ok... I know alot of you guys dont like techno here... like trance and mainstream dance music... and I also know alot of you dont like mainstream pop... the whole of MTV's line up is an example... so... if you have to be in a place that has music... and the only choice is techno, or pop... what would it be? I personally dont have too much of a problem with techno... but I dont listen to it normally... and I dont buy it, and I dont think its anything special... so i vote for techno... what do YOU vote for? |
||||||||
|

What is pop? Define pop? Popular music... Techno is pop. yeah I hate TRL and all that mainstream shite and I hate techno. |
||||||||
|

pop = poop techno = the stupid bass noise comming from my neighbors apartment |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Techno anyday.....but not that pop techno e.g. those new techno elvis songs....so bad...so very very bad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought that elvis jxl wasnt too bad, actually |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where would you put sven väth btw? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see techno as stuff like lfo, plastikman, speedy j, etc.. which isn't bad at all. now dance music vs pop i'd probably chose dance music, but that's already pop anyways |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Junktion: Yeah LOL ;) that was pretty accurate. But when the stupid bass noise comming out from my neighbors apartment I use to give em back the same medicine....54 CYMRU BEATS ON MAX VOLUME!!!!... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good techno |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How could u say that.....that sort of music is the work of the devil...thats right BARBRA STREISAND!!!!!! |

METAL! Oh, wait, there was no metal enlisted down there. Uhm, well, obviously "pop" and "techno" need to be defined more precisely... Pop is a broad category. It includes Nick Cave as well as Britney Spears as well as Mano Negra as well as Enrique Iglesias. Just as "techno" includes UR/ Kevin saunderson/ Derrick May/ Jeff Mills as well as Plastikman, Christian Vogel, Classics-era Aphex Twin, Thomas Brinkmann, Pan Sonic, Kit Clayton, Thomas Jirku etc. I can't choose between them, I choose good bits of both categories for my personal convenience. |

i like christian vogel more than nick cave ;) seriously it is difficult to compare this two styles- pop is "warmth", techno is "frost". what do you like more? warmth or frost? |

Pop is like melted sugar that have lied in the sun for 2 weeks...with flyes and animals all over. Techno is like those cheap plastic sunglasses you buy on vacations. They look cool when you buy them, but after a while you put them away. |

Well, techno is how I got into the different styles of electronic music, so I'd have to say Techno. But theres a lot of bad techno as well, and I do like some pop songs. I'm not afraid to say I really like Britney Spear's Slave4U!! Some of the lyrics are cringe worthy though. And that's the only Britney I like by the way!! And I don't mind Kylie either. People have said before that Kylie has been to Rephlex gigs!!! I'd rather be in a good techno room rather than bad pop. Though I would rather be in a good pop room rather than bad techno. And if the choice was between bad techno and bad pop I'd choose bad pop because at least it would be good to make fun of it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if i must choose..hmm....banjo music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so zeus we have a choice of techno or BAD pop,well the answers simple,I wouldnt go into those clubs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought bjork was pop |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah the music-scene has changed a lot.... nsync and britney spears exist... i go tekkno.. |
||||||||

Techno is dead. It was swollowed up by the media, epecially the music media who applied the term techno to the rash of shite dance tunes in the early to mid 90's. Techno was the IDM of its day...but it didn't have a stupid elitest title so it was easy for the media to use. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Uhm, yes. But there is still a lot of great techno around. Kit Clayton, Tomas Jirku. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Jeff Mills also. He keeps improving and was fantastic to begin with. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mtv-friendly r'n'b and rap are the worst imo (but the videos are so ridiculous that they're funny... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah Derrick May, Derxciya etc etc thats good techno... Windowlicker, Outcast etc thats good pop... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The new Ashanti (or however you spell it) video that is the total ripoff of Goodfellas :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Oldscool aphex good techno Radiohead good pop ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm a bit confused about your definitions of techno..... I always thought techno was any experimental electronic music, a la aphex and squarepusher? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If u say that u like techno where im at, they gonna punch u in the FACE straight up and DOWN!!! Techno sounds so gay. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ummm. . . . okay, have you guys forgotten that Aphex Twin IIISSSSSS techno for god sakes!!! And fuck already don't call it "techno" that's what ignorant preps who don't know shit about it, call it. Call it electronica, please. And I would go with electronica, then. It's got way more depth, variety, and overall there's more quality in electronica than there is in most pop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Electronica is and always will be my passion. Every aspect of it, every genre (house, trance, electro, drum and bass, drill and bass, tech-step, progressive house, acid, acid house, goa trance, intelligent dance music, break-beat, big-beat, hard-house). I LOVE it all!!! I love DJ Tiesto, Paul Oakenfold, and ATB (cheesy guys who you all surely hate), but I also love Aphex Twin, Autechre, and Boards of Canada. I am the epitome of open-mindedness. |

|
man what a pointless question |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Silence. They both suck. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ELECTRONICA (techno, as you guys foolishly call it) DOES NOT SUCK YOU IDIOTS!!! how many times to I have to say it, Aphex Twin IS electronica. He makes acid, drum and bass, and intelligent dance music, which are all sub-genres of electronica. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
okay I'm sorry for calling you idiots but it DOESN'T suck!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Electronica is such a stupid word/term. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Techno is even stupider. My best friend, he's got a new, better term, he just calls it "tech". It's shorter and easier to say than "electronica" or "electronic music", and it's cooler and not as preppy as "techno". |
