Hey.... Don't knock Boring, Oregon (yes it's a real city in Oregon) unless you've been there. It's got some great swimming holes. I have to say that Model 500's Time Space Tranmat song, sounds just as good out there, as it does in the inner city :)
Too me , Techno is a people thing, not a city thing or a big city thing. It's about many things, among them deprogramming the programming. People in Boring as well as Portland, Berlin, NY, Detroit, etc... need deprogramming just as much or more then those city folks. I think one should do techno(what ever do techno is to you) no matter where one is. I don't stop enjoying Techno any less up in on Mount Hood then I do in a dirty warehouse. Actually many times, I enjoy it more. Cheers...
