  Dear Paxahau: This is NOT Okay. No More “Underground” Stage!!!

  04.30.10 | Permalink | 86 Comments

  Despite widespread complaints from last year regarding the sound and set-up at the “Underground” stage at DEMF (including some scathing comments from yours truly), Paxahau has gone ahead and stuck the “Made in Detroit” lineup (which includes most of the Detroit based artists performing at the festival, of course many of those being the black [...]

  Have You Had Trouble Commenting Here?

  04.25.10 | Permalink | 5 Comments

  It has been brought to my attention many times over the past year or so that people have had problems leaving comments on ISM posts. Generally, it seemed to be some kind of irritating nonsense with Firefox’s Javascript implementation screwing with the spam-blocking plug-in we had installed. This resulted in the inability for people to [...]

  Sleeping in Code

  04.05.10 | Permalink | 17 Comments

  I assume some people might remember the initial post I made almost exactly a year ago regarding the trailer for the film “Speaking In Code”. I will now pause to allow you to go back and rewatch the trailer, read the post and the comments, and then we can get to the heart of the [...]

  Polls from ’09 and the ’00s….

  01.26.10 | Permalink | 8 Comments

  The end of ’09 also brought the end of the irritatingly unnamed decade of the ’00s. In the two previous years writing on this blog I have not had any sort of rhyme or reason to my year end wrap-up posts, and since I’m already almost a month late I’m not about to start now. [...]

  It’s More Fun To Compute – Back From an Unplanned Downtime

  01.22.10 | Permalink | Comment?

  Waaaaayyyyyyyy back on December 22nd I think it was, my computer at home decided to shit the bed. Being busy over the holidays, and since then with a skiing trip and a bunch of potential job stuff, I only got the chance to get everything back up and running this afternoon. Finally, the guest mixes [...]

  A few interesting things have popped up on teh web in the last week or so…. The man Kuri over at Energy Flash got the Oliverwho Factory to sit down for an interview. I have almost all the Madd Chaise records, but had never seen anything with these guys anywhere before. It’s cool to see [...]

  A Good Editorial About Deejaying

  11.02.09 | Permalink | 8 Comments

  I’m probably late to this party, but I just saw this post by Donnacha Costello over at the Bodytonic site. It’s good to get a producer’s viewpoint, and interesting to see him talk about switching back to vinyl. I can definitely see a wave of people doing just that in the near future, for various [...]

  Some more of our associates and compadres have hit me with some fun stuff that needs to be shared here. First off, a site straight outta Istanbul called Half Stereo has beaten me to the punch in getting an interview with Jason Fine. They do a good job covering his background and philosophies, getting at [...]

  New Records and A Couple Other Things

  The ill new records flow continues…. Some of these records will be familiar to you if you read ISM-writer Kenny’s reviews column over at the Bodytonic site. It’s good to see him becoming more of a house head, but at the same time he may need to quit biting my style Anyway, this edition of [...]

  Gotta Give It Up

  08.18.09 | Permalink | 5 Comments

  Taking it back to the old-school ISM style by Google image searching for the post title to find an inappropriate picture to slap on here….. So yeah, we’ve been a bit slower on our posting during the summer, but other blogs have not been letting up. I figure it’s a good time to let you [...]
