hmmm, if you say so.

Dirty, we've locked horns a few time, and im man enough to say you've convinced me of a few things. But I must say that technology doesnot dictate the future. It can only influence it a little. You arent convincing anybody of anything by repeatedly saying "Give in and accept your fate." At the heart of techno is the spirit of indepdence. Regardless of what new toys SONY and Vestex spits out. You sound like you have the soul of a consumer. Not a techno soldier.

[dirty_bass]

I`m not saying give in at all.
I`ve said repeatedly, that vinyl can work alongside other mediums.
The problem is that most people poo poo other mediums without even trying them at all.
That`s all.
Most people, when they cuss about it, for all their moaning, deep down, I think its fear of change, and the fact that they`ve been mixing vinyl for so long they don`t want to try new things.
Hehe, totally not a consumer.
In any way.
Just a futurist.

I think to a cetain extent, technology does dictate the future.
Internet improving communication has changed business.
Mobile phones have made work culture go into 24hour overdrive.
Aircraft have improved world travel
It`s a bit of a philosophical thing to get into, but technology has more than an influence on the future.

Not that it has anything to do with vinyl.

Not a techno soldier.

Don`t even go there man. I`ve done more than most. I`ve risked arrest many many many many times, putting on techno parties.
And sacrificed a hell of a lot for my music.
I live my life around music and art, I care a lot about it, a hell of a lot, and I say what I say in the same way I approach painting, sculpture and literature.
The need for reinvention, innovation, new technology etc is very important.
Man, don`t even

[AcidTrash]

It's nothing to do with denying new technology its rightful place. I just think Ipods are pony.

[log:one]

If you've got an iPod you've stopped caring about music.

is that a joke? i really hope thats a joke...

I`ve risked arrest many many many many times,

bah, i walked right into the sting.

fortunetly the charges were written up by an exhusted patrolman at the end of his shift. my lawyer punched so many holes in the charges i was let off.

It looks like a mockup to me....but I would not be suprised if this ipod thingy do-hicky gets released....I see so many people on the train as I'm going to and from work with ipod & ipod mini in all the fancy colours.
Can you use pirated music in ipods? you would only have to change the format on the tune? .....am I correct?
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
As for the pitch control on the do-hicky instant dj mega star contraption....I think you would only have to press a button and it would match the beats for you.

[dirty_bass]

We just got away with it on pure blag.
Got cuffed a few times, but even then we got out of it.
nothing like a bit of essex charm to get you out of a spot ;)

[rs1800]

dont forget

Viynl survived radio when they said it would die
Viynl survived casettes when they said it would die
Viynl survived CD's when they said it would die

and it wont surive this?

[dirty_bass]

Only because of the DJ
And there was simply nothing there that could replace it.
Now there is. An for the majority of DJ`s, who don`t want the finer points of vibration effects etc for scratching, there is now something thats probably easier to use.

I think as a point made earlier by someone, being only a single format release, restricts your audience mainly to DJ`s. And there aren`t that many DJ`s. So there are a lot of people left out.
I think dual format releases would be wise.
however there needs to be good promotion and infrastructure to support this new market.
And the current distributers are having a hard enough time just selling vinyl.
So there is no easy solution.

I`m sure people were saying the same thing when recordable cassettes came out.

On the back of "Electro 1"from the old electro seiries it has a picture of a tape with crossbones with the messege "audio tape is killing the music industry"made me giggle :lol:
