That reminds me of an old thread by Fran on NE-Raves. I have been wondering as of late if there are any women creating some of the music that I know and love. I know that women are beginning to break into djing and promoting a little more than in the past, witness Your Sisters' House and Laura (of east and west coast fame), but I have yet to hear of women writing, performing, mixing or producing the music. I hope that I am simply clueless (wouldn't be the first time) and women are beginning to dominate the scene, but I kind of doubt it. By the way, simply providing vocals alone does not IMHO constitute creating and shaping the music. Although singing itself can be highly creative, I feel that many women (especially black women) have been exploited by both musicians and record companies for their voices, purrs, and moans. However, please do not misread my comments to mean that every time a woman sings, she is being exploited; that simply is not the case. So please clue me in on any presence of women in the scene or behind it. Thanks in advance, adam lee weaver -- please no flames.

there's a band in the bay area called NRSHA (with an umlaut - i swear i am not making this up) which is composed of two women: sarah and kelly. personally, i have a pretty low opinion of their music and ability. apparently many people share this opinion... :) Jon Drukman jdrukman%dlsun87@oracle.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This calls for a very special blend of psychology and extreme violence.
