Re: [313] Isn't this all just about a party???

2001-03-12 Thread george . jones
I've had more than a few people ask me "dood!...what was that track you
were just playing?" I have no problem showing them the record or telling
them. What could you possibly gain by keeping your records a secret and not
telling folks what you're playing? I mean, other than gaining a rep for
being an ass? What does it hurt to tell someone what they were listening
to?

Whoa!!!

I think this 'label' discussion is a perfect example of how crazy this
whole
DJ thing has gotten in the past 5 or so years...  Not to ruin the fun for
anybody, but a DJ's set is not really a religious experience, it mainly is
not a piece of artistic expression, it is just some good records being
played to keep the party flowing, and that's what's it's been since it's
beginning in detroit  (think of what was being played at the prep scene
parties, hardly stuff that was unknown or secretive)...  As far as mixing
and all that stuff, it's really just a way to keep the floor moving and the
party jumping, not necessarily as a way to show how 'good' or 'talented'
you
are...  Anyone can spin records with enough practice...  There is
innovation
on the decks, but most everything has been done before, and with enough
practice can be done by anybody... The best DJ's just rock the party
IMHO...

How this relates to the 'taking off labels' discussion is this...  If you
feel the need to take off your labels, go ahead...  But you're being a
complete prick...  Crap like this ticks me off...  like "I'm so cool I
don't
want anyone to know what records I'm playing"...  This is music & ideas
something that should be shared with everyone, and anyone...  I saw Derrick
May in Connecticut a few months back and it was the first time I heard the
"Force" record by Technasia...  I had to find out what record it was, so I
waited for an appropriate time after his set, and asked him what that 5th
or
so record he played was with the white jacket...  And he was more than nice
about flipping through his records (he truly didn't know what he had played
as was mentioned earlier in the thread), till I saw it...  Then he let me
write down all the info, and told me when I e-mailed them about the record
that I should mention he played it...  Very cool I thought...  Now that is
the way it should be...  Derrick may IMHO is the best DJ in the world
period, and if he's not too big to share the music he plays than who the
hell else is???  We should be a family, not a bunch of spy's trying to keep
what's good away from each other...  In My humble opinion at least..

can't remember who wanted this but, there's a competitor to the vestax 
one... I don't know how they're supposed to shape up but here's a url:

it seems like a lot to ask of a technics to put up the kind of torque to cut 
vinyl (even special vinyl or whatever) but I'm still interested...


there's a cottage industry just waiting for the first record shop to buy one 
of these, or the Vestax, and churn out dubplates for all their wannabe DJ /

Sometimes these battles were literally just that. If my memory of reggae
history serves me right I believe it was Coxsone (one of the major
soundsystem runners) who would send thugs out to the rival soundsystems to
bust them up... guns, bottles, rocks, knives the real deal. He would often
do this to find out what song was driving another crowd nuts. Remove the
label and he can't do that. He may destroy all your equipment but he
wouldn't find out that hot tune was.

Re: [313] looking for a vinyl press...

2001-03-12 Thread Mike Taylor

Hello,

Just bear in mind that this is a glorified dub-plate lathe, and not a real 
press. You cannot produce large pressings from a metal master plate with 
this machine. Also, I had heard that you cannot make a durable pressing with 
this unit(40 plays max,) has this changed since the last revision?


Take care,
Mike

I think Vestax was actually marketing one that you could use to cut your 
own

records at home. Check them out http://www.vestax.co.uk/flash/

It's the VRX-2000: Vinyl Recorder

From their website:
After many months of hard design work the VRX-2000 vinyl cutting machine is
now almost ready for release. Initially shown at the PLASA show in London 
in
September 1999, this machine has now changed quite drastically in both 
looks

and features. At this years PLASA, the new VRX was demonstrated live on the
Vestax stand, with records being cut straight from a cd source in front of 
a

very excited audience. Since this show further adjustments have been made,
and in early October the first production run of cutting heads was started
in Japan. Once these have been thoroughly tested the first few machines 
will

be despatched around the world. Initial quantities will be very limited as
each unit will need to be checked carefully before shipping. We already 
know

that demand is extremely high so please be patient.

The VRX-2000 takes a standard line level feed, either balanced or
unbalanced, and there is an internal amplifier, equaliser and limiter. The
limiter can be switched off to allow use of higher quality external devices
if they are available to the user. The stereo recording is then cut into 
the

new 12” vinyl discs with a maximum recording time of 15 minutes per side.
Optional 10” and 12” lacquers can also be used for recording, although 
these

will obviously not be as long-lasting as the vinyl Hermodisk. The sapphire
stylus is expected to last approximately 20 hours, although this will 
depend

greatly on how it is used. Frequency response is extremely difficult to
measure accurately, but those who have listened carefully to the latest
prototypes have been extremely impressed, with very little noticeable
difference between the original and new cut.

