	Richard Sun is organizing an unbelievable rave 10 September
	in downtown SF.  If you've been to any of Richard's events
	before you know his shows are the best bang for the buck.  

	My group, Weird Blinking Lights, is one of many hardcore
	cyberpunk/tech groups working on sound, lighting, visuals,
	and other special effects for this event.  Many of us are
	involved in the project not for profit but for the sheer
	ecstasy of seeing new ideas come alive.  You will *not*
	want to miss this event.  Many of the special effects
	we're going to try have never appeared anywhere before, and
	this show *will* set new standards in multimedia bombardment.

	Flyer follows.

	My mind is fried from sitting in front of a terminal for way
to long so I decided to share w/ you all some of my "rave" fantasies.
For a while now I have been listening to people outside of the U.S.
speak of Rave's w/ 20000 people and it strikes me that nothing like this
happens around here.

Sooo...
	
	Wouldn't it be fun to get a school bus w/ everyone's cd's lp's
cassette's, inflatable castles and wander around the country throwing rave's.
What would be absolutely brilliant would be if no one made any money off of it
but rather it was a giant communal party. IE some people would ask the bus
to come to their city... they set up the advertising, warehouse and food
for the bus people. Ticket proceeds go to pay for that and gas etc..
People randomly join and leave the bus as they feel like it and all in all
its just a giant permanent rave/party/social movement/love fest.

	Perhaps its just a fantasy born from minds whose hands are glued
to keyboards, but the idea is quite entertaining. In mind is the the guy
who had the party on a hill for fun w/ donations (that kind of spirit).
My freshman year in college we used to throw parties where everyone we could
find would give us $5 w/ which we would spend all of to throw a giant party...
Same concept but roving.
	
	Maybe hippies would follow the rave bus around and sell X or E for
you not-americans and people would blame the bus for being like the g. dead.

	Maybe MUCH more importantly, millions of people would see the Rave 
scene for what it is (at least what it is in my op.) A giant happy, friendly
cross clique boundaries party.

	I would also like for it to pass out info on the rising intolerance
of America etc,but there seems to be a general apoliticalness of the rave scene.
which is in itself a detractor but on the otherhand ties in w/ non-cliquisness.
But I suppose I'm a Flaming Liberal :} If nothing else promote the happy,
friendly parts.

	Thats my bit.
	Flames, critiques and feasibility is of course welcome

First: Lately, raves like "Rave & Stimpy," "Mindride," "Durarave," etc.
       have been taking up the scene's time.  It's just that no real
       promoter wants to take up a date when one of those parties is going
       because they don't want to lose money.  Most people can't discern
       between a good production and a wack one.

Second: Good production companies really don't make money.  Look at Harmony,
        Braindance I and II, Candyland, Parallel Universe, GrooveYear,
        Enjoy Rave, Journey Into The Rhythm...none of these parties made
        large sums of money, and most everyone had a good time.

Third: If the neighborhood's too bad, you're a wuss.

Fourth: I know almost everyone in the Chicago scene, and, with a little
        exception, most people are cool.  Initially, most people have a little
        attitude, but that's the city, right?

No disrespect to Milwaukee.  You guys have fun parties.  I've been to a few
that have been really top-notch.  Word to Full House and Drop Bass.  But I
really think that Chicago gets respect.  Just be smart with what parties you
go to.  I won't say "Listen to Jerry about which party to go to..."...but it
wouldn't hurt once in a while, because I generally have an edge on exactly
what's going to be going on with a given party before it happens.  I'll
usually know where it's at a few days beforehand and what kind of stuff is
going in there, which DJs are going to show, etc....

Owell, time to bolt.

I wouldn't consider the video to be at the same level as the music 
at all.  It's mostly cheesy Video Toaster quality images with random
rave footage thrown in. They even recycle the same "birds flying through
the canyon" bit a few times.  Psychedelic, sure, but nothing compared
to, say, the "Creation Story" video tape.  As far as the CD goes, after
"Adventures...", "Peel Sessions", and "Aubrey Mixes" it gets hard to
distinguish among them -- with the exception of "Towers Of Dub" on the
soundtrack CD.

Of course I couldn't get by without having "Patterns" in my collection,
though.

CFNY in Toronto is going toward "classic rock". It's almost unbearable to 
listen to when they go from the Smart E's to a 70s rock song to 808 State.
Several DJs (including Chris Sheppard who is their big techno guy there)
have quit over the format change. 

