djing or lack of???

[gumpy green]

3. Here is an example of my Micheal Forshaw - Nervehammer routine then into a skratch over a glenn wison(valve) beat...one of his weird(er) ones on compound

this is taking from my set at a night called Dirt Houz...again in edinburgh....oh and its a wee bit longer at 6.8Mb


The nervehammer routine is a classic example of how to rmx/fuk with the vinyl and still keep them dancing.....in fact they went ape shit after the juggle on the short break when it kicked back in....made them just wait a little for the beat to come back in, just enuf to appreciate it when it did......the skratching bit was to give em a wee rest...cos they had just been "lifted"...

hardtek

:lol:

[schlongfingers]

Hardtek - Spiral Tribe.

I guess you don't want them at your techno nights either...

[gumpy green]

eh........ hardtek = the french free party tekno sound..... crystal distortion, spirl tribe, etc etc....

and yes i have had hardtek at my night twice and once agin comin up next month....pzeko vrs 1QLP (33split) from france...

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.

thought it was at fitipaldi, my reply was just incase...

yup me luves when its not just 145-150pbm hard loopy techn ALL the way..

youll prob appreciate the them examples as i do switch between music styles to do the tricks......and use fx etc for the transition from 145-200bpm....as you canny beatmatch em.

im trying to do something positive here FOR THE SCENE, please take these silly comments that are in no way doing any good away......the post is starting to wander already to "banter" talk.

please get back on the program or head to the cell block h section to talk about this "power tekno nonsence"....

sure, banter is good but im trying to have a serios disscusion about something VERY important to me......and should be to real tek headz BTW.

Just listened.
I still think scratching sounds cheesy and 80`s
But the other stuff I like.

[The Overfiend]

I think dance music should flow,
when i would shake ass at nyc clubs an shit when i first got into this
if you scratched or did anything like the sorts other than a flawless seamless blend a homo would throw a dildo at you
literally were talking disco 2000 days man.

nice one......

i cant see/hear how its cheesy, but thats just a personal taste thing, glad you said it tho, ill keep that in mind when trying to get cuts over techno beats.

sos- ima get ove to nyc , need a new dildo..... ;) sounds crazy but again this goes back to my point that techno jocks arent/werent doing it so if they tryed it, it prob did sound shit....

still waiting on that young board member reading thats gonna hear these examples, feel inspired and get to work, then come back in 5yrs and show me what ive been wanting to hear....

cmon i wanna here the hyper drummin over a track like this drumless jeroen track( i cant remeber what its called but ya get ma drift).....no drums on the track just melody/bass line.. ... well possible to cut crazy electo/warped drum under it using a bar from some other electro break.....

[dirty_bass]

It`s not a diss. I just hear scratchin, and it takes me back to my breakdance days when I was a kid, so to me, it`s not innovation.
However to someone younger, it may be.
