H.I.M. June-95,
A word from da editors.
It has took us very long to make this issue of H.I.M.
The Maineditor (the raver) has a new job and has got little time to
do something for H.I.M.
Sorry for that!
H.I.M will be from now on a monthly magazine with:
- House party list (montly update)
- Club info
- and info about house styles!
The only thing that's going to be updated every month is the House Party
list. Al the other info will be updated if we have time for it!
You can still send us info for the House party list or club list, but
to a different number:
+31 (0)340267278 The Household / EFFECT WHQ
Leave mail to : The raver or The fox ][
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another change is that the maineditor (the raver) is no longer a Reality
member, He has joined Effect!!
And this will mean that H.I.M is a EFFECT release from now on!!!

Stuttgart Clubs
---------------
Red Dog
The red dog is named after a club in Chicago. It was opened in
november 1993 and has become one of the best house clubs in germany.
They present very often guest DJs from all over the world (England and
USA, concerning house :-) some of them were Hazel B, Paul Evans, ...
The local DJs are Ali (the owner of the club), Christian and Sebastian
Thursday
Open from 23:00 to 6:00 this is the techno day of red dog.
Friday & Saturday
Open from 23:00 to 6:00 (9:00 on saturday) (The club is empty until
3:00). This is the best place to listen to house music in the whole
area around Stuttgart. You can listen to all the different styles of
house and sometimes even some of the new acid tracks. The DJs are very
good and sometimes they even show it, if they are in the mood. The
crowed is mixed and you can find a lot of gay people here too. To bad
that it is so "en vogue" to go to the red dog, so there are a lot of
people just standing around to be seen and to see all the "important"
people of Stuttgart here. Anyway, if you are in Stuttgart visit this
club it is worth it.
ADDRESS: ???
__
Oz
The Oz is the best and oldest techno club of Stuttgart. A lot of
ravers started their raving here (including me) and every weekend
people from Frankfurt, Ludwigshafen, Munich, Freiburg, ... are
travelling long distances just to feel this atmosphere.
Resident DJ is Comander Tom (Noom Records), before there were Marco
Zaffarano (Harthouse) and Mike Schmidt (Cybordelics). Its not possible
to mention all the guest DJs from all over the world, including Sven
Vaeth, Tanith, DAG, ... and Live Acts like Hardhouse... so if you
don't know Oz, come and see it.
The room is a cellar, it is very dark, the walls are painted black and
the light jockey uses a lot of fog and few lights. They got a very
good laser systems (in fact on of my friends only goes to Oz because
of the laser). The sound system is very good too (at least it is
loud). It is very dirty, because the sweat condenses (sp?) on the air
condition and drops down on the heads of the ravers. The toilets are
only clean the first 5 hours, but at least you can alway get cool
water here.
Entrance is 10DM. Coca Cola 5DM.
If you are younger than 18 years, you are not allowed to enter the
club until 6:00 in the morning. They let everybody in, there is no
fashion or face check (sometimes I think this is a disadvantage, there
are lots of nerds)
Saturday
Open from 21:00 to 12:00. I think the Oz is the only club in germany
that is open that long. The crowed is mixed, from normal people at the
beginning of the evening to raving freak at the end. The best time to
arrive is about 4:00 in the morning. The music is very progressive,
Sunday
Open from 15:00 to 3:00. Yes, after three hours the Oz opens again, so
you can spend your whole weekend here.
Other
Sometimes there are special events in the holidays or if Sven Vaeth
finds his way to Stuttgart. In the day the coffee of Oz is open.

BALTIMORE, MD -
Modern Music
(410) 523-1882
comments: second floor large selection of 12". Digital Druid said that
on days when it is not busy you can sample the records before
you buy them.
WASHINGTON D.C.
Music Now
M St. NW (Metro 30/32/34/36/38b busses)
(Near the corner of Wisconsin and M St, Georgetown)
(between Pizerria Uno and the Body Shop)
comments: Music Now has a decent selection of 12"s and CD which
you can listen to both of them. The store is also connected
to Bohemia (rave-cloathing store) and has a chill out area.
There are some 3 1200's out and i haven't had to wait for a
listen yet, and can listen to as many as i want. YOu can also
ask whoever is working to listen to the music over the sound
system in the store. Music Now has a notorious reputation for
hoarding their music for well known dj's as well as snobby
workers, but i think it is a reputation that has changed alot.
