This thread was inspired by the North american Sven appreciation thread that got closed.Although i dont speak German, I've been looking at this section of the board and actually wondering what the German tastesin electronic music are like today.Montreal used to be a huge techno town, and right now is more more progressive house/electro.Other than trance, what is biggest in the clubs there.Going to see Alex Bau here next week, now all we need is liebing beyer and vath

Sorry for the english, but your input would be appreciated.Europes sounds are very different and i like to explore tham as well.
Cheers and Danken

montreal > detroit

detroit is the nearstes where canadians can get chris liebing for the moment. years ago I met people from chicago/detroit, they told me they'll do partytravelling within north america and canada like some gta's do in europe too.

I have seen Liebing a few times here...Such energy, and i love how he searches thew crowd for people to pass him joints.He played at Swirl here last year and for many it was the set of the year.The problem is that Montreal used to book many Techno Dj's and the price for their bookings is now insane.We also had our tech scene get big here through local artists like Pheek,Matteo Murphy,Preach,Mistress Barbara...
but tech is changing.

I saw Speedy J do a live PA set at aria(an afterhours club here)a few years back and it was amazing.Alex Bau is releasing a Live @ Aria CD comp, but i dont think its on the CL label.

Montreal has a more active scene than Detroit, but Detroit remains the capital of tech in North america, because of the movement that Hawtin and others started there.We have a festival called Mutek here every year, that has artists do live acts via laptop its amazing.I am really looking forward to Germany's Modeselektor.Also a big outdoor piknik with Hawtin and Villalbos coming soon.

Keep your input coming Germany...im very interested in visiting your country and would like to know as much as i can.Trance is dead here..Toronto is the North American capital for Trance.

Danken again.
Feel free to teach me a few useful German words

yea, whatever rocks his boat! good for business and popularity, i guess. czech is not too far away ... but i'm sure you can find him pretty much anywhere in germany's backyard. sven and chris liebing would be great...just need to find out when & where.

...i'll teach you some bavarian if you want!
