Respect to Dustin!
Actually one thing - I've always tried to 'build' my techno sets, but when I played in Brazil I just went all out hard techno cause i thought that's what they wanted. And after someone said something to me about it, I realised I was getting really narrow-minded about what I like. I totally love the hard sound - it's the best thing about techno at the moment for me... but you don't have the 'POWER' if you don't build. there's no crescendot o your set.
the way i play in Eastern Europe is my favorite. i can really start with stuff like eg superbra/tresor, work it into jackstar (new DJ BAM BAM is wooooooooooooooooo!!!!) and then perhaps prime stuff and then headroom/slob and hereos etc...). plus i love playing non 4/4 stuff for artist like Inigo Kennedy.
Is anyone else like this??
