I've had enough.
Being from Latin Descent I find it borderline offensive.

cultural appropriation!
it's the imperialist way!
i'm just waiting for the day when someone combines schranz with riverdance...
That's like saying "being English, I strongly object to Four Tet's use of Morris Dancing music"...Quote:

Schranze - Straight, military, rigid, marching, fist pounding, on the beat tunage.
The two go together like Burt Bacharach and atari teenage riot.
yeah but that's what makes it so good! come on get with the program!

its almost like polyrhythms, fitting one time signature and working it against another. regarding the track, to me its not too dissimilar to beyers remix of manipulations which was a classic in its time (probably got a lot of slatting as well!!) i dont mind it, i'd dance to it, but i would never buy it!
juxtaposition is fine, I`m all for experimentation
However some things just don`t work.
Latin takes the rigidity and force away from schranze.
And schranze rips out all of the funk and swing from latin.
They don`t complement each other.
Nor do they grate together in an interesting dissonant way.
And you know it you monkey:)
what was it derrick may said about kraftwerk? i think it was that they were so unfunky, they were funky.
i'm not saying that about schranz, of course, as i personally find it as rigid as you do...but it does show that the concept of "funk" is pretty damned subjective...
Well, I don`t exactly wanna bash schranz here.
I mean, when it is done properly, it`s pounding, angry, screaming aggressive and driving.
But bad unimaginative schranz is what I moan about, hard for hards sake.
And when I said unfunky, I just mean rigid, to me, funk is something that makes you shake your ass, and dance from the hip, rather than from the upper body.
