If the minimal techno scene is a colon, then this thread is...
-edit-
Hm... it could be that this is all the said colon, or scene, feeds on anyway...

The big ones don't give a sht about some people giving their opinions, and I think this is part of growing bigger; you tend to loose some people, but win a lot more. You can't please everybody.
(btw is this guy saying this about you because he doesn't like you? I think not. He says this because this is the way he feels)
to be fair he has just as much right to tell me I don't know sh!t or whatever as I do to call him a pompus, arrogant & that he has no grasp on his place in the scale of things.
While I don't like what he said he has every right to respond however he wants.
When Jay doesn't want people to judge him his interviews, then why the hell does he keep giving them?
I have big respect for him as a producer, and I have also respect for many things he talks about. If there's one point hecouldn't be more right about is that the whole scene needs more people who clearly state their opinion about what's going wrong in mnml land.
It's very said that many of the good statements he gives just vapourize into nothing because they come with a lot of pretentious hot air that keeps people distancing themselves from the bit of true content hidden under a flow of disrespectful big-shout flaming.
Jay haze says Richie Hawtin could do a lot more, which may be right, but Jay could also do a lot more by stopping to be a dck.

i'm sorry about this statement.thom wrote:You went a bit far there, no? Don't you think?milc wrote:anyway, one thing clear is that
he is very american.
So canadian of me...
i didn't have absolutely any intention to be offensive against americans,
(which, of course, i don't know each of them.)
myself consider very seriously move to NYC or montreal in 2-3 years,
no reason to blame america or whatever.
i think i've said that just becuz i was in anger and sometimes i'm dumb..
i'm very sorry again...
no, he's right. it IS very american. (not too say it is all americans, though)

Well being superficial and thinking big of oneself is a la mode not only in USA but Berlin and wherever as well. And that's not because most American mnml DJs live in Berlin now
But overall I have to agree with Milc. Who gives out blows should learn to take them too. There's nothing more superficial than somebody who can't stand critics and starts flaming at everybody who doesn't agree with him. That's just not okay.
