erm, maybe because I havn't lived in Germany for over a year, live in the UK now and have a head full of polish..

what, am I not allowed to write in my own language now ???

[Mark Hawkins]

ok, noch mal, auf deutsch, ist schwer fuer mich jetzt zu deusche schreiben, mein kopf ist ganz voll mit polnisch..

hrhr i guess it's alright for the majority of the ocb members if continue writing in english. for all those who don't really understand what ur talking about those who do can translate. i actually recognized that my english sucks as well

[Mark Hawkins]

Yeah, my german really sucks right now to be honest, I'm in Poland for the month, and that is where I am other than in england these days, I havn't been in germany since may, and that was just in Frankfurt airport, so yeah, wenn du nicht benuzst, du vergesst...

[!3un|<er!3ewo|]

but on the other side if u have to speak german for some reason a longer time u get right back in there and it is also funny to read ur german ^^ ( it is probably the same for you to read my english ). i would like to hear u talking in german. maybe u could make some vocals in german with this nice london ?dialect?

[Mark Hawkins]

hmm.. bit late for me now to do that.. maybe you will get vocals soon.. maybe I will give up and write electro house if I don't sell this album who knows...

[schizophren]

shit mein english ist voll fürn arsch


aber sehr grosser fan von hawkins habe alle pplatten bis auf zwei

[Mark Hawkins]

the quality is probably well shit anyway

I just re-read the below before I posted it, and I don't want to come across like really bitter or anything. thanks for the appreciation of the music Fast_mo, that is, above all else, the most important thing, people appreciating music, it's a very frustrating time right now, especially when music has to be marketed so much to be sold

Nothing personal, but I'm not really open to even think about remixes, I'm not into this hard hakke osttek sound, despite the fact that I may have made a few records like that in the past, i listen back to them now and think I really wish I hadn't released many of them to be honest.. I should have just made ctrl alt delete and left it at that really, moved on and done something different.. I cringe at being associated with that whole "wonky" scene now.. If I release any more music at all after this, it will be under another name, completely undercover, as I have a problem now with people thinking that's ALL I can do, when that is a little unfair really.. I mean I never did whole e.p.s of 4/4 stuff, there were always deeper pieces on my releases. I feel like that was never quite acknowleged.. but this is what happens when you get pidgeonholed into a genre..

and that just about sums up the scene to me right now, that I mention that someone ripped my album and put it on soulseek, and the first reply get is that someone wants to remix a track from the album... again, nothing personal Fast-mo, but why do you want to remix one of my trax? is there something you don't like about the original?

it's like a lot of these compilation e.p.s around these days, where you get a cool track from a name artist, and then 3 other trax, nowhere near as good from people associated with the label.. I mean what is that? do these people expect some fame or fortune from being associated with this bigger name?
again, don't take any of this personally, I accept that you are probably genuinely into it all for the love and that reason alone, just from the viewpoint I have, and from what I've seen over the past 10 years, it's very easy to become cynical.

everyone downloading, both music and music software, and we rapidly head for the point of musical "grey goo" where everyone has every album and 12' that ever existed, plus 500 self produced trax that are never any better than average.

this is not a personal dig at anyone, especially you fast_mo, just an observation of the way things have gone in the past ten years, things that are very dear to my heart, that have been lost.. I don't want to sound bitter, but I'm feeling my time is over as far as techno is concerned...

[fastMo]

uff ...okay...I gather that...of course, you must go your own way...but your Sound was, and is the best! Thanks for your answer!

best greetings fastMo

I just revamped the crime home page, the label won't be startign again, but there will be a lot of archived sets, and an mp3 shop coming soon.. I actually re-mastered the Automatic 06 trax the other day so expect to be able to get ahold of these as 320kb/s mp3s and wavs in the near future!!

Ich habe so ebend die crime-prod. hompage überarbeitet. Das Label wird nicht nochmal belebt. Heißt: es werden keine neuen Veröffentlichungen mehr kommen.
Aber demnächst werden eine Menge archivierter Sets und ein mp3-shop zur Verfügung stehen. Ich habe sogar den Automatic06 track für euch ge-remastered und in naher zukunft werden euch dann 320kb/s mp3's und wav dateien erwarten!!!!
