I really enjoyed the tracks he played very minimal with grinding basss lines and all the looping he was doing it was sick. very minimal and german sounding. also around 11 am richie played this track that I would call epic techno not something you would dance to but very interesting and uplifting it lasted maybe 15 minutes and when he was done the whole place was clapping for like 3 or 4 minutes. well on the Quadraphonic soundsystem it had a huge impact and was really rocking the crowd! I talked with the sound guys because I was interested in the system and they told me it was not a quad system it was stereo, but it sound so damn good, clean and LOUD. And Richie Hawtin has nothing on him for volume. I had foam plugs in and it was still loud. I thought something was falling from the ceiling and hitting my forhead, but it was the sound from the PA hitting my skin. yea I have to agree rich's parties are just getting louder. after last years jak and control I thought it could not get louder but I was wrong, I am just woundering how much longer he can keep it up before he goes deaf (if he is not already) Control was the archetypal Richie Hawtin experience. The smoke and blue strobes remove your visual sense, the volume effectively renders your ears useless. All you're left with is the intensity of the bass, which regulates your breathing, and Richie deciding when you inhale and exhale. you hit the nail on the head! scotto - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [313] All Access 2 / Control
I have to agree, I went to Richie's party wanting to know whether it lived up to all the hype. To be honest, I now wish I had gone elsewhere. Quite frankly, I found it to be formulaic-- his material tended to be very monotone, and the tricks as far as cutting the bass, playing with the groove and then dropping the bass again, were predictable after a while to say the least. On the other hand, his minimal tools, when combined with disorienting lights and an overwhelming soundsystem, did certainly show why his parties are popular; on a pragmatic level this setup was quite effective at getting the crowd going and dancing together. I kept waiting with the thought that, since he obviously had the crowd where he wanted them, maybe he would now let us hear something deeper and more tweaked on that sound system? On the other hand, I am not sure what the exact lineup was before Richie, but I did enjoy all the music from the start of the party up until Richie, I know Villalobos played but I'm not sure if someone else opened (it was too smoky when I first entered the main room to tell.) Although things were minimal i thought they were much funkier, much more what I had hoped for. i've heard MP3 mixsets from richie that I though were pretty good, so I guess my thought is that in Detroit Richie preffered to push a stripped down sound which is perhaps what some of his fans, (esp. the ravers) expect and are into. I wonder how much of the impact of his set was simply a by-product of the soundsystem and room. For example, he played dBx's BABY JUDY at one point, actually a track I'm fond of, but not a track that I would immediately think of as being powerful; well on the Quadraphonic soundsystem it had a huge impact and was really rocking the crowd! Well those are my thoughts anyway just trying to sort things out. /dave Original Message Follows From: Ian [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: The Music Institute 313@hyperreal.org CC: Kent williams [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [313] All Access 2 / Control Date: Mon, 27 May 2002 17:58:58 -0400 On 5/27/02 12:56 PM, Kent williams [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Radioboy/Herbert was totally mad, destroying products from corporate Icons like McDonalds, Gap, and Starbuck.
