thats an interesting point... due to the nature of techno it is not affected at all by outside influences such as the media... i cant turn on ITV1 and watch "techno academy" or see an advert for the next release on downwards so i would agree that a producer in the techno world who sells lots of recods is going to have had a lot of respect at some point during his/her career..

conversley a pop artist can become famous over night due to the advances of mass media and global capitalism....
In Holland we have ID%T radio and also some fancy magazines. All good instruments to promote your label. In Germany there are even more of these kinds like Kiss FM and Groove magazine and so on... So there is enough possibility to create some attention.
