techo music

Errrr, lol, you mean 'electronic music'? There's funky house, hard house, acid house, trance, drum&bass, techno, and many others...

What kind of stuff do you like?

 
From EGGO's website:

"The raver is caught in this paradox. Like the hippy movement of the 60's, the raver seeks drums, seeks refuge to a simpler mode of existence, seeks to change the nature of the human condition through tribal gatherings and celestial events, seeks to be environmentally-conscious. But also to be urban, to be tech-oriented, to be wired into the information age. At the birth of a new millennium, the raver appears to be both luddite and industrialist; naturist and technocrat."

Nice site. I think there is an interesting juxtaposition there between the technology of decks and amps and speakers, and the connection with something ancient and tribal to do with drums and dancing and drugs and sex... wouldn't call it a paradox though. I think it's just a modern way of recapturing something old, and I don't think it has anything to do with the information age as such.

I just found out his flash guide is temporarily gone. That sucks, it was a very good chart of how electronic music evolved from the 70's to present and how it branched to many genres and subgenres including pop and rap.

A lot of some of the best songs are from artists who do not go worldwide, and only make a few tracks to be put on into CD compilations that are lucky enough if they hit store shelves.

This is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life...
Sky (Talla 2XLc Remix) by Dito

p.s. oh yeah, techno is usually music referred from the 90's. it uses older beats compred to today. Groove Coverage, a modern trance vocalist/mixer group incorporated techno beats into very popular mainstream trance tracks, they have come close enough to being called the "top" in the charts.
"electronica" is a false impression of a terribly classifiable term. it diminishes the name of trance, and should not be used unless you absolutely have to. it's neither attractive nor imformative.
dance, usually using more melodic upswings, the beats are usually, alternatively mixed to be able to enjoy the music with or without heavy bass support. it is more friendly as far hardcore, but includes many rythmic patterns that trance uses.
club music, figure it out for yourself? it's hardcore is all I need to say.

all in all, don't be so robotic. music will be music, and often times, genres overlop and intertwine with each other, and don't be fooled that techno is dying. it is still alive, but more people prefer trance, upmixed from more technologically modern hardware and software tools. however, just as Groove Coverage has proven, there are no boundaries to the way music can be made.
 
Hey, I have that song! I do like it, but I don't think it's the Talla 2XLc remix.

If you like Sky, I'm sure you'll love Pervading Call 2's music. I purchased a few songs from their site and used it in a couple of personal sets.
