i don't care what anyone says...missy elliot f***ing rocks. sometimes she sounds more techno than techno.

i think the idea here is not to get rid of all the orthodox dancefloor techno, but to encourage those of us who are looking for something different/more (depending on your viewpoint) to hash out good ideas and maybe even start interactin in some way or another.

local scenes aren't as important as they were in the 1980s or 1990s, because we can transfer information so easily across borders and so on.

detroit had derrick may, juan, kevin, blake baxter, etc. all listening to each other and vibing off each others' work. now maybe we have a cyber-detroit...or maybe we need a cyber-detroit...
