    Default Where's the best place for hard techno right now?

    I think the UK's getting quite good at the mo you know. PPl seem to be opening up a little more to the sound. What are everyone's else's thoughts? Where's the best towns/cities/countries for the hard sound?

    in scotland its pretty poo tbh,

    Edinburgh is very strong for techno, but not the hard stuff, hope it changes soon. Although there are free parties where a lot of the djs play mad french/euro techno which is like at a hardcore pace.

    Not a lot on in the clubs tho... ghetto techno and breaks kinda stuff is quite big in edinburgh.

    leeds!!! euphonic, orbit, cabbage(more on the acid side of things) there is another night opened recently, they kicked it off with a free party with ignition technition, mike humphries, jon nuccle etc(didnt have a name though) and ignition tech are residents there.

    theres always techno nights popping up in leeds all the time, and there is other techno nights looking at diffrent areas of techno such as superconductor(i think detroit legend claude young is resident there)

    i dont get out as much as i would like but if your looking for a good underground night come to leeds

    Weymouth is turning into a right techno hole!
    Wish there was some evidence of this ! :?

    Hopefully, electronic music kicking back off in the cities will have some sort of knock-on effect elsewhere.

    And, whenever I travel to London/Brum, I seem to see the same faces which must mean although this is a great scene, it is still quite small.

    birmingham can be excellent for techno. there is at least one quality techno or electro night on per week.

    i cant see why so many people see birmingham as an eye sore?

    What I mean is paddys nights every first sat of the month, and the techno is flying out of meri's shop aswell, surely thats evidence that a lot of people are into there techno now?!
