Re: [313] Best post ever
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.

This needs a repost. :) Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2001 12:33:23 -0700 (PDT) From: Totally 2 Step <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 313@hyperreal.org Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 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.

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.

C. Anything that ever came out of Lance Mcgannon's mouth. Where is the Lance-bot anyway?? D.

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.
