Ok back on point, a lot of good points being brought up here, I am just bewildered as to why people would accept the state of techno right now like it isn't a bad thing that there is so much shadyness going on

I really don`t understand it to be honest. I`ve been in and out of the music industry for years, and had a record deal in the past (industrial band, long story, won`t go into it). And as a whole the record biz is full of wanquers, but I have never understood why there are so many in techno. There isn`t a big load of dosh up for grabs to drive these arseholes into wanquerdom, so what is it.
Partly I have found that drugs have a part to play in this. As there are a lot of seriously damaged people in the techno scene. It`s only when you hit your 30`s that the damage really starts to take effect.
But other than that who knows, maybe techno emphasises frequencies that attract shadyfolk?

It can and is changing, the good guys are gonna win dammit! I know this to be true, I learnt it from hollywood.

what shadyness?

Take a look around the BA board. All is good. Its the people who arent really into techno/etc who tend to act shady .

I'm happy as a pig in shit at the moment precisely because two new strands (if you like) of techno are steaming ahead whilst at the same time people lament about the current state of techno. I find this a bit bizarre sam sorry.

We are at the bottom of a steep curve.

Maybe you don`t encounter the shadyness massplank. Do you have any label/distribution/promotion dealings in the scene?

I dunno maybe its coz were Irish that we dont have this problem over here.

I'm opting out. We have it all too nicey nicey in Leprechaun Land.

The reason there is hope now for the good hearted mofo's to prosper is because after the recent losses in techno, all that's left are the people with drive, yeah a few cocokroaches survived but this is the quiet after the storm. Or is it the eye of the storm and the shift will occur soon? ;)
I think what may be wrong as well is the business side of things.
How many people who receive contracts actually go to a lawyer friend
and ask if they are getting f*cked?

Swaps and releases on labels with mates is something totally different.
In a situation like that trust is the contract and the expense for breaching a friend contract is gossip.........see the pattern people?

Have done. And yeah when MONEY comes into it things get ropey. But thats the case for every commercial enterprise be it Banks/Sheep/Hashish.

But I thought techno was anti-commercial?

But we are talking about the industry side of techno and the dealings that occur, not the Boa Board
