For house, I agree that marathon sets are better. For techno, I'd say short sets are better. The best techno sets I've heard have been 2-3 hours long. One of the best hard techno sets I've heard was a 1 hour set by a French DJ named Scan X.

Ahh, no! It's incredible to hear what techno DJs can pull out over a long set...it's interesting to see/hear where their other musical tastes lie.

The best sets I've heard from Richie have been the longer sets...4+ hours.

I'm talking proper techno like Jeff Mills, etc. Usually when techno DJs play longer sets, they end up playing a lot of house too. In that case, it's more interesting to hear a longer set, but it's usually not what I would classify as a techno set.

lol. Yoji is not a DJ you'd want to see doing a marathon set.

His style is good enough for 2 hrs and that's it.

anything less than 4 hours of Yoji is a tease. I would love a marathon Yoji set.
