trance will come back before techno blows up...

techno is alive and kicking and its kicking everyone's ass at the moment .. look at anyone's chart and they are playing some sort of techno record.

kill it with what? techno? house? breaks?

that is the million dollar question..

Actually I think it did run it's course about a year ago and fell off...acid house came back on the scene this last year and killed it and now for some strange reason electro is making a small charge again into the scene...only this time instead of using the electro pop-synth samples of the 80's...its rock n’ roll electro...it will die off very soon...most of the productions are simple cookie cutter tracks that are mind numbingly alike.

acid never died. it's just more pravalent now.

Man, you are so behind the times. Aquabooty helped promote "Return to New York" 3 conferences ago. 90% was electro.

The retro thing starting kicking a couple of years before that.

Bands like A.R.E. weapons was one of the first bands that kinda broke the sound back out.

Ironically, Tomas (of San Frandisco Wicked Crew fame) was one of the orchestraters.

Of course, Tommie Sunshine (dustraxx/ zylophone jones) also started banging out electro about 6 yeras ago. His buddy, Felix the housecat came on board a few years later, passing them all over with his crossover hit album.

I like the scene because it is a smooth buffer for those "anti-dj" types to get comfortable with dj's and house music.

I do feel it is a trend, but it will probably go a little underground once it gets played out. It is here to stay.

I guess we will all see what happens.

Ya for sure - I was speaking in the general sense though - mainstream if you will....meaning it came full circle this last year and was more noticed because some of the bigger name jocks started to hammer it - but other lesser known (underground house Djs of sorts) had been playing this in some capacity all along going years back...ie Hardfloor, Justin Long, Dan X...Derrick...etc. I do think a lot of the acid being put out by some of the jocks new to the genre currently is waaaay too watered down and minimal...acid in essence is suppose to sound raw and gritty and analog...not so polished....at least thats my take on it.

tommie is the man

too electro now for me as a whole when he plays out. I'd love to have him play a house set (as he did @b maximus 8 years ago) the man knows music, especially beats and drumming. also, if you meet the cat, he is off the scale cool. def a rock star w/ out a band. i think hes gonna make it huge some day, out of the underground. felix level or higher maybe. we'll see.

if you are where he's at, check it out. expect electro and more

and crazy glasses and beard and long hair and. . . .

Ya I agree.....I remember electro blowing up in 2002-2003....even at conference 2003...electro parties were the buzz...

Tommie Sunshine, Felix, Junior Sanchez, Peaches, Larry Tee, Princess Superstar...Avenue D!!!

Remember.....http://www.avenued.com/

I love "2D2F" Funny as hell...

But since then it really fell off... even in Atlanta there was a high demand for Electro/ euro trash/ trendy parties...now it's unheard of

so make techno the new electro....

NEVER.

I am a huge fan of electro house if it's not the same ol' tracks. There are many, many electroclash tracks that can be totally spun into house and they are not 80's remixes. I love Soulwax's E-talking (ft Nancy Whang) which is a rock song remixed and reproduced. So it's not always the 80's remixed or the indie rock records with a little funky house sound. There are a whole mess of artist that do this sound and I couldn't see a better pair get together. When I play house, I always hear the right moment to mix in an electro track for the funk of it.

What most of you don't realize or have not stated is that the Electro thing already is gone from the "house" realm and into Drum & Bass..

Most producers that pioneered the sound have moved on renouncing it... and now only the D&B producers are using that 80's electro sound...

It will always have some re-occurance anywhere dance music is played but it's high time has come and is going, goin', gone 8)
