in case some of you dont know of it yet, there is a napster-like file sharing service just for electronic music called soulseek (www.soulseek.org) lots of very very hard to find stuff on there. its PC only though. I found 3-4 speedy J live sets on there that just plain kick ass. also I found some future sound of london live shows on there. even thought fsol isnt detroit, its great great music and their live sets are known to be hard to find (because they dont think electronic music is suited for live performance)
I hope you all enjoy soulseek! I have. -Joe a shocking hobby is good, although i think most in the IDM scene over-looked it. have you heard public energy #1? that's speedy j's 1997 album 9his last for +8). that's where he first made the switch from clean smooth techno to the serious noise. (attention 313 guards: i know the 'ni go snix' 12" came out just before that). that album really changed my concept of what techno can be. there used to be a real audio set from speedy j at tribal gathering from the public energy tour (www.speedyj.org) but i don't think that's up anymore. shame since i saw him a few days later in amsterdam (still in the top 3 sets i've ever heard in my life!!!) ever since 'shoking hobby' he's gone more straight bangin' techno (electric deluxe or krake 12") you can find a few live pa's of that style on winmx or audiogalaxy. it's some of the best hard techno i've heard. shit, everything he does is 'the best' of that style. but i wish he would explore the broken distorted style from public energy #1/shocking hobby a bit more. what does everyone else think?
