tugobot interview #2 : Jeff Mills 

One of the most gracefully ageing artists around. Compare his constant attempt to move things forward to the retrospective nostalgia of some of the 70s rock bands who are still boring people to death

Saw Jeff mills in the Orbit Morley in the 90s...wish I could go back there again...The best times ever.

Jeff mills, the best knees in the industry

He lives and breathes this stuff. Have to respect a producer so engrossed in his craft. Mixing skills are untouchable. I've seen him mix 4 crates of 12" in a 2 hour set. He doesn't need a reason to do what he does. Nice work Jeff!

jeff mills,one of the greatest philosophers of our time.this man inspires me,so much can be learned from his music and his mind.

Professor Mills always fascinating, deep stuff!

In few words, Mr. Mills has stated the philosophy of creativity. The scientific method of musicality.

The great man is other worldly

Jeff Mills is a God... I can't describe him and his music in any other way.

I intrinsically enjoy the way Jeff Mills describes the craft of his music, it’s purpose and message. Great Stuff

He really is an alien totally agree.

Jeff Mills, Derrick May, Kevin Susnderson and the creator of Detroit techno Juan Atkins!!! They were my inspiration.

Thanks Jeff Mills for getting me into DJing, The Wizard from the D, still doing what he do best!!!

Agree! The no cell-phone rule at Berghain rocks..

such a deep dude

The beautiful thing about electronic music is that there are no idols ! No big band mentalities nor heros. There have been, and there will be many great music men and women! Idolising individualls is against the music and the creator of the musicmakers!

Don't ever stop , Jeff !

A true visionary. He comes from the real World of electronic music. The current scene is a fat bloated blob..

Brilliant visionary

sweetest voice and smile

Massive respect to Jeff, sticking to his guns for all these years. Personally, I lost interest for a while (call me shallow). I come back and he's making his best music ever.

he can take you to faraway places that im sure no alien can, that tribal mechanised rhythems locked in from distant ansesters. love it

deeply inspiring

This is a real legend.

No doubt that is one of the most legitimate representatives of what is today music

love jeff mills-what a nice guy : )

Mills literally is that brother who made it a point to show that blacks can be just as futuristic or cutting edge like their past influences such as Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Yello Magic, Moroder etc... he blows the whole negative perception of us not being interested or capable of doing pure electronic music out of the window. But sadly his name and music isn’t as visible to the masses like most EDM producers are these days. Which hey! maybe that’s good thing :)

Put down your phones and experience the moment.

The Wizard 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Great interview Thank U 👊💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Love how he references Kraftwerk's Tour de France

The artist. The wizard.

Great great great, thanx thanx thanx!!!

9:22 words of true artist

The most important man.

Jeff is a hero

He does look a bit ALIEN in this interview sometimes !!!!!

at 7:39 he hears the drum

DOES ANY ONE REMBER WHAT MIXER THAT IS THAT HE IS ROCKING ON...? I REMEMBER SEEING THEM...

Jeff Mills looks like an alien, fitting for the genre he pioneered.

viva el techno de detroit y jeff mills

Hare Mills Hare Mills Hare Hare Mills Mills

he is the face of techno

He says he doesn't want to hear other producers music, but he plays plenty of other producers tracks other than his own. I'm a bit confused of what he's conveying.

"if i play snares and claps the people will raise their hands, it gets a little predictable" lol

Wish he would of elaborated on what he means by moving things forward. Little too obscure for understanding it.

what is with the stage???? Is he kneeling????

is more like a show rather then a technoi party from back in the dazs.. anzwhere though not onlz dtriot...!

jeff "god" mills

the god-father of techno...

Or it could be someone wanting to hold on to a beautiful moment forever...... just sayin.

i count a hundred iph0nes..!

Turn off the phones...

what did he say? I never understood any of it.

prolly so he can hear better.

jeff is awesome, but why the heck DJ on the floor. Looks funny.

Welcome to the modern dance scene. It sux.

another level......only for intelligent people¡¡¡

the fucking cell phones everywhere... no one listens.... no one really enjoys... fuck it.

Never really explained anything other than a weird dream hes had. Seen him live and not to sure about his style. Ive been around for years listened to nearly everything techno has but i find his style to repetitive and raw.
