Thats how it comes across to me anyway
I have no real opinion how techno SHOULD sound, unless it`s in terms of professional production. I do however think that in this day of almost 1 label per artist, that everyone should be trying to stand out and do something different or not bother, as their is plenty of filler already.
If I was gonna say it was rubbish, then I would.
If you can honestly say this stands out against the other stuff in this genre then I am amazed.
The production is ok, but I tend to rate things by the production standards of the best rather than what has become the standard in most techno today, which compared to any other genre has actually become pretty low.

Obviously the producer here has capability, but seems to be just making tracks that fit within very tight boundaries that this kind of stuff could do with breaking out of.

I admit I am hard to impress, but having been listening to techno for a long time now, I have heard it all before.

I`ll just say this, if you are to tender to take the fact that not everyone is gonna pat you on the back and kiss your ass when you make a track, then don`t post it up where people can comment on it.

If this blew me away, I would probably be the first person to say how great it is, and I would be playing it to various people with excitement.
