I was at Oberlin for one year with Morgan. Kym and Dave of the now-defunct Spelunk Records were also there at the time. They now spin electro in and around NYC and I'm sure they are still producing though I don't know that they have released anything recently. There were actually a bunch of g

yeah i know lots of people who still prefer morgan's earlier techno stuff..i like it as much as anything else he's done. that some producers could've made a career out of; unfortunately, except for some of the other Environ material, it looks to have been a bit of a one-off. Maybe I'm just a

Yeah the driving memoirs is really nice ... but I'm talking about the old school cassette releases from way before Morgan had any records out ... There's something really haunting and affecting about this music. Metro Area is much more for the dancefloor, that explores where disco was heading befo

I don't know which tracks you're talking about, but his Clear LP from 1997 (The Driving Memoirs) is an absolute masterpiece in my book, though very much in the minimalist, jazzy vein described (dismissed? ;> ) below. There are so many great ideas on that album, at least three or four per track, th

Morgan used to be one of that huge cadre of net-kiddies who made tracks. I can't find the cassette from 1995/96 -- a net compilation -- that morgan had a track on... what I remember about it was that it sounded a lot like early Todd Sines, another guy just starting out in Ohio at the time ... It w

Hmm... I read it a little differently. I thought he was just saying that he isn't feeling the current techno output, not that he's not influenced by techno at all. i think that's much more accurate!! of course morgan used to make techno so of course its an influence just not as strong as it use

Not that unusual though. Between producing techno, performing it, DJ'ing, and listening to other DJs while you're waiting to get paid, I think many producers get their fill and look elsewhere for leisure listening. I've heard this from more than one techno producer. Jazz is popular, as is classic
