Hi

Good point. I tend to think of the music I'm into as
techno (Detroit stuff, Trapez, Perlon, etc) but
techno's kind of a dirty word around these parts
(because it's been subsumed by the hard monotonous
European variety of techno), so when I'm asked what I
play I say deep electronic house (or sometimes minimal
house, but then minimal's kind of a dirty word too).
At the end of the day techno and house are two ends of
a spectrum, and the distinction is sometimes difficult
to make. Do you think techno as originally defined and
produced by Juan Atkins would be considered techno if
released today? I think it'd probably be called deep
house. But I guess most of Rob Hood's stuff is very
clearly techno, the Nighttime World albums excepted.
And I haven't actually heard the Peacefrog album yet.

Cheers

Chris

Hi 

I think the is it house or is it techno thing isn't
really that important. There's lots of bad techno, and
even more bad house, but good house and good techno
are to me almost the same thing (I don't know what the
word is for it, and I guess it doesn't matter). I do
think, though, like politics in most Western
democracies, that the middle ground has shifted to the
right. Maybe the term techno needs to be reclaimed by
the deeper producers -- and maybe I should say happily
that the stuff I play is techno. I read somewhere that
Herbert considers his music to be techno...

Cheers

Chris

funny this should come up. I friend of mine, who was born and raised in
Detroit but has been living in California for the past 10 years, came to
visit Detroit for his High School reunion recently. I took him to some of
the hot clubs and parties around town and he asked me later so tell me
something... when did house and techno become 2 different scenes?
He'd come up in the early Detroit club days of the Music Institute, City
Club, ect. and wasnt around to see the gradual polarization of the 2 scenes.
it was pretty eye opening.

House is based on song forms, techno is not.  It's more like through 
composed.  
I recently posted something to the IDM group regarding a similar idea - vocal 
club tracks: 

 It reminds me of the classic criticism of opera:  The words and the song 
form slow down the action of the drama. 

I get the same feeling about a lot of vocal club music.   The vocal part 
slows down the energy of the trance/techno sounds.  (Maybe it's expectations 
of what those sounds/rhythms are capable of?)
 
Techno and trance have a very different feeling than house  and one of the 
big things that make it different is  the nonreliance on the voice and vocal 
forms.

I'm not talking about vocal snipets, like ya baby, or take me higher.  
I'm talking about a song form like intro, verse and chorus kinda stuff.  
Where the form of the track is determined by verse and chorus repetitions- 
something that you usually don't find in techno - and I know there are 
exceptions. 
 
I'm just hearing  more and more vocal tracks that are trying to blend techno 
and trance sounds with a vocal track.   Is there a commercial reason for 
these vocal tracks?   Like you have a better chance to break into the top 40 
with a vocal track?   

Any Ideas?

Re: [313] techno/house divide

2002-08-04 Thread Kent williams
I live in Iowa, and the best local DJs have always built sets from techno
AND house records.  Because of eastern Iowa's proximity to Chicago, house
music has been popular in the underground scene for 14 or 15 years -- there's
a continual two way traffic between Chicago and Iowa, people bringing records
home, people moving to Chicago, etc.

But it seems like the #1 criterion for playing a record is that it be a
great track that ignites the dancefloor, and not where it was produced.

The most interesting music being produced at any point defies easy
categorization -- there's loads of brilliant tech house being made right
now. Which is to say that it's minimal, not based on RB, but has that
little swingskip feel of house music.

Iowa City is also a place where it actually works to do a show with Hip Hop,
IDM, House, and Experimental music all on the same bill.  The biggest hip hop
heads in town love a good set of techno  house music, and the art students
out for a noise artists will even drop their ironic detachment for a minute
for a good DJ. It really is all music.

DEMF 2002 proved to me exhaustively that dance music monocultures are a drag.
As much as I like hard banging techno, I like it a hell of a lot more when
it's not all I hear for days ...
