Come on you know it's LA, somebody's going to show up with their glowsticks and mickey mouse gloves on. I'm willing to put money on it. I haven't been to an event out here yet that someone hasn't whipped a few out. First Mills...Then Pullen...Now URplaying LA?! Must be my lucky year. And here I thought the only 313 to be heard in LA was my car stereo bumpin down PCH. Now let's not let this get out of hand out here. I kind of like getting the confused look from the trance kids faces when I ask them if they've ever listened to Rob Hood.

Re: (313) suburban knight on p'frog + liasons dangereuses
Dan played for just over two hours, dropping a great range of stuff from the house-techno spectrum - including a few of the tracks he uses on his forthcoming mix CD on Logistic. Some of the tracks I recognised were the Drug Punks' 'Suck My' on Subliminal, the Derrick Carter mix of DJ Sneak's 'Fix My Sink', KB Project's 'The Symphony (Can You Feel It)' on Elevate, the new Perlon 12 you mentioned, and quite a few others but my memory's a little rusty today...

Of course all of this is considered off topic so I'll just leave it at that, my point was to a good dj there is no such thing as a bad record, I challenge people to randomly buy used 12 you find at the discount rack (there are a lot of second hand music stores that sell old dance 12 for .50 or $1.00) and try incorporating that into a dj set with the techno you have in your crates and see what type of results you come up with.

Re: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
Well, you have to understand that there is a DEMAND for records with that pumped up sound, when most records are like this, records that are NOT tend to sound rather quiet and may unintentionally lower the energy. I guess I don't see anything wrong with making pumped up records if you are making them for club DJ's to play out in peak hour sets. A track made more for home listening or a deeper less aggresive set should probably not be made that way of course. Dance music does have a functional aspect, and I don't think one should say a record made for a peak hour type set can't still be good. The aesthetic of such records seems appropriate to their function... I see what you mean, and I agree that there's a case for functional records. I love working a bonus beats track alongside a more melodic/leftfield one, or even two beats, eq-ing and crossing them over. I guess what I've noticed (like a lot of people) is that when those records become the majority, and then when the artists involved get major kudos in the press (naming no names!) it gets right up my nose. So many times, when reading reviews etc., I see a tune and think ''I'll go and find that'', only to be deeply disappointed - it's Just Another Record. This applies to all different genres, but then, reviews *are* subjective, aren't they? I'm not complaining (oh, alright, I am) but it's interesting to see what other people think. Andrew
Re: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
I can understand where people are going with the dry productions but Pro-Tools and 'DIGITAL' music can sound really cool depending on how you produce it. Of course the typical prog-house, trance production has a cheap digial quality to it with clean effects and reverb but a good dj can mix a Paul Okenfold record or some pop dance record with an underground techno record and make it sound cool. on 2/3/03 9:59 AM, Andrew at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dennis, Ah, well I meant no offense. When he said it he seemed pretty amused, (I was talking to him about the possibility of mastering some of stuff, like thousands of others) and we both chuckled at the idea of just lathering in saturation, just for sake of sounding like ''whoever'' - it wasn't a Deep Chord release we talked about, I'd rather not name names.

It seems like so many releases are guilty of digitising the soul out of the music, which could be due to the tendency to over-compress, normalize every sample (or the stereo master), or to get the mastering guy to take all the dynamic range out of a track by pumping it beyond measure. Pro-Tools is a definite culprit in giving releases a homogenous 'sound', unless your careful. Also with the advent of units like the Finalizer, more people are pre-mastering, which only aggravates the problem. It all makes for cool peak-time stormers, but for music with a little ''soul'', it can be a problem, in my opinion. What's interesting is that hip hop guys manages to imbue their music with a lot of spirit and soul and funk, while at the same time using whatever effects they can to pump up the music and make it louder, which his maybe due to their original sound sources, but also their unwillingness to be trapped into quantization and program beats in a different way. So maybe dance guys need to stop using sound modules and Roland kit, and open the net sound-wise? I'm just intersted in people's opinions, I've been dying to talk about this with intelligent people for a while now, and I'm not interested in being ''right'' - just talking about it. thanks, Andrew

Re: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
I agree. These technologies can be used to good effect, it's just that I think they're (unwittingly) used to take away some grit and dynamic range which you often hear in more soulful stuff, particularly the best Detroit stuff. (Though by no means all Detroit stuff - I am not into lazy generalisations based on geography.) When you're using nice kit, it can be tempting to make it sound as loud and pumped as possible, and I guess that this is what I hear a lot when I go record shopping, just over-indulgence, coupled with a lack of innovation and/or musicality.

