BUT- whats that got to do with having this contructive debate about pusihng djing forward within techno????????

who cares what its called, its the dj skills were debating....why not listen to the examples and com back with some constructive comment.
@ Gumpty Green my 'at your techno nights' comment was directed at fitipaldi btw

I reckon iit is kind of relevant to DJ skills, I think alongside technique of whatever kind it's also a skill to be able mix between all kinds of styles in a set - techno, hardtek, electro, breakcore whatever whilst maintaining momentum - sounds wicked when done well.
