melodic techno

So don't go to minimal nights.

No, I like minimal...it's the banal percussion prog of the early noughties which does my head in (and still gets played out a bit), and was very difficult to avoid back in the small town I was in. You'd go for something else and have to sit through hours of warmup of this stuff...

I think minimal done well with skill borders on the sublime.

But done badly, and you are left listening to what sounds like a bunch of 12yr olds locked in a room with an 808 for 4 days.

The less talent you have as a dj the more you have to rely on your records to keep people interested. But talented djs can make otherwise dull records sparkle because they know the context in which to use them.
