Ingator II* -- Skyscratch (Mano Mano) Genre: Electronic Style: Techno Year: 1992 Cat# Tresor 5 Country: Germany One of my most favorite tracks of the rave era. Description below: Ingator is the alias used by Thomas Fehlman in this diligent but brash outflowing of dance energy. Fehlmann (of Sun Electric, The Orb and Erasure notoriety; also respected production work together with Moritz von Oswald as 3MB and a short-lived collaboration with Inga Humpe of 2 Raum Wohnung fame) shared his already released version of „Skyscratch" with the Underground Resistance crew who were enjoying artistic residency in Berlin. The resulting team work brought Detroit urgency to this club classic and a Tresor furiousness that blended all too well with Fehlmann's crisp production talents (yeah those are Miss Humpe's vocals on the Tresor Mix). Techno's blood, sweat and tears still ring on these remixes, with memories of Tresor's damp basement walls and the irresistable smell of innovation.

I was lucky enough to be home on a Tuesday night, sometime in August 1993, and record this off the radio and on to cassette. DJ Keoki was at the WNYU studios promoting a CD he created with the High Lonesome Sound System. I managed to record the entire time he was there, however, I am making available the cassette that demonstrates his finest, rather than what they did at the initial point of his visit, which was to play tracks from his CD. For added measure, I kept the radio banter (very funny stuff). Enjoy this rare recording of a premier "superstar" DJ of his day - Keoki.

I wrote this poem early 2011 after thinking about the Buddha's Fire Sermon. I thought about the sense of alienation I've felt from time to time over the years. I also thought about how this sense is all too common among adults who are worn down by their day to day struggle to survive and retain a measure of human dignity. I began to think that the one thing we are placed on this earth to do, and that is to live and to live as full and as best as we could. Sex and sensuality and spirit and the things that I feel drive most people, but often times most people repress themselves for whatever reason. The one final thought I had was that from a scientific standpoint, the makeup of our body has as its basis elements brought forth from the universe. Star dust. Then it clicked - I should never feel alienated, alone, disconnected from anyone or anything, ever. In all of us runs the vibration of the universe. The ancients understood this. OM.
