Some people are extremeley scared of techno. If you called it something else and marketed it as that it would turn a few more heads.
I agree with ryan, techno is getting quite comercialized in britain. Techno is always broadcast on radio 1 now.Pete tong had sunshine as his tune of the weekor month or something!!! In the last six months Beyer, Hawtin< Vaith, Ade Fenton and dave clarke have all been on radio 1. Some of them EM's but Clarkey and Fenton? I really wouldnt mind that much if fergie played the ocasional techno tune but
1) He plays the most shit techno around and people who know no better think this is the sound of techno.
2) He needs a leson in how to mix it propperly, he doesnt have to be seamless simon all the time.
3) Hes just a tit wank.
