    Agree with you on most points, but this is wrong. Techno was developed long before Detroit, I don't give a shit what people say about the Belleville Three, it's complete marketing bullshit on their behalf. There were people creating Electronic stuff along the same lines as we'd call 909 long before the 909 actually existed.

    And on the quote of being one tracked, it isn't as bad as it's touted to be, there must be a core of people keeping it true otherwise you'd have it all turn into a munge of shite, which the bandwagon lot are trying aren't they?

    The laptop stuff sounds flat IMHO, you've only got to listen to the creators of Ableton, etc. music to see why it's like that. Plus the technology itself is really cheap and nasty, it's pretty much profit over quality these days regardless of how much you pay for it.

    And yes, I am an authority on this :D

    Must agree, I find a lot of Monolake stuff sounds thin and digitized. Too much white noise

    no you have hard time understanding my words you bollock chops.

    i said i don't think you gave it a proper listen or gave it a fair shot sometimes an album can be a grower.

    i honestly like this album a lot more than the first listen i gave it even though i thought it was a decent effort in the first place.

    there, next time pay the ****kk attention or shut your bleeding mouth ey?

    saves me the effort to correct your cunttin arse.

    This drum machine existed commercially in the 1950s for a start;
    www.youtube.com/v/QLgyQG8Pu8s

    YMO were using the term Techno in the 70s, hence Technopolis (I'm sure they're not the first)

    Various synthesis pioneers like Raymond Scott, Max Mathews & Jean-Claude Risset, John Chowning (responsible for Yamaha's FM line), etc. were mucking around with sound modeling and sequencing long before synth keyboards became commercially available.

    With enough searching around there's no doubt you'll find recordings of 4/4 rhythms. I know for a fact I've heard early Raymond Scott stuff with downtempo simple 4/4 on the MRI album.

    Yeah sure you probably won't find the Disco/Funk influenced stuff pre-dating late 70s, but then Techno at its core isn't connected with those genres anyway.
