this is a stupid can of worms to open up, but upon discovering "fix" magazine (l.a. based, it would seem) i was bothered by yet another display of stupidity by our self ordained superstar of the techno scene. here it comes: (sven vath asks...) "do you think that because you call youself a superstar that you become one?" (keoki) "i was born a superstar" (sven asks for it again with...) "do you thinnk that a "dj" like tracy lords is helping or hurting the whole techno movement in america, especially in relation to women?" (keoki) "people who are asking questions like this are hurting the techno movement." may i please remind all promoters, label-honchos, dj's, mixtape customers or semi-interested lurkers to avoid supporting anything with keoki in, on, or around it. this copy of "fix" will be recycled. and as for "fix"... magazines like this seem to do more harm than good. american marketing schitzo to the last, this issue features hangers-on love and rockets, oliver lieb, space oddity, radiohead, loop guru, and cocteau twins. a half-baked expressway from the industrial cover stars of yesterday to the no longer faceless techno smirkers of today. this magazine was free, and still wasn't worth it. on now: a diamond hidden in the mouth of a corpse ============================================================================ cameron bowden cameron@imagina.com blacksmith on the anvil in your ear ____________________________________________________________________________

It's unfortunate I can't say that I've stuck to this, as I've bought his Caterpillar single. However, his mix tapes/cds are definitely not going into my collection... only the songs on them. His first two mix cds have some smashing stuff on them. Each title is worth tracking down, for the most part. btw... I find it funny how he appointed himself a "superstar DJ". He must've been feeling a need for validity. Too bad his self-promotion has generated enough hype to force promoters to call him that too. All the stories I've heard about him give me the impression that he's probably the worst DJ out there, since he's doing the most harm with his pathetic attitude. -- guyjr@cc.gatech.edu a.k.a., Guy Elden Jr.

Oh, "shoot the messenger" eh? Sven Väth was in town, so Mike Patrick (a.k.a. Mike Fix) decided to interview him. I don't know where/how Keoki got into the picture, but what of it?

How so? In what way?

How are Love and Rockets "hangers-on"? The drummer has been going to Techno events - indeed, even starting his own Sunday night club, with well-respected L.A. DJ Christopher Lawrence - for several years now. I've seen him at many events, including our oh-so-underground Moontribe Full Moon Celebrations. I give him props for that, not a dis like you. Who are you to judge them? They at least had the balls to release an album that reflected their current tastes and influences, an album nearly guaranteed to alienate a majority of their existing audience. Hardly "hangers-on". And what's wrong with covering Oliver Lieb? He was just in town and played 2 shows, why not cover him (yes, "Fix" is local to L.A.)? What's wrong with covering Loop Guru? And as for the Cocktail Twins, well, there was that Mark Clifford remix EP not too long ago, hmmn? As for "a half baked expressway", well, that's the music that Mike (and his roomie Simon Lamb) like, so that's what they cover. I personally see no point in wasting column inches on Industrial deadbeats, but it's not my mag, y'know? "Fix" doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't, which is a magazine started by a fan who came from the Industrial scene and now likes Techno, but who still likes the other stuff as well. I personally read the bits that interest me and ignore the rest. Not too hard, innit?

Featuring the industrial cover stars of yesterday. What a coincidence. Anxiously awaiting Cameron's magazine, - Greg P.S. Cameron, you can tell Mike how much toilet paper your copy became at MikeFix@Fix.COM.

Cameron: hey, I'll go with the Keoki boycott (actually, I don't know anything about Keoki, nor have I seen anything in the stores from Keoki; therefore, since I can't buy it, I can easily boycott it), but what's wrong with those other people and groups that you mentioned?
