Haye!

I'd say, Mike Banks' message to 313 was most definitly the best and most
important post you had here. It was enlightening, educative and passionate.

I second most of the opinions on this topic of relevant posts, but I
couldn't let go unnoticed the clear insight contributions of Laura Gavoor.
Truly reflexive posts.

 My personal favorite was that dude who posted a 10 pager about
 boycotting DEMF because of Autechre's Cornfield album.  I still
 laugh about that one...

This needs a repost.  :)

Subject: [313] Why I'm Not Going To DEMF (Autechre)

Dear 313 Friends-

I'm afraid I will not be at DEMF this year. As a matter of fact, I am
now officially boycotting it and will no longer support Carl Craig,
planet E, the Ford Motor Company, or any other individual or association
helping sponsor or organize the DEMF. 

The reason for my seemingly radical stance is that Autechre will be
playing. Now, until recently, I was a very big fan of theirs, however
the controversy cam ewith the release of their new album Cornfield.
Now, being raised in the heartland of america, the Midwest as it were,
I have a strong afinity for cornfields and the earth below them. When I
first heard that the title for the new album would be Cornfield I was
very excited, Finally I thought, Autechre will be focusing on the
needs and unique experiences of the farmer! However, after several
close listens, I realized that this was not the case at all, in fact,
Autechre seem to be expliting and misappropriating farm scene culture
and ideas to make money.

As a matter of fact, Autechre's bastardization of the agricultural scene
is on par with Puff Daddy's exploitation of Grand Master Flash's The
Message. Both of these scam artists took something good and significant
and recontextualized them them into heinous consumer based exchange
entities. I'm sure Sean and Rob(ber) were sitting in their studio one
day, and said Hey, in the US they have a strong farmer community. I bet
if we made an album that appealed to them, we could make loads of cash.

It is this mentality that has infected almost each and every great
movement: Rock'n'Roll, Disco, Hip-Hop, Rave, and Agriculture. And
ultimately caused their downfall. I refuse to see the farm scene, which
I consider myself and active member of, get corrupted and commercialized
by a bunch of Englishmen... WHO AREN'T EVEN FARMERS!! This is just
unacceptable. 

And that is why you won't see me at DEMF this year.

Keep it real,

t2s

2001-05-23 Thread Mike Taylor

My four votes would be:

A. Mad Mike explaining why Detroit techno is the way it is, what it is like 
to be black in Detroit, and giving his perspective on what it is like to be 
involved in this business.


B. Ed Luna going on at length about how great the Metroplex party was.

C. Anything that ever came out of Lance Mcgannon's mouth.

D. Anything that came out of Alan Oldham's mouth until he got a tresor 
record and started thinking that the world owed him something.

Now, that's just not nice.  Even if the second part of your statement 
was true, his contributions to the list would more than outweigh any 
negatives IMO.

Lance has been very busy with his new position at CompUSA ed-u-catin' all 
of 'em about software.
Dunno if he's even on 313 these days. He's also been busy with the 
revolution on the IDM-l given the amount of stupid posts by stupid people 
and has started a new list called idm-m (moderated) via yahoo groups. I 
think he's tied up this weekend so won't be at DEMF (afaik), but he was in 
town about a month back. We saw the Orb at St. Andy's.
