The reason she's still on the list is that since they shut down shell access to Hyperreal.org, I need help from Brian to actually ban someone. > "I’m still on the list. And I love that I have a whole subject named after me." This tells me two things: She wants to be the center of attention at any

If someone still communicates with Denise, tell her she's being unsubscribed and blocked from this E-Mail list. She's blocked me so I can't do it myself. I can't see her Tweets or Facebook posts either because I'm blocked, but I've had tweets forwarded to me complaining that it's a list where

How many folks on the list in the Detroit area?

There's no geographic limitation to being a techno fan but I'm curious: Who is left on the list who lives in Detroit, Ann Arbor, Ypsi, & the Detroit burbs?

Centering black voices in Techno

In that vein, here is an essay written by Ashleigh Lauryn, a Detroit DJ. It has to do with the controversy about N*na Kr*viz posting pictures of herself with cornrows, and Kr*viz tone-deaf reaction to criticism. But more than that it is a beautifully written essay.

On the one hand, Denise has valid points. On the other hand she attacks people who have done nothing but good for the Techno community, has never minimized the contribution of black artists, and has never centered themselves in the discussion. Denise, you need to find a way to make the points

Her discography is really brief. https://www.discogs.com/Paula-McPheirson-Lift-Me-Up/release/8899 That record is interesting to me, as it's a great example of 90s Detroit house music, and it's got contributions from Mad Mike, Buzz Goree and Mike Clark. In addition to Paula McPheirson, there's

I think it would be OK to say "hey I've got some good techno records for sale on discogs, here's a link" every so often, but I think the list will be over if people just start using this list as a trading post. Similarly I'm not so crazy about everyone and their dog posting their record wish

Thing NOT to do on the 313 list.

2020-02-27 Thread kent williams
1. Pile on Denise Dalphond. What ever issues you have with her, complaining about Denise is not on topic for the 313 list. Either contact her and work it out, or let it slide. Or unsubscribe. 2. Announce you're unsubscribing. A simple Irish goodbye is sufficient. 3. Any kind of ad hominem attack
