Originally posted by Dj O'Callaghan He plays Italian Techno like Mario Piu, Joy Kikitoni, Ricky Effe, Marco Zafferano, Bishmark etc he does occasionally play some what I would call Tech Trance tunes, he however more or less plays a sub genre of techno, Italian Techno hence the BXR mob who I named above.

What a load of shit.. For one Ricky doesnt even DJ, secondly. Picotto has nothing to do with BXR any more, and thridly, if you think he is anything like Mario Piu Im guessing you've never heard him DJ before

A: *sigh* Tekno, are you deaf? B: Oh techno, I thought you said Tekno. A: I did say Tekno. B: But you just said Techno! A: What?

LMFAO


as for this discussion.....When I think of Techno Picotto is one of the last names that pop up in my mind. Which doesn't mean he's bad..Ive seen him 2 years ago and it was bangin as hell...yet he's not an established Techno guy like Cox, Hawtin, Mills and.say..Garnier

Btw. Liebing, Rush and Umek are wholeheartedly detested by any fan of the aforementioned DJs.

it don't matter to me what style picotto is even though its a techno trance style it's always bangin and fuckin awesome!!!

His sets are the best!!! Always expect the unexpected.

Picotto is a crappy excuse for a techno dj

If you're gonna play techno, play it properly

If you say so

*sigh*

Picotto's not a techno DJ. Nor does he want to be known as one. If your such a coneseuer of Music why are you not making his money?? Or 95% of echno DJs for that matter??

Listen to live in ibiza then tell me how many techno djs have played those tunes.

He plays techno records allbeit old ones but he mixes like a trance DJ. he made his name with tunes like lizard, iguana etc...

Now hes playing techno and bringing it to the masses but techno was not made to be played like a trance dj. Go listen to beyer, umek, miss kittin etc... be fore yo start giving me shit.

Live in Ibiza is an old mix... Thats why the tunes are old sounding.

I listen to almost any Techno DJ in the world, Slam are residents in no less than 3 clubs within 20 miles of me. I know what good techno is and I know what a good Techno DJ is. Tell this? If Picotto mixes like a trance DJ then how do you explain two of the worlds greatest techno DJS(GARNIER AND VATH) also mixing the same way??

imo vath is poor, but hes a pioneer, its like jules, he has great respect coz he was 1 of the 1st, but in comparison now, he doesn't cut it. Thats my view on vath aswell. I've seen picotto out and his mixing is dodgey to say the least. He gets too much respect for what he does purely coz hes a big name.

His sets bore me theres nothing that grabs me, whereas seeing umek for example was something quite special.

What I meant by live in ibiza was that techno djs have been playing a lot of those tunes way before the summer, when that was recorded.

This thread is so amusing

any picotto thread is a laugh for me imo

i have to agree with Don/Gio.....listen to what he is saying, mauro himself doesnt say he plays techno when i talked to him..he said he spins a lot of techno since there are more quality prodcutions in this genre but he said he will play a good trance, house or prog song if he likes it and he has at many times....he doesnt want to be catergorized as a techno dj like Gio said...he plays good music to get the crowd going....like i said before some like him others hate him

Originally posted by Acid Junkie that's it! i refuse to comment this... the whole thing that u are talking about just doesn't make any sense... some ultra-underground people that look like heavy metal lovers and rave to something they call tekno but never techno... dj's and producers that are so underground that only a bunch of punks know about them yeah whatever dude, "y'know i listen to tekno a lot... what that? no, i didn't say techno, it's tekno... no, they are not the same; tekno is underground techno... shut up, i know what i'm saying."

I can't make it anymore clear than I have already done. I understand why you're laughing at me and my whole story. But I don't really care. We have different opinions on this. You say it's a question of spelling, I say it isn't just a question of spelling. For me tekno and techno still stay 2 separate music styles (although they have things in common).

Fair enough mate, but armin says he isn't a trance dj. lol

I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about. All I did was saying there is a difference between techno and tekno. And that it's not a question of spelling. I did some research, came up with the facts and arguments to point out the difference. Is that pretending I know much? Hell no man. I'm trying to make a contribution here by answering questions, clearing things up. I never meant to post so it looks as if I knew a lot. As a matter of fact I don't know enough about the difference otherwise I could've come up with more arguments (such as representative artists/tracks). But I posted what I knew and it's up to you guys to judge it right. I don't care if you believe it or not, I just posted my view on the whole thing. You can quote me or laugh at me, do what you wanna do. I said what I thought/knew about it and that's it

This is great!

same goes for paul, and tiesto too....when you see them live doing a 2hr or a 4hr set they dotn simply play trance...they play differnt gernes...armin plays prog too, tiesto plays prog,trance and techno and paul plays "trance" some electro and techno


IF a dj stick to one genre he has to be stupid sicne he/she will be missing out on soo many quality tunes...people need to stop being soo narrow minded and start accepting other genres than just trance

AMEN!!!

When I've seen or heared picotto hes just played techno all the way through.

Fundamentally although they don't like to admit it, Armin is a trance dj, granted he doesn't always play trance but thats what he is know for. Picotto plays techno but in a very amature way imo.

were you able to ID all the tracks mauro played? if not how could you tell if it was a house song played at +5 or a techno song played at -2 or a damn prog song played at +4....most of maruos sets have many IDs in it and its not pure techno....

but to end this convo mauro isnt techno he doesnt consider himself to any genre, he palys what he likes....its stupid to catergorize

muhahahahha

LOL

lol coz I'm not fucking clueless! I could Id many actually, stuff like off the ceiling, benozal, gatex, birmingham, sound identification etc...

I can assure you if it was prog or house played that fast I'd be laughing a lot harder at him than I am now