The people who work there arn't particularly friendly but they
are helpful and are willing to pick out records when you ask
them for recommendations. And with the new store there is even
a better selection (which isn't saying a lot) as well as
a fresh start (hopefully:)
12" Dance Records
2010 P St, NW, 2nd Floor(Dupont Circle Metro/Red)
(202) 659-2010
comments: this store has hundreds and hundreds of 12" and a very good
selection of CD comps. Prices are not that bad. Have many old
records. House Music seems to be more their fortay then techno,
and their 12" selection of techno doesn't seem that large,
but, i heard they have a special bin near the door with some
tracks (esp. breakbeat). The atmosphere is cool with
usually someone spinning on the tables. You are able to listen
to up to six records at a time on the self serve tables
(There are two of them) or have the dj spin your record over
the sound system in the store
Tower Records
2000 Pennsylvania NW (Foggy Bottom-GWU Metro/Blue-Orange)
comments: Tower has a very large selection of 12" at decent prices. Look
through their selections any you will find some treats. Have
some nice compilations on vinyl also. Their CD comps selection
is not all that great, but their CD collection is big.
there are some great tracks, and if you cant find it, ask
cause they might have it stored underneath. the people
who work there are friendly, and finding a tracks that is
slightly POP-ular is a good bet.
Tower Records
Rockville Pike - Rockville, MD
Has a nice selection of Techno comps on CD and a decent selection.
Rockville used to have a very good selection of 12" also but recently
the decision was made to get rid of the selection so it is gone.
Prices are the same as at other Tower's in the area.
FREDRICKSBURG, VA
CD Jungle
Fredericksburg, VA - Address unknown
From Derek Tiffany:
CDs only, and a great selection of them. For Techno, lots of great
compilations, although a bit weak on solo artists works. Prices are $11.99
domestic, $17.99 Imports (cash). Bit higher on credit. Oh yah, bootlegs
available too.

What is a "rave"?
In general practice, a "rave" usually refers to a party, usually all night
long, open to the general public, where loud "techno" music is mostly played
and many people partake in a number of different chemicals, though the latter
is far from necessary. The number of people at the event is unimportant;
it can range from 50 people to 25,000 people. The cost of attendance is also
unimportant - there have been good raves and bad raves at both ends of the
cost spectrum (though in practice, the higher the price, the more commercial
the event, and the lower the quality). At a rave, the DJ is a shaman, a
priest, a channeller of energy - they control the psychic voyages of the
dancers through his choice in hard-to-find music and their skill in
anipulating that music, sometimes working with just a set of beats and samples,
into a tapestry of mindbending music. A large part of the concept of raves is
built upon sensory overload - a barrage of audio and very often visual
timuli are brought together to elevate people into an altered state of
physical or psychological existence.

The Different Forms of House:
"techno music"
Opinions on this vary greatly, but there are a few ways to distinguish
techno from other types of music. Overall, techno is denoted by its slavish
devotion to _the_beat_, the use of rhythm as a hypnotic tool. It is also
distinguished by being primarily, and in most cases entirely, created by
electronic means. It is also noted for its lack of vocals in most cases.
Techno also usually falls in the realm of 115-160BPM. There are of course
xceptions to every one of these rules, but these guidelines seem to survive
the "what about..." test most of the time.
There has also been a significant use of samples in techno songs, samples
ifted in huge blocks and contributing a large share to a song's popularity.
This can be both bad ("Theme to Sesame Street" in Smart E's "Sesame's Treet")
or good (Star Trek transporters sampled in Eden Transmission's "I'm So High",
giving YOU that transporting feeling) or great (Tears for Fears sampled in
Orbital's "Moebius"). This sampling has generated much controversy, and it
is the opinion of the author and many others that sampling is okay as long
as the sample is not the whole song; "Seseme's Treet" might be an okay song,
but if you take away the sample (which was lifted verbatim from the TV show),
you don't have much of a song left.
"Rave" music has several different forms:
a. (Chicago) House
House music is where it all began, when Chicago DJ's started playing around
with their Kraftwerk 12"'s with their soul records, and a brand new object
called a DRUM MACHINE which they discovered they could use in their set.
The steady and clean sound of the house rhythm coupled with uplifting soul
vocals gave "house parties" an incredible energy. House also uses more piano
riffs and generally sounds "happier" than most other forms of music played at
raves.
Good Examples: Best of House Music, Vol. 1, 2 (Gotta Have House),
and 3 (House Music All Night Long)
Aly-us "Follow Me"
b. Acid-House
Acid-house developed when the Roland 303 and similar drum machines/synthesizers
came out producing the "funky worm" - that VERY distinctive sound that just
*sounds* liquid. The sound and the style is linked to use of LSD, but many
people claim to feel many of the same sensations while listening to acid-house
music. Others claim this is wrong, that acid was a term derived in Chicago
for stealing samples from other records, i.e. the "acid burn". Still others
claim this was a rumor created by people defending the scene in Britain,
trying to unlink the party scene from the drug scene.
