scissorlocked: Is It Techno?

geasoftime 04.11.13	8 is not techno. Techno is a derogatory term for house music.
Disrupt 04.11.13	Very good list
scissorlocked 04.11.13	mehhh, techno isnt so derogatory
mindleviticus 04.11.13	House and techno are two seperate genres, although techno did originate from a few other genres and one of them was house.
Mookid 04.11.13	9 is amazing, major props for that His latest album and his 2nd album might be my favorite though..

clercqie 04.11.13	Never heard of 1. What style is it? "Techno is a derogatory term for house music." What is this nonsense?

scissorlocked 04.11.13	@ clercqie calling it fluid proto-techno with subtle ambiance and futuristic ventures would kinda do it some justice
liberi 04.11.13	reference checks out
clercqie 04.11.13	Haha, sweet description. Checking out the first track on the album right now, and it's definitely interesting.
treeqt. 04.11.13	"Techno is a derogatory term for house music." top lel
geasoftime 04.11.13	Well, everyone I know uses "techno" like a curse. Regardless though, Autechre is IDM.
clercqie 04.11.13	Just because some kids in your neighbourhood call Guetta techno, doesn't mean real techno music (Shed 4 life) is crap. And I have no trouble calling Autechre something like "abstract techno", because in essence that's what Confield is. Although IDM has a nice ring to it (like, say, future garage), it's a faux genre.
geasoftime 04.11.13	IDM is not a faux genre. It doesn't matter if you don't like the name and what it implies. It is absolutely established. And that's not how it is at all. Techno is frequently used as an umbrella term for all electronica, especially by people who don't know anything about it. "You listening to techno?" So, it's become synonymous with simple electronic music in Boston. Techno is a commonly used derogatory term here. I guess it hasn't caught on elsewhere.
geasoftime 04.11.13	Honestly, I don't even care though. Call Autechre progressive rock for all it matters to me.
treeqt. 04.11.13	and people call bmth screamo or btbam good, but that doesn't make it any more right techno is NOT a derogatory term for house music, that is a fact. it actually is much more of a definite term than IDM is.
geasoftime 04.11.13	IDM is a definite genre. Just because artists try to distance themselves from it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Plenty of deathcore groups dont want to be called deathcore, but they're going to be no matter what they say. IDM has a distinct sound, and to say that it isn't a genre is lunacy. And I'm still going to use techno as a derogatory term, because the music it represents fucking sucks so it really doesn't make much of a difference. Let me spell it out: Techno sucks. Autechre doesn't suck. Autechre ≠ techno.
treeqt. 04.11.13	you obviously don't know anything about electronic music
geasoftime 04.11.13	House, dance, techno, garage, jungle, dubstep all suck. Come at me.
geasoftime 04.11.13	Yeah, I don't know anything about Moby if that's what you're trying to say.
treeqt. 04.11.13	epik :)
clercqie 04.11.13	Lol, get a load of this guy. As if we needed another narrow-minded prick on Sputnik.
geasoftime 04.11.13	IDM is the king of electronic music. Glitch is the queen. And Ambient is the heir apparent. All you Burial fanboys bow before the throne.
geasoftime 04.11.13	ALL HAIL IDM
Yotimi 04.11.13	Techno is a genre. Many not in the know use it incorrectly. That doesn't change the fact that it is a real thing. IDM is a genre. Many that make IDM don't like what the name implies. But it is an established genre. Both are genres. Both have great artists representing them. Electronic 101 with Yotimi.
geasoftime 04.11.13	/trolling
treeqt. 04.11.13	epik :)
geasoftime 04.11.13	epik = everybody perceives IDM king ? I'm glad you've seen sense, ilovetree. Welcome back into the fold.
Adash 04.12.13	Drexciya is an underwater realm populated by the babies of pregnant women thrown off slave ships who evolved to breathe underwater IDM a genre for white boy battymen with little to no groove
Ovrot 04.12.13	i think you mean electronica
MisterTornado 04.12.13	music is music fuck all
mindleviticus 04.13.13	lol @clercqie for thinking IDM is a faux genre. Dude, c'mon now, you're smarter than that.
