And there lies the problem. People are blinkered and there are too many tunnel vision DJ`s.
Yes a set of looped percussion is boring, as is a set of schranz (crazy?), the secret to a good mix surely is a mix of styles, embracing the best elements from all the sub genre`s of techno.
yup...i just saw paul langley the at the weekend......just played hard techno all the way through with no breaks or flava/meldoy added..... was just boomboom all the way through, was boring me at times even tho i did like most of the tunes he was playing.....i was just thinking--"will you switch it up a little, please"........afterall when i go for a chinese i like to have a taste of everything not just a big bowl of lemon chicken....

have a techno banquette not just one dish. ;)
