Those are the unsung heroes of techno who with odd exception, are distanced from ‘techno music’ or stuff in the clubs anyways. So its not really just down to musical ability I think, its also technical ability. Look at how easy it is to use Ableton to mash up loops. Could be part of the problem on why there is a lot of plap around perhaps
Yes but you gotta watch out because a lot of times those guys turn out to make music that is creative... but has no real soul.
Its just a smoke screen of tricks.
Music for poncy chinstrokers, that no one else will dig.
if i want soul i'll listen to otis redding.

some people like to be stimulated.
