I agree with you totally here. I know Lanstrumm and some of those guys are just some of the producers that may come under the banner we are discussing, I just thought i'd use them as an example. I am surprised by some people who dismiss styles other than straight dancefloor techno, especially those who may have been listening to techno for quite a long time. Now above all is the time people should be looking to something a bit different. I know it's been going for ages but I personally would like to see booty make a bit of a re-emergence too, maybe I should start a new thread for this!
