Sideways Glances

this is how i do. heavy mixing various styles of electronic music on 3 turntables to create a continuous flow that seems organic in its movements, smooth in its transitions, groovy as hell with a healthy dose of inner space psychedelics and moments of sheer beauty. on a good day i can create a living entity out of music. this was a good day.

Beautiful Detroit

post-industrial Detroit was a rough place in the 1980s. as a major metropolis in the U.S.A. it neared the top of the list for unemployment, poverty per capita, infant mortailty rates, gang violence and the drug trade. yet out of this a few blessed souls looked to the future and created techno. we are forever indebted to beautiful Detroit and the sounds it spawned.
