(313) Interesting non-musical Detroit Event: Maker Faire
The 'Makers' movement celebrates the culture of individuals making things for themselves -- crafts, electronics, musical instuments, inventions If you're not familiar with Make magazine, it documents and celebrates the DIY impulse. I think Detroit is a great site for one their Maker Faire events. The DIY spirit is central to techno music: people getting ideas and making them happen for themselves. The people at UR and Submerge, for example, have built an international business from scratch, based on people doing their own thing. Detroit is a poor city with plenty of problems, but I know there are plenty of people solving problems for themselves there, creating their own arts, crafts, and technology. There's a second meaning to Ghetto-tech: poor people find ways to make do with little resources beyond their own ingenuity. The Maker Faire is a place where home-grown inspiration can be shown off, and hopefully inspire others. http://makerfaire.com/detroit/2010/callformakers/

According to my sister who was just there with my nephews boy scout troop: Yes... there is a wall/hall of techno left up there. Nothing major, but a little something.

(313) interesting pretentious music article
http://www.furious.com/perfect/technologytrap.html i find myself relating to both sides of this guy's argument. in alot of ways i find the old way of doing things to be superior. i also find the ability of electronic music to allow a single composer to also be a performer, arranger, engineer, etc at the same time to be the most important musical development since jazz. basically, i agree with his whole argument up to a point. his theory on the use of vocoders is absolute garbage, even someone who has heard kraftwerk once can attest to that. i think his choice of electronic musicians that are good belies his predjudice in writing this: jimi hendrix and stevie wonder stick out of an otherwise extremely pretentios group of mostly white artsy musicians. the man doesnt understand the primal greatness of techno and house music. most outstandingly annoying to me are his words of praise for brian eno. i love brian eno, i consider him to be one of my musical heroes. however, chalking up his success with nontraditional structure and composition with electronic instruments to his theory alone is missing the whole point of his music. i know eno cared about the philosophy, this is why he put explanations of his ambient pieces in the liner notes. the fact that his music exudes mood and texture is the real reason for his brilliance. these are some of the points i liked the most from this article: Computers have cracked open a plethora of fresh new noises, but we scarcely have time to grow accustomed to using one when another comes along to make its predecessor outdated. Too few know how to program a drum machine well, too few recognize unpalatable digital slickness for what it is. that really sums up the best parts of his argument. however, i dont think that most electronic music is guilty of this. if anything, people have accused some techno and house of stagnation because of the reliance on the old roland boxes and minimoogs. IDM wasnt guilty of this initially, they utilized most of the same gear and sounds. now, it, progressive house, drummy techno, and drum and bass are the most guilty of pretty much every accusation this guy has against electronic music. music is reduced to a cool sound, one that doesnt last long before the new sound comes along. part of old school techno and house's appeal to me is its rawness, the bad tape edits, the crap pressings of trax records, the primitive programming of the generally low end electronic instruments. see, these instruments dont force people into this perfection that alot of electronic music has boxed itself into. the mainstream attitude does: liking these ultra-pristine forms of music is more akin to liking bad pop music. the dirty old techno house idm and jungle is more like punk rock, its more about the expression and not the sound. yeah, lets argue about this for a while. tom andythepooh.com

Re: (313) interesting pretentious music article
Oh gawd. Adorno: call your office. There are a lot of problems with this guy's argument, the first of which is that he's pretty much re-hashed the elitist cultural critique of a writer (Adorno) who has been shown to be very intolerant towards any form of popular music--and particularly repetitive kinds. This guy tosses around phrases such as Music is a language or Great Music without really thinking about the consequences of his logic. Thomas was right to point out the mostly white, Euro/American bourgeois genealogy of composers/artists that are Great. A lot of these anti-pop, anti-technology, nostalgia-for-the-good-old-days sort of arguments have a tendency to indirectly re-support the idea that music associated with other genders, races, sexualities, etc. are somehow inferior. poop!

There are a lot of problems with this guy's argument, the first of which is that he's pretty much re-hashed the elitist cultural critique of a writer (Adorno) who has been shown to be very intolerant towards any form of popular music--and particularly repetitive kinds. This guy tosses around phrases such as Music is a language or Great Music without really thinking about the consequences of his logic. Thomas was right to point out the mostly white, Euro/American bourgeois genealogy of composers/artists that are Great. A lot of these anti-pop, anti-technology, nostalgia-for-the-good-old-days sort of arguments have a tendency to indirectly re-support the idea that music associated with other genders, races, sexualities, etc. are somehow inferior. poop!

