guys - we wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for juan atkins/derrick may/kevin sauderson. think about it. to be honest i wouldn't have the passion for this music if i hadn't been blown away by early transmat stuff. but that's just me. nevertheless you HAVE to have respect for the early techno guys, whether you like it or not.

RE: the rest of this thread.

I really was not talking about Richie Hawtin etc. I meant the FUTURE. Hawtin is a previous pioneer. But who is the FUTURE?????

Si Begg is doing a damn good job at doing something different.
So is Jerome - but surely he needs to make more of a mark as a producer.

ANDROID - in the list you've given I see people who have created their own sound but I don't see people who are doing something massively different.... YET. Sure they have their own thing... But I'm talking here about major changes. If anyone is going to change techno I believe your list is a good starting point. Now lets see where these names go/take us. Time will give us the answer to my topic.

But at the moment who is truely breaking the mould??????????

i'd like to think Miro and I are... atleast we're trying to.
