Has the era of funky energy driven techno died in the uk??

I just finished the interview with Joris Voorn that I had mentioned to you a few weeks back.

Some of the questions you guys wanted me to ask, were asked, and answered by him. He had some interesting things to say regarding the "minimal fad"......I'll try to copy and paste in a new thread tomorrow.

i like to play house techhouse and the funky side of techno never get bored then with one genre then great for long sets aswell techno will always go through fads as dave the drummer said find the stuff you like, ignore the brand name

The funk is where you find it i reckon... and energy...

it is what it is, and people find funk and energy in the strangest of places!

I find most minimal best played with a hangover or such like. Good chill out music imo.

To be honest I think I find most minimal is boring!

I agree to an extent, it does get boring after a while, it's hardly "avin it" is it?

But it's easy listening for me, Dave Clarke or such like banging away when i've got a headache just isn't right.

I think it's good for a warm up set, or setting a tone in some swanky bar in the CBD, where socialising is what it''s all about, rather than cutting shapes on the dancefloor. I mean, it's good background music imo.

If i want to cut loose on the dance floor or something to wake me up in the morning, then i'd play something more lively.
