I hear ya. I grew up on that old shit when I was a little boy. It got me started with electornic music and sometimes I get a bit jaded with todays electronic stuff. Lots of it is soo shitty. But then you have to remind yourself that back then, most of it was shitty too.
It's only the good tracks that have stood the test of time.
I like to play around with doing older style tracks but nothing serious. Maybe the style should be pushed a bit? Get that lame ****ed up 80's electro-trash shit out of the way...
