D.A.V.E the Drummer and Andy farley.....your kiddin me on?
it's true, it doesnt bother me but i know it does some people, i dont see why though
NO COMMENT ;)
hmmm... not more chin stroking by techno purists again. I wish people would listen to tracks before they start shouting about Hard House producers like they are a dirty word.
like I said, I havent heard the track so no comment.
such reserve there downie. i wouldnt rant 'thats shit that is!' as i've never heard it. but all i know is that i've heard a lot of dave the drummer, and i've put up with a lot of andy farley when we sold it in my old record shop. summed up that collaboration makes me wince at the potential out come. i'm not a big fan of acid techno anymore, but i have a hell of a lot of respect for dave the drummer and think he's a top producer. i can just imagine, daves quality patterns and productions over shit noises and hoovers. i havent heard it but it still sends a shiver down my spine at the thought of someone so cool, mixing it with a potential cheese monster.
It's alot more Henry than Farley luckily Tony ;) I don't like M.B.S. too much with the ringing acid sort of synth and the sample, it would certainly work at the right party tho... typical super high quality production from the drummer boy. The other track, "Don't Stop the Groove", is quite kewl indeed :cool: Groovin' (as the name would suggest) bassline with tough funkin' percussion and quality vocal sample work... I dig the little breaks and drops too.. way better than I thought the collaboration would turn out :hmm:
sounds like stripper music! :love:
Will have to check this one out... :rambo:
word!Quote:

Andy Farley has started a techno night in Birmingham on sunday nights. I've heard him play techno and he's quality. I was chatting to him about it and he prefers playing it.
cant see how someone that plays that cheesy shite that he does can understand fully understand techno...... or is it the other way about???Quote:

If you think about it, who gives a fu*k whos playing techno? Surely its a good thing that more people can listen to techno, even if its being played by a 'cheesy bandwagon jumping DJ'? I love my techno, and it does make me cringe sometimes when I see some awesome techno producers colaborating with someone whos been spinning hardhouse for years, but I for one want more people to get into techno. Theres the arguement that techno will become comercial, etc...Bollocks! Techno is, and as far as I can see will always be, the true sound of the underground. This selling out arguement is bullshit. The hard trance / hardstyle heads slated Mark EG for playing at Slinky & Tidy events, but as Mark said, hes going to these events to open some peoples minds & if he comes away from one of those events & someone enjoyed what he played & wants to look into the sound further thats a positive & good thing. I dont think there are enough techno events in the UK and if I can hear more techno out and about, even if its by someone seen as 'cheesy' i will be happy. Im not going to forget my techno roots though. Is it time we stopped slating these 'bandwagon jumpers' and let them be introduced to our world? Techno will NEVER sell out...But it could grow. Ok thats enough from me. You may all now get me in a group headlock, poke me in the eyes, write 'tidy trax lover' on my face in permanent marker & kick me out of the techno forum with my trousers round my ankles... ;)
Mon the carebears!!
:crackup:
NA...I AGRRE I WOULD RATHER MORE WERE INTO TECHNO...BUT NOT THESE FOLK...Quote:

and i dont want to see them start doing it to techno....mind you thers toooo many techno heads thatll still stay true....
I hear what yer saying likes but i got into without any help from ministry of sound.........folk that like this to me cant runderstand what techno is about. it aint just music...its a way of life.
MON the furry ruksaks.Quote:

Im seeing more & more DJ's playing techno in their sets, and it does bother me a little, but it could be a good thing, with people who always thought 'techno' was 300bpm, being introduced to fresh sounds
...anyway, I have to go and masterbate all over my Paul Glazby CD's now whilst sucking my dummy and wearing furry boots & plenty of neon clothing. ;) :lol:
Ive never seen Farley and co mix techno to techno...Always hard house then drop a phat techno tune in the middle of the set, then back to the hard house? I remember he was playing cheesy hard house then dropped anphetamine/cocaine into his set :doh:
Anyway techno is defo picking up around these parts and I can see it continuing to do so, and if converting ppl means colloborating with hard house djs on hard house labels..then so be it. Its been said on here before, If you like the tune buy it! Does it really matter what label its on?
i agree (well aprt from them being stale at the moment- they always been pretty stale-not all o them but most)Quote:

