If you mean my record collection... mostly just techno vinyl, mostly hard stuff you wouldn't find in a normal shop😬

Yeah, but not those kinds 😁
...

man, that mnml guy... he'll probably burn out in a year or two too, honestly, looks like he's already starting to slip

Christian Hughes92 said:btw, regarding the tracks... there’s always a crowd there playing what's trendy just because it's cool, or half the people at a techno rave go just because it's "in." At the start of the 2000s, it felt like everyone was just following the pack. You had those crowds from the club scene heading straight to an afterparty at my buddy's place in 🙄. Every single person would show up to a party without having a clue what they were actually listening to; they just wanted to be there. Luckily, the stuff I dig has stayed underground... you really have to love it to get it, so we rarely see even 200 of us together at a single show.

Not gonna bother responding, honestly don't have the energy to argue over nothing.

But I know what I listen to and why, and trust me, it definitely isn't because it's some trendy trend...

Carl Mendoza87 said:And I don't get him either

so what part didn't you get 🤷 because you're just talking nonsense again... chill out, don't dig your own grave like that

Interesting theory. Basically, if you think it sounds good, it’s top-tier. If everyone else is listening to it, it’s garbage 👍 that's just how it works

Look, I'm not even gonna argue with you. It seems like your IQ is barely hitting the minimum required to function, so you're just talking nonsense...

Look, maybe you think I have bad taste, but someone else might disagree. To you, it’s an insult, but to others, it isn't...

And just because I don't get him doesn't mean you understand hard techno or schranz, just because you aren't into it either...

So please, just explain to me what "minimal" actually is...

Kröcher and Liebing aren't even worth my time now, let alone being legends...

As for minimal, I wouldn't even call it techno. There are a few tracks that hit okay, and a couple of minimal producers or DJs I actually dig...
I'm not hating on it, I'm just saying it's not my vibe, especially that repetitive plink-plonk stuff where you don't get even ten seconds of actual melody in a five-minute track.
I'm not trashing it any more than I would any other genre I'm not into. Everyone's got their own taste, and you can't really argue with that...

Christian Hughes92 said:Hold up, if my math is right, you've been keeping up with electronic music since you were 8?...

Yeah, basically jumped from 8 to 9 by diving into house and trance, then around 12 I got into Techno—you know, Cox, Hawtin, Vath, Clarke and the crew 😍. Lately I've moved toward trance and hardtek, though I still dig Techno in general (just nothing minimal)...

Angela Morales said:And yeah, Christian Hughes92 put it perfectly—we shouldn't even let people born after '90 have a say in this debate at all.

True, but I still think they deserve a vote in this too!!

I was born in '91, and since basically '99 or '00, I've been deep into electronic music, mostly Techno (no minimal for me, that just isn't Techno 😁 ) so I pretty much know my stuff...

So I see a lot of smart 😬 hanging out here... check out High Tech School. It does a killer job breaking down the early days of techno—you can call it whatever you want, but this one focuses on the German scene

Also, that Universal Techno doc is pretty solid too 😉

Here are a few good ones to watch 😉

how'd they switch from techno to klopot 😂

@northerntrucker85:
Look, what you're talking about here is Detroit techno, not just plain old techno 😉

And yeah, mixes aren't banned, but since EPs and LPs are, you can totally drop links to DJ sets

@briskbear51
It used to be techno back in the day, but things have changed

Oh, and those guys you mentioned—Clarke, Beyer, and the rest—they're all doing fake minimal now, just basic plink-plonk stuff
