nukleuz is a crap hard 'house' label for mongs

like the kind of nonsense some of your compatriots listen to at squats in Acton.

it has nothing to do with techno

I listed some bona fide techno above. Go away. Grab them off some torrent and educate yourself, you jumped up internet muppet.

I has anal lyse once, the single most painful thing EVER. They are a generic form off anal lice, see below.

I preferred Jamesthemonkeh

PS still consider Blackwater to be house no matter how many 'enlightened' people tell me it's techno.

Olly I always value your musical input in discussions, and I usually agree with it, but Acid Eiffel (one of my all time favorite records) I wouldnt classify as techno, its like Jaguar, transcending genres. Calling it techno wouldnt do it justice. Same for blackwater, altho a Detroit track pushed by Saunderson is more house then techno to me. For the rest, all quality tunes.

can't be arsed to get into a discussion on techno with somebody who doesn't even know what it is!

all I will say is here are 10 techno records you need in your life

rhythm is rhythm (derrick may) - it is what it is
gary martin - casa cougat
acid eiffel - choice
lfo - lfo
galaxy II galaxy - hi tech jazz
carl craig - sandstorms
rob hood - core
octave one - blackwater
vince watson - cycles
kraftwerk - expo 2000 (rolando remix)

essential labels: transmatt, planet e, warp, rephlex, UR, clone

 

[Ancient People]

you beat me to it

I preferred Jamesthemonkeh

the truth of the matter NA is that you are one particularly sad and delusional kid who knows next to nothing about music, parties, or in fact anything at all. You thrive on the momentary attention your increasingly mundane outbursts generate, but to everybody else you are treading on something dangerously akin to troll territory

god i miss you!

i grew up on teckers... oliver lieb, carl lekebusch, jeff mills, stacey pullen etc.....
but i listen to that stuff now (& even the new & improved state of teckers) & i cant enjoy more than 2 or 3tracks in a row.... its got no melody, its got no soul......
i still loved it back then.... raved my little arse off... but now.... ???
maybe im just too old...?

 

[discoplayer]

Nah cos, I used to be a Tech head, now I'm throwing Techno gigs and of all my parties they're the most successful,

where's your party at NA?
who plays @ em? maybe i know some of your crew?
melburn is a very small town afterall

ok. To clarify, I'm basically talking about Detroit or Detroit-influenced tracks - obv there is cross-fertilisation with house and the borders can get blurred - I also appreciate that there is a different techno tradition elsewhere - Adam Beyer's music for instance owes next to nothing to Detroit and the brutalism of a Dave Clarke/Billy Nasty set, which is fundamentally nasty music which strips out the soulful element, imo (unless they've changed their sets in the last 10 years?) I find it very hard to relate to that end of the scale. However, the clown who started the thread was trying to bring NUKLEUZ into the equation which is beyond laughable.

@ discoplayer - where the FCUK have YOU been ????

So that'll be all soulful house ever as well then. (do you see where your argument fails)

oh Matt wtf do you know! - anyone would think you DJ or somethin...

 

[Olly]

no, not really

All I'm saying is that whilst I accept there have always been blurred boundaries on certain tracks - eg energy flash, nude photo back in the day right up to what say henrik schwarz, sacha funke and carl craig are doing today, there remain obvious demarcations between soulful house and soulful techno. A techno track would sound absurdly out of place at a soulogic night for instance, equally a gospel number in a mayday set. It's in the middleground that the boundaries blur. New sounds and new technology have broken down a lot of the old sonic divides. However at specialist nights I've been to like lost and spacebase, there is a distinct techno identity about the music which stands them out from deep house nights. I don't profess to be an expert on techno by any stretch and am not a producer - I just take issue with people claiming the term who don't really understand it or the roots, the influence of disco, the whole chicago/detroit evolution etc. That's all.

this aint techo is it?

 

[Olly]

you're not very funny, you know

But tragically you fail to understand that.

There's people like Ancient People with something interesting to say on this discussion and then there's pointless fat kunts like you.

 

[jjinit]

I happen to take offence at that last remark.....which is untrue!!

chewie aint fat!!!
