hi there, excuses for this this crosspost. this mail is to inform and attend you to that the site of the lowlands mailing list has moved. the (new) site is located at http://www.sonik.demon.nl/lowlands/ discographies, shops, nightlife, links, archives, .. ===== Lowlands is a mailing list about techno culture in The Netherlands. It was orignally set up by Hans Veneman (respect!) in 1994, after the release of the same named compilation of the Amsterdam based label, 100% Pure. Since the emerging evolution of house/techno late eighties, dutch labels and artists have come and go. Amsterdam' Lower East Side (Fierce Ruling Diva, 2000 and One, Pallas, Frequency) and Go Bang! (D Shake, Quazar) played important roles in the beginning. Eindhoven' Djax-Up-Beats put the Netherlands definitely on 'the techno map', with releases by Terrace (Stefan Robbers), Trance Induction (Tjeerd Verbeek) and Random XS (Arno Peeters, Sander Friedeman). Around 1992 more labels arose bringing new talents. Labels like Eevo Lute (Florence, Wladimir M., Max 404, Ross 154, David Caron), U-Trax (PA Presents.., The Connection Machine), Deviate (Human Beings, PA Presents..), Prime, See Saw (The Melody, Like A Tim), Erik van den Broek' Shiver, Bunker (Unit Moebius, Rude 66), 100% Pure (2000 and One, Sterac) and a lot of labels based in The Hague, like Acid Planet, Inter-Ference, Reference, Viewlexx. Since then a lot of dutch artists also went 'global', releasing on foreign respected quality labels, like Speedy J (Plus 8, Warp, NovaMute), Florence (Planet E), Orlando Voorn (KMS, Fragile), Thee J. Johanz (Irdial), Unit Moebius (Disko B, KK Records), Max 404 (Universal Language), Sensurreal (Op-Art), and still like lately Fastgraph through Detroit' Monoplaza, Like A Tim (Geist, Rephlex) and I-f via Interdimensional Transmissions and Disko B. Sharing knowledge and opinions about these developments, labels and artists that is what lowlands should be about. And besides it's of course also about dutch shops, parties and dj's, as part of the scene playing a major important role. There is a Lowlands homepage: http://www.sonik.demon.nl/lowlands/ On the page you can find the archives of the list as well as info about Dutch techno labels & artists and an agenda.
