But that`s the whole point.

It`s music that is meant to play very loud through a proper soundsystem.
Minimal is pretty much designed for big rigs.

You play schranze on a nice 60K Thunder ridge, and it sounds a total mess.

But minimal, all those big clean sounds with space, punch right through you.

Proper banging, with punch and dynamic, rather than slush and skrunch.

True, and on the flip it really sounds bad on lesser systems.

Anything that isn't made well is going to sound a total Mess homie.

Well that goes without saying though doesn`t it.

stop press: 4/4 electronic dance beat sounds "banging" when played loud.

have to agree.. went to see leibing on saturday and although i didnt really enjoy it, the sound was immense.. sounded ten times better than listening to a mix from him at home (it would anyway but you know what i mean)..

my gripe was that the set didnt really go anywhere.. the first tune could have been his last tune.. no flow to it.. just a single level all the way

BUT there was some guy playing live supporting him Brian Sanhaji... now he impressed me.. minimal yet not too much so.. lovely funky techno with nice drops and builds.. one of the best warm-up sets i've ever seen..

anyone know anymore of his stuff?

I heard liebing play when he hadn't gone minimal and was still hard and again when he was kinda inbetween, more funky. He never was my favorite dj, tbh. I really did enjoy his 3 decks action years ago at fusion club münster. sweat was dripping from the ceiling! always smiling like a madman :)

i loved his u9601 (whatever its called) no. 4 double cd..

the first is kinda funky minimal and the second is hard techno.. really really good range of styles.. thats kinda what i was expecting on saturday.. not the snorefest i got..

but like i said above.. something good came of it - i found a new artist.

just to even the balance about the actual gig.. it has to be said that the kids loved it, so he's obviously doing something right along the way.

saw hawtin up in newcastle on fri just gone - superb, chunky minimal techno - a was a bit of a surprise loads more punch and drive than i thought he would play, was impressive!
