The abandonment of traditional conceptions of musicality in pursuit of something new and challenging.

Except "Techno" now seems to need to fit into this box of what "Techno" is, and doesn't seem to be an all-encompassing term as it used to..?

According to the Stripey Jumper and mullet club in Dublin,Techno is what "Dubfire makes" - these days !
From when I first got into Techno...it was something that made me feel different,it was made you shake your ass,move your hips. Always kept me on my feet.
Techno made me fire records across the room. it was and still is exciting,persistant,explosive, that would be the best way I could describe it...Last edited by Andy_n; 12-03-2008 at 05:47 PM. Reason: mistake

techno is everything and nothing all rolled into one. Techno is being at the front of a crowd of 1000 people at the mercy of a sickening soundsystem with your fave live artists or Dj's playing your favourite records. Techno is being alone at home listening to a Stewart Walker album with the lights off, bong out getting stoned. Techno is meeting new people in clubs, events, festivals etc etc and realising that alot of people actually have very similiar views and feelings about a type of music. Techno is appreciating the guys who allowed people who were not around at the time to still be able to be involved in a scene that is still alive today, whilst also pushing onwards towards the future and helping to keep it alive for alot longer
It's whatever you want it to be. Unfortunately these days, the actual ethos of what is deemed Techno is pretty much lost on most people, and Techno actually is just a 4/4 kick and uberschall loops badly whipped together. That is Techno
