The recent dancefloor reaction to techno.

**djfase** · 20-11-2005, 09:57 PM

I personally think it is cos ppl are becoming bored with other types of music and that there are many different forms of techno which makes them interested.

Uve got minimal, hard, acid and the more experimental stuff, so there is choice for all tastes.

The more dance minded ppl who have listened to other music but not techno are probably wondering why techno is still rolling along and changing, while their fav sound, for instance happy hardcore, is becoming stagnent and boring making them less interested.

Djfase you made a good point.

Whilst people bemoan the changing face of techno, it is this that has allowed new styles to be created and occasionally being taken to new audiences. Something like Happy Hardcore never really changes, it can get a bit faster or a bit trancier.

So many things I consider to be techno can hook people in straight away, it doesn't have to be at light speed, just funky and/or hard. Vitalic, T. Raumschmiere, Tiga, Matt Dear...... and of these people can appeal and they all have different sounds, yeah some are a bit housey but Techno has always swallowed up various influences and spat it out in a squidgy mush.

I think Mark EG said it on a different thread, but if you set out to make a Techno track it'll probably be shit (not exact quote I know). If you set out to make something based around your influences from multiple genres you might end up with something original. Its all derivitive at the end of the day, can't escape that.

I think i've lost my original point which was the changing face of techno allows dancefloors to temporarily get into the sound and then follow it up if they so wish.

We have a saying in Nottingham...

"Everybody likes Techno. Some of them just don't know it yet."

This has been proven true over time in every single case.

Agreed

**djfurness** · 22-11-2005, 04:49 PM