Good Examples: House Hallucinates Pump Up the World Vol. 1 (A&M CD 3928)
Adamski - Liveanddirect (MCA MCAD-6454)
Maurice - This is Acid
and more recently, more in the vein of acid trance:
Hardfloor - TB Rescusitation
Anything on Labworks
c. Techno
It is probably best to split techno into three groups - proto-techno, Detroit
techno, hardcore, and "techno-rave".
c.1. Proto-Techno:
Proto-Techno isn't really a style of music per se. It's merely a concatenation
of the various artists and styles that had the biggest impact on the original
creators of techno in Detroit. Hence, there isn't much stylistic homogeneity
here. Proto-Techno can be anything from the minimal, assembly-line technopop
of Kraftwerk (particularly the 'Trans-Europe Express' album) to the nonsense,
party-time funk-taken-to-its-illogical- extreme of George Clinton's Parliament
/Funkadelic to the early '80's hip-hop mongrelization of the two in the Electro
genre.
Examples:
Kraftwerk: "Neon Lights"
Parliament: "Flash Light"
Afrika Bambaataa & the Soulsonic Force: "Planet Rock"
Cybotron: "Clear"
Kraftwerk: 'Trans-Europe Express' (Capitol CDP 7 46473 2)
Kraftwerk: 'Computer World' (Elektra 9 3549-2)
Parliament: 'Parliament's Greatest Hits: Uncut Funk/The Bomb'
(PolyGram 822 637-2)
Various: 'Street Jams: Electric Funk Vol. 1' (Rhino R2 70575)
c.2. Detroit Techno:
The hallmarks of Detroit Techno are a stripped-down, aggressive funk sound,
played mostly on analogue instruments (the Roland TR-808 is a favorite drum
machine), and, most of all, a pounding, severe rhythm. Vocals are rare. It
has no "soul" in the traditional Motown/Stax sense of the word, which is not
to say that the music is devoid of feeling or emotion - it's just that the
expression thereof is unconventional. "Magic" Juan Atkins, Kevin "Reese"
Saunderson, and Derrick "Mayday" May are the names you need to know to fake
your way through a conversation about Detroit Techno.
Examples:
Inner City: "Big Fun"
Rhythim Is Rhythim: "Nude Photo"
Various: 'Retro Techno/Detroit Definitive: Emotions Electric'
(Network UK RETROCD1)
Various: 'Techno One and Two: Electronic Dance' (Ten UK DIXCD 123)
Derrick May: "The Innovator"
c.3. Hardcore Techno:
Where Detroit stuff is mainly a hybrid of European technopop and funk, your
average Hardcore song seems to be a speed-metal tune played on Detroit-type
instruments (although the TR-909 is the drum machine of choice). Hardcore
Techno is easier to get up and hyped to than its Detroit counterpart. Hardcore
has brought much of the metal crowd into dance music, and reconciled dance
parties with the industrial crowd as well.
Examples:
Tresor Compilations Vol. 2
"Lock on Target" by Disintegrator [Industrial Strength]
Industrial Strength Records Comp
"Cosmic Trash" by DJ Dano [Mokum]
Various: 'Turn Up the Bass: The House Party/The Ultimate Megamix 2'
(Arcade Benelux 01 6720 61) (Weak mixing, but it contains
one-to-two-minute sections of nearly 50 songs, giving perhaps the best
overview of the hallmarks of the style available on a single disc)
c.4. Techno/Rave:
Techno as product. When people complain about "techno by the numbers," they
sually mean Techno/Rave. This style is generally soft and accessible. You
are much more likely to have a rap or other vocal in a Techno/Rave track than
either a Detroit or Hardcore track. Examples include 2 Unlimited, the Smart
E's, and recent efforts by the Shamen. What MC Hammer is to hip-hop, what
Winger is to heavy metal, Techno/Rave is to Hardcore.
Examples:
The Shamen: "LSI"
2 Unlimited: "Twilight Zone"
The Movement: "Jump"
Various: 'The Ultimate Rave' (EMI/Virgin/PolyGram UK CDP 798641 2)
Various: 'Rave 'til Dawn' (SBK K2-80070)
d. Breakbeat
Breakbeat is symbolized by the use of sped-up hip-hop beat samples. Very often
eggae tunes and influence are brought in, to good effect too since most reggae
is around 65-80bpm and most breakbeat techno about twice that. Breakbeat is
very effective at getting the crowd moving, but its hypnotic effects are
somewhat less.
Examples:
Jungle: Johnny Jungle EP
D.M.S. - "S.O.S."
SL2 - "On A Ragga Tip"
Phuture Assassins - "Roots N Future"
DarK: Metalheads - "Terminator"
Nasty Habits - "Here Come The Drums"
Rufige Cru - "Darkrider"
Ballad: Fabio - "Ghost In My Life"
Acen - "Window In the Sky"
e. Ambient
Basically ambient (or ambient house) is designed to lull your mind through
more soothing rhythms and samples.
