haha right. i'd be interested to hear him play music he enjoys nowdays as opposed to just play another one of his sets. but yeah, i doubt 20-40 listeners would be a challenge big enough for him :D

Shock horror, Jeff Mills plays at Lost! (he might as well be resident).
@ tolstoyed: I've not yet heard all of this stuff yet, but I'm fairly impressed so far. I'm quite a big Mills fan too, but of course, I'll listen in totality many times before I judge. Still, don't hear too much of a change in his sound, not sure how much he's progressed as an artist.
Slight tangent, really liked the Exhibitionist DVD mix though, nice to see him up close and personal, even if he is a raving lunatic when he starts to talk.

there's quite a change i'd say. i didn't like that tech house crap he was into for a while one bit. this is again minimal techno at its best though! it's like hawtin and him are having a battle of who can create a more intense record with as little as sound as possible. can't wait for new plastikman!!

man, music like this proves there's only a handful of artists in electronic music that can create perfect music. sure, there's a lot delightful electronic music around but majority don't get anywhere near to what top guys can do. i wonder if all those ravers see the beauty in his music, i often think they're not the right crowd for him :)

oh, i don't mind dancing, is just that people from this scene often only find this sort of music as something to dance to and don't really listen to it. at least that's the impression i got here, although i haven't visited many techno raves. much prefer the normal club low profile gig.

For the mental health of Mr. Mills I better avoid dancing at any cost.
I'm a REAL MACHO, you know. I don't dance.

I prefer early Mills when he was a lot more aggressive and hardcore. I still have most of his 12" releases though and he still has his occasional stroke of genius.
When it comes to minimal + hypnotic techno, its still hard to beat Robert Hood though. Minus is exceptionally brilliant.

Yes, Sorry about that mega hung over. I can't focus on a thread to long.
The best thing I have got from the mills is the live at the liquid room, Tokyo. It bangs big time.

minus is alright but nothing near to mills's sound..i like density he creates, the specific soft drums he uses, how he structures his songs..dunno, i just don't find other detroit people doing it like that..except for hawtin under his plastikman alias.

This One Man Spaceship is Jeff back in old form! Classic Axis style all the way. Too bad it's a limited release.
