The funny thing about this, is I live in PORTLAND, OR. And the Detroit
Techno thing was reaching HERE in 87/88/89. I remember when the records
were coming into OOZE where I was working at the time. So it's good to
know that little old Portland, OR was ahead of NY... I'd say he was
sleeping... if he wasn't noticing what was happening.

Frankie noticed; he never sleeps.
Portland was very fortunate: there weren't
many record stores as good as Ooze, back
then, anywhere in the US. Tiny place,
filled to the gills with goodness/weirdness. Charles
is amazing: on top of all sorts of music. Anal Solvent!!! ;)
O-zone is a very worthwhile successor. That used
place across the street on Burnside has good stuff, too.
Also, P.Ore had Reese Pursell working at 2nd St; he did tons for
electronic dance music in P.Ore. Any idea where Reese is today?
He left Astralwerks sometime ago.
