I mean... a lot of you like/love Analords ; btw Analords
sound like acid techno/house tracks. So you may like them.
Do you ?

i like techno and house.

Techno was what got me into dance music in the first place.

I also like house.

Both are good in the right environment.

Yeah, there are a lot of great tracks in both genres, but
I'm more specifically talking about acid techno &
house.

Define acid.

Do you mean like hardfloor/Plastikman type techno, or more
like free party squat music like the Smitten/Liberator vibe?

I'm sure plenty of people here were into acid, house, techno
and electro long before Aphex Twin released a record.

It's all part of the great spectrum of fine electronic dance
music, if anyone remotely appreciates electronica how could
you not like acid / house / techno and everything inbetween?

I absolutely love House music! Techno, not so much but I
don't mind the odd listen to it. It's a shame the genre
appears to have been shunned and rejected by most of the
general populous simply because Eminem rapped

"Moby you're too old, let go/nobody listens to Techno"


*sigh* even I find myself using other words to describe what
music I like if the question is posed. I don't know why but
it's almost embarassing to say "techno" now so House,
Trance, Acid and IDM it is..

Saying "nobody listens to techno" just shows how woefully
out of touch Eminem is. He's like a Hip Hop version of some
celebrity gossip magazine, dishing the dirt on people no one
remotely gives two hoots about. He's as qualified to
proclaim the death of Techno (or, whatever he meant by
Techno, ...rave music, "faggy" disco, it's all messed up in
his brain) as he is to state the definitive case for Inuit
madrigals.

i wouldn't even put Eminem and hip hop in the same sentence.
Even though i just did.

He's a hip hop version of Pete Waterman. Formulaic.

I like a more relaxed, laid back versions of house, like
Nuthre. I used to like rave, but it all seem so primitive to
me now, I don't imagine myself going to a techno/house party
with DJ's, whistles, stupid outfits, and sweaty people. No,
no. Rock/metal gigs are sooo much better.

And yes, it's very embarrassing to use the term
techno. The associations are usually obvious for
everybody. And I'm not surprised.

I totally agree, it's just sad that so many of his fans act
like pathetic 'maggots' attached to a host and listen to
everything he says and take it as truth. Someone recently
stated that Electronic music was supposed to be the music of
the 21st century and that it was a shame rap and hip-hop had
taken over-well really it's because people believe the
opinions of lowlifes like Eminem and 50 cent who probably
think that Kraftwerk is the company which makes dairy
products.

Eminem = (c)rap.

tell me about this culture. I don't know where you're from,
but perhaps it is different to where I'm from and have
experienced.

It's a tough issue. Let me say it another way. When I say
that I listen to techno music (sometimes i have to
say this, because usually nobody has a clue, when I say
IDM), I think "Autechre" etc., they think "love parade". I
can't give you a logical explanation... Usually, here, in
Poland, being an intelectual, a die-hard music lover, and a
"techno" fan at the same time is beyond people's
comprehension. Then again, IDM is techno... BUT at the same
time it's so much more... Fuck.

Yes.

Specifically Steel City Records from the 90's and whatever
Ritchie Hawtin is up to is always great. He's doing 5.1
surround stuff these days, little tweets dancing around your
head, new level shit.

Techno here isn't really about Love Parade and gurning your
tits off. For me and my friends it was always about the
music.

I was more into techno nights like those at the Orbit near
Leeds, where you would get the likes of Ken Ishii, Luke
Slater, etc. Or Atomic Jam in Birmingham where it was more
Dave Angel, Dave Clarke, Carl Craig etc.

More about the music (for me), though drugs do come into it.

I don't think of "Love Parade" if I think of Techno, I'd
think of "Love Parade" if someone said Euro Trance, but,
Techno... Techno's a catch all term that encompasses lots of
things, a term that's lost its original tight little genre
to become a broader reference to electronic music that isn't
easily catagorisable, it's a better than IDM that's for
sure, and anyone who says "Oh faggy shit" or similar
probably isn't an authority on music to begin with.

You'd better talk about "electronic music" or "electronica"
when it comes to Autechre, rather than "techno". Use
"techno" for techno.

hmmm detroit techno is a quite specific sub-genre. Strange
techno seems to have lost it's meaning now as a
result of newer and more detailed classifying terms for
electronic songs/artists.
