If people can`t get the music, how are they gonna find out about it to then go to the clubs and vica versa.
WTF, a massive, MAHOOOOOSSSIVE country like the States, and less techno than a few of the major techno countries in europe put together.
What the hell is that all about?
Does no one have the promotion bug out there, or does hip hop totally rule now?

techno is a dirty word, associated with raves and drugs. folks dont get the post rave mentality and still run around with backpacks and pacifiers, so ppl lump techno in with the cornball ravers and viola! the good old west remains stuck in 1992
OI, couldn't have deemed things better myself. Seems like many people here are still stuck in a lost time......

And techno is pretty much either a dirty word to people or it's also that they don't understand it. Yet with next to zero exposure to the musik, how could they understand it.

Out in the EU and the UK it's on the radio, it's in lots of clubs, it's in commercials and other forms of daily life.

Plus really it's just not cool to be techno. :lol:
