The way Schranz is going....

[z99]

On D&B - have you heard that "download" track? Jesus.
Bunch of ****ing dinosaurs

muah, definitely

"i need MP3ees, vinyl is dead bruvv -- whaa, u're talking shieeeeeeet"

typical Clipz and his clown army :)


anyhow, what a nice turn for a schranz thread! // although I'm a bit of a vinyl fetishist too, the only thing what kinda bothers me concerning digital revolution is how do we get right music to the right audience in times when even the hard copy market suffers from overproduction? // should come up with new means of marketing, I guess.. other than plain spamming :D

Schranz is definately going forward with lots of new producers coming through. I would like to see more producers from the UK representing a little more. Schranz is a much larger scene in europe and will continue to lead this genre. I have recently had various visits to european venue's playing schranz, where the vibe and amount of support out there is immense.
I got more into schranz about 2 years ago now, where i became bored of everyone playing the same funky techno and cloning henry's tracks but to no avail. I needed something new and fresh with more energy to the overall sound and schranz seemed the right direction to take. It maybe a little fast and distorted to some people, but it is everyones personal preference to like whatever sound they want. Long live the harder sound!

We had Amok playing here some days ago, interesting style, too fast for me personally, but really different to most Schranz-acts we had here the last 2 years. Really hard, sick and dark.

i think Amok is more industrial and hardcore rather than hardtechno/schranz these days. 158 is prob my limit for tempo. Some great releases from him in the past though

[The Overfiend]

From what I understand Amok was veering into a harder industrial sound rather than the quote on quote schranz ethic

He told me he is bored bout all the Schranz-producers nowadays sounding the same. He played some tracks from upcoming Artillery-releases, totally sick stuff.

In oct. we had Tomash Gee for a live-PA, it sounded also really interesting and not 08/15.

i love this new wittekind thing i got last week
the sunstorm ep on abstract records
very nice track on the b i think
with a swirly synth pattern and a great drop
its pretty difficult to get the seperation between synths and all those drums but he's done it really well i think
i got it because i was playing in sardinia over chrimbo and the local dj there is a total schranz head , so he had all the latest stuff
and i have to say i didn't hate it nearly as much as before.
it used to be all bootlegs with the worst cheesy trax just ripped to bits but now people seem to be getting into original trax again
which is great i.m.o.
and it's really not bad either.
sure there's always going to be fodder , but thats same anywhere isn't it?
maybe the schranz guys have been guilty of just thrashing it out in the past
but the bar of quality has been raised recently for sure.

nice 1 hendry, its good to see the positive side and hear somebody talking inteligently about this subject. From what i hear, you get the good and the bad in all styles of music whether it be dance/trance/funky techno/hardcore/indie/rock/metal.........great e.p from witte btw

No, people just aren`t buying techno.

i think the internet is causing some of this problems too

i remember in 1995 (in portugal) every kid wants to have a turntable and buy vinyls, sometimes just to have the same tracks the great dj´s play on the partys

now its all diferent , there are millions of p2p programs and warez techno foruns... in seconds they have acess to the mp3 and sometimes the vinyl its not on sale yet

if they want to be djs they download in seconds the last version of tracktor

nobody is selling nothing like in the other times

portugal is a country that consumes many tecnology , whe are the first country to receave (test) and sell new celular phones of famous companys like "Sony Ericsson" and other types of new internet technologies (when i say "first" i mean the big companys release first the stuff here to be tested they say whe are very exacting and if they sell in portugal can sell everywhere)

the slowest adsl here is 4 mb and the standart adsl is 12 mb per second ( 1 second or 2 to download a track in mp3 )

all the people in these days have a fast pc and a fast adsl (even 9 years old kids)

they leave the pc´s downloading all night and day , djsets ,vinyls , cd albums


with all this its very hard to sell the same... some people never enter in a shop in they lives


ps: sorry my bad english
