Unfortunately, I hear very little 313 type music in Chicago. What techno there
is here, usually is not of the deeper or 313 oriented variety.
So, as a Chicago resident, it doesn't surprise me at all that Shake hasn't
played here. It may be that Chicago DJ's are too territorial, or that the
house/techno divide has grown too big, or that in booking out of town artists
only "big names" are considered, but I just rarely see any of the Detroit
locals who are great coming into Chicago to spin. Though lately I've noticed
some slight improvement, in fact there seems to be a slight upswing of techno
events generally.
Now what we really need is a Chicago UR night, that would be so hot if some UR
crew would do a show here... we're so geographically close!
