Anyway for what it's worth, my relationship with techno and all the 4/4 music that it spawned over the decades (oh no it's plural now) has always been of the love/hate variety. What I love about early 90's techno is that it wasn't so easy to pigeon hole it. The other thing I love about early 90's techno is it didn't have all those lovey-dovey airy-fairy vapid vocals... nor those irritating snare build ups. Best, James. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
