yeah that's not how i read "chicago's take on techno" either. i don't
do any chicago clubbing, but i know enough about the sound of chicago
(historically) to know that that mix doesn't sound anything like it
came from chicago.

I certainly didn't mean to kick the beehive with that post. I've
known Mani for going on 10 years, and he gave me a link to that mix,
and I listened to it, and I didn't like it all, but it reminded me of
sets I've heard in Chicago. That's all.
And no it's not Detroit Techno. I mentioned it becaus
I misinterpreted it as in it was a mix of chicago techno, as opposed to
someone who plays 'techno' out in chicago...
ive only been clubbing in chitown once, and that was back in 96

Either I am astronomically unlucky or Placid & Mr. Glazer don't really
do much Chicago clubbing. Well, I don't really do much either, but
enough to get the point.

Yeah, to be brutally honest and/or play devil's advocate, I'm somewhat
in agreement with Michael. I don't utterly dislike it, mind you. Just
saying once there was money involved, it got really homogenized. This
is true of the live scene too. I'm in no way blaming or faulting Mani,

WBMX ERA is what I think of when I think of chicago, and that was 20
years ago :) Chicago is a wonderful place but the sound has always
been more pop than the Detroit sound, I speculate that it is because
there is more money to be made off of the "club" scene in Chicago than
Detroit.

Gosh Michael, tell us how you really feel! I kind of liked the mix
from the standpoint that it was different than I usually hear, the
difference being accessibility. But I can certainly see this not
being to everyone's taste.
That Deadmau5 + Kaskade "I Remember" track is my new guilty pleasure.
Mani Giglani was one of the techno buyers at Gramaphone Records in the
latter half of the 90s, and I'm sure many of you met him in that
capacity, or at parties in the City. He just posted up a new techno
mix -- his first since 2004. Link and track listing at
