I'm wondering why there isn't more long term collaborative efforts in techno. Yes.. I know there are some.. (and I can already see people coming out of the woodwork here mentioning random names).. but overall there very few dj/producer teams. As I'm mentioned in previous posts, of late I'm getting deeper into the breaks scene and 'over in that camp' well over half of the successful producers/dj's are teams of 2.... And not just for a single release.. I'm taking life long associations. Releasing tracks together, playing dj or live sets together.. etc.. . Techno is far more of an individualistic group (with the odd random collaboration here and there)
I think a lot of original ideas can come out of a group effort. I really think that techno suffers from not having more.
Thoughts?
