Terraforma Exo Roma @ Forte Antenne - 27 Sep feat. Underground Resistance, Nkisi, Low Jack
When this was released I was still DJing. My bedroom was massive and all the DJs from the club would come back and have fun surprising each other with new music until dawn.
When Knights of the Jaguar was played for the first time there was pandemonium and tears and it was such joy. Finding out it was on #UndergroundResistance was the cream on top.
Geballer!

Fascinating interview with Robert Hood:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0L_owZu-9Q
Softly spoken, humble guy, with a deep understanding of music.
Talks a lot about minimalism, Underground Resistance, the links between gospel and techno - and is really candid about how his faith influences his music.
Very interesting man.

1993 and I was finding my feet as a DJ. I was getting in to the #PeaceFrog label (and #DanCurtin wherever he was releasing music) and I started buying tracks that I loved but could not really play on a dance floor. This is a good example of that kind of thing (#KenIshii being similar artist). Technically I guess this is “Detroit techno” with all those snare drums in it and is probably closer to #UndergroundResistance than I appreciated at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD04D6Y8iOY
The Unknown Soldier - Babylon's Gifts
Don't really know much about this, except it featured on Interstellar Fugitives 2. Doesn't even appear on his Discogs page.
But just so good. I can't stop listening. Dark, sci-fi sound.
No, you just realized that #Detroit's utterly legendary #Submerge records now has a digital downloads page…
…with pay what you'd like downloads by #UndergroundResistance, the Martian, & etc.

"...both of us (Mike Banks & Jeff Mils) saw a side of the commercial music industry that we didn't really like, so we decided that we would do our thing and we would do it faceless. The faceless thing was based on the hope that people would listen more to the music coming out of the speakers than worrying about what we looked like..."
this is a thread about music that has moved me to tears. I’m going to try and keep it strictly about instrumental music, about music that has no words and yet still made me cry at its beauty.
1. Final Frontier by #UndergroundResistance
If you choose to listen to this, take a look at the comments underneath it on youtube.
Perhaps the one that sticks in my mind the most is “One of the greatest uses of electricity by a human being since its discovery. Masterpiece”
Upon further reading: At several points in this 2009 paper the author notes the "masculine" and "male-dominated" culture of #DetroitTechno, and how #UndergroundResistance was partly a reaction against it. Recent accusations of sexual assault against techno legend #DerrickMay, and the nasty misogyny of those who defend him, suggest that the authors' comments were just scratching the surface. https://mastodon.social/@7sleepersmusic/112163970744468871
#TechnoTuesday #TuesdayTechno Rare scholarly article on the early days of #DetroitTechno and the emergence of #UndergroundResistance. It's bloody long -- I'm not even halfway done -- and maybe some of the propositions are debatable. But it's fascinating stuff and well worth reading. #Music #Techno #Electro #EDM https://interamerica.de/current-issue/schaub/
a short film by #roland about #undergroundresistance and #submerge https://youtu.be/5ErxKvL_zzU?si=OlGS0R5mKcelz4Ab what a great month to post this too. People taking control of their future and telling their own story of independence. UR are uncompromising and have been at the centre of all my music tastes for more than 30 years.

This morning's background working music might be a bit too funky. Hard to code when you're wiggling in your chair.
