industrial techno

[dirty_bass]

What the hell is industrial techno anyway?
A lot fo people seem to think the crappy distorted clangy stuff is industrial, but it falls so far away from the industrial ethic it`s unreal.

Explain more by what you mean?

The Birmingham Sound?
The Hymen/Ant-Zen sound?

Why not just answer his question instead of being ****in' anal about it?
Sorry man, but will you just jump down off your high horse. Everyone knows you know about industrial music, get over yourself.

You were right in your questions to Detfella, i.e. Birmingham/Ant Zen - they are good overall inidicators of "industrial techno". You know this, we all know this... that's industrial techno; no question required.

In some ways I'm sorry to have made a personal attack at you like this, you are one of the best contributors to BOA, but also one of the worst too in my opinion.

Yeah, the Emergence forum is definitely the place to check out industrial stuff and tips. One label I really like is Keller Musik, some of the earlier releases were a more heavy jacking style, but have gradually become a bit more crunchy and industrial... I like their buzz anyway - I think there might be a bit of a link between them and Zhark, who are on a darker and perhaps less dancefloor style.

Hahaha. Sunil takes a FLAWLESS VICTORY !

Or a "perfect" for the SF2 afficionados out there.

Industrial is whatever the **** you want it to be.

Just because you can't trace the roots of a project to ****ing Throbbing Gristle or bloody Birmingham (where I'm from, btw, and don't never ever hear me harping on about it) don't make it any less 'industrial'.

Not everything has to have a 'future music' production either. Who CARES if it's just pure noise, if you don't like it don't listen - why write stuff off or slag it cause it doesn't fit into your (blinkered) view of a genre.

GRRRR I hate the music 'scene' sometimes haha. What pisses me off even more are people who are 'purists' or look down on other kinds of music to their own. I love ALL good music, fact. If I like something I like it, it doesn't have to have the right 'roots' or whatever. In fact, most if not all of the music I listen to is REALLY ****ING UNCOOL and VERY COMMERCIAL. Sometimes you don't wanna fanny about in the sandpit in your garden, sometimes you wanna go to DISNEYLAND - ya get me ?

Off yaz go and pidgeonhole something else now...

I leave here, once again, more irritated than when I arrived. Sigh.
