It seems that way to me after being here for a while as well. The people who are into techno stick together and seem to make a genuine effort to build some sort of scene instead of stepping all over each other to get ahead. Their shared interests bring them together and since they realize that there aren't many people who are a part of that community, they see that it is best to work together instead of being competitive.
