rbs Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 I have noticed a lot of harder ruffer sounds, more high hats and definitely a lot of new electro house coming out. Looks like the new buzz. We'll see how long it lasts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pod Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 There's certainly a techno influence to other genres. It is much needed, since pure techno maybe has 20 fans here in Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pod Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 In those cities you see some crowd interaction to it thank god. Every techno event I've been to in Miami outside of WMC has maybe 3 people into it, and 17 bobbleheads surrounding the booth.House is my favorite through and through, but a little diversity never hurt anyone. The trick is as always is in the marketing of the event. I've found a lot of techno events around here take themselves way too seriously and scare off a lot of people by promoting themselves as "underground" or other terms along the lines of "we're too cool for the rest of y'all". What is needed (not just in techno, but in the scene as a whole) is more of a sense of throwing a party to have a great time, and not just for trainspotting and DJ critiquing. Yeah I hang around the DJ a lot, but that is part of my job description. Plus I wander out and fraternize with the ladies too.I've taken "less-informed" people to parties like this sometimes, and the reaction is "the music is fine, but the crowd sucks! They seem way too serious..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eKiTeL Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 a lot of techno is just too damn serious, and a lot of guys like it just because it's hard, and they need to express their testosterone, so sometimes it's hard to get women to go to techno parties, and everybody knows parties without women suck! whether you hook up or not, just having them there improves the vibe like 1500%!!!!!so with that said please check out my new Sexy, Sophisticated, Soulful, Spiritual Techno mix http://thcmiami.com/public/8.17.mp3(the name is a joke, the music is not) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard similar things from others about their friends so I'm not the only one. Dance music is supposedly friendly and uplifting. To me the more people that enjoy the party, the better.

Guest bcnjunkie Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 valid points all around. I'm neither bashing it or praising it. I'm not saying that we need a techno night (althought it would be nice). My favorite is house. What I'm saying is I'm noticing a lot more techno influence even in House productions. I hear DJ's dropping more techno oriented tracks and world-wide (that's why I listed all those cities) I'm seeing a rise in techno interest. POD is 100% right, crowds sometimes need to lighten up and have fun, the party isn't a party without having fun .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eKiTeL Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 yeah Cue dropped a very Techno-ish track at Blue on Wed. and the crowd went nuts, he called it a Techno track, but it wasn't, it was definitely house, the beat was all house, though the screaming synths were very Techno, definitely a strong Techno influence and the crowd loved it, keep it coming!

Guest pod Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 I've been to a few parties in the past few weeks and I've hauled ass since I've been bored out of my mind, despite the fact that the music was decent. The reason I left was that the crowd sucked. Numerically and in enthusiasm. Either that or they were too cool to express their love of their music.

Guest durrtylexx Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 it only makes sense...Techno will be huge in a year or so here in Miami...Like I've said before the people in Miami don't know shit, when it comes to music..Once Nocturnal opens up and Stryke becomes Miami's favorite. People will become Techo fans..The hard core sound will drive people mad..People want to go out, get high and go mad..It happened to Trance, once Edgar V stopped DJ'ing at Space and then Bellini started spinning everyone became House fans..People don't follow scenes down here they only care about looking cool and going to the cool places..The only music genre that will survive in Miami will be rap lol...

I'm not a big Techno fan, I hate the boom boom boom boom,.If you listen to Oscar and other DJ's they are putting more and more techno in their mixes..Miami's kids don't care about the music, they are told what to like...
