that is overlooked is that mix shows had a big impact in

Everyone wants a single source for everything in their origin

I know John Howard pretty well. He normally plays very jazzy house,
pretty swinging stuff.
John has also been sometime columnist for XLR8R magazine.

, with as many different records as are out there, I see no
reason at all to hold back, in fact, my idea is you want to promote the good
records so that people will raise their expectaions generally for what gets
played :)

Detroit, seeing that.
Something happened in the 1980s, bad as they were, to bond people
together or at least those willing to open the doors a bit.
Didn't see much of that feeling at the DEMF, which was its own other
quite wonderful thing. But one leads to the other, in a way.

I think +10 or even +12 would work for turntables that have been

So, I have a suggestion.
Let's stop talking about other people's personal lives, let's stop talking
about the motivations for talking about other people's personal lives,
and let's remember some wise advice a friend of mine gave me:
Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.
phred
some random walking-around person stating things about
YOUR personal affairs to a public forum, no matter what it was or
what the context was?
This is a matter of respect and privacy.
All the rest is fronting.

is that this doesn't work too well and, sadly, Jeff's
other idea is better. Unfortunately it's very hard to find
replacement copies even of fairly popular older tracks.

I'm getting closer to deciding on going... Any others? Caravan from
Detroit, anyone?
The cheapest flights seem to require leaving on Christmas, which is
fine with me. I could see a week in the UK, maybe go north for a couple
days...

I ordered tickets, so that means I probably have to go...!
Actually, I was thinking about a UK holiday over Christmas anyway.

It's a good record -- but does it spin from the center out like the

Fred
wasn't convinced by the astounding turnout
and support for the DEMF -- after it had sidetracked the permits for months
on end -- then I don't know what will. Detroit is a city ready to step
forward again, but will the politicians and business leaders let it?

story can never be complete.

And don't forget Visions of Music on Serious Grooves, my favorite
Santonio track and the one most responsible for dragging me into the
Detroit music orbit.

You know, it's one thing to act stupidly in public on a list like

I have a simple rule when dealing with someone online who is doing an

Paul Johnson's 2 AM Music ep (Dance Mania 124) is definitely deep

He's a very talented producer, lots of good tracks in various subgenres.

I've seen Derrick Carter plays lots of times, and his style varies by

he'll play hard as nails because that's about all they want.

Just exactly the right thing, at the right time, from the right guy, Chuck D:
The last straw was the CD period, when labels increased
their markup without raising artists' royalties in kind. At the
same time, record companies created the concept of a
disposable artist; with jacked-up

a little while :)

Finally, when all someone can say is fuck this and fuck that, then

It's a good record. I played it at the 313 party, of course. (Had to,

The only thing for sure if Sony or EMI took over Bertelsmann/BMG is
that quite a lot of roster bands, producers, authors and others from
both companies would be made redundant (as the Brits say). Every
single other such merger has been followed by a reduction in the
artist roster of both labels
