Hi Tots.
I know what you mean, loop driven stuff along the lines of JB3 type funky techno (which is what i think most people know it as) jehrico records material. later code red, earlier beyer stuff. Zentz and the like.
I dont think its died on the dance floor, play a funky track like this and people will still dance. You and brad (are you brad.. i get confused by the name tots) anyway have put on some cracking nights in leeds, which im ashamed to say i didnt attend due to personal work related issues and circumstance) along with lots of other people around the UK.
I know what you mean about the decline though. I think thats a combination of the decline in the club scene in general and the way music and fashions change. Also as a audience no-one is getting younger. I teach kids who 10 years or check it... 20! years ago would have been into the techno you are talking about. Now i am that kid, now an adult. (ok..ok so im not an adult :lol: ) these kids are now into psy-trance, drum and bass and hip hop and shit regurgitated hardcore.
IMO - music is change and thats a fact. cant stop it, we might as well be trying to ram a pint into a half glass.
also dude - i dont think slavicsvensk has the permissions to edit posts in this section, he is the metropolis moderator, nor do the mods here change stuff people put like you reckon they did. ive not seen it happen and ive been a mod here for 2 years.
Peace folks!
slow down, speedy g.
you described something that was not clear, to me or to several other people who posted. in response, the bizarre chain of replies above ensued.
an honest question requires an honest answer, and no more.
