those guys were bonkers! real innovators. making record decks so they could mix, making effects units, playing things at the wrong speeds so they sounded sooo different etc. Mental. dj booths that moved on lifts so they could access dancefloors on different levels of the club, it goes on, I was gobsmacked. I am presuming (perhaps wrongly I suppose), that some of the bigger name US dj's of the early '80's must have (possibly indirectly) heard/known about these guys in Italy. The similarities are there anyway. and, someone, somewhere must have started importing european records in to the US (so where did they hear them first?), therefore for the dj's to play, therefore influencing our favourite artists? (or some of them). I presume. I could of course be horribly wrong. Maybe when the US guys get out of bed, one of them might pop up and tell me I'm talking a load of bobbins. p.s. thanks for the link!!!!!! _________________________________________________________________ --------------------- End of message text -------------------- This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers.