The final price is still not confirmed but the expected UK rrp is £6000
(excluding VAT). This price will include an initial training session, which
is essential for anyone who wishes to use this machine. The replacement
stylus will cost around £250 and blank vinyl disks will be around £10 each.
A firm price will be released by each individual country when the first
units are shipped. Please contact your local distributor for further
details.

Luck to you
MEK

Re: [313] taking off pants

2001-03-12 Thread M Elliot-Knight
In some circles (like childrens' parties) they do just that. They are doing 
their job for their audience. If you were a mobile jock and you started 
playing Jeff Mills at some wedding or kids b-day party chances are you would 
get your ass shown to the door. So my point still stands. The primary 
purpose of the DJ is not to expose music but to entertain the audience... 
this is important for ANY type of DJ to remember regardless of genre or 
"scene". It keeps you humble to know that it is not you that is so f*cking 
important but the audience's _experience_ of you. When I'm done with a set I 
don't ask "was I good?" I ask "did you enjoy it?" However, we are now wy 
off topic. If you want to continue please email me privately.

I'm sorry, I must disagree with you on this fine point. The primary purpose 
of the DJ is to entertain an audience. If a DJ's primary purpose was to 
expose artists then a DJ could play a set of terrible artists and do it 
really poorly and yet they would still be doing their job well because they 
are exposing artists.
Regarding the early days of radio, the DJ's purpose then was to entertain or 
keep an audience captive so that they could sell commercials (just as it is 
today on mainstream radio).


Entertaining an audience is always job #1 regardless if you are a mobile 
wedding/birthday party jock or Superstar DJ Fancypants.

But this is why clubs are required to pay BMI and ASCAP dues. Royalties are
a legal requirement. There is a sound principal at work. If a club or radio
plays a song, the artist deserves (funny word) to get some reimbursement 
for
it. It's a generally accepted means of exposure. Not all clubs pay dues, 
but
they are liable to be shut down if they don't. Similarly not all 
underground

labels are members of BMI or ASCAP. The issue is that but for this system,
clubs would not have the authorization to play *any* music. It's a flawed
system, but it illustrates the principal at work. The idea of paying
admission is based on this principle. The question isn't "why shouldn't you
take labels off", it's "how can you justify doing it"? I have yet to hear a
sound argument as to why it's OK to steal that exposure from the artists.
Maybe the question should be "why are clubs not required to post a 
tracklist
at the end of a set"? That may be extreme and hard to implement, but you 
can

see what I'm getting at. We're fortunate to be able to hear music before we
buy it through whatever sanctioned or unsanctioned means are availalable to
us. We're fortunate that laws aren't stricter, requiring that each track's
info be announced every time it's played (this would be annoying in a 
club).

The DJs primary purpose is to expose music. That is the original history of
DJing. It is how this all started. A lot of things have changed since the
early days of radio, but I fail to see how the DJs primary obligation to
expose artists has ever mutated.

Re:

The whole thing with removing labels is something that has come from the
Jamacian sound system parties and early hip hop battles in the Bronx
with DJs like Kool Herc.


Kool Herc (Clive Campbell) himself was from Jamacia and brought this 
tradition of removing labels to American DJs (or selecters) when he moved to 
NYC.


The DJs ran sound systems and would often have to battle with other 
>systems to draw the biggest crowds and being able to play certain tunes

Sometimes these battles were literally just that. If my memory of reggae

Shameless Self-Promotion ;)

2001-03-12 Thread Myke Mitchell

Hey all,

just to let everyone know who is in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) that I 
will be spinning at the former 1 TRAK Wednesday night.  It has been taken 
over by another promoter and I have been invited back.  It's this Wednesday 
night at Times Square in Waterloo (35 King St. East).  I will be spinning 
with Chad of Speed fame, I think Chad and I are going to tag team for an 
hour or so.  Should be an interesting night, come check it out and have some 
beers if your free.  That's it, thanks..

Instead of running up and seeing what the fresh piece
of vinyl making the rotation on someone else's table
is, if you really like a song that much... go dance to
it!  You can always ask around later.

I'm no DJ, but I'm betting that the DJ would enjoy to
see people dancing a little more than people standing
around trying to figure out what he's playing.

