    I would think most of the lazy techno producers out there would just mash about 3-4 different loops together. Maybe some loops they will cut the bar in half, some will leave the full bar playing. Then they'd probably use a low pass filter on many of the loops so that the average listener would not be able to pick up on the fact that the loop is from a sample CD. Add some distortion, add some other effects. Then probably lay out some synth chords on top of it.

    I know of 5-6 different guys that do this when they lack inspiration. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesnt.

    Have a jam sesson and just come up with fun stuff, and stuff that sounds cool.

    Then afterwards you should have a bunch of audio files then have another session to see if you can sequence something.
