Punches you in your eye with great rage and furious answer for being so wrong about that.

Andre Walter is too good to be in that category.

Andre Walter produced Chris Liebing and Chris Liebing is the originator of the word schranz.

Why not go further, music is music is music is music.

And labels are for journalists, not music technologists.

I love it ALL. there's always something to be found in music, there's always something in any genre that can turn you on in every type of music - INCLUDING country, jonny cash anyone?

The best you can think is that to work with other musicians be they DJ's Bass Players, Guitarists is a journey and a pleasure.

the ones you learn from are your brothers and sisters and the ones who never learn are your lessons.

There are better ways to descibe music than pidgeonholing it.

Substance abuse, which just got played at the olympics could be described as acid techno minimal techno and detroit techno, but that wouldn't mean much to anyone. No one can ever really agree firmly what falls into what genre.

Better off finding labels or producers whose output you like.
Techno is ace, like dirty said - learn to love it all.
There are gems in every corner in every style.

I think your post was a bit annoying, that's what. What are you after? Full, detailed descriptions of every genre of techno? I like to share my knowledge when I can, but not with people who want to be spoon fed like you, as if we owe you fully written manual or something? Maybe I'm being harsh, but I saw no "please" or "thanks in advance" or anything like that, and then when you're given an answer you dismiss it instantly. I dunno, you don't come across as clueless as you let on which is why I wouldn't be too keen on dropping everything to help you. All the information is at your fingertips for God's sake.

You were given some info prior to this, and Buttman gave you a few names too. You go do the homework and find that shit out, listen to the bloody stuff, trace your way back (or ahead) and see what you find. Go to www.discogs.com, type some names in, look for Jeff Mills, Juan Atkins, Richie Hawtin, Plus 8, UR, Harthouse, R&S, Trax, Dance Mania, Baby Ford, Daniel Bell, Basic Channel, Cari Lekebusch, Hardfloor, Stay Up Forever, UR, Lenny Dee, Kevin Saunderson, Joey Beltram etc. etc. and see what happens ;)

Ah mate relax, it was half-hearted joke but also geniune curiosity and what makes what and some reference point, thats all :scratch:

Of course I am not totally alien to techno. I real would like to know what equipments are used to achieve a similiar sound to those subgenres, so I could go copy them :eyes: No but really if I want to do something with that music I would add my own spices. I really do want to know a good minimal artist, acid, and hard techno and even hardcore so I can go check them out and then completely slag them off here :cheese:

And I geniunely like to check different sounds to see if I am missing something grand because it's good to check everything out. I even gave psy-trance a try at juno :oops:

It takes a while to know all the characteristics that make up the sub genres. You just have to hear them on a regular basis. When I first got into electronic music everything was "techno" music. Now I realize a lot of the early stuff I was listening to wasn't techno at all, but breaks and drum 'n' bass. It takes spending a lot of time online listening to sound bytes at numerous websites, hangin' out with other DJ's, going to shows, etc.

16-02-2006, 08:59 PM
8+2=10, I'm not sure how serious you are being but, since nobody answered, a 303 is def a synth. It's the shortened term thrown around for a Roland TB-303. The Roland TB-303 is often associated with the sound which defines acid techno. As for genre names though, meh. Don't get too caught up in em. They're pretty much just marketting gimmicks nowadays.

If you ask me you're completely missing the point. Why should it be a case of thinking "well I want to make techno, so I'll need a 303, an 808, a synth and some samples"?

Well you know, I wasn't really trying to be too helpful although with the list I gave you you should have had a bit to work with. It's only a small random list, but not exclusively "best of 90's techno" as you put it.

I think your dead right with the whole "genre" thing..................... in my opinion, at the moment so many artists/dj's are producing and playing songs that are really uncharectaristic of that artist and the genre that he/she incorparates him/herself with!
the songs they would have first liked you to incorporate with their style initially with have and has changed, I'm all up for genre movement and change, but, in that the dj (you) finds a new genre to appeal to the larger audience and to broaden your knowledge............., however pointing out one genre, I do feel minimal (Mistress Barbara, Adam Beyer) is taking to strong a hold on the techno scene, to the point where I'm finding my usual techno/tech night's out boring......................note I play the odd minimal tune myself (Jeff Samuel, Sleeparchive), however its ruining a good night out, with its boring percussion and repetitive bass lines it's really beginning to get to me, even the tunes I like ...................I know Mark eg is all up for the non slaggin' of the genre but c'mon it's wreckin the head to the point where I want to give all 4/4 music a break.............opinions plz
