Already on the pipeline, an x-tra IDM isue
dedicated to what happened these last days in Miami. Needless to say that this
year's Conference will hardly stay in the memories as one of its best editions
so far apart from too many rare moments of intense emotion and a few outstanding
tunes.
In fact, we trully came there with the idea of
providing you with the best that we could. Alas doing so means that we would
have had to have all the necessary credentials and infos which some people have
neglicted to give us for some reasons. So the question that deserves to be asked
is do these people want the fruits of their work to be noticed on these pages ?
Would be tempted to say no, as they look like not being interested in what we're
offering you (and subsequently them) then kindly ask them why we would have to
keep on paying attention to what they're doing in return, even though it's to
provide you with what we think to be the best complete coverage of the scene.
Luckily enough, some others have ended up becoming supporters of what we're
doing and we'll focus on them. Most of them being ironically some of the true
originators of house music. People whose attitude is nothing but doing good
music in a genuine spirit of sharing the vibes. Some of the best exemples being
given this year by people like Danny Krivit who took care of putting our
names on the guest lists of the events where he was playing, Chicagoan Glenn
Underground and his Urban Heirs posse or the Large Music and the
3° teams, but also Detroit activists Norman Talley, Dewayne Jensen
and Mike 'Agent X' Clark. Not to mention the West End family who trully
showed us their commitment. Enough reasons to explain the fact that all of these
people are still around after so many years.
Just a question of love at
the end of the day. That thing that saves the day, as choosen by Tim Lawrence
as the title of his recent book dedicated to the disco period from 1970 to 1979,
but also by Jaque while doing the famous cover (our current single of the
week) of a the Whitney Houston's classic song of the name ("Love Will
Save The Day). MFSB
