What version of ableton are you using Laughing Man?
I did have a look at the abletn video options
and I seem to remember it as being limited to playback only and that was it.
there is no " video track" for you to drop clips into
only a video window.
OK for Synch work
but not a lot of good for live Vj type stuff
techno needs more of this

Window licker was mentioned. Greatest Chris Cunningham + Aphex Twin vid has to be Rubber Johnny........

sick!!
So on to the subject of techno and videos.. I believe it depends on the music in question and totally agree with Laughing man, If its just some looped up 'pounder' or whatever then I personally see no point. If its something with some kind of substance then I think its a good idea.
I would love to see some kind of video for say a full album. Again something with substance.. A real album or even a good live set (I don't mean something aimed purely at the dance-floor here) I like the idea of sitting and watching listening to 40/50 mins worth of music and visuals. It all boils down to the quality or type of music and visuals I guess.
As a promotional tool and done for promotional use I think that's quite a lame concept.. as a creative idea and done for artistic reasons, To me that works.
In regard to the original question, I am a huge fan of Max Tundra. Check out this music video, made for a total of £22. This is the future of music videos for the genre!
