oh wait...are we 313ers still supposed to hate Trance? oops! I forgot that
"trance" was supposed to be taboo. a few weeks ago I was at a Dollar Store
and as I was checking out there was a CD display near the register. as I
spun through the terrible selection I came across a double CD compilation on
Rising High Records called "The Secret Life of Trance". it included tracks
by Timo Mass and Jam & Spoon and it was only one dollar...so I bought it. I
figured it would be good for a laugh or two. so while cleaning house the
other day I decided to put it on and give it a listen before throwing it
away, but ended up listening to it straight through. it's actually quite
good! (?) I apologize, guys. it was an accident and it only happened once. I
swear! I feel so dirty. but at least it wasnt "electro clash"! :)

oh and regarding movement: maybe it's time to take it off of life support?
it's already made history and has it's place in our hearts forever. why not
just let it go? Keeping a "version" of it alive artificially or in an
altered form would do nothing but tarnish the fond memories of what it once
was. Have you ever had your favorite danceclub/party/event outlive it's
natural lifespan? it gets pretty sad at the end. examples: Lollaplooza?
Motor Lounge? The Limelight? Ministry Of Sound?

DEMF: Do Not Resuscitate

I have nothing against the DEMF/Movement festival or it's organizers. I
performed at the very first (where I was paid quite handsomely) and what may
turn out to be the very last one (where I performed for absolutely free) and
would gladly do it again if they needed me to, but if the only way to keep
it going is to make it an "Area One" monster rock show, then it's time to
let it rest in peace and take it's rightful place as a part of the history
of Detroit Techno.
