The colour of anybodys skin is irrelevant , but if yer know anything about UR , you'll know what Mike Banks is "all about", to quote Mike "into the darkness I go , do not try to find me". sonic assassin@ 4th world records uk http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/4thworld

Ummm...yes people should be treated as individual and people of all races should get along and love one another, but that's a pretty reductionist statement. Mike Banks has often written and spoken to the subject of race, so HE doesn't feel it's irrelevant. If you want to see a picture of Mike, check the issue of Muzik, as there's a picture of the UR posse towards the front of the magazine. He's the one wearing a mask ;-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- "I read Keyboard, but it's like staring at a book with pictures of simple looking but expensive machines." -- Michael Lazarev NEW CD Comp Electronic Music Project http://soli.inav.net/~kent/emp.html Kent Williams kent@inav.net CADSI 2651 Crosspark Road Coralville IA 52241 (319) 338 6053 (home) (319) 626 6700 x 219 (work) (319) 626 3489 (fax)

I had the fortune to stay with him during my visit to Detroit last year. The man knows what's up and he knows what he's doing. He has a vision and he's following it and he has no time for bullshit. He's also quite kind and generous. He drove out to pick me up from the Detroit airport without ever having met me. He also gave me the most amazing tour of Detroit and surrounding area. Of course, he values secrecy and I respect that, so that's all I'm going to say...

I never met him on a personal level. I.E. I never sat down with him in a private setting and got to know the guy. I have however seen/met a group of guys at the New Music Seminar in NYC several years back who were the "UR crew", which included Mad Mike and a few others. They were dressed in military fatigues with red berets. Their presence was so strong, everyone in the room couldn't help but notice in awe. It was very cool. They played off the whole techno revolution theme quite well. I felt like they were the lead of a strike force out to crush the commercial programmers. Please don't take this as a statement that Mad Mike and UR are a bunch of militant and violent guys out to bash heads. That's not it at all. It was purely a presence type of thing. A message if you will. Public presence is all a part of the entertainment industry and they are intelligent to know it and to use that to their advantage. Mad Mike has posted several times on the 313 mail list. He comes off as intelligent, calculated, and personable from what I can tell. I've always been very impressed with what he has to say and how he represents himself in a public forum. It's too bad I didn't know more about the other people behind the scenes in Detroit back when I saw those guys and NMS. I wish I could remember who they were. When you don't know who someone is, it's quite hard to remember their name. _ -robert | |___ ____ ____ _____ | |_ \ / -__/ / _/ | _ \ __________ |_____/ \___\ |_| | |__/ / -studio- \ _________________________________ |_| http://icse1.ucsd.edu/~rcurlee/ \