2001-03-12 Thread diana potts

 So I'm listening to Mathew Herbert's set on
Betalounge and he played this awesome track written by
Drew Daniel of Matmos. I looked at "Sounds Like"'s
site and it says the track isn't officially named yet
and just has "Soft Pink Truth" listed as the artist.
It's a pop/glitchy funky track..

 Has this officially come out under a name or other
artist title? I checked Bent Crayon under "Soft Pink
Truth" and nothing was listed..same with r/t.com

 any help is good help.

thanks
D


from the site:

As yet untitled but out in the new year, this kick-ass
12 has already been turning a few heads when i've
played it out. It's written by Drew Daniel from
Matmos, one of the underground's brightest acts. Their
new album, 'A chance to cut is a chance to cure' is
written around the sounds of surgical procedures. In
my Doctor Rockit guise I got to perform surgery on a
track of theirs made out of a nose job operation.
Anyway, this is Drew's solo project and is a mix of
funk, house and intricate techno-style programming
that is funny and deadly serious by turns. I must say
how excited i am to release such a record and I wish
there were more records like this out there.

Academic, yes.  UK-centric, yes.  Worthwhile, yes.  Life-changing, no.
I can't comment on how it compares to Reynolds, but there are a few

But this is why clubs are required to pay BMI and ASCAP dues. Royalties are
a legal requirement. There is a sound principal at work. If a club or radio
plays a song, the artist deserves (funny word) to get some reimbursement for
it. It's a generally accepted means of exposure. Not all clubs pay dues, but
they are liable to be shut down if they don't. Similarly not all underground
labels are members of BMI or ASCAP. The issue is that but for this system,
clubs would not have the authorization to play *any* music. It's a flawed
system, but it illustrates the principal at work. The idea of paying
admission is based on this principle. The question isn't "why shouldn't you
take labels off", it's "how can you justify doing it"? I have yet to hear a
sound argument as to why it's OK to steal that exposure from the artists.
Maybe the question should be "why are clubs not required to post a tracklist
at the end of a set"? That may be extreme and hard to implement, but you can
see what I'm getting at. We're fortunate to be able to hear music before we
buy it through whatever sanctioned or unsanctioned means are availalable to
us. We're fortunate that laws aren't stricter, requiring that each track's
info be announced every time it's played (this would be annoying in a club).
The DJs primary purpose is to expose music. That is the original history of
DJing. It is how this all started. A lot of things have changed since the
early days of radio, but I fail to see how the DJs primary obligation to
expose artists has ever mutated.

Re: [313] taking off labels

2001-03-12 Thread seth ...

This was a
practice picked up by the Northen Soul Djs in the UK who played almost
exclusivly rare and old Detroit soul.


actually, this is a bit wrong... Northern Soulies have always told the name 
of the tune. It was the importance of owning the track rather than knowing 
the name. Once it had been 'broken' they were all for telling folk since 
they'd be highly unlikely to ever get it, since some of the records were 
b-sides and outtakes which were never even released and were only found 
twenty-odd years later by trawling through warehouses.


Also, they didn't all play old detroit soul. much (if not most) 'Northern 
Soul' was actually Mississippi based as -particularly around Wigan- the DJ's 
were after a particular 'driving' sound, and with detroit sound you just 
don't get the kick drums... It's an interesting point however that the sound 
in Yorkshire, mainly cleethorpes, (less famous and less well reported than 
Wigan / Manchester) is somewhat sweeter and more detroit based.


A large number of northern soul DJ's will often toast their records 
trojan-style, including last time I saw them both Keb Darge and Dave Godin, 
and the same happens on some old (really really old) tapes.

agreed. the question is, though, do you have the right to trainspot?  i'd 
think that's up to the dj i mean, if you want a track badly enough, you 
can always hum the melody until you get home, then sing it into your mic, 
and post the url to the .mp3 of your drunken drooling to 313 and bug 
everyone about the awesome track you heard last night.


I can kind of understand that an insecure dj might want to hide a 
super-cool track, but that still doesn't stop you from finding out what it 
is.  If the dj's got it, and it's not a dub plate or a hard-to-find-promo, 
then you can guess that thousands of copies were stamped out, and all 
you've got to do is find one.




Like someone said earlier, your forgetting that somebody WROTE that track 
and i'm sure they would want people to hear it and own it.




Agreed, but the dj is doing them a favor by playing it... he's not

Deserves is a funny word.

a dj is incapable of keeping his records special, unless access to them is

access to them in any way.