RE: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
I like this thread. But - I'd like to say that I think it's poss to take this preference for 'gritty realism' too far as much as the favouring of highly finessed productions: remember, the main reason producers emphasize the attack on everything is because they want them to stand out in a very competitive market for electronic dance music. Plus lo-fi productions are actually very difficult to handle on a very big system - I'd guess it would be easier in the mix just to throw on the latest New York drum track and let the worry stop there, till the next record, than trying to get some old classic, occupying 1 inch of dirty vinyl, to come off ...

RE: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
Well, you have to understand that there is a DEMAND for records with that pumped up sound, when most records are like this, records that are NOT tend to sound rather quiet and may unintentionally lower the energy. I guess I don't see anything wrong with making pumped up records if you are making them for club DJ's to play out in peak hour sets. A track made more for home listening or a deeper less aggresive set should probably not be made that way of course. Dance music does have a functional aspect, and I don't think one should say a record made for a peak hour type set can't still be good. The aesthetic of such records seems appropriate to their function... /dave -Original Message- From: Andrew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 8:47 AM To: 313@hyperreal.org Cc: spw Subject: Re: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight) I agree. These technologies can be used to good effect, it's just that I think they're (unwittingly) used to take away some grit and dynamic range which you often hear in more soulful stuff, particularly the best Detroit stuff. (Though by no means all Detroit stuff - I am not into lazy generalisations based on geography.) When you're using nice kit, it can be tempting to make it sound as loud and pumped as possible, and I guess that this is what I hear a lot when I go record shopping, just over-indulgence, coupled with a lack of innovation and/or musicality.

When he said it he seemed pretty amused, (I was talking to him about the possibility of mastering some of stuff, like thousands of others) and we both chuckled at the idea of just lathering in saturation, just for sake of sounding like ''whoever'' - it wasn't a Deep Chord release we talked about, I'd rather not name names. But I still think it's lame - it's like BC never happened. Anyway, the reason I posted was to hopefully spur a conversation about the total overproduction of music, which this thread had drifted on to. It seems like so many releases are guilty of digitising the soul out of the music, which could be due to the tendency to over-compress, normalize every sample (or the stereo master), or to get the mastering guy to take all the dynamic range out of a track by pumping it beyond measure. Pro-Tools is a definite culprit in giving releases a homogenous 'sound', unless your careful. Also with the advent of units like the Finalizer, more people are pre-mastering, which only aggravates the problem. It all makes for cool peak-time stormers, but for music with a little ''soul'', it can be a problem, in my opinion. What's interesting is that hip hop guys manages to imbue their music with a lot of spirit and soul and funk, while at the same time using whatever effects they can to pump up the music and make it louder, which his maybe due to their original sound sources, but also their unwillingness to be trapped into quantization and program beats in a different way. So maybe dance guys need to stop using sound modules and Roland kit, and open the net sound-wise? I'm just intersted in people's opinions, I've been dying to talk about this with intelligent people for a while now, and I'm not interested in being ''right'' - just talking about it. thanks, Andrew

Ha ha ha, well, this thread has certainly gone off on a right tangent, very funny. It's true that a lot DJs I hear in London could do with displaying a little bit of humour and ingenuity, rather than mixing one record into another, ad nauseum. I think this links in with what I originally meant with this thread, which was to get opinion about boring tunes which rely on the Pro-Tools factor to come off, rather than actual funk - and not just 'syncopation', actual REAL funk, displaying something different in their track.

I suppose I'll come out and say that the main culprits are supposed 'techno' and especially 'tech-house' records/DJs, I never fail to be bored to tears going through the new releases, and this probably mirrors a lot of list-members' experiences. The talk at the beginning about Suburban Knight's releases having that bit of grime in there made me think - what do I prefer? As Ken said at the start, too much grit is bad for club systems, and I guess what a lot of my favourites do is find a happy medium, between rough and smooth. I think a lot of disco records are an inspiration in this regard because they still sound massive next to todays recordings. I know the feeling when you play a track which you love, and you realise it has a great big wooly hum from 70Hz downwards, completely masking other elements in the track. Maybe the mixtape is the saviour of these kinds of mixes, where you can put more obscure, less 'well-produced' stuff on a mix. Am I stating the bleedin' obvious?

