i have to say DAVEy that to me, the techno scene is exactly the same in the UK as it always was. ie totally underground, totally special and totally rockin if you know where to look when i discovered the london scene many years ago, i couldn't believe how 'big' techno was down there. somehow it just felt more 'techno' than anything up here (ahemmm apart from the orbit of course). totally mind blowing.

but that's changed in my eyes.

it seems like london has more ups and down because there's such a huge concentration of ppl. as far as i'm concerned, as long as everyone else just keeps trying to do there thing, trying to make a change - then everything is great.

but thank god eh? as long as we all know our market/goals/love and keep trying to do something new????????????

i don't believe anything has changed. those who try to take music forward are still trying to take music forward. those who aren't unfortunately have quicker access to the future. but the difference is still as blindingly obvious :)

am i just talking bollox??????????????? hahahaha :lol: :lol:
