i competely forgot about this -- and am beside myself with disappointment
by all accounts, the mia show was brilliant -- in every single respect -- save for what was evidently an incredibly long line to get into the concert area
again, this just shows that however dodgy mia's story or...
The Funky Worm - "Hustle to the Music" -- zany psychedelic brilliance -- but i'm sure some would say cheesy
very true
yeah, there's an instrumental on the flip -- w/ the "i wanna give you devotion" sample repeated just as frequently as on the A -- but if you play the instrumental, people...
elide?
redact?
bowdlerize, expurgate (purge)
abridge (though here meaning is preserved, merely the length of expression that is shortened)
obliterate
or how about nouns like lacuna?
i think people are still trying to pick up on that
off the top of my head --
(1) superstars of love (st louis rave maestro and "polymorphous pervert" gone electro-rock)
(2) g. rizo on codek records
here's the flyer from heat crew --
Aug 13, 2005, 2pm – 6pm, FREE
Location: Amphitheater, East River Park, New York City (Grand Street @ the East River)
Over the past few years, the music that has come to be known as UK grime has developed into the most vital music created by urban Black youth...
just to clarify -- that was my *interpretation* of tim f's use of the term "phronesis" -- i.e., basically a transparent attempt to boost my intellectual self-esteem after my terribly embarrassing moment on the miscellaneous forum wherein i betrayed to the world that i thought "rapport" was...
or house "absorbed" (or "reabsorbed") electroclash -- i.e., electroclash was in bad taste -- i.e., bad taste in both good ways and bad ways! -- and so house kinda took the edge off but also tampered down the commercialism
and in addition, there's the "shanty" house movement and the "breakcore" movement -- i.e., dj styles that criss-cross genres -- and this to me has lot more to do with house than so-called proper house djs
i'll second that!
and let me add "something good is gonna happen" by utah saints
and messiah, "temple of dreams"
(but again, i suppose a lot this stuff, formerly deemed cheesy, has long since been rehabilitated)
phronesis = something like practical wisdom in aristotle
i.e., only a gentleman knows how to recognize or "be" a gentleman
similarly, only a true citizen of house music knows how to identify the "good" and "innovative" in house
phronesis = the internal view, the participant's understanding...
i like to chatter ad nauseam about dance music here at dissenus -- but truth be told, i'm not all that knowledgeable
so i haven't the slightest notion about the acts you mention above, tim
(maybe i've heard it, maybe i haven't)
my perspective is very much a punter's view -- i go out a lot and...
heard him many times at the cafe de paris in 92/93
the time would have been better spent, in retrospect, at labyrinth -- but yes, i very much liked pleased wimmin's take on house music
but my point about monotony is this:
when exactly was it decided that house djs should play nothing but 4-to-the-floor, etc???
and who made this decision on behalf of the "genre" and "community" as a whole?
again, i can see the merit of taking things hardcore if you're really pushing the...
i think we should probably refer to tim f's remarks on the hater's thread -- about the tendency to "hate" what is close to what you like, b/c you don't want to be taken by others as a person who likes that sound or approach, or b/c you have a more passionate (if inarticulate) sense of what the...
