The guys from Calme records do parties called "Play" in various
locations and "blip n beat" @ Batofar.
Some other parties called Technorama @ batofar program nice detroit djs.
Since I am back in Toulouse for some years now i dont really know if
these parties are good, but at lest they promote good artists.
Rex has a constant quality programaation by the way ... I was there at
their 15 th b-day in 2003 (the Kanzleramt, the UR, and the Garnier
parties) and it was something HUGE !! Specially this "Amazon" live
version Mad Mike did, and now Garnier plays all the time ...

That's totally right, the so called "electro" is omnipresent around here.
But you can still find some very interesting 313 related parties sometimes.
I've missed DJ Bone on August 25th, and this party "R.U. Detroit ?" with you
Fabrice.
Hmm, i do regret it...cause i have very good memories of your set for the
'Paradise Massage' party on May 2002 with Titonton Duvanté.
That's gonna be for the next time :)

hi Matt ;-)
I played last week at "Tryptique" a concert room for all kind of indie
music...The party was Called "R.U Detroit ?"....and it was packed, all the
Detroit fans from Paris, was one of the best party I experienced in Paris.
Really nice crowd ! I really enjoyed myself. Always funny to see the
people
reacting on the first note of a classic as well as on a new good track...I
think Paris is into Minimal and Electro pop/rock music for few years
now...and its hard to find some other kind of music...I mean a different
party, different music but packed...

What else is going on in Paris these days, is there much good techno
about?
I only ever hear about nights at Rex and very occasional ones at Nouveau
Casino - are there many less obvious nights happening as well?
In fact, what's happening in the French scene generally at the moment,
anything secret and interesting we don't hear about?!

I remember Laurent performed at a party here in the wrong
neighborhood where some shadiness went down. A small crew of 'agents
of darkness' strolled in with their concealed weapons. Some gunfire
took place and maybe someone actually got shot. Fuzzy memories where
I think someone was wounded, but nothing serious.
I also remember Sonar 1999 when Rich, Jeff Mills, and Laurnet Garnier
were all riding bumper cars together--with much
'bloodthirstiness'. That was definitely surreal.

Laurent Guarnier started coming to Detroit a long time ago, and is a
huge fan of detroit techno. Bone has great stories about Laurent
DJ'ing without monitors at sketchy Detroit parties back then. And as
for Aretha and Iggy, why wouldn't he know about them?
I'm from Iowa, so I don't think I can judge who's 'Detroit' enough,
any more than, say, a guy from Brazil. I do know that whether you
like Laurent's music or not -- and he's hit or miss for me -- his
hearts in the right place. Tremendously fun DJ to see, because no
one
in the room is having more fun than him.

Funny this CD1 is supposed to be a "History of Detroit" which kind
of
puzzles me: If it is a "History of Detroit" Techno, then what are
Stooges or Aretha doing there??? (dont say they were D. May
inspirations, pls!); Or if it is a Musical "History of Detroit"
(which
then explains why Stooges, Aretha and Temptations are listed), then
what
does Mr. Garnier know about it? Either way, this CD obviously does
not
represent Detroit musical heritage.
