@ j

oh pls…forget richie and interview pan-pot?!

i don’t know in which country you’re living but it’s pretty obvious that the minus-sound has been an huge influence on the pan-pot guys.

and derrick may was an innovator in the last century.

anyway it is quite funny to read so much hatin’ on hawtin :-)

interviews with mr. dear are always welcome. konrad black would be cool (i love his style) or troy pierce (i’ve never read anything on how he produces his tracks, e.g. his louderbach-stuff).

[...] Dear, performing as Audion, is coming to Minitek in New York this weekend, and we know from reader feedback that you’d like us to talk to him. (Yes, some of the endless minimal entries in Minitek, true [...]

In terms of covering this weekend, I’m sort of limited to covering this weekend.

I’m missing Baby Ford on the schedule … where is that?

I would be inclined not to call people innovators except in very special circumstances. I’m not entirely certain what the label means.

@Peter – If the current electronic scene is going to get past m_nus, then magazines and blogs need to stop quoting the PR copy almost verbatim. Its like at the turn of the century they all stopped promoting trance and picked up on the trendy euro-mnml.

And yes, it is what it is – So why don’t you interview a REAL electronic music “innovator” Derrick May?? I know he’s not going to be at Minitek, but he’s one of the cats who brought this music around the world in the first place.

Well, okay, now we have more than enough *negative* votes that I’m absolutely going to talk to Hawtin and see if he’ll say something different than what he normally says. And, yeah, this festival is a bit of Minus overload, but I think we can put together something interesting. It it what it is … and if the current electronic scene is going to get past Minus, to be something Minus isn’t, then maybe best to reevaluate what Minus is.

Please, let’s forget Richie Rich. or anyone one else on Minus. I know your kinda new to the electronic music scene Peter, but trust me, we’ve heard it all before.

Why don’t you interview Pan-Pot?

Or if you want an “innovator”, how about Baby Ford?

I personally would love an interview with the Minilogue guys :D. They have such pure and inovative music. I hope they attend. Also I’d like to read interviews of Paul Ritch, Anthony Collins, the dudes @ Kollektiv Turmstrasse. These are all guys that are taking it up to the next level with each release/remix. Let’s not forget, RICHIE HAWTIN!
