Re: [313] Thomas Brinkmann new CD

 Also, does anyone have tracklistings for the upcoming
 Jedi Knights CD retrospective (hope it has some old
 EV/SYM stuff, don't you?) and the new Moodymann CD?

I've heard the Moodymann CD's more of a retrospective. Apparently it's got
one of the promo tracks from the Peacefrog album, for example. There are, I
hear, 4 new tracks on it (only 2 on the vinyl, goddamn it), as well.

Whilst on the Moodymann topic, does anyone know if he is playing anywhere
other than Home in London this weekend? It's Notting Hill Carnival weekend
and he played at a fantastic party (featuring him, Theo Parrish - he rocked
it, Rick Wilhite  4 Hero) there 2 years ago; is anything similar due this
time? I'm not risking Home, because he probably won't turn up, it's too
expensive and, I just can't quite bring myself to do it...

Jonny.

P.S. Cheers for the feedback for my Detroit compilation tape. I'll email a
track listing to all those who requested it. Now I just have to get a copy
of that Dorothy Ashby LP...

Per Matt's Moodymann mix cd comment about tracks being under 3 minutes etc.:

Unfortunately when making compilations very few labels want just 3 minutes of a
track to be on the cd.  Most mixed cd compilations from labels (read: the label
has asked the artist to mix the tracks for a compilation example: Miguel Migs
for Naked Music, or David Alvarado for Guidance, or Nick Holder etc.) will
showcase the tracks and not the artist mixing them.  This means that the tracks
are usually full length, and mixed into and out of quickly (ie 30 second mixes
are usually considered long mixes).  The best mix compilations are done by
artists (not labels, ie Laurent Garnier Laboratoire Mixes) or magazines
(Mixmag) where the labels aren't really involved.

This confirms for me why so many mix CDs out there are so dull.
Most are label funded and focusing on tracks, but when there's so much 
that a DJ can add to the mix, why waste the opportunity?
Let's face it, these tracks are for the hugely greater part made to 
be mixed with, just wish labels were prepared to take more chances and 
stick their necks out with some flash cut and paste mixing action!
Bring on the Derrick May mix cd.

I was on about his LP on KDJ (due out in UK in November). Is there a mix CD?

this is about a Moodymann mixed CD or does he have a new CD?

Peace,

has somebody heard his LP?

and by the way, I know this has been mentioned before but, could someone turn 
me on to a good source for Detroit music. I am in the United States and I'm 
interested in stuff that may not come out over here.


thank you so much,