Re: (313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
Strangely enough I have been doing precisely this when I spin... I can't rememer the last time I spun a pure house or techno or tech-house or whatever set without throwing in at least a couple odd records - whether new wave, disco, funk, soul or even as some people have mentioned early rave classics like James Brown is Dead or O Fortuna even. The response I get tends to be pretty good but then again I am not playing at huge super clubs but at tiny little crappy bars where the people are into the music and not there for any other reason. I find that this keeps me interested in what I am doing and tends to keep the crowd a bit on their toes if they don't know whether to expect a techno record or Blondie next. Anyway I think I have started to do this in response to the mediocrity and same-ness of techno, tech-house, etc records that seem to have swamped the market over the past several years.

Re: (313) Suburban Knight
i've always loved house and techno for their minimalism--a few bits of roland equipment and a four track reel to reel. i find most contemporary tracks to be as overproduced as any bit of prog. house/trance. it's a challenge to spend any money when i go record shopping. instead, i've taken to re-editing older tracks and saving my money for final scratch. james Wibo Lammert: As to the Mastering: Those first 2 transmats of his sounds like sh*t. That Dark Energy doublepack sounds a whole lot better. Gotta disagree wth u for the first time old bean (let's not make a habit of this ;-) - My opinion is that 'Art of Stalking' along with many other seminal Detroit techno (which implies a particular period) benefitted, purposefully or not, from the ironic lack of the latest technology at all points of the production process. Those trax sound grimy, glitchy, scratchy and minimal, sometimes even the sequencing is a bit suspect. But somehow (I admit, I'm not sure how) often, all those elements came together to form an unmistable kind of human touch which proved there really was a ghost in the machine (called soul.) k
Re: (313) Suburban Knight
Gotta agree with you both - it's getting hard to find new releases that don't sound super slick - techno, house, what have you. Especially anything tagged tech-house. Blech. I like to hear some intrinsic errors in the music - it makes it sound like someone is actually behind the work.

(313) Over-production (WAS - Re: (313) Suburban Knight)
Dennis, Ah, well I meant no offense. When he said it he seemed pretty amused, (I was talking to him about the possibility of mastering some of stuff, like thousands of others) and we both chuckled at the idea of just lathering in saturation, just for sake of sounding like ''whoever'' - it wasn't a Deep Chord release we talked about, I'd rather not name names. But I still think it's lame - it's like BC never happened. Anyway, the reason I posted was to hopefully spur a conversation about the total overproduction of music, which this thread had drifted on to. It seems like so many releases are guilty of digitising the soul out of the music, which could be due to the tendency to over-compress, normalize every sample (or the stereo master), or to get the mastering guy to take all the dynamic range out of a track by pumping it beyond measure. Pro-Tools is a definite culprit in giving releases a homogenous 'sound', unless your careful. Also with the advent of units like the Finalizer, more people are pre-mastering, which only aggravates the problem. It all makes for cool peak-time stormers, but for music with a little ''soul'', it can be a problem, in my opinion. What's interesting is that hip hop guys manages to imbue their music with a lot of spirit and soul and funk, while at the same time using whatever effects they can to pump up the music and make it louder, which his maybe due to their original sound sources, but also their unwillingness to be trapped into quantization and program beats in a different way. So maybe dance guys need to stop using sound modules and Roland kit, and open the net sound-wise? I'm just intersted in people's opinions, I've been dying to talk about this with intelligent people for a while now, and I'm not interested in being ''right'' - just talking about it. thanks, Andrew - Original Message - From: Dennis Donohue [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Andrew' [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 313@hyperreal.org Sent: Monday, February 03, 2003 3:13 PM Subject: RE: (313) Suburban Knight Actually - Ron was just talking about one of these instances, and it was for Deepchord.

