I just think that the overall genre of techno has exploded immensly in the past 3 years. It used to be hard banging techno, and thats about it I guess. But nowadays, you have groovy techno, hard banging techno, trancey techno, all these forms of techno. The problem is, people are having a hard time adjusting to this. They focus on producers they relied on before, but they don't realize these producers are moving on.

While some hard techno proudcer from yesteryear may be on the housey tip now, there is surely someone coming through the ranks to take his place. Techno is in a time of change, and too many people are paying attention to the types of techno that don't interest them, therefore they become jaded.
