Re: [313] House / techno popularity

2002-03-02 Thread Michael D Tyrer
4give me - i dont mean to be offensive but this is so anal - why does it
have to be a stigma to be black or homosexual or a woman or what : its been
said before there have been untold successful black gay lesbian vegan
christian people who were so successful and there's no doubt there's even
been 1 or 2 whites who've been stigmatized - i blame the catholic church 4
that, but then there's been one or two people who've been educated or cared
for or loved and maybe you'd blame the RCs for that too.
Isnt the aim to try and essentially on the whole respect and love one
another
and getta hear some ace propa techno music whilst your at it
and we have some super stars and we should respect that.

 Speaking of house music - is there any email lists like this one (well
 maybe not like this one) that discusses house music? I have yet to run
into
 one - not talking tech-house but real house music? I'd be interested in
 seeing some discussions about gay black men and lesbian women in the music
 industry and their problems with not only being black but being homosexual
 as well - double stigma. Maybe someone would like to address this issue as
 well?

Well, at one point Blaze were signed to Motown, but I don't know why
that didn't take off as it should have. 

All I know is that as a contender for best house/garage track ever,
'Elevation' is pretty hard to beat.

;) but isn't the CD buying public predominated by females  I've not met 
t many girls/women WHO don't like to dance, hence Brittany's, N-Sync's, 
ad nauseam's success--the LCD versions, of course.


Janet Jackson gripped hip-house rhythms and will continue (I think) to put 
out dance singles with each and every new project...that has been the route 
of her success and charting.


Why hasn't Blaze been doggedly pursued to produce summa her sh*t??  I 
think dose boyz are simply ab-fab from bof an undaground and commercial 
perspective...and guess what...their sound/style is unique.  Who woulda 
thunk??

Incidentally, I always had a personal fantasy about Blaze becoming R+B 
hits, with guest vocalists like Mary J Blige. I still think it could 
happen.
