(313) Bye List

2005-11-10 Thread cyborgk
Bye list... after about 6 years I've decided that 313 list isn't as useful to me in searching for music as it once was, and my own tastes in techno (ie., stuff like Surgeon, Autechre, Richard Devine, dark electro, and glitchy minimalism) seem to be diverging from what people on this list are into.

Not very music related, but this is a big issue on the global scale; this is the same reason why all these development zones that give huge incentives to corporations to build factories in third world countries never and up doing much for the countries themselves. The country doesn't get any taxes

Yes, exactly - people could, and people DO listen to random sounds as music. I live in the city and sometimes, the soundscape IS as satisfying as a record. Music is everywhere. Human produced music is only one sub-genre. Music is rhythm (time) + timbre (quality of vibration), perceived by an obser

There seems to be some confusion regarding "emotion" - are we talking about the listener's emotion, or the creator's emotion??? Both Larry Heard and Armando seem to think that the producer's of the music need to feel certain emotions to create good work. I don't buy it. Neither one have any idea w

I'm guessing he's not a big John Cage fan. Seriously, though I have great respect for Larry Heard as a producer, I have to disagree. A certain kind of feeling might define a GENRE, but it can never define all the possibilities available in the exploration of music as an art form. These fixed ideas

Also, I think the Rob Hood EP "Underestimated" has a track that opens with a swing bit before it goes into the usual minimal techno bidness. ~David > not sure if this is what you are talking about..but i have an Armando > album with a track on it called "Real Jazz" from the one world one fu

Okay, I'll bite. This sounds like it would be up my alley, but who is Arken? No mention on discogs. Any idea who this artist is, and if there are soundclips of this record anywhere? I keep hearing Sonar Kollective mentioned and I also have no idea what they are about. What's the scoop? Ah, gotta

(313) New Order v. TLC mashup

2005-09-08 Thread cyborgk
Hello all, I thought I'd lighten the mood by sharing a little mashup I recently made, New Order v. TLC "Blue Scrubs". It's not at all a straight up mashup though, actually more of a remix combining two different tracks. The genre, for lack of a better term, is electro-glitch. Page: http://www.noc

That explains why I can't find it! Must be nice to find something in the shops over there before it is even out... Anybody know of other releases in a similar vein to Bitstream - my preference going towards the electro tempo things that I can mix in when I'm playing out. ~David > Someone poaste

Yeah, because the world really needs more superstar DJ's --- ;) Isn't this a little backwards? Seems like quality music is what the world really needs. I'd cutting Derrick a little more slack if he pushed more abstract and cutting edge techno in his sets, as opposed to cheesy latin house anthems o

Anybody know where I can get this, or what online shops carry Touchin' Bass??? I just tried PlanetX in the US, and Juno and Nuloop. None of them have this. And as you might expect, I'd really prefer to order it in the US, but maybe that is asking too much. I need to get that Bitstream Domestic Ec

Hi, if any of you in Chicago want to hear what I do live, this is your chance. It also worked out that Kero is going to be in Chicago, so this should be a really fun little event. Since the event is early, you can easily leave around midnight and catch Derek Plaslaiko at Tini Martini. The theme

Well, sure you can go farther back, but eleven years ago is a fairly large timespan... I'm 30, so I was 19-20, but today's 21 year old club kid would have only been 10!!! Does that make you feel any older? ;) Please don't tell me you remember the original Chicago track coming out... ~David > >
