Exactly. Just what I was hinting towards when I brought up perspective and stubborness.

I haven't seen that here. But, in your own words, you said something was wrong with techno when your "best" record can't break even and loopy shit with bongos seems to be what techno is all about. Dave basically covered most of what I was feeling in a nicer way. I'm sick of hearing this shit and, regardless of your right to an opinion, how you've solicited it (webpages are public), what you've done, etc., it still comes off incredibly spiteful and holier than thou. Personally, most of my work usually would fall into one of the least popular genres of techno. But, you don't hear me pissing and moaning about how the style of music you like is shit as a result. I don't look down my upturned nose at others for not being into the music while yapping about all I've done to "move things forward." But, you have a right to talk in such a way just as I have a right to tell you to sod off for it.
