Are you suggesting in any way that I somehow needed encouragement to be unusually cruel and obnoxious?

Apologies mate you are right no need for personal insults, but I do feel that when someone is contributing to the scene of such a small genre of music we should support them not slag their music off and that was what I was reacting to in your words. Hadfloor are a big influence on acid techno noone denies that , Pete is just saying the genre developed after that, no need to slate his tunes (man).
Now join hands everyone :
"cum bi ya my lord cum by yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
Note to self : do not post online whilst drunk ......
Apologies accepted Gus,
The thing you have to understand about acidtrash is, he has nothing but total contempt for the scene.
I once called him a total disgrace to the acid techno scene due to his racism and extreme right wing views, blogging for the BNP etc. The response i got implied i was some sort of clueless idiot for not recognizing the Stirling contribution he had made to the scene, as if he was some kind of acid techno hero.
Well i'd never heard of him and i was heavily into the acid techno scene since i stumbled into the side room at the rocket, Holloway road at a megadog back in 93 /94 and heard the liberators tearing the place apart. After that i was a regular at the m11 link road squat parties, the tyson st/ theatre factory parties in dalston, Euston hospital, etc etc etc. I am hardly a clueless idiot when it came to Acid techno.
I genuinely think his formulaic, paint by numbers, 160 bpm verging on hard dance, acid techno efforts reflect his contempt and is doing more harm than good for the scene i used to live for due to its banality and complete lack of imagination.
Soulless and insulting
By the way how do you edit your signature ?
By the way what you said about Petes tunes is complete is erroneous . He actually does some unusual things in his tunes which is why I like them. As someone who also makes experimental and electroacoustic music and has a degree in "sonic art" id say my opinion on original elements in music is worth something. I would say SUF recent treleases are much more formulaic and designed to get money - his tubnes however are free to all . I suspect you are slagging his tunes off for personal reasons not musical ones .
just my 2cs. Perhaps you two wound each other up in the past ?
