what are you talking about mate ?
just because you don't like it, don't make it bad.
and I disagree, the Beatport top ten is probably WAY more musically challenging to make, than most techno will ever be, mostly being house and trance, which In my experience are demanding styles because of the extreme amount of competition and the high production quality involving vocalists and complicated melodic structures, this kind of stuff can only be made in decent studios by competent people , no way can idiots throw this kind of stuff together.
and no not any idiot can tweak some knobs program a synth or do any of that stuff
sorry but it's not that easy.
to say that is to totally undermine the history of dance music i.m.o.

sorry bud , but maybe you want to rethink that rather brash statement.