Thers too many of them that will just do whatever they think is the "in" thing, than just do what THEY want......ill play anystyle if i like the sound....
Id would like them all to see what techno is really about and ditch this shite but to be honest i cant see them doing it..........i mean thats no what judge played last week on radio one is it???
Before you start slating someone listen to them first. He has been playing for 15 so years and roots were from techno.Quote:

Listen to KRSONE getting philosophical and preaching about what hiphop is......i see techno in the same way..... its not just music, its a whole scene.
Some cheesy listening crasherkid listing to techno and then goes "here im into techno now" aint a tek head.
I have heard a mix or two by him-well im pretty sure it was him...Quote:

Nelly = the wank shit
Same goes for techno...
Lars Klein = the real shit
Fergie = the wank shit
Ok, fair enough...BUT! It might make that cyber geek want to find out a bit more about techno. Hey, he might even start mixing it. He could be an awesome DJ. He could start producing. He could become world famous. You might buy his records. Then you find out a bit about this geezers past. Would he be slagged because he wasn't 'techno enough' as he got into techno through Fergie / Farley / Jules? Would that stop you buying his tunes? We all got into techno in our own ways man. I was a hardcore head before I heard some 'real' techno played by Ribbz at Helter Skelter. Does that make me a bandwagon jumper? I moved from hardcore to techno. Fu*k me, DAVE the Drummer moved from soft rock or summit to techno didnt he?!? :lol:Quote:

And i wouldnt boycoat them because of this--- if they were on some good techno sheeeeit. I would give them a slagging tho.....fuk ive slagged myself fo this.
BUT-Whilst they're still doing cheesy shit they aint getting no respect from me. And they aint fukin techno.
So what did you used to listen to before you were 'converted' to techno? Are you ashamed of what you used to listen to or summit? (ok your aloud to be ashamed if it was Chaz & Dave). I used to listen to all sorts, still do. Im not ashamed & im not a music snob. Good music is good music at the end of the day. Hell, Chaz & Dave even released 1 or 2 I quite liked...
Explain? :eh: If I was someone who has just fallen in love with techno after hearing an Andy Farly 'techno' set & I wanted to look into this new found sound...How could I become 'techno'?Quote:

This was mainly cos of the folk i went about wi..i just went out for the laugh really.....never gave a fuk too much about the tunes.
then maybe 4 years ago i got into techno and instantly knew this shit was for me.........never had any of the cheese..
I like all music tho.....from radiohead/nirvanna/ placebo....through to drum an bass...but i can spot cheese...and fake folk. Ill admit i like a few justin timberlake tracks but i know it aint real.and is sell out cheesy pish..so even tho i do like it, i wouldnt listen to it.
well if you have to ask .......i aint gonna tell you......Quote:

Now techno is probably what i listen to/spin most...
that does NOT answer the question! if someone is reading this and doesn't understand & wants to, thats not much help...Quote:

Now KRS-One, now you've been quoted as saying that
rap is something we do, hip-hop is something you live.
{KRS} Yes!
{interviewer}
Explain that to us please.
{KRS-One}
Well, well, today hip-hop, we are advocating that hip-hop is not,
just a music, it is an attitude, it is an awareness, it is a way
to view the world. So rap music, is something we do, but HIP-HOP,
is something we live. And we look at hip-hop, in it's 9 elements;
which is breaking, emceeing, graffiti art, deejaying, beatboxing,
street fashion, street language, street knowledge, and street
entrepenurialism - trade and business. And uhh, that's where y'know
that's the hip-hop that that that we're about.