RE: (313) interesting pretentious music article
Whilst his book on the Beatles is a fantastic text, the late Iain MacDonald was also guilty of this sadly. His Peoples Music essays book that was published shortly before his death is full of this similar thinking. A frustrating read, as it appears that he had some phenomenal ideas on music, but was not prepared to sail on the back of future technology and be prepared to criticise what had gone before, and see where it took him. -Original Message- From: Ken Odeluga [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 July 2004 15:07 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Org Subject: RE: (313) interesting pretentious music article Applause! k Oh gawd.

Re: (313) interesting pretentious music article
Consequently, placing certain restraints on how we use our musical tools is just common sense. Ugh. Gimme a break. . I might be able to take this person's arguments seriously if he made better connections and backed them up with things other than sloppy academic and pop culture references. This article seems like an exercise in masterbation unachieved - like you know it could have been really awesome, but it just ... wasn't. LOL! Growl. lisa - Original Message - From: Thomas D. Cox, Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 1:39 am Subject: (313) interesting pretentious music article http://www.furious.com/perfect/technologytrap.html i find myself relating to both sides of this guy's argument. in alot of ways i find the old way of doing things to be superior. i also find the ability of electronic music to allow a single composer to also be a performer, arranger, engineer, etc at the same time to be the most important musical development since jazz. basically, i agree with his whole argument up to a point. his theory on the use of vocoders is absolute garbage, even someone who has heard kraftwerk once can attest to that. i think his choice of electronic musicians that are good belies his predjudice in writing this: jimi hendrix and stevie wonder stick out of an otherwise extremely pretentios group of mostly white artsy musicians. the man doesnt understand the primal greatness of techno and house music. most outstandingly annoying to me are his words of praise for brian eno. i love brian eno, i consider him to be one of my musical heroes. however, chalking up his success with nontraditional structure and composition with electronic instruments to his theory alone is missing the whole point of his music. i know eno cared about the philosophy, this is why he put explanations of his ambient pieces in the liner notes. the fact that his music exudes mood and texture is the real reason for his brilliance. these are some of the points i liked the most from this article: Computers have cracked open a plethora of fresh new noises, but we scarcely have time to grow accustomed to using one when another comes along to make its predecessor outdated. Too few know how to program a drum machine well, too few recognize unpalatable digital slickness for what it is. that really sums up the best parts of his argument. however, i dont think that most electronic music is guilty of this. if anything, people have accused some techno and house of stagnation because of the reliance on the old roland boxes and minimoogs. IDM wasnt guilty of this initially, they utilized most of the same gear and sounds. now, it, progressive house, drummy techno, and drum and bass are the most guilty of pretty much every accusation this guy has against electronic music. music is reduced to a cool sound, one that doesnt last long before the new sound comes along. part of old school techno and house's appeal to me is its rawness, the bad tape edits, the crap pressings of trax records, the primitive programming of the generally low end electronic instruments. see, these instruments dont force people into this perfection that alot of electronic music has boxed itself into. the mainstream attitude does: liking these ultra-pristine forms of music is more akin to liking bad pop music. the dirty old techno house idm and jungle is more like punk rock, its more about the expression and not the sound. yeah, lets argue about this for a while. tom andythepooh.com

Re: (313) interesting stuff - Footwork, Stuff
HI everyone, sorry for being a bit late on the return with this one: GOOD. As many smart labels have figured out the deepest headz are brave enough to handle the switch-ups in tempos and styles within a single label (Planet E, also to some degree also Rush Hour, Archive, Kindrid Spirits, Delsin, etc. to name a few. Also other Glasgow labels are on a roll, how about their other great genre-bending labels like Iridide and Emoticon too?) I spoke to Tom Churchill (Emoticon) last week when he was in Amsterdam and he was discussing a new project he was releasing in a Masters At Work/Jazzy Bassline/Off Beat drums vein- good for the genre-busting points and good for music in general. There is a fine balance between picking up a labels releases and being pleasantly surprised by a carefully chosen departure from the norm and the other extreme where you just don't know what to expect next. A lot of people don't like to to be too confused by label's output- we were criticised occasionally on our first release for having too many styles on one record- it wasn't an overly eclectic choice we thought, it wasn't a Coil/Kylie mash up or anything. In the future Iridite will definitely be releasing more House oriented tracks and if the quality is right, Hip Hop and anything else we can get our hands on. Distributors definitely aren't too keen on multi themed releases but it seems distributors aren't too keen on ANYTHING these days :) Cheers Jason Brunton Iridite peace, Matt
(313) interesting stuff? (was RE: (313) re: best decks)
| So, anyone got any interesting stuff to tell us or what?! Err... The Artcyclopedia (http://www.artcyclopedia.com) describes minimalism as 'a style of art in which objects are stripped down to their elemental, geometric form, and presented in an impersonal manner'. Robert Hood's Minimal Nation EP (Axis, 1994) is as pure as it gets, discharging solidly 3-dimensional shapes into the sonicsphere. Listening to Rhythm, you meditate on its building blocks of melody and rhythm, and find in them sonic paradoxes worthy of Escher's drawings. From the underlying premise that music exists independently of humankind, minimalism attempts to strip away subjectivity and assume natural forms, thus attaining ultimate truth and ultimate beauty. This naked, quantum truth turns out to be more complex than the higher-order, multi-layered introspections fashioned by the ultra-conscious mind. A (hastily concocted but purpose-serving) existential riddle for you: what is a more complex concept - a piece of wood or a house built of pieces of the same wood?

