Secrecy/Ableton/Loops/Death/Emotion/Techno]
Secrecy
Probably adds to the perception of sound, hence why some people really do try and think up concept names, artwork, etc. Thats just a little icing the cake and is good for marketing or making something stand out. I guess the main reason its brought up here is because when you think back to when you 1st got into techno you thought it was something truelly amazing, it probably was. Now you know the mechanics behind whats seen the norm these days you probably feel a little less shock and awe
Ableton
Great for audio, not so great for midi. Just another fish in a vast sea of fishes.
Sampled Loops
Are boring and are one of the main the reasons why a lot of techno sounds the same combined with presets(imo)
Death
Yes. More evil out of the speakers please
Emotion
Is usually there when producers write their own bits instead of cut and paste someone else’s (see sampled loops)
Techno
Isn’t about technology as it used to be
