What we love and what we would love to see. A +ive Thread

[robin m]

I love techno's infinite variety yet instant recognisability

I love techno's sense of humour and the way it can make you grin like an idiot by endlessly suprising you in a way no other form of music can

I love the way that people can be so passionate about techno

I love techno's ability to chill me out completely or make me dance my arse off

I love the way techno is constantly evolving

I love the fact that I can make techno sat in my room with a spliff on

I love techno people, the least attitude and the most open minds

I love the fact techno doesn't give a f*ck who doesn't like it

Hello, my name is Martin and I do techno :lol:

[Craig McW]

damn, I love the shit.

I :love:

the fact you can be lost in love, or lost in thought, or lost in agression to the the same tune, but without the "teenage angst" that creeps into lots of lyrical music...

The fact I can put in a thrash guitar/dub bass/indian classical sitar riff/folk melody/new age flute/etc and **** it about in the pot and it's all cool...

The fact that even the most bastard hard tune can still be a lullaby if I want to listen the that in bed...

That is goes sooooooooooooooooooooooo well with my other loves of hillsides, forests, warehouses, sunday afternoon parks, sweaty clubs, my livingroom with all the candles on...

That you can listen to it ****ed and not get it and suddenly it works when your straight and vice versa...

That it miraculously appears (on a good day at least) from the huge mess of boxes and cables that I seem to have spent a good £5k on in the last 10 years...

That it's something I can give people that they enjoy...

I :cry: cos...

There's not enough clubs that play it...

That I can't afford to buy enough of it...

That it still creates soooooo much bitchyness...

That the police won't let me enjoy it in peace...

lol.... no i haven't lol

i'm all for 'pushing the envelope' and other such cliche phrases, but theres nothing like a big stupid kick with a truck load of compression & some mental distortion to tattoo a grin to my face

unfortunately, no such music gets played in Belfast these days :cry: but i live in hope

i love techno because it doesnt force an emotion on you, you can feel how you want to feel while listening to it. i've listened to it when im pissed off, happy, sad, horny, tired etc

i love techno because its so fun to dance to. Techno arm rock anyone? hah you all know that move im sure

i love how mixing techno requires creative skill. you cant trance mix it or people will get bored.

i love how due to its repetative nature, it can be so hypnotic that you just get caught up in such a wicked groove, it puts you in a trance, better than trance does. heh.

i love how most techno people share the same A.D.D random characteristic. and were all pretty freaking hilarious too.

i love the diversity of this genre.

i love all forms of techno

i love the percussion

I LOVE TECHNO
