Hot Topic: The Net Killing Techno

[spiralx]

I think the only thing the Internet has done is helped this music tremendously.

Most definitely... would we be able to argue about the state of the scene if it wasn't for the net? I'm lucky to know a fair few techno fans, but if you're stuck in the middle of nowhere (techno-wise anyway) then you'd be buggered without the net to be able to find like-minded people, hear about nights out and find and listen to new tunes.

Hell, I used to live in a town of 6,000 people where the nearest "techno scene" if you want to call it that was about 4.5 hours away. The Internet helped me considerably.

I managed to live in London for all my life and not find the techno scene for a good few years until after I started listening to it... too bloody underground, lol ;)