Good Sample: The Orb: U.F.Orb (Big Life/Mercury 314 513 749-2)
Amorphous Androgynous: Tales of Ephidrina (Astralwerks ASW 6101)
Aphex Twin: Selected Ambient Works (R&S BE AMB CD 3922)
f. Trance
Very similar to both ambient and acid-house, trance is softer on the ears
and body than most techno, but still keeps you dancing (unlike most ambient,
where the effects are more profound if you SIT DOWN and listen). It's
designed to try and take you, literally, into another world.
Examples:
Eden Transmission - "I'm So High" on Exist-Dance.
"Stella" by Jam 'n Spoon
Any of the "Trance" comps, or anything on Guerilla
A variant (or sub-genre) of this is hardtrance, which is currently very
popular in the underground all over Europe. Characteristics, higher beat
(c. 150 bpm), compulsory 303 sounds and string layers.
Examples:
Almost anything on Harthouse label (Overboust, Progressive Attack)
Ramin: Vol III
Sextant: Part of the Scene
g. Tribal
Tribal is denoted by exactly that - rhythm patterns and sounds which closely
mimic Third-World and Native American and other "World Music" styles. The
connection between modern-day raving and ancient musical and cultural rituals
is thus established, and the dancer can be transported to a more primal self
(in theory).
Examples: Studio X - Los Kings Del Mambo, 808 State - Reaper Repo
h. Progressive
This is the newest and least-well-defined genre; it's based less on sampling,
less on wailing divas, and less on hip-hop culture, and more on authentic
instruments, haunting melodies, and always around 120-125bpm. There's always
a strong beat, and at times it resembles acid jazz. The appelation of
"progressive" was given by a music magazine, so many people wouldn't call it
that, but so far no other name has come to replace it, and it is fairly
different from straight house. This is the most popular music at raves in
San Francisco right now.
Examples: "Cry Freedom" by Mombassa, "Mighty Ming" by Brother Love Dubs
The Trance compilations vols. 1-3
Ritmo De Vidaa: Taboo
Otaku: Percussion Obsession
React 2 Rhythm: I Know you like it
React 2 Rhythm: Intoxication
D.O.P.: Groovy Beat
Labels: Guerilla, Limbo, Soma, Hubba Hubba
h. Deep House
Deep house is a style of house most prominently influenced by a combination of
gospel and old chicago strictly house beats. Look for wailing divas
(I love them!) spooky organs and that old chord progression that we know and
love. Deep house never nods in techno's direction..ever..
Examples:
Can't Trust Nobody - Sloppy
Check out anything on Strictly Rhythm Records.
The shelter club's theme song
Ten City, My Piece of Heaven

Creating techno music
a. E-quipment
Roland
Roland produced a series of electronic instruments in the early 80's all with
three character names. There's the 101 synth, the 303 bass line sequencer
(popular for acid house), the 505 drum machine (the 505 is one of the first
drum machines to use PWM samples for creation of drum sounds) there's a 707
drum machine and the 727 . the 727 features latin noises instead of the normal
drum kit (miami sound machine uses a lot of 727 sounds) the 808 drum machine
has that big beautiful whooooommmmmm kick associated with early house (not to
mention drippy sustained highhat noises and snares). the 909 is a midiable
pounding drum machine, it kicks. it's used in hardcore techno; the majority of
hardcore bands I've seen live have a simple 3 part setup, some sort of sampler
workstation/sequencer hooked up to a 909 and then the 909 syncs the 303. some
even bring a dat machine along for backing tracks.
MC-202
The Roland MC-202 is a microcomposer, which means that you can program songs
into it. It saves to tape. It has sync and CV-gate but no MIDI. It makes
some of the best bass sounds, comparable to nothing. It produces a rounder
sound than the 303 (which is a bit squelchy) and the 101 (which is a bit noisy).
N-Joi and The Prodigy have stuff use the 202. (N-Joi used it in their "Live
in manchester" album. and The Prodigy used it in the bassline of "Everybody's
in the Place.")
Basic setup
well the basic set-up is any computer that can be plugged into some drivers
including keyboard, drum machine, sampler, sequencer, and fm modulators.
NeXTS, Macs and Amiga's seem to be the choice, largely because it has dedicated
sound and video chips, so the cpu can be used for everything else.
Here's a list of the most used synths:
Korg wave station
Yamaha sy77 and sy99
Roland TR-727 (latin)
Roland TR-808 (techno)
Roland TR-909 (hardcore)
Roland MC-202
Roland SH-101
Roland TB-303
M-1
Prophet
Roland Juno 1,2
Roland Juno 106
Roland JV-880 (with vintage synth board)
Roland JD-800
Emu Procussion
