I am. You are not.



It was old ten years ago, sheep.




So what?


How about you, for once, get over the fact that people are calling this crap 'electro' and start being constructive?

That's not very useful. Why don't you help me help you. Help me help you. Help ME help YOU. On a scale of zero to one-hundred, zero being the least constructive and one-hundred being the most constructive, how constructive would you like me to be? Here, I drew you a constructive scale to show you what I mean:

Don't thank me. MS Paint helped me help you help me.

One can only hope it's on the way out. I, for one, hope it ends up aping minimalism and making a fool of itself in the process.

Time to start paying attention to techno. Big things are happening when the word "trance" is no longer taboo.

+1. Is it losing popularity? Yes. Are elements of it being incorporated into other things, without having a "1 John Dahlback release every 20 minutes" minimum? Yes. It's not going to die and it's not going to be as overwhelmingly used as it was. There are more than 2 possibilities.

+1, i need more subsky and creamer & k

First, thank you for comparing 2 different tracks.. one of which is BREAKBEAT! Secondly, thanks for pointing out the need to have to spell it out: the new stuff (ie: the whole farting bassline sound, not the glitchy weird minimal shit) doesn't sound much like Kraftwerk. Take Freeform 5 - No more conversations (mylo rmx) for example.. one of the biggest anthems of this modern electro.. and compare that with kraftwerk.

thanks for the brilliant insight! Tiring to have to point out the obvious, but we are talking about this RECENT resurgence of electro and current form of it which isn't just going to disappear tomorrow.
