Recently, we have transcribed the entire film to prepare it for translations into other languages. Anyone looking to help us get the film to an international audience should reach out to Chris Sorro (chris@speakingincode.com). In the meantime, expect a German language version soon.

The movie stands up even more in print. It reads like a fiction film, including great dialogue like these scenes early on:

Gabor (aka Robag Wruhme): This one Scott this is Russian Water, this is not really water, this is Russian Water, its Vodka.
Amy (off camera): Oh really?
Gabor: Yeahhh!
Amy: Oh you’re serious!
Gabor: (laughs) It’s not a joke.
Amy: (tastes) Oh my god it is.

Robert Henke (aka Monolake): Welcome to the Synclavier Digital Audio System.  I’m so much addicted to these instruments as you could see. If you really want to talk to me you should probably put me out of this room.
Philip: Tie your hands behind your back.
Robert: And I’m not even stoned!

It is, for lack of a better word, “surreal” to see the film on paper, like it is a script. As the film makes its way to actual film reviewers (and not music fans), they seem to agree.

Antagony & Ecstasy: “”not just a probing music documentary but a magnificently touching personal diary.”

VenusZine: “artfully constructed and skillfully shot”

NBC New York blog also recently spoke with Co-Producer David Day. Read that interview here.

The latest Speaking in Code podcast has been released via the email list and the Facebook page, but here it is on squar3.com.

Speaking in Code Podcast 03 - Douglas Greed

Douglas Greed provides us this mix, a warm, sometimes strange DJ mix that combines a whole on of music from Greed, the Freude-Am-Tanzen family and others.

Robag: We have many people, and we are a family. And together we can achieve something special.

Greed is the one who walks us through Muna Club and introduces us to FAT. Greed takes us through FAT like Tobias Thomas does earlier.

Douglas: The Muna, it was originally built at the time of the Second World War to build rockets for the Nazis. … So sometimes there are up to 1,500 people at the venue here. You will see later, it’s one of the nicest clubs ever.

Tobias: Kompakt always tries to be honest and serious about the whole idea, the rave idea, the techno idea, the whole ’90s idea of changing the whole system of music.

We have also uploaded Thomas’ full 2 1/2 hour mix from the Speaking In Code after-party on February 14th, 2010, in conjuction with the Together Festival:

Michael Mayer (recently awarded #1 DJ mix of the 00 decade by Resident Advisor) is set to release Immer 3, his third in the “Forever” trilogy. He just played Cambridge, at Make It New, in an event that was a dream come true for some people in the Boston scene.

Amy (off camera): What do you think is different about this record store than other record stores in the world?
Michael Mayer: I think its very, very comprehensive regarding minimal techno.

One track on Immer 3 brought the house down at Make It New. Raudive’s “Slave” samples Grace Jones, who recently made quite a stir celebrating her 62nd birthday.

Michael also played a classic Italo Disco track, which appeared on one of our old sQuare sound compilations almost 5 years ago:

Mr. Flagio - “Take a Chance”

And while he didn’t play any of his own remixes (as far as we know), we can’t leave without linking to one of his classic remixes. A cover of Kylie Minogue’s “Slow”:
