I remember back when there was the "electro revival of 1995."
And then Drexciya came out with the "Return of Drexciya" on UR. As far as I
remember Drexciya had come out with at least one record every year since 91.
Now there's the "electro revival of 2002."
But as to the trendiness of electro, being in NY I can say that is has
become NYC-trendy. My "trendy" friends have been asking me for mix tapes
for the first time since the last Basement Jaxx album came out. There have
been articles in all of the "trendy" NYC papers and magazines about
"electroclash," Adult., Miss Kittin and the Hacker, etc.

I love how people still consider electro "trendy."
Funny cos it's been looked at this way since '96 or so.
Also, how people call electro "retro" or "80s"
but never label techno this way.
Funny, cos the root-shaping of BOTH of these subgenres took place in the
80s in one way or another.
Electriyin Mojo was never afraid to jump across genres, and he was
definetly revolutionary.
I like classic techno as much as the next person, but I cant disgard
electro by calling it "trendy" and pushing it aside.
I never understood this whole philosophy.
