Re: [313] Jeff Mills and song id Green Velvet
Curtis is a top producer with a real quirkyness to the sound, we cannot all be too serious. I think Rush owes a bit to him. I think he is a better producer as his DJing leaves a little to be desired; mainly because he is always so plastered. I am off to see him this Friday with Ben Sims. He is performing as Cajmere doing a techno set. Could someone please tell me whether I was rightin think that when he used to perform as Caj was when he was playing his Cajual sound because now I am being told different? I'm sure I am right. Tats.

cajmere (out) used to equal the cajual sound - you are correct. 4-5 years ago, that is.

RE: [313] Jeff Mills and song id Green Velvet
Cajmere is his DJ name and Green Velvet is the live name. that is the way i always understood it. and Green Velvet still performs live with his band of Idiots. still doesn't change the fact that his name is curtis jones -Original Message- From: scott mcgill [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2001 6:04 PM To: 313@hyperreal.org; Robin Crampton Subject: Re: [313] Jeff Mills and song id Green Velvet Curtis is a top producer with a real quirkyness to the sound, we cannot all be too serious.

No, I have seen him many times over the years Djing as Green Velvet.

:::No, I have seen him many times over the years Djing as Green Velvet. :::It's a recent change the way I understand it. I Thought that : Cajmere = house (ie brighter days etc) Green Velvet = Techno/tech house (ie stalker/preacher man) mind you having said that perculator is still very gv sounding and i think he released that as cajmere so i might shut up now but i'm still waiting to see him in any guise :( andrew
RE: [313] Jeff Mills and song id Green Velvet
I think he made the switch to Cajmere for most dj gigs house and/or techno when he closed the doors on Cajual and used Green Velvet for live PA's. I recently purchased a mix cd by him on Under the Cajmere alias that is straight up techno. All of the stuff is quirky minimal Steve Rachmad / Rotation imprint sort of stuff. Past couple of live sets he has done down south were under the Velvet alias. dK -Original Message- From: Andrew Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2001 10:18 PM To: Subject: RE: [313] Jeff Mills and song id Green Velvet :::No, I have seen him many times over the years Djing as Green Velvet. :::It's a recent change the way I understand it.

From what I've read in interviews, it's Cajmere for the housier side of things and Green Velvet for the techno side of things. out, dave. _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
