well if by purist techno she means the deeper, more indulgent side of things, then the production standards will be anything but dropped, they will vastly improve. Compare the production of some of say, Diego's seriously deep stuff compared to about 95% of hard techno/acid techno and the production differences are vastly noticable, as unfortunately with alot of the dancefloor stuff people seem to be content just to have that big flat kick at the front of the mix and everything else buried in behind it

there's good and bad produced records on every label though, i really dont know a single label who havent put out an underproduced record at some point, wether or not they deem it phat and full of depth.
