well it's not detroit tchno, but all techno originates from detroit right?

I read in UK Vogue that there are now clubs orientated to
melancholia - one in Islington called Feeling Gloomy and another
called Loss run by the Last Tuesday Society. That's pretty cool. I
wonder if anyone had heard of them? They look a bit Sloanie to me,

In order to work that way, those artists had to be as good at running
a drum machine, synths, effects and a mixing board. They had to have
a definite idea of the sound they wanted. They had to know how to

certain plugins go a long way toward warming and fattening up music -
but if whatever it's affecting just isn't there in the first place,
it's not going to be the same. in recorded sound, the most important

source, and then by
still trying to get this one through...did some edits so we'll see.

Can't speak for the others, but I'm talking about a general trend
