Hello all. I have a certain question concerning a certain record I
purchased a couple of months ago. The label simply reads 'Confuser' and
bears the names Tobias & Marco. For the longest time I had no inkling as to
what the origin of this album truly was. As serendipity would have it, I

Two things on this beautiful cool summer morn:
1) Is Drexciya's 'Vampire Island' available on vinyl? It's by far my
favorite track on The Quest, but I notice it's tagged by the word
'unreleased.'
2) Last night I was listening to the Kevin Saunderson 'Faces and Phases'
double CD while ironin

Here's a quick but very subjective question. Yesterday my best friend
communicated to me a desire to pick up his first Jeff Mills CD. He lives in
West Hollywood, blocks away from Amoeba Records, which he says carries an
extensive collection. I didn't know what to tell him, since my focus

Now, it's been a while since I've seen the docu-flick, but I do remember
being left a bit cold by it. I was hoping for more of a broader
perspective, one which would relate the unique instrument to the slowly

OK, here's the problem when it comes to discussing the race issue in techno
music (or any artform, for that matter). The whole debate is a catch 22.
It goes like this:
Racial injustice stems from an awareness of the differences in superficial
physical characteristics (i.e. skin color) and th

definitely not funky. I don't think that was the intention. I believed
Kraftwerk's intentions to be more cerebral and conceptual in nature than

I am curious as to who owns and/or administers these two websites:
klubradio and undergroundcommittee. This is purely for my own personal
knowledge, for I've recently become aware of these sites as the wonderful

I just couldn't withhold my opinion from the ongoing Mills debate. It is a
topic I have reflected upon most recently after receiving 'Metropolis' for
Christmas and after reading various online interviews with the prodigious

Why is it that seemingly innocuous inquiries sent to this list invariably
lead to embittered polemics? I remember when this particular strain began
with a simple question on my part as to the general opinions circulating on
Mr. Hawtin's newest creation. Then came the inevitable Richie bashing.
So what's the consensus floating around thus far concerning the new Richie

paycheck in months (fingers crossed it doesn't get held up somewhere in the

Hey everybody,
I have now reached the important-life-decisions time of my existence.
Graduation will be upon me in a couple short weeks. What next, I've been
