as i get older, i find it harder and harder to listen to nose-bleed
inducing bpms. it just sounds wrong to my ears now. thankfully, most
detroit techno ain't that fast, or sounds grand slowed down.

good to see jamie read on the tracklist. love LHAS and his album on fragmented

Strongly agree... especially from the viewpoint of dance music, some
tempos are too fast, unless you are going to jit or breakdance or
something... but that type of dancing, while fun, is not necessarily
good for bringing groups of people together and creating some type of
group consciousness that is bigger than the individuals. (Although, I
did play a Detroit electro / ghettotech set at like 145 that was uber
fun the other day at a friend's house party--amazing how well those
records aged everything I played sounded great still).

For me there is without question a spiritual component to music, and I
think that for the best spiritual vibe on the dancefloor, a vibe that
people can connect with regardless of whether they have ingested
intoxicants or know how to breakdance, 118-128 bpm is really where you
want to be. Even within that spectrum, these days for me it's actually
often a lot closer to 118 than 128. This means, unfortunately, it's
hard to play most actual Detroit techno. Of course, to me house and
techno are a continuum and the Detroit house I play often still has
that Detroit techno influence even if it would normally be sorted into
the house bin.
