ooooo....don't think that'll go over well with the heads in detroit. Don't want to get into the whole elitism thing again, but....guess heads will have to except that our "underground scene" will eventually be a POP-MTV-CEO controlled genre....if it becomes the next hip hop. I mean...I LOVE hiphop...but it's getting a little too...well...MTV!!
Personally, I think that keeping things the way they are is one way to keep some quality control on things. After all...a lot of hiphop is ABOUT the $$...can't think of any techno that is....well...MAYBE GhettoTek....but that's more about THAT ASS!!! haha ...unleash the comments..... d$ -----Original Message----- From: Kent williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 05, 2003 10:43 AM To: Alex Bates Cc: a; 313 Detroit Subject: (313) heads-only techno? nah Heh. I don't know who those people are; I'd like Techno to be the next hip hop. While there's nothing like the vibe of a party where everyone there is well into the music, but economically the audience needs to expand or it's just going to be a hobby for all but a few people lucky enough to make a living at it. Wait, I think that's pretty much the case now.