the following is absolutely the truth: tonight i was doing my normal job to augment graduate school, which is working with autistic kids doing highly regimented behavioral modification therapy called applied behavior analysis. i was extremely stressed out because the kid was hitting himself and he pissed on my new steve madden shoes, so i decided to pop in a cd into the old cd player. the cd i chose was plus 8 classics vol. 1, it being the handiest and in my coat. the kid immediately stopped hitting himself and began following verbal directions to complete the discrete trials i was really suprised and decided to stop the cd. he started hitting himself again! so i put the cd back on. he stopped hitting himself again. not wanting the kid to start hitting himself again i left the cd on for the rest of the shift. now, i've had a couple of days to digest this. i decided that the heavy bass kick and textural acid lines provided some high level of stimulation. the only problem with the whole situation is that he's now fixated on the song with the vocal vortex and the squelching acid line. i had to give the cd to the kids parents for them to burn and bring back the next session. so any other suggestions for music to accompany applied behavior analysis? apparently my client has a hankerin' for acd!!! -sam __ Do you Yahoo!?

RE: [313] Interesting Indeed
Indeed, though *most* of what you've said is correct, the first point -- that the name is inconsequential -- is the only one under real question. let's not forget that the other big 3-day festival (jazz, you know, during whichever one of those labor day/memorial day weekends isn't in may and is in september, right?) built an *enormous* international reputation, and generated almost as much foreign tourism to detroit, and almost as many festival attendees, as the DEMF did in its first year. and what is that festival called now? i can't remember anymore, now that it's not montreaux. i mean, i'm serious -- no one knows what the name is. but ask anyone connected to detroit's rather limited tourism industry (with the exception of the boileau dude, right?) and they'll tell you that the lack of the name hurt international tourism for the jazz fest. at least for the first two years. and, BTW, let's not forget that teh way the freep article was written, May gets only six or seven words to give his framework for the suit. and any six or seven words that end and begin with the possibilty of the DEMF being bought by a foreign concern are gonna sound like the rantings of someone who's a little paranoid, or just into getting promotion. until you remember what happened to that other festival. you know. whatever its name is now -- i can't remember. cheers, -marc At 10:42 AM -0500 3/11/02, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: the name is rather inconsequential. the city of detroit owns hart plaza the city of detroit fronts the money for the festival (it is later paid back by the sponsors) the city will decide who gets the contract next year. this strikes me as a publicity stunt. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [313] Interesting Indeed/ DetroitJazzFest
Festival History / 1980-2001 http://www.detroitjazzfest.com/ Takes place during the labor day WE. The Detroit Jazz Fest was conceived as an effective means to combat the challenges facing the city in the late 1970s. Its creators believed that this world-class cultural event would bring both people and positive media attention to downtown Detroit, which was suffering from dwindling populations, businesses and visitors. From its birth in 1980, the festival attracted hundreds of artists and hundreds of thousands of visitors to Hart Plaza, Detroit's beautiful riverfront park, each year. The combined effect of the outstanding programming, great family activities, unsurpassed educational offerings and exceptional setting resulted in an international reputation for excellence. In 1994 this legacy and all it meant to the area was endangered when its founder, Detroit Renaissance, refocused on its core mission of economic development. Special events like the jazz festival would no longer be a part of the southeast Michigan community life unless other organizations adopted them. Detroit's Renaissance president, Robert E. McCabe (also known as the Godfather of Detroit Jazz), approached Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts, a non-profit historical theatre in downtown Detroit, urging them to take on this massive, but rewarding project. The artistic tradition and significance to the community motivated the trustees to add the festival to Music Hall's annual line-up of theatre, dance, music, family and comedy presentations.