It's too bad. Probably the only good station in the area. (good, IMHO, of
course)

There's one other (non-Orb) mix on there -- I don't remember by who, and

When I was in Canada a few months back, I passed up a 12" by a band,
or a person called "Tayah" (No, not *Toyah*), but have been unable
to find it since. Does anybody know of, or have, this single or know
if there is a full album?

The disc sounded like a pretty shameless rip-off of the Orb's
"Huge Evergrowing pulsating brain...", with beginning out with
ambient sounds, and then building up till a house beat kicked in, but
I liked it anyway....

Go through all your stuff and get out a stopwatch and record the BPMs for your
entire collection.  Make notes as to how the tracks begin and end.  Whether a
track begins immediately with a beat, or starts into it later, and whether it
stops cold on the beat or fades out with/without a beat.  Now you are prepared
to do beatmatching without sliders.  Of course, you'll only be able to
beatmatch tracks that have the same BPM, but this isn't too large of a
disadvantage.  Then if you want to push your BPM up, mix in a track that has
the beat kick in later.  If you are using CD's, you can preview the track to
see the time it kicks in.  Then just start that track when you have that much
time remaining on the currently playing CD, or fade the current one out in
that much time.

I was once told that there are DJs in the Soviet Union who DJ reel-to-reel
tapes.  This made me feel a lot better when I didn't have the proper
equipment.  I DJ'd with two Pioneer CD decks, and a portable CD player before
I bought my Denon.  It is possible.  Of course, it probably wasn't up to
Wattanabe(tm) standards, but I never received any complaints.

Well, as mentioned before a breakbeat is a beat that's looped as beat for
someone's own song. I think it is called "breakbeat" because most of these
loops were sampled from the breaks of old(er) songs.
The fact that "they end too fast and start too soon" is a fault from the 
people who have looped it. If you just take your time then you'll get it 
right (or buy an Amiga). I have no problem looping beats.
For some serious breakbeats, check out some UK tracks like
the X-Static EP from Dice (with a Soul II Soul beat at 147 BPM).
Oh yes, if you're making breakbeat house yourself, then please do not use
the standard breakbeats. At least you can re-start them (even T99 does that
in Maximizor) or cut them up (like in the brilliant track "Some Justice" by
Urban Shakedown).

Someone said that they had seen this bogus KLF thing in Florida and I read
that they were also playing in Boulder thursday night.  Well she will be in
Austin soon but not soon enough that I can spread the bad word and keep a
lot of people from being ripped off.  If it sucks, please post something
here to that effect so I can warn friends, neighbors, etc...

I attempted to find out for myself by asking someone who works at the club
where she/they will be playing.

Me:  What's this about Wanda and the New KLF?  I read on the internet that
     was probably a big scam since the KLF broke up months ago.

Him: Wanda worked with the KLF, she was the female vocal in their songs.

Me:  The folks on alt.rave seem to thing that she had only one sample on
     song of theirs.

Him: Wanda is a very nice person, look, I've got to go.  Bye.


As you can tell, this doesnt look very promising.  If someone can confirm
that this is the rip-off that it seems to be, I'll probably make like a
striking teamster and hold up a big "Its not the REAL KLF" sign up outside
the club where she is to play.  Hell, since all of the nightclubs in this
town are located in one little 5 block by 5 block area, I might even
consider putting out flyers that warn people it is a scam.  Sound cruel?
Well it also helps that I have a personal thing against the
cocaine-selling, butt-pinching, flaming in-your-face faggot of a club owner
that is arranging this thing.  I'd really like to see the bastard loose out
big on this one.

well, you all shouldn't have had any problems with the copies at kinko's if you
had signed a release amenity statement that states that you will be responsible
if you copy copyright materials. professors do this all the time. but legally, 
on the copier, it says that you should not copy identification badges, paper 
money. food stamps, stamps (uncancelled or cancelled) and internal revenue 
stamps. i copied a cover of the 808 state "Ooops" import cover and put it in a

   My copy has the 'Hard Wax' symbol on it.  The inner circle label has
 a picture of Mephisto (I believe) on both sides.  There are three mixes
 two of which are fairly similar and the other is a distillation of the
 other two.  I'd call this track spooky, as if you quickly slinking through
 a haunted house with a unseen zombie not far behind.  Also there is
 some nice noisy frequencies that ebb and flow throughout the track.  Kind
 of hard to describe otherwise, no goofy samples and some progression.

  What do you mean by this last phrase?  Surely Coltrane/Coleman are not
 in any way associated with Acid Jazz...SQUONK
