t live, but typical, whatever

i missed A LOT of really great stuff (hardly even saw minto ha!) but it was a 
blast, and i'm excited to hear how much of a success it really was -- turned 
out much much better than i expected, hardly any difference from previous 
years! and there were some nice changes -- realy glad they put all the 
banging stuff with little or no melodic content/dynamic range in the 
underground cave and put the really more underground stuff in the musicalogical 
where you could hear and hang out more comfortably. i was even invited to play 
live there sunday but i was s exhausted and uhh 2 hour advance notice 
ugh..sketchy and disorganized as always but whatever haha! ohh another thing i 
liked was the LACK of a huge corporate sponsor, no big bacardi ads or 
hit-you-over-the-head advertising in general, pretty lowkey sony and molson 
banners, very nice!

there was no AC, no ice, a fire, and a blackout in the pontch -- it was 
hellish. hadnt stayed there since the 2nd year, never again...anybody stay at 
the ramada, was it ok? i stayed there fri night and it was really chilled out 
and super nice and the room was essentially a fully equipped 
apartment...kitchen and living room with bedroom in seperate room...nice!

blah blah i go sleep now

Now that i think about it, he said kevin saunders, my friend heard it

you are tripping i think, i totally remember he said it correctly and then 
jumped onto the back of his pegacorn and flew away leaving a trail of rainbow 
sparklees

some wicked sketchy or maybe homeless guy tried to sell me something outside 
cobo, opening a black garbage bag and asking me e youwann some EATS!? and 
damn i was hungry but after several what??s i figured out he was saying 
e's...i wasnt really hungry enough to eat any food he might have had anyways, 
well probably, but it would have been about as good as the frozen pizza they 
were selling at the festival. like it wasnt even digiorno it was cheap frozen 
pizza, damn like you'd be making more money if you made your own pizza y'know, 
not smart. so but anyways yeah, still rolling, thanks sketchy dude, good eats.

weird how the cops wouldnt let you sleep on the grass, but you could pitch a 
tent? well, i saw two people in a little tent anyways, just sitting in it 
staring out from the flap/window. damn i bet it was nice in there!!!

best idiot shivers i got was in the hotel elevator, some big goofy whitebread 
dude was making chitchat with an indian guy and comes out with so, are you 
iraqi? awkward silence then i'm indian!! hahahaha soo pathetic, like wtf 
how can you confuse the two? and who goes up to someone and asks them what they 
are anyways? then dude is clmsily trying to explain how there are lots of 
iraqi's in the area and how that is weird because you'd think they'd want to 
live in a hot desert-y place. it was so awkard and so stupid like disgusting 
really but my gf and i were cracking up. it was reminiscent of the guy in front 
of me in LAX baggage check line a few weeks ago making clever freedom-loving 
jokes about how they should just put up signs for al qaeda 50% off and that 
way we'd catch all the terrorists, like wtf do i look like a patriot to you, 
andoh man. so many stupid people i hate everybody

another sketchy guy was outside the psychothrill party, at first enticing my 
friends to give him money to buy beer...like lamely joining conversations and 
then not so subtly saying things like yeah, and it would be so great to have 
some beer right now dont you think? beer would make this party off the hook -- 
how about you give me some money and i'll go get some and keep the change? 
after trying that for awhile he explained he desperately need taxi fare or 
something, and started trying to sell my friends beads - 2 beads actually, and 
he produced them from his pocket like they were solid gold or something ohh 
ahhh yo check these beads out you aint seen no sh:t like this before

ok now someone else ramble half-asleep stories about the weekend!

spinning shock value rock or whatever as reported earlier this
year, but theo and especially malik were apparently great! (?). 

kenny played mostly NYC house stuff, ending with a couple of his
new white labels mixed up with JAN. it was servicable though its
obvious he has the least technical skills of the 4 of them. rick
then played some more deep house and techno type stuff for a while
before malik came on. he was rocking it, mixing between acid,
detroit stuff (he played godson 1!), italo disco, boogie, etc. he
was really on point in selection and mixing. then theo came on and
played the most insane music ive ever heard anyone drop. i dont
even know if you can call some of it house music. people were
flipping out. best deejay set ive ever heard.

(that id guess he did) of amerie one thing that just looped the
vocal bit this is one thing thats got me tripping over the most
weird minimal housey type cut. they turned on a strobe light

no way. it was one cut, the first track he brought in after
malik's last record. it sounded like it was produced on mars, it
sounded far more like something theo would do (maybe a little
dusty cabinets-esque in its wrongness) and nothing at all like
anything krivit has done. ill get to the bottom of this soon

thanks to francis for the piccdilly tip, i found it:

Various Artists : Radio Slave - Showreel
Rekid
Amerie - One Thing (Rekid Mix) note
This double CD features various tracks, re-edits and remixes from
Radio Slave and Rekid (aka Matt Edwards) as well as un-reworked
tracks that he just likes himself. Includes tracks by Quiet
Village (his alter ego for the super-cool NY label Whatever We
Want), Amerie (reworked by Rekid), Gwen Stefani, Stereotyp Meets
Al'Haca, Lazyboy, Rekid, Carl Craig, Talking Heads (re-edited by
Radio Slave and Andy Mac), Roman Flugel etc.
2xCD - REKID05 - not currently available - sorry!
Ultra limited double CD - there's only 110 copies in existance,
and 60 of those were given away at Miami Music Conference! The CDs
(individually hand stencil-sprayed) come packaged in a DVD box.
Needless to say this'll vanish pretty quickly, so it's ONE PER PERSON!

so how can i find that edit? i dont remember him dropping it from
CD...
