Techno is a very subjective thing - everybody has their own idea of what constitutes techno music.

However, there is a generally recognised definition, and Lisa Lashes doesn't come under that category. I realisee some people may think her music has techno elements in it (uhh... a kick drum?) but when her tunes are plastered all over Cds with titles like "Hard House Nation" I think we can safely say that she isn't techno.

Plus, Scooter always claim to be techno, but just because they say it doesn't make it true! Anyone remember 2 Unlimited - "techno, techno, techno, techno!!!"

Your tracklist looked basically like hard house, with a few techy elements to it. Better than the average hard hosue crap, but still not techno.

No insult intended, but I can't see how you can define Lashes as techno.

Apologies for poor spelling, but I'm typing this on the sly in work...

[DJ Tomi]

no no no mate u got it all wrong, dont think its the easiest thred to understand tho oops lol

that tracklisting with lashes on etc is a hard house cd i made, it does have its techy elements a few techn tunes but its a hard house CD

the cd ppl are debating whether or not it is techno is the one from the link at the start of the thread

i would never ever ever.....EVER class lashes as techno, i cant ****in stand her at all, think she is shite to be honest, and ive had first hand experience MANY a time :)

[teknorich]

A good point well made!

Took a gander at your tracklist. Interesting. Much techier than the other one, but still worrying in parts (Harry Diamond? Ilogik?? Andy Farley??)
I think it's a real grey area with this kind of sound. To me, people like Dave the drummer sound like a form of hard house. Tougher, techier, and often acid admittedly, but still with a hard house bounce.

I personally wouldn't file the mix under techno, but then that's my own opinion. I totally don't approve of the bad attitude you've recieved over this issue. There were things that had to be said, but there is a way to say them, and we don't have to be snobby!

i know people have said that about illogik, farley, harry diamond...

but the illogik tune is a remix by guy mcaffer and is nothing like the original tune, the remix is techno
the andy farley tune is actually engineered totally by ant and i personally think it falls under techno although there are some hard house influences, i think this tune could be considered a crossover tune :)
the harry diamond and c.e.r.n is very much techno to be honest, although they farley and harry diamond tunes are on nuckleuz (unfortunatly) i still consider them as technotunes :)

but wat i might think is techno others may not, u sed urself u think dave the rummer sounds like a form of hard house, personally i think he is more acid techno and hard techno :)
