(313) Actual Detroit techno

So I've been seriously digging the Mills Sleeper Wakes and The Power albums lately. Probably going to pick up the others in the series too. Really, really on-form. Not news obviously, but easy to overlook I suppose. Also like Nighttime World Volume 3: Motor a lot! Worthy of the Nighttime World

I went to see jeff mills do his thing about a couple of months ago at cable in London and the music he played was great. It was as if he was DJing stems of sounds together and kind of doing a live set together with the 909. At times ambient and sci-fi and at times banging techno. The blend

yep, the messenger/sleeper wakes was sick live. really disorienting to watch him doing it all kneeling on the ground, though, since I couldn't see the stage setup at first when he performed this year at Metropolis in Montreal. On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 4:18 PM, Carlos Boix carlosb...@gmail.com

Yep, his recent live/dj sets have been amazing by all accounts. He's also released a lesser known mini album, Niteroi, that was, and still might be available at the Axis web shop, bundled with a concept tshirt. Stylistically it's a nice blend between his more recent stuff and Every Dog Has