RE: [313] Interesting Indeed
point well taken. the name does make a difference to a small extent. although i think the difference might be, the jazz fest is something that grew the demf was beyond huge its first year. set up the turntables and they will come. call it derrcik may's detroit techno how-down. it doesn't matter too much. anyways, the point i was really getting at was that derrick owning the name doesn't give him any control over who or what happens at hart plaza every memorial day from now until its still a FREE and PUBLIC festival, put on by the city of DETROIT.

Re: [313] Interesting Indeed/ DetroitJazzFest
If you are involve in Jazz you know it's Montreux, not Montreaux. And Montreux is the name of this famous city in switzerland where the Montreux Jazz festival takes place every year since 1967, runs by Claude Nobs, ex AR at Warner. Makes sense to me that they removed the name Montreux for the Jazz festival in Detroit.

Re: [313] Interesting Indeed
The Montreaux Detroit Jazz Festival, I believe, is now called the Ford Detroit Jazz Festival. I went to the meeting for last years festival and it made me want to puke. Ford sponsorship was one of the main topics of the meeting, because the money givin to the jazz fest, compared to the demf, was no where near the same. I guess you can't sell Ford focuses to a jazz crowd. They had a t.v. special for the jazz fest last year and actually stopped the music while broadcasting, so the CEO of Ford could come on stage and promote there cars. This was around the time everybody was getting killed in their suv's, because of firestone tires. (I puke, again) I can honestly say that the jazz festival may not even happen in the years to come. Thanks Ford. If the Howdown had the draw that the demf does, there would be some points we could all count on: 1. Ford releases a new car called the Rodeo(smells like a steak and drives like a mechanical bull) 2. The Ceo of Ford would be walking around in a ten gallon hat 3. The festival would be called the FORD Detroit howdown 4. The festival would fold, because the sponsors would eventually move on to the next money maker. All I can be thankfull for is that I was able to perform at Montreux(when it was still montreux) and I was able to perform at the demf(when it was still the demf). ja hey when IS that jazz festival?

The Montreaux Detroit Jazz Festival. Used to be that I would even miss my own professional conference for it. The best jazz festival in north america by my estimation.

The Ford International Jazz Festival is the new name i THINK. And what is interesting with this festival is that FOR THE MOST PART it has maintained its integrity. No Kenny G. highliners...all straight ahead jazz or old school fusion. But this may be because jazz has a longer history than techno...and more people who are very very aware of what jazz is. If someone bought out the DEMF would this happen? Could be...but one argument is that it would be easier to transform the DEMF into some sort of festival that the heads wouldn't recognize, with techno's version of Kenny G. being the highliner. peace lks - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [313] Interesting Indeed/ DetroitJazzFest
Actually, Ms. Marvin's 'in' with the city in getting the DEMF approved, was due in a great part for her 'marketing' skills in obtaining media and corporate sponsorships for the Montreux Detroit Jazz Festival. Perhaps this is a cycle?...just a suggestion ;) I agree that it is a shame how the jazzfest is now represented and believe that Derrick is perhaps trying to prevent the same from happening to us. The difference between the jazzfest and the DEMF would appear to be that there are a multitude of small independent businesses and labels that have kept electronic dance music from Detroit alive in the global environment and playing field and indeed made the DEMF a viable consideration in the first place. As long as we are not representing ourselves in any more than a creative capacity with the DEMF and not in the hardcore business aspect of itit is my contention that they will attempt to marginalize, market segment, brand, slice and dice it up any way they can (most likely...distastefully) to make a profit. I believe there WAS ALWAYS a happy medium in balancing the corporate $$ and marketing of this music to mutual success---with everybody winning---I'm just not sure whether one single person should be in charge of making those decisions for an entire community. Glad that Carol has a selection committee of our peers this year. She should, however, further engage a committee of the same types to approve business plans in a like democratic manner to keep us actively involved. This has always been my premise and concern. Carol should remain at the helm, as she 'actualized' this festival--more or less. But without engaging any of us in the business and marketing of the festival, disrespect will always loom ahead and be INHERENT from our simple lack of input/presence. I think perhaps this is what Derrick is correct in standing up for. The 'DEMF' name is far more representative of a community than it is a product to be bought and sold. Moreover, if Ms. Marvin was on her p's and q's the name would've already been registered. -humbly offered You'd think it was run by a Carol Marvin history-bending leech, instead of the well-adjusted corporate hack McCabe. _ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
