Nice job Dan, take a few pictures of the event for me, so i can see what you had on display.

Detroit will be center of electronic music universe
Movement 2004 expected to draw over 1 million
By RHONDA B. SEWELL
BLADE STAFF WRITER
DETROIT - It's an annual Memorial Day weekend event that calls for electronic music fans and artists to converge on the epicenter of techno music.
For the fifth year, what is now titled Movement 2004, Detroit's Electronic Music Festival, will pack downtown's Hart Plaza May 29-31 with techno heads, aspiring DJs, funk followers, and loyal electronic music fans for what is billed as the world's largest free electronic music festival. Organizers are even attempting this year to make the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest free electronic music festival ever. Guinness counters will be on hand to tally the size of the crowd; it has been at more than 1 million since its inception in 2000. Fest organizers must also supply aerial shots of the crowd to assist in counting for the record book.
Movement will kick off at noon on Saturday, May 29, and run until midnight, with the same hours on Sunday, May 30, and on Monday, Memorial Day.
Next weekend's lineup of over 70 Detroit, national, and European acts includes Francois K, Amp Fiddler, Ellen Allien, Kevin Saunderson, Marques Wyatt, Rolando, Reel People, Rockid, Ron Trent, Traxx, and Tortured Soul to name a few. Detroit's own Rolando will close out Movement 2004 with a finale performance on the evening of Memorial Day.
Last year's heavy emphasis on Detroit as the birthplace of techno and longtime supporter of electronica will continue this year as organizers promote local talent and national acts, Derrick Ortencio, festival director, told The Blade.
Detroit's long-standing electronic music reputation played heavily into the organizing of last year's Movement fest, which combined techno pioneers as consultants and organizers of the event, along with a pioneering historical exhibition of electronic music featured at the Detroit Historical Museum.
That same spirit will be enhanced at next weekend's festival, said Ortencio, with new features such as a designated area of Hart Plaza called Techno Boulevard for the exclusive use of independent music vendors.
The walkway "Boulevard" parallel to Jefferson Avenue will allow independent talent to showcase their work, and representatives of local, national, and international labels to meet and talk with each other.
"Movement, it's a labor of love. Based on the success last year, we've created a buzz around the world, and the creation of Techno Boulevard points to the hard economic times in music right now. Everyone is really struggling and this will serve as a thank you and encouragement for labels to continue to put out good music - it's a showcase and a platform for this," said Ortencio.
One unchanged feature from last year's fest is the naming of the event's four stages, which will again be the Music Institute Stage, named for the Detroit club that help launch the Detroit electronic and techno sound with artists such as Derrick May, Juan Atkins, and Richie Hawtin; the Movement Stage, featuring Detroit talent and international guest artists; the High Tech Soul Stage, with hip-hop, jazz, neosoul, house, and techno sounds, and the Underground Stage, with Detroit and Dutch experimental electronic music and minimal sounds of techno, hosted by the European Movement partner, The Generator.
Acts on all four stages will play simultaneously with very brief intermissions to change equipment and instruments for new acts.
Despite some bumps along the way in the festival's early years, Ortencio said he believes Movement's success will be long-lasting, based on the intrinsic values of electronica and the loyalty of the genre's following.
"I got into this music because the community vibe of electronic music is so positive. It drew me to it and I realized that the industry was based on a faceless, non glamorous component," he said.
"When I first started buying the music it didn't matter what the person looked like when I dropped the needle. It was just real in all its raw musical purity."

Come on people, I don't even live in FL anymore and I know where RockBar is. Right by Mynt.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out Sobe. 4 main streets, Collins, Ocean, Washington, Alton running north and south and 2 main streets running east/ west which is 17th and 5th.

