Wow, this is really something

Eric’s final live stream!. Fucking weird.

LT42 Chloe is still going- making new tunes , running a label and vinyl shop in Seattle , reminiscing about her prog days on Twitter. She is sound. She said that from her dealings with him diggers was a truly lovely bloke.

      Im hearing Derrick May getting called out on Twitter for being a bit “party hands”. Im not on Twitter so cant confirm. Might be BS.

      Are party hands when you accidentally end up fingering some hottie when you only went into the toilets to do a line?

        Zackster will be on the floor when he hears Derrick May is techno’s answer to Jimmy Savile.

          Blame it on the dance community’s ambivalence to BLM…

            -si- When you say hottie, you really mean an absolute filthy slag, which lets face it, thats what really matters!

              I remember reading a Mixmag interview with Derrick May basically ogling and making remarks about every woman in the place the interview was taking place. The interviewer signed off the article lauding his techno godfather status but querying his pervy nature. Thought that was a bit odd reading it at the time. Crazy in this day and age pervs like him still get away with it……think thats him done.

              Zackster needs to make a statement

              If MC hadn’t of already done a terrific g strings gag earlier I could have shoe horned it in ref G Strings of Life.

              Onwards!

              …getting nasty , other names mentioned in that FB thread too

                Derrick was probably the first real Dj I ever saw. I had no idea who he was, and it wasn’t until years later that I found out he was a big deal. King Britt had him at an all ages show (telling in retrospect) and I went because I was 16 and couldn’t get in anywhere else. I can’t say he, or any of the Bellville 3, had much of a direct impact on my own storied career, but I will say that I always thought Derrick was kinda off. His flouncing around Paris in scarves down to his feet and talking about the creation of Techno as if its akin to rocket science is all a bit painful. I can’t say any of this comes as much of a surprise…..

                However, I am 100% DUDES ROCK, so fuck this noise, Derrick is innocent until proven guilty. Asking for a prostitute on your rider is an alpha move, and it shows he understands that sex work as real work.
