I've had enough.
Being from Latin Descent I find it borderline offensive.

[djshiva]

cultural appropriation!

it's the imperialist way!

[SlavikSvensk]

i'm just waiting for the day when someone combines schranz with riverdance...

[TechMouse]

Being from Latin Descent I find it borderline offensive.
That's like saying "being English, I strongly object to Four Tet's use of Morris Dancing music"...

[Tremor]

Remeber when Hardcore Salsa was huge last year? I couldn't escape that song.. and thought the same.. Should Europeans be using latin beats? But at the same time most my friends are latinos playing euro beats.. lol.

[Frank Dogshit]

hardcore salsa was awful....imo.

so wrong.

[Tremor]

I agree.. and there's like a jillion versions.. Seems like I heard it on every other mix last year.. :doh:

a bit cheesy and naff admittedly, but theres been worse atrocities against techno.

[dirty_bass]

I don`t get it.
Latin - essentially, funky, shuffley, loose, hip swinging music, that`s all in between the beat.

Schranze - Straight, military, rigid, marching, fist pounding, on the beat tunage.

The two go together like Burt Bacharach and atari teenage riot.

[fresh_an_funky_design]

yeah but that's what makes it so good! come on get with the program!

seriously though some one needs to incinerate all these shranz records

[TripleX]

what a load of crap :dontevengothere:

[MITA]

yup,me also dont like schranze with latino themes.

as someone above wrote,those two just dont go together...in my head,and hart.

no thanks,ive bought salsa when it came out ..blindely...such nice rhythm ruined by those vocals..pitty...that record is somewhere in my bulk now..wasted money.!@#$%

[koma]

i like lots of tunes by waldhaus & weichentechnik...
but this one ehhhh.. i like as much as ben sims manipulated (beyer remix)

My Point exactly.

[detfella]

well i havent got a problem with genres colliding, to me thats just another way to explore new sounds and make new discoveries. if the electrifying mojo hadn't mixed electronic sounds with funk maybe we'd never have seen electro & techno in the first place?

its almost like polyrhythms, fitting one time signature and working it against another. regarding the track, to me its not too dissimilar to beyers remix of manipulations which was a classic in its time (probably got a lot of slatting as well!!) i dont mind it, i'd dance to it, but i would never buy it!

[dirty_bass]

juxtaposition is fine, I`m all for experimentation
However some things just don`t work.

Latin takes the rigidity and force away from schranze.
And schranze rips out all of the funk and swing from latin.
They don`t complement each other.
Nor do they grate together in an interesting dissonant way.
And you know it you monkey:)

[SlavikSvensk]

what was it derrick may said about kraftwerk? i think it was that they were so unfunky, they were funky.

i'm not saying that about schranz, of course, as i personally find it as rigid as you do...but it does show that the concept of "funk" is pretty damned subjective...

[dirty_bass]

Well, I don`t exactly wanna bash schranz here.
I mean, when it is done properly, it`s pounding, angry, screaming aggressive and driving.
But bad unimaginative schranz is what I moan about, hard for hards sake.
And when I said unfunky, I just mean rigid, to me, funk is something that makes you shake your ass, and dance from the hip, rather than from the upper body.

[The Overfiend]

Or sureno shit holmes, you all get my point surely

[Tremor]

Ambient norteno and drumachi are comin up.. :cool:

[dan the acid man]

strawberries and cream, toast and marmalade, beer and nuts, fish 'n chips, all compliment each other so well.

schranz and latin music dont, its like beer and chocloate cake, like strawberries and custard, like fish n' gravy

Agreed. ;) I've heard some happy hardcore about on the same level as the above track. At least when the vocal loop is kicking it (or ruining it?).

well said

[jon connor]

yea sam good point but i must admit myself i do a bit of latin in techno if its done properly like the ben sims thing manipulated double on primate + marco baily etc, but however with schranz it sort of spoils the theme, i think wots happend here is a long train of robert natus bandwagon , hardcore salsa was massive for him so now i see many doods trying to follow suit but unfortunatly its not good enough. so i can understand your point but must admit i do love shaking my ass with my misses to a good latin techno track , again there is another point the women love it ;) :love:

[StoQ]

this kind of songs are like stuff on viva

[The Overfiend]

I'm not saying I am a hundred percent against any union between latin music and techno.
I am saying when done wrong, it is Asscheeks.

agreed ;) but when done right i must say its lovely stuff and great to dance to ;)

[BRADLEE]

Yeah I've heard a few good ones lately and a few really bad ones too. So for me it just depends on the track. Right Ant ;)

[TechMouse]

Cave - Street Carnival?

[eyeswithoutaface]

i find alot of Mark Williams tracks have just enough of that latin tinge at times to satisfy my needs as it were

[The Overfiend]

Understood everyone, but keep in mind, I am guilty of being very latin in my techno.
My point was Schranz, and latin themes.

over distorted car crash techno , somthing a bit like this chchchcchachahahachchchccha puke , green face squashed ears absolute crap that should be tossed in a skip taken to a tip and buried in a 400 foot deep whole in a quarry somewhere never to be seen or heard of again :lol: oh and ummmmmm not forgeting beeing pecked to peices by hungry rat faced seagles before buriel :twisted: :lol:

[el salvador]

but i think with the speeding up the vocal makes it sounding like comedy, but it is nots so funny :gutted:

[tekara]

sounds like a happy hardcore beat with a chipmunk timestretching job.....absolutely horrendous.

I dont usually show negativity but just curious who was the guy that had the nerves to release that track? And who were the distributors who had the nerve to distribute this track? And who were the shopowners that sold the distortion unit to this guy? His business must be burned down to the ground!

sorry got ahead of myself. But im not really into the whole Ricky Martin techno at the moment. 90% of the samples used dont even translate to anything in real portugese language. I once let my girlfriend listen to one of these tracks and she said it made absolutely no sense in portugese.

[The Overfiend]

[tekara]

"one of these tracks"....not that specific track.
