I honestly think the reason there has been a slump in dance music sales is because all the money people that were initially in dance music to make money have left thus bringing with them their capital to promote clubs, radio stations, record labels et al. This slump will bring things back to a grass roots level, ie be into the particular genre of music becaue you like it, not because some marketing guy is trying to flog it to you. This will leave all the string people standing and thus making it better in the long run for everyone.

Anyway back to techno
