yes mate, this is getting beyond a joke and it really has to be addressed. there are people in this for the right reasons and there are people in this for the wrong reasons. but at the end of the day, joe public isn't going to care. they're going to hear techno played by the goons who don't understand it and think that that is what it's all about.



i think, as someone mentioned earlier, there's going to be a huge backlash from the underground movement. and i'm convinced this is going to happen soon.



but think about it. good techno productions that the underground are passionate about are now being played commercially in the UK. so FFW a few months and where does the underground look for inspiration if the underground is commercial? ermm...



and i think this could kill techno as we know it - as we all look for something else. but seriously what else is there? commercial dance music is at such a point now that as soon as it's seeing something underground, it's raping it. so what is there?



... perhaps it'll be something that isn't dance music as we know it. it's time for change. a revolution is surely about to happen? but has technology/ internet/ communication got to such a point that underground music cannot survive like it used to? ie any underground is dead before it's even started??

information overload?
