I can say techno here in Los Angeles has been growing the last couple of years. Before you would rarely see any ALL techno events, maybe your occasional headliner, but real techno parties were rare. I gotta give it up to Droid Behavior here in L.A., they've been throwing 90% of the techno parties here and have been helping it grow in L.A., they bring headliners from all over, and people are now starting to see there is more to electronic music than trance haha.
Hopefully down the line it will be a bit more popular here (rather than trance :roll: ). But in mainstream america, dance music in general will always be hated, because its not all about bling bling and bitches and ho's
