Funky Techno

**Si the Sigh** · 03-03-2004, 02:09 PM

ADDICT: (if your still reading past all this bollocks) try checking out some labels like RAW, Hydraulix & Apex. Fu*k what anyone else thinks, I think they are pretty 'funky' sounding to me. If your looking at Routemaster & De Novo records (which you said earlier) then these labels will be up your street. And before anyone (Death on a Stick) chucks there thoughts in, I think those labels have some pretty funky tracks on them. Thats my opinion. Everyones aloud to have an opinion & it doesn't make it right or wrong. 'Nuff said.

You're so behind the times. That was last week's cool genre.

If I've insulted you it's because you made haughty observations about my posts that served only to show that you hadn't understood them.

Understand them? That was probably because the signal to noise ratio was so high, i.e., I had to wade through the insults to find what you were actually saying. ;) As I said, that sort of carry on just gets in the way of what your trying to say (some of it quite valid, I might add).

i have this theory. if a track is funky, then it is funky. techno can be very funky. but if a genre describes itself as funky (funky breaks, funky house), then it is probably made by and listened to by decidedly non-funky white people, thus "faking the funk."

**scienceofuse** · 03-03-2004, 05:20 PM

Hehe, it's a known fact that you just CAN'T FAKE THE FUNK!

**SlavikSvensk** · 03-03-2004, 05:26 PM

faking the funk violates the second law of thermodynamics or something...

kako je u sloveniji?

Try ppl like marco bailey, red head, filterheadz. Even Fergie (the ex hard house dj) is into funky techno.
Also ppl like pedro delgardo, cave etc. :!:

I believe you have just opened the door to another 5 pages of this thread. Great work, on a first post!! ;)

All techno is funky. Brainiacs.

**DJZeMig_L** · 04-03-2004, 02:00 AM

I don't know if I would describe those artist as funky... funky is more like the chicago tinged stuff really...

The artist u mentioned have kind of a tight more mechanical percussion most of times...

Just my 2 cents, not trying 2 start any flames!

Also De Novo 001 not sure who its by but this is what I mean.

Routemaster - London / Acid techno mate.

De Novo 001 - Is a Chris Liberator remix of what ever the trance tune is on the A-side. Quite a good track.

Ah

so I'm asking for the completely wrong music then

**Si the Sigh** · 04-03-2004, 03:21 PM

I think you will like the London / acid techno. Like I said, check out Hydraulix, RAW, Powertools, Apex, Cluster, Stay Up Forever; etc.

**Addict** · 04-03-2004, 03:33 PM

Yeah this is the stuff I've been buying lately. but I'd call these label "well known" almost household names. Was after some other labels.

**Si the Sigh** · 04-03-2004, 03:41 PM

Hey mate, give it 5 minutes and you just KNOW someones going to rip you to pieces for saying "well known techno" Stu, go and speak to Chris Hare @ Destiny. He will help you out with your techno needs, weather well known or funky! ;)
