Why don't more DJ's play Marionette?

Seriously, I mean seriously. If you're playing a legit techno set, why not drop Marionette and blow some minds? I also think DJs need to play more classics in general because its somewhat difficult to play only "new" music and have it not get stale after a couple of hours.

There's no way you can fit that track in a modern techno set, unless you play it as a last track or in a really druggy extended afterhours set. Besides, techno DJs play plenty of old tracks and classics, although most people probably won't recognize them.

Because minimal techno is, thankfully, no longer popular.

Because it's one of the prime minimal techno records of the 2000's?
