Oh, John Gaiser is definitely minimal. I should have seperated my ideas better in what I wrote.

Jon Gaiser live!

Pft. Thta's the beauty of techno! The repetitive pounding!! Back in 04 and 05 I'd have strongly disagree... and indeed said it was what I hated MOST abouto techno...

but since have my revelation in 06 and coming to my proper senses Ive seen the beauty and pure aural bliss that is techno!

See sig - * TECHNO IS THE BEST NOISE ON EARTH! *

OLD Liebing! San! Kroecher! Hmmmm... The Drummer and Liberator are good hard techno IMO too.

You'll like the Aria ones I posted for sure.

Another thing about minimal - I find minimal too sleepy when it's really slow or when it's on a shit sound system. Minimal is absolutely mind bending when you hear it somewhere like Stereo - you don't need the peripheral sounds of the harder techno to really feel that the music is "complete" (for lack of a better word).

I wish minimal techno had been more popular when boa was around...sometimes I still listen to tracks and fantasize about what it would have sounded like on that system.

Why? the sound was shit there.

Nothing else comes close to sounding as good on a top notch system as minimal does. It's quite amazing how much of a difference there is between a good sound system and a mediocre one. It's like night and day.

I just loved everything about Systemsoundbar... Also i'd prefer to listen to a Minimal set in a darker and smaller environment than somewhere like Boa ... (thou i loved Boa )

Posted by Jben on Jan-09-2008 06:25:

Loving it! dark, creepy, melodic variety is alway great.

Posted by miamitrance04 on Jan-09-2008 06:36:

i'm addicted to minimal, love everything about it. its weird because i used to hate on it. pretty much all i'm listening to for the last 3 months or so. The December Audiojack promo of their website is AWESOME!! I highly recommend to download it.

You suck. I guess you need to hear Luciano or Ricardo (not sure which one, probably Luciano) dropping it on the Amnesia Terrace to understand its significance.

No doubt the beatport clip doesn't really have the same effect. It just reminds me a lot of other tracks by folks like Ripperton and Adultnapper, but with a big crazy sound in the middle to add crowd pleasing effect...