But I think I am still drunk so a rant is in order On Fri, 4 Oct 2002 01:52:58 +0200, D.E [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: The Navarre mixes of Suburban Knights Art of Stalking. So is this available on 12 ? ? I asked before and got no answer, this must mean it exists though.. This was released on FNAC. Memory is very rusty on this one, but I think it was 3 mixes plus original. Label artwork had a big silver Transmat logo. Release in around 93(?) r./

Correct me if I am wrong but that track isn't 'trhe art of stalking' it is the worlds... On the 1st orange pressing on transmat it is labelled up correctly.. On the second..(black w/silver shield) the labels are the othewr way around... Correct me if I am wrong... No, your right, or at least I think you are. I could never quite work it out myself. The remix 12 had 3 remixes and the original of the Art of Stalking. However the 3 remixes are mixes of the other track on the Transmat original. So either they put the wrong original track on the remix EP, or they called the remixes the wrong name, or Transmat got thier labels the wrong way round. Its all a bit confusing, maybe someone could ask JP and get the definitive answer. Stewart ___ Freeserve AnyTime, only £13.99 per month with one month's FREE trial!

Re: [313] suburban knight
I went to this.. not many people there... which was dissapointing... this club has excellent sound and set up for techno events. He played a very smooth technical set.. not one mess up. He played quite a mix of techno, electro, influencial german stuff, and some of the stuff i didn't really care for - kind of cheesy acid stuff. in any case it was a good set, he's one of my favorite skilled djs by far. dan ito [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/23/02 16:02 PM he is in lansing tonight at the temple. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [313] Suburban knight
I know it's sad, but I need to get a track ID from anyone listening! SK just played a track with a really wild, squelchy bassline - quite old sounding - before going into Summer Funk by Purveyors of Fine Funk which is playing now... does anyone know what that last track was? | -Original Message- | From: Colette Lewis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Sent: Friday, November 23, 2001 1:47 PM | To: 313 | Subject: [313] Suburban knight | | | Suburban Knight on www.groovetech.com | | 2pm - 4pm GMT Today (Friday 23rd Nov) | | - | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [313] suburban knight
Damn, I second this. Excellent gig, no glowsticks, whistles, or attitude. This was one of those events that make it all worthwhile. Plus he seems like a really down to earth guy which is good. Excellent supporting dj's too, not usually the case for a lot of internationals. I'm glad he didn't play the big gig the next day with laurent, josh wink, ritchie, plus some trance guys and a whole lotta other stuff. See him if you get the chance - it's almost worth it just to see him get on down whilst mixing. ;) Dave --- benny [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: saw his set last nite in perth, was absolutely blown away- starting a set with 'blue monday' is something youd think would be cool but never done in a tec/house nite, and i think the set just went up an up from there, i loved his expression whilst mixing, i think it just gave the nite something special - he was infectuos :)! anyway, just thought id post that up, quite possibly the best set ive heard this year- up amongst surgeon's, mills and mike bishop's code breaker set :) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [313] suburban knight
Was the big rave in Sydney or Perth? It was political reasons among promoters (or so I suspect) that meant that SK didn't play elsewhere, esp Melbourne, but I can't discuss those. It wasn't lack of interest but I suspect SK wasn't offered to interested parties, so that is the way it goes. internationals.

Re: [313] suburban knight
Yeah too bad he didn't make it to the other cities. I guarantee he would get a loving crowd here. I am glad he got a nice welcome but he deserves better. But then again it's just as well someone with no love for Detroit/UR didn't do it. Vote 1: DJs Not Trophies The one that Dave spoke of was in Perth yesterday, which SK was originally billed to perform at. It was called the Delirious Summer Festival. I didn't go. I did see SK on Sat. night though, he was havin a ball behind the decks, dancing and acknowledging the crowd (I love djs who do this) whilst playing an eclectic set of house mixed into electro, mixed into techno and back again to around 200 people (max). It was... well... interesting.
Re: [313] Suburban Knight
i saw him dj at tresor, berlin in july and i really enjoyed it. he had a cool record selection and played some more minimal kinda stuff along with some nice electro. i liked his mixing as well, he knew his records and was able to keep a flow during the whole set. btw, anyone who might be in zurich, switzerland at new year's eve, he will be spinning there at rohstofflager together with cari lekebusch from stockholm. peter - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 313@hyperreal.org Sent: Saturday, December 02, 2000 5:42 PM Subject: [313] Suburban Knight Don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but James Pennington (aka Surburban Knight as most of you are aware) is doing a DJ set tonight here in Perth and it will be quite an interesting one I'm sure. Just wondering if anyone who has seen hi DJ or live sets would like to comment. Apparently this is an Australian exclusive in the light of pulling out of a outdoor festival/gig tommorow featuring Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin, Josh Wink and a few others. I myself was hoping that he would do a set in a medium capacity venue instead of a huge (masses) gig, and voila he's going to do so.
