do you people get his brilliance? i love all of his darker stuff, shame he went a bit too into mainstream kinda sound lately. but luckly there's a lot of awesome work he's done in the past..and i doubt he'll be still in tech-house when he turns 50 (which shouldn't be too long) and will start with the darker stuff again. woo. |

well, i used to enjoy some jeff mills tracks years ago, when i was a bit into the hard and minimalistic techno, like steve stoll, pascal f.e.o.s. and such. but i don't know which mills albums are great. rercommend me some please. |

'the other day' and 'art of connecting' are my absolute favourites! |

The Purpose Maker stuff is good. So is the Confidentials 1-4 EP. Metropolis is nice too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, metropolis is probably the one release that is the most album alike. most of others are more like compilations. and i love it coz it's dark :) |
||||||||
|

|
|
ok, thanks. i'll check them out. i know metropolis though. i remember i didn't like that one very much.. |

He smashes it live. His records don't really do him justice. |
||||||||

|
|
his 1994-03 ax/pm catalogue is unmatchable when it comes to techno. nowadays he's just another brick in the wall. favs: very ep [!!!], the other day ep, cycle 30, tomorrow |

this is detroit techno music isn't it? I had Metropolis but it got deleted. I seem to remember it being pretty awesome sounding but lost touch. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
his mixing can be good and sometimes absolutely shit. i have this radio recording where he manages to mismatch almost every record, and people pretend they dont notice.. i also think his track 'the bells' is extremely overrated. |
||||||||

|
with a name like "jeff mills" i imagine he's completely shit. he plays house music. yeah, fucking wonderful goran. how the fuck do you dance to that shit, it's like 80 or 120 bpm or something. whatever the fuck it is, it's about 100 bpm too fucking slow. fuck you, house music. |

It is Detroit techno, Jeff Mills was a member of Underground Resistance but he left the band soon. I'm not too keen on his music but I love a lot of Detroit techno. |
||||||||
|

|
|
i totally agree. during those years he released his most memorable stuff nowadays he seems to release things which either go nowhere, or sound like lesser versions of the tracks he made during '93-'94 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
those tracks are hard to find on vinyl :-\ |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
wow, you're a complete prick. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
didn't he have an online store where you can still get that stuff? axis dot com or something |
||||||||

I HAVE A COLD I'M IN A BAD MOOD I FEEL LIKE STIRRING SHIT house music sucks cock, it's boring, slow and too repetitive for my liking. your thread's title sucks cock. deal with it. |

jeff mills isn't house, you fucking dolt! |

i was only drawing from goran's first post: "and i doubt he'll be still in tech-house when he turns 50" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
exactly. you've never heard him, you've never SEEN him, and you've not read other posts in the thread. he makes turntablism an artform, he's incredible to watch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, he's a turntablist? Then I'm interested. I think turntablism was an artform long before he came along. By turntablism, you are referring to the sort of sound that people like qbert, mixmaster mike and dj craze, to name just a few (favourites), bang out? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah ! You are right, they are available on www.axisrecords.com for really cheap ! Someitmes I forget to browse label's websites in order to get stuff and simply browse amazon or juno. Thanx for the idea ! P.S. : I hope the avatar ends soon, I can't stand my ugly avatar anymore. |

you're unbelievable man... do your homework before commenting on shit you obviously don't know anything about. christ. |

his music has been referred to as house, techno, tech-house and turntablism in this thread. how anyone can mix up turntablism with the other genres is beyond me; so what is the story then? and I went on a rant about house music, i stand by what i've said. it's boring, repetitive and too slow. |

Jeff Mills??? Didn't he do "I like to move it move it"??? Didn't The Prodigy kick him out of the band cause he was too dancey???? Fucking handbag house!!!! Jeff!!!! What sort of name is that???? He should have an IDM name like X-10 or summit!!!! Rings of Saturn though, well tasty. |
||||||||

Don't generalize. Goran only said tech-house, and it's only recent material that can be described as such. And for the record, it was you who said house. Mills has been one of the conspirators for mapping out the sound of mid 90s techno, and when he djs he treats the records as any (hiphop)turntablist would - like a tool. Slagging him off because he doesn't play 200bpm tunes is stupid. |
