I haven't seen a review, but I was there. BTW, M-nus.com states strongly that it's not 'Plastikman', it's Ritchie. Beyond my expectations, quality of music, venue, people, vibe. I drove from the middle of Ohio to Detroit, where I was born. (I used to go see angst-filled post-punk a half-mile down the road from there, back in '82-83.) This was supposed to be a retrospective of early Techno to the Future. It was. House, D & B, EFX, and mixed in oldies like even Yaz, and early rave tracks I didn't recognize but everyone else did. Utterly fantastic, first Magda and Scott Gordon (who was a mentor to Ritchie), then Ritchie played hard from around 12 till I think 4:45 and slowly dropped to chilled EFX and said thanks and Happy New Year. (I'm not really an experienced club raver, plus I'm too fucking old, but that's my strong opinion, and I'm a snob as far as the music -- if it's not fascinating enough to "grab me" I get bored. I've been to good and some very boring "raves".) Magicnerd8@aol.com wrote:
