No, I think I'm over it now, I'm amazed that a thread with the same name popped up yet again though.. the thing is to me, a lot of the stuff that myself or jerome play people wouldn't say was "wonky techno", which is why I find it pretty strange that we get described as such.. I mean jerome is the perpetrator of the term originally although he was never going round saying "I play wonky techno" as he was playing loads of different stuff, as he does now.. admittedly when it was being written on flyers for Test and Uglyfunk we might have got behind it as a fledgling scene, but the typical thing happened, same as with minimal stuff these days, loads of people tried to jump on hype, end result is a scene I personally didn't feel so comfortable being associated with when the quality of the music was falling in certain corners, and people were definitely not coming from the same influences as I was.. I mean maybe I'm getting old, but personally I find some of the stuff that gets classed as wonky sounds horrific.. it's like there was no understanding of "the funk".. it ended up like a plague in the east of germany, thus the reason why I don't enjoy playing there very much these days.... that's my take on it anyway....
