System-J and Nefardec's debating in the Joris Voorn thread made me wanna start this thread.. here's a bunch of tracks that are on the fence between prog house and techno.

just looking at the names i can tell you there's no 'pure' techno there. it looks like mostly progressive house with techno-esque samples.

Didn't the dance music industry itself create the word "Techno" for edm as a whole by mashing out hundreds of Trance compilations that have the word "Techno" in the name?

I don't think so, do you have any examples? Trance kind of got this "treatment" from the first Trancemaster-series which contained everything from ambient to acid house and dnb. Not sure about techno though.
