RE: (313) Booooooo!!!!!
I always thought (and believed) that house/techno was about respect for everyone/everybody despite who he/she is and the things he/she likes (even UR preaches that) but @ this moment I do get the feeling that this list is turning a bit into 'we only like what we like here and every other thing, stepping outside what the list likes deserves a bashing' . Mathew Dear is an artist and should be respected in that way, just like he respects his fellow-artists and producers and just like artisits/dj's we like on this list respect their fellow-artists. Off course u don't have to like all the style of music they make but just respect the fact that they try to be creative and provide music for peeps to listen and dance to...u don't 'have to go out and see Mathew Dear (or others) if u don't want to! But the fact that there's thousands of people out there who really like his stuff must make him doing something right and again u don't have to like him or his scene or his music but I thought this was a global-313-list where everything could be discussed in an open way, even hipster-things:-) The lack of respect towards dj's/musicians/producers who operate outside the likings of this list have turned into some sort of bitterness on the list which do not go with my visions or believes about dance/house/techno or whatever u wanna call it... It thought it was about being open-minded and of course u can have debate about music and what u like/don't like but it's turning into a bit of narrow-minded thing around here. I n-joyed around here having conversations around here with peeps from around the globe about a lot of differenet styles of music and things happening in the world but it seems not possible anymore.

I'm still confused about those who insist on pinning the phrase 'hipster' on someone else while the former are obviously insisting they represent true 'hip.'

Re: (313) Booooooo!!!!!
Good one Jeff. I am always saddened when people leave the list because of some perceived change in tone. On the other hand, despite my long standing affection for it and the people who subscribe, it is just a list. Unsubbing in protest means you no longer have a voice in whatever debate is raging. As for the original purpose of this thread. Stealing someone's hard drive is a loser move, even if it's backed up, even if it only costs $100 to get another one. And Mat Johnson is a good guy, and a decent producer, and doesn't deserve to be slagged on this list. When I was a kid my mom always said the same thing whenever someone said I HATE X -- usually something like liver or broccoli. She said please say 'I don't care for X' instead. Maybe that's a little pollyannish, but why be so negative, when it doesn't serve any useful purpose? And another thing -- Bryan Kasenic has been putting on events for a long time, long enough to have been in and out and in and out again with the fickie hipsters of Brooklyn. The Bunker events are inexpensive, and feature a mix of interesting locals and internationally known artists. Full disclosure: I have played a couple times back when his shows were at Halcyon. And lastly, I blame Plaslaiko for distracting Mat -- how can you protect your hard drive with that nutter dancing around and gurning next to you. The man is a menace!

Even though i had everything on a backup it just feels horrible. No one deserves to get their harddrive stolen (well unless if it was stolen in the first place ;-)), if you do think so you have a serious attitude problem...

I thought the photos were funny. apparently no one has a sense of humor. When I had a hard drive lost / stolen / missing from a gig here in NYC about a year ago, I was like, oh well, f*ck it. Brooklyn Vegan and the 20,000 MD fans didn't come to the rescue, or bring justice to it either. Would be nice to have it.. but I knew I should have it backed up as well. Losing things sucks, I agree, but it's also part of the job - can't really say that security for DJs is a priority at most venues I've been to. +odd -- On Apr 11, 2008, at 5:42 AM, Martijn de Blaauw wrote: Check and yes unfortunately, if it would happen to Claude Young, Theo Parrish or UR this list would have screamed fire and would have gone after the peeps who did this themselves...

What's nearly as pathetic are the idiots who turn it into a vinyl vs. digital culture war or simply think it's a hoot. One wonders how they might feel if someone helped himself to their belongings. If that's what being 'hipster' is all about, the 'scene' deserves to collapse. jeff
