Jeff Mills is a busy man, usually travelling around the world to play this unique brand of in your face techno but Azuli drafted him to create a 2CD of classics. What's on it. When is it released?
Snatching the best 45 second segments of records at breakneck speed, Mills slender hands flicker atop mixer's consoles at synapse pulsing speed, causing untold waves of euphoria across the globe and often in front of 1,000s and 1,000s of people. In fact it would be impossible not to talk about the man in little more than clichéd superlatives. It would be suffice to say that as both an artist and a DJ Mills is unassailable and in a league of his own. If Mills played golf he'd be Tiger Woods. If he chanced his arm at racing motors then Schumacher would be choking on his fumes. Yet Mills remains as driven today as the first time he had a go on his older brother record decks. His seemingly unquenchable thirst to push forward as an artist, deejay, composer, record label manager and conceptualist are the result of a punishing schedule that few could keep up with, let alone maintain. And still he continues to pursue the musical dream within, travelling the world, producing, creating, deejaying and raising the stakes. Revered and respected by his peers, clubbers and music lovers alike he has made the dance an artform. A means of intellectual expression as well as an elevated rush of bassline reaction. From party loving hedonists to pontificating theorists, Mills communicates from the dancefloor to the art gallery at the flick of a switch.
It was perhaps somewhat prophetic that the first record Mills and 'Mad' Mike Banks released on Underground Resistance was the vocal house anthem 'Living For The Night' (1991). A mantra for the life he has continued to lead since the early 1980s, surviving on snatches of sleep between planes, trains, hotels and clubs. "Post Final Cut (Mills late 80s industrial band), at the beginning of UR, I think I must have slept about 4 hours a night," recalls Mills. "I never went home. We were in the studio constantly and my parents became really concerned about what I was doing." From here on sleep remains a luxury that Mills has had little time for. From such a long history and knowledge of music Mills's influences stretch far and wide. For many Jeff Mills equals techno but as you are about to see from this fine genre spanning collection of personal inspirations, Jeff Mills is much more than that. From funk, boogie, soul, jazz, experimental electronica, house and well techno (why not) Jeff Mills has focused hisown kaleidoscopic prism into a well-honed beam of electronic futurism. Just as Mills and Banks had sharpened their musical and business acumen from the musical legacy of their harsh Detroit surroundings so does this collection highlight the vibrancy, warmth, funk and feeling that emanates from a hard city full of soul. To grasp the future you need to understand the past…
