Great recommendations all around! Glad to read all of the talk about Strand. They don't really miss.
Suburban Knight's rework of Prince's Erotic City, Derotic City is pretty fun to my ears: https://detroittechno.bandcamp.com/album/listening-systems Also like the sound of Mike Schommer's brand new one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9nzY22thQY Stumbled upon this MM mix from a few years ago the other day that I didn't know existed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c04U4MY6lVg It is a longer version of a similar track on the digital version of Taken Away. And have also really been enjoying Brian Kage's stuff lately: https://michigandermusic.bandcamp.com/ His productions vary a lot in terms of style which I like. He has also done a lot with Luke Hess as Reference, Omar S and has been mastering quite a few Detroit records as of late including those from Norm Talley and Delano Smith. ________________________________ From: Tristan Watkins <phonop...@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2021 5:45 PM To: d...@metrecs.com <d...@metrecs.com> Cc: 313 <313@hyperreal.org> Subject: Re: New 313-relevant stuff I'm by no means an authority on Strand, but they had a release on Frictional and one of those tracks "Zephyr" was also on the True People comp as Kech and B. Bonds back in the day. That was my intro to them in any case. It looks like Brian Bonds was replaced by Brian Boyer along the way.

OK, at the risk of sounding out of touch...who is Strand...? it says that they are from Detroit and have been at it since 91..I have the Strand releases on Delsin but I didn't realize they were from Detroit... seems like we are again reaching back to the past to find the future....time isn't linear anyway, so....OK... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: New 313-relevant stuff From: Tristan Watkins <phonop...@gmail.com<mailto:phonop...@gmail.com>> Date: Mon, May 10, 2021 2:01 pm To: 313 <313@hyperreal.org<mailto:313@hyperreal.org>> Yooooo. A couple of (313) things I thought people would want to know about. New Strand https://strand313.bandcamp.com/album/silicon Newish Russ Gabriel on Ferox. https://russgabriel.bandcamp.com/album/off-centre. I like his other recent stuff, but this is back on top form for me. Like he is drifting somewhere in between his '00s less techy output (of which I am a huge admirer) and the recent return to techno. Some Nuron releases I'd missed. https://nuron.bandcamp.com/music. There is also a new 2x12" Likemind reissue that I need to pick up before it goes https://www.rubadub.co.uk/records/likemind-06. Placid Angels - Touch the Sky https://figure-music.bandcamp.com/album/touch-the-earth (note, for some reason the digital release is priced much higher at Bandcamp than other stores for some reason I am struggling to fathom). Kyle Hall's MPC Dreams https://kylehall.bandcamp.com/album/mpc-dreams Urban Tribe reissue (which is incredible) https://urbantribe.bandcamp.com/album/urban-tribe Loads of other great stuff about presently, but this was the topical stuff I don't think I've seen mentioned.
