The extraordinary thing about Detroit techno is not just the music but the people. I usually do a practice mix once or twice a week and last night played Kano's "I'm Ready" in honor of Dan and remembering some of the other extraordinary people who have passed -- Ken Collier, Laura Gavoor. Aaron-Carl.
I saw Dan on the first day of the first DEMF, missed seeing him this year on Friday. He worked for the last 6 years at Organic -- one of the ironies is that when I joined 313 in 1995, hyperreal.org was living at Brian Behlendorf's desk at the original location of Organic in San Francisco. Dan was a gifted writer, as we all know. But even more importantly, he was a clear thinker and was able to locate where the real meaning is among a messy overlay of facts and suppositions. Like many of us he tried blogging a bit, and these short pieces give a bit of Dan's perceptive view of life... http://www.metromode.com/blogs/bloggers/dansicko0157.aspx A true friend of all of ours, and of Detroit. fh ----------------- >SO shocked over this ...
