313ers,
Please keep in mind that Pop Culture Media has owned the DEMF Festival from
day one. Carl Craig was only the face/name used to draw acts and underground
patrons to the festival.
Obviously Craig never had any power beyond that which the city of Detroit
and Pop Culture allowed him to have.
I am very dissapointed in Carl's dismissal but i'm sure that he wasn't naive
enough to think that this could never happen.
Detroit has been robbed, raped and pillaged so many times before that those
looking to "Broaden(exploit) Detroit techno's visability" are always suspect
in my eyes until they prove otherwise.
This whole situation is not about Carl Craig or Carol Marvin. It is about
Detroit Electronic Music.
The rest is a soap opera with a cast chock full of people who cannot or will
not represent DETROIT properly(Carl and Carol included) only their company,
IMAGE, label or whatever seems to be the priority.
Soap OperaQuestion: Why is it that the drama involving the festivals
directors is more prevalent(front page) than the line-up, artists, djs and
oh yeah.THE MUSIC!
Sorry but all are to blame(including those acting out without the facts:
Free Press must be 100% accurate i guess?) for this black eye on the face of
Detroit!!
Sad situation... but Detroit Techno should be the "focus".
