Dan is still around popping in and out of the local music scene
here in Toronto. He performed live a couple of months ago at an event
with some sweet music, not sure if any of it had been released before,
but he's still at it.
Last I talked to him, he's getting his studio back together
Forget the Pope!!!
Imagine the Ultimate Power Richie and Tony Robbins would have if they
worked together and threw an event... or even better... started a
Tour. They could help ppl achieve their peak performance AND save the
planet. Actually... now that I think of it... that would be
I had a chance to catch Theo here in Toronto... he played a great set
and closed the room somewhere around 6am. As he was packing up I took
the time to ask him if he'd let me interview him. The results are as
follows on my blog.

I was a little star struck
I posted the remaining 2 interviews from time in DEMF online. Thought
you guys might appreciate them. Over the course of the day I not only
interviewed Aaron Carl but also dj Di'jital and Anthony shake
Shakir... It was a manic day of promoting my zine
(http://www.Assembler.TV) and
Vergel, all around. I watched a bunch of the episodes.
I especially like the Sprockets-esque intro music!
While at DEMF this year I had the opportunity to pull Aaron Carl away
from his kiosk and have a brief interview with him. I'm always
curious to know what songs inspire artists I appreciate, partly
because I'll go looking for that track, and partly because I think

For those who don't know, I do a podcast and write a magazine called
Assembler Techno Fanzine.

I also did an audio interview with Mike Huckaby: http://www.lx7.ca/?q=node/336

When I started this I had no idea where it would go. In fact all I
wanted to do was have an excuse to regularly work in the studio and
share the results with people who might find it interesting. Now here
we are 1 year later and the best songs from the show are now together
on an album. It
I've compiled 7 tracks I've made over the years into a free release
for download. It's mimimal techno / techhouse. Early reviews have
tried to class it as lounge techno. But if you ask me, it's all
straight up Detroit, but on the more chilled out side.

I performed a LivePA in Detroit for new years at Forans Irish Pub...
If you've ever been to DEMF and needed to escape the heat/rain/people

Response to my performance at the show was really positive so when I
got back after new
I agree... alot of those early tunes were rave'y because they were
knockoffs from the industrial that was being produced at that time...
KMFDM and Thrill Kill Kult were big with my goth friends. and a couple
of them got into the whole rave scene strictly on that alone...
I don't know if
Part of why I had Don on the show, is just that... to remember why it
was worth doing in the first place. When I started the Lx7 podcast I
thought it would be fun to share tracks... but some of my
listeners/viewers asked me if I would do a history of Techno show or
anything like that.
I don't know if you guys would be interested in hearing a couple of
stories from one of Toronto rave personalities, but I had Don Berns
(Dr. Trance) in the studio for an interview. We talked about some of
the early raves in toronto (around 1991) and what got us into this
whole rave culture.
Hi guys,
I mostly lurk on here but I've got a label question that I'm hoping
someone could help me with. So before you guys suggest the obvious

Did another video podcast that I thought some of the ppl on the list might
get a kick out of. I recently picked up a copy of Serato and thought it
would be fun to try mixing some of my own tracks... lets just say it's
been way more fun then I expected.
Either way, give the video a peek if

I have a techno podcast that i do every other week. It's been growing
pretty well. But was wondering if anyone else on the 313 could suggest
other regularly posted podcasts that are techno related. I'm not talking
about mix shows where ppl play dj mixes etc. but rather shows with ppl
