    Like all music there is good and bad mnml
    Some DJ`s and producers just jumped straight on it to follow the cash, others make it with some true heart and mind.

    Production wise you really have to have the skills to get it right.
    It is music that totally comes to life on a soundsystem if done properly.
    It`s the technicians choice of music, and some of it can be very sexy and soulful, but yeah, there is plenty of style over subtance shite too.
    Much like the childish dick waving of schranze "who can be the hardest"
    There is the foppish technical equivalent "who can be the most minimal"

    Neither make for good music.

    some of guido schneider is nice tho

    On the contrary; I think Pandrip is ****ing genius, and Egress is pretty much the best example of the lighter side of it I have found.

    For the record, I love this stuff, but have still never heard it on a "big system".

    (The same, incidentally, can be said of psy-trance).

    minimal comes into its own on big systems

    Less endless shuffly blops and FX - crystal clear sound seperation, lush powerful bass and relentless driving grooves.

    But, by big I mean good, and by minimal I mean good records played by someone who knows what they're doing. Getting the hatrick can be tricky...