This so called Euro Trash, blows away most DJ's that have been doing it for 10-15 years. JZ is still young, but one of the most talented and unique sounds to grace the decks.
He does not play the same House tunes that are heard over and over in every Miami club.
He is in my top 5 for sure

For good reason,everyone lately has been grousing about the soaring prices of gas and milk. Milk costs nearly $4 a gallon, and regular unleaded gas is topping $2 a gallon. And if your car likes to drink fancy schmancy gas -- well, just fuhgeddaboutit.
Then again, what if we had to buy more things by the gallon? If you look at it that way, gas and milk are a steal!

I have been into the scene deep and not so deep and love the music, but some people are born to be Trainspotters and ID tracks. They are on a different level, and to some people it is intimidating.
well that is one theory:
My other theory is POD is Scary.

23 musicians literally 'phone it in'
On May 16, 22 different musicians will perform from 22 different locations in a five-hour broadband "virtual orchestra", with the cumulative performance sent live via DSL to Vienna's Ronacher theater. There the performance will be mixed by Austrian composer Rupert Huber, then Webcast via the private-exile website. While the performance will be one of the first such project's attempted in real-time, the 22 musicians will rotate in shifts. The QOS and reliability demands of such an effort have long prevented similar projects from occurring.
The 23-musician ensemble gets to literally phone it in on Sunday, as Telekom Austria AG (NYSE: TKA - message board; Vienna: TKA) and Alcatel SA (NYSE: ALA - message board; Paris: CGEP:PA) present a five-hour "virtual orchestra" performance to show off the potential of broadband.
The musicians will play in separate apartments around Vienna from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on May 16, with the sounds sent live via DSL to Vienna's Ronacher theater. There, Austrian composer Rupert Huber (no known relation to David) will mix the individual instruments to create the performance. Results will be Webcast at www.private-exile.net.
A symphony might seem less of a pressure situation than virtual surgery (see the Light Reading interview with Pradeep Sindhu, Juniper Networks ), but it does require a precision in timing that's hardly guaranteed in VOIP or videoconferencing. And, of course, the connections have to stay up, lest the performance become a rip-off of John Cage's 4' 33".
That's why previous virtual-symphony projects haven't been real-time, says Paul Lehrman, a music lecturer at Tufts University. "People do one instrument at a time and mix it," he says.
The project's Website claims "Private Exile" will be in real time, but the musicians won't all perform at once. They are scheduled in overlapping shifts, creating a series of fluctuating ensembles during the five hours. The program doesn't indicate whether Huber's mixing will be strictly real-time, or whether snippets of, say, the 3:00 hour will be inserted into later segments of the performance. (Neither Alcatel nor Telekom Austria could be reached by press time.)
Classical composers have long sought ways to meld music and technology. In 1924, the player piano inspired George Antheil to write Ballet Mecanique, a piece for 16 automated pianos plus xylophones, airplane propellers, and an air siren, among other instruments.
Because the pianos had to be synched up, "Ballet Mecanique" proved unplayable in its original form until just a few years ago, when Lehrman, a Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) expert, dusted it off for a 1999 world premiere. The result combined live musicians and a live conductor with computer-triggered instruments.
If computers are fair game for the symphony hall, broadband might not be far behind. But even with perfect connections and infallible quality of service (QOS), it would be tough for a virtual symphony to play traditional pieces, Lehrman says. "Einstein was not wrong. You can't exceed the speed of light," he says. "If [the delay] is more than a few milliseconds, that's more than musicians can deal with."
Even if the delay is eliminated somehow, the musicians would be handicapped. "They need to be able to interact with each other, not just with the conductor, or the music comes out very sterile and disjointed," he says.
It's certainly possible for composers to create works intended for broadband performance, but that's a bit "anti-social" for Lehrman's taste. "There are enough problems with kids sitting in their basements with laptops, churning out music without collaborating with anyone else. That's weird enough."

"Also in an attempt to finish my studio and begin new (costly) music projects, i have taken on a day job with Volkswagon. So if any of you need a car come see me! Oh, and if you send me someone that needs a car and they get one you get a hundred bucks cash from Volkswagon..."
