What does techno mean to you?

Post by helix » Tue Feb 16, 2010 12:13 am

To me, if I hear the term "techno", the first music that comes to mind is what a lot of people would call "hard techno"



Aside from techno's rich history, when someone talks about techno, what's the first thing that comes to your mind?
Minimal techno? Mnml techno? Hard techno? Tekno? Dub techno? Acid techno?

I know this is pretty much just the cheeziest of all trance, but fuck it, techno remix just makes it sound so much funnier.

robert hood, jeff mills, juan atkins, jim masters, dereck may, carlos rios, carl craig, ben klock, surgeon, ben sims, black dog, basic channel, plastikman, dave clark, billy nasty.

Its basically when i took a real interest in music, going to techno nights in a dingy as fuck club called subway in aberdeen, getting mashed and dancing all weekend. Then going to edinburgh for nights at the venue and the carlton studios. I've had some of the best times of my life with a techno soundtrack so it means quite a lot to me i suppose.
