Global muzik/Liberty drum
Back at mayday/gatecrasher
Verdi
Prendi & scappa
Pegasus
Underground
Eclectic
Bug
Trasponder
Baguette
Isn't this techno??
On his new album, Back to Cali is the only trance tune
Picotto should NEVER be associated with Techno as this is NOT what he produces, it a watered down version of the good stuff. And as for the reference about BXR - why would he get off the label he helps to run??
BTW - I LOVE Picotto, more than you'd know, I just don't like it when people have false impressions of Him.
And Push Remix of Back to Cali? - BRING IT ON!!
Im afraid he is..... And thats coming from some-one who cant stand the man... Actually he is pretty kool

I know for a fact that Picotto Plays Techno almost exclusively these days, he is however NOT a techno DJ. Playing Tech tunes like a trance DJ doesn't make you a Techno DJ, it makes you a Trance DJ that plays Techno.
And I'll reiterate the fact that I love Picotto, and I love Techno, I know what I'm talking about...

What I have actually said is that Playing Techno Records does not make you a Techno DJ, I'm not saying that Liebing, speedy etc are 'trance' DJ's.
Picotto plays TECHNO records - LIKE a trance DJ, ie first 8 bars mixed into the last 8 bars of the previous, he plays all of his tunes in a flat 'trance' way, and not cutting and mixing like a TECHNO DJ - therefore he is NOT a Techno DJ - period.

it seems odd to me that you can write the name of Chris Liebing and 'picotto' in the same post Chris Liebing is a techno dj... picotto is not.

If Picotto spins techno 99% of the time now in his sets, he's a techno DJ. And maybe ure not listening to his mixing properly coz its VERY different to the likes of other trance DJ's

Er... getting back on topic...
I heard this on Armin's show, Episode 51. Its crazy! I notice he used the same instrument as in The Legacy. The Original Mix of Back To Cali was pretty happy and uplifting, Push's remix kinda changes that to a somewhat progressive kinda of tune. I prefer the Original Mix, over Push!

no... he is not... his comments are 100% accurate.. but the only way that you can understand them if you have knowledge of and love of techno...
picotto plays techno records.... i can guarantee 25% of his set will be Chris Liebing.
however
picotto is not a 'techno dj' and should not be associated with techno. on the whole.. he is NOT associated with techno.
when was the last time Chris Liebing or DJ Rush played a picotto record ?? it just doesnt happen.
